Prophet Owuor Biography
Born in 1966 to Hezekiah and Margaret Ochieng, in Goma village, Usenge in Bondo District, Kenya, David Owuor, popularly known as Prophet Owuor is the second child in a family of six girls and three boys. Born into a Christian home, Owuor grew up knowing about God through his mother who a devoted Christian, a housewife and a peasant farmer. His father, a civil servant worked with East African Community Prison Service where he rose in ranks to a Sergeant Major.
Coming from a family who knew the importance of education, Owuor started schooling at an early age. He first went to Wambasa Primary School in Yimbo but had to move to other schools where his father was transferred to as a civil servant. These schools include Jusa, Luzira and Kitalya in Uganda. He later joined Mbale Senior Secondary School where he obtained his ‘O’ level before proceeding to St. Peters College in Tororo to obtain his ‘A’ levels certificate.
Like his early school year, Owuor’s tertiary education was done in three different universities. He joined Makerere University for a Bachelor of Science degree but later moved to the University of Nairobi where he completed his first degree in 1988. The following year, he joined the Ben Gurion University of the Negev in Israel for his Ph.D in Molecular Genetics, otherwise known as the “Science of the Future”. While doing this, he began to prepare for his journey as a preacher and prophet of God.
Owuor encountered God in 1987 at the time when Uganda was in political turmoil. As a preacher, he centred his messages on repentance and the need for man to prepare for the Second Coming of Christ. Owuor became popular as a preacher in 2002 after the Kenyan elections. He was not just known as a common preacher, but as one who is gifted with healing powers and can foretell the future.
Prophet Owuor Wife and Family
Prophet Owuor’s life is no doubt shrouded in mystery. He is one of the most recognized prophets in the world. The reception he receives everywhere he goes says it all. Funny enough, the prophet is without a wife or family. The preacher defended why he is not yet married, saying that his calling had not availed him the opportunity to do so. Having a family, he said, will tie him down and he may not be able to follow the will of God.
Nonetheless, the preacher had revealed that he had a son in Israel and had wanted to marry the mother but that he moved to the US and the girl refused to go with him. He also said that while in the US, he also cohabited but the woman left after he started seeing visions.
He was once married to a white woman but told the lady to chose between staying with him and being lonely.
The lady chose to leave.
They had have a son together
