Lwasa made the hilarious revelation while responding to Kasuku, who wanted him to meet the Bishop of Masaka Diocese, Rt. Reverend Severus Jjumba, so that he could also pray for him.
The prayer session between Pastor Aloysius Bugingo and troubled businessman Emmanuel Lwasa was so intense that the latter thought the huge Bible the pastor put on his head while praying for him was going to sink in it.

It was Kasuku, real name Isaac Daniel Katende, who took Lwasa to meet Pastor Bugingo in April.
While praying for Lwasa, Bugingo said he prayed for the beleaguered tycoon from the same spot where Jose Chameleone knelt when his stage for the Ggwanga Mujje concert collapsed.

Just as Chameleone was able to hold a successful concert, the pastor assured Emmanuel Lwasa that his problems would be solved.
He prayed for him to overcome the challenges he was facing, and Lwasa said he was now born-again.
Some two weeks after meeting Bugingo, Emmanuel Lwasa was given Shs10 million by Don Chris of Skypinz Tours & Travel to help him recover his assets.
But the money was too little to make any change, considering the bank demanded close to a billion shillings from him.
He told Kasuku that he used the money on personal expenses and it was gone in a day.

Chris was supposed to add another Shs18 million, but he didn't make good on his promise.
Emmanuel Lwasa said that many people have prayed for him.
He said the bank hasn't repossessed his three-story building that houses Club Tavern Kick at Kyabakuza Township along the Masaka-Mbarara Highway, and he still has keys to it.
He is hopeful that the president will intervene and give him the cash to clear the loan.
