Oh, you didn't even quote the best line!

"Born Alice Auma, she adopted the name Lakwena -- messenger -- after she 
reported being possessed by the spirit of an Italian soldier during a 
mythical 40-day immersion in the Nile, enhancing her spiritual appeal."

_So_ much in that statement alone.  If I immerse myself in the Nile for 
40 days, I damn well better get possessed by something other than an 
Italian soldier.  What kind of reputation do they have in Uganda?  I 
know the French consider the Italians the romantic ideal, but this is a 
bit of a stretch.
