A
middle-aged woman alleged to be a witch in Ughelli South local
government area of Delta (name withheld) on Friday evening confessed to
using her urine to mix the beans with which she prepared moi-moi which
she sold to members of the public as well as fed family members with.
LeadershipNG
reports that the woman, well-known in the community for her beauty and
well-prepared meals especially her moi-moi that she sold to unsuspecting
members of the public, allegedly confessed when she was almost lynched
by an angry mob over allegations by a young man in the area that she
planned to kill him with her witchcraft.
It was gathered that the young man was about taking his bath in the bathroom when a rat almost hit
him
on the leg. On seeing the rat, he picked a piece of wood and kill it,
but instead of beating a retreat, the rat allegedly increased in size,
eventually turning into a human being before disappearing, leaving two
slippers behind.
The young man was said to have gone to town with
the tale, and on getting to the house of the alleged witch, popularly
called MamaT, he was said to have seen the woman surrounded by a angry
crowd who descended on her.
Eyewitness said some parts of the
woman’s body were swollen, as she was made to put on a pair of slippers,
and realizing the slippers were similar to those left behind by the
rat, the young man screamed,
“Madam, why are you
putting on the same slippers, and why is your body swollen?” And she
replied, “I had an accident yesterday where I sustained some injuries
and lost one of my slippers.”
Suspecting the woman was
the rat that turned to a human being in his bathroom, the young man
narated his story to the crowd, while appealing to them to allow him get
the slippers that the rat left behind in his house.
By the time
he returned and showed the people the single pair of slippers, it was
exactly the same with the one on the woman’s foot.
This left the
angry mob with no option than to beat her to stupor, before she
confessed to litany of atrocities she had committed, while confessing
that all through the years, she had been selling moi-moi she used her
urine from her coven to prepare.
