NAIROBI (Reuters) - Tanzania's President Jakaya Kikwete has condemned witchdoctors who kill albinos and harvest their body parts in the hope it will bring prosperity.
"Sometimes, word spreads around that body parts of people with certain physical attributes like bald people or albinos contribute greatly to attaining quick prosperity," Kikwete said in a monthly state of the nation speech late on Wednesday.
"These killings are shameful and distressing to our society," he added.
Reports that the witch doctors had been watching tapes of Barak Obama's pastor Jeremiah Wright were unconfirmed as of this writing.
