In an extraordinary and shocking incident in the village of Nyalubanga, Lwezela Ward, Geita District, residents have found themselves in a state of astonishment and confusion after a child reportedly declared dead ten years ago was found alive.
The child, known as Mashaka Kasim, was said to have died in 2015 at the age of one year and four months due to what was claimed to be a severe fever. After his death, he was buried near the family's home, and life continued as normal for Mzee Kasim's family.
However, the situation changed suddenly on July 10, 2025, when the family and neighbors clearly saw the child appearing outside their house—in the very same area where he is said to have been buried ten years earlier. The event left the entire community stunned and prompted serious questions about what really happened.
