Busia man buys third coffin while awaiting death

Alloys Ominangombe stands beside his coffin.

Alloys Ominangombe cuts the figure of a man at peace with himself and the world.

In 2006, Ominangombe shocked residents of Okatekok village in Teso South, Busia, when he bought himself a coffin, not because he was ailing or on the verge of death, but because he was being cautious and preparing for the inevitable.
