Self-confessed Witch Escapes Lynching by Phate07(m): 7:37pm On Jan 19, 2011


A self-confessed witch escaped lynching by an angry mob in Lagos suburb.
undecided undecided



Residents of Gowon Estate area of Lagos woke early Tuesday to the startling discovery of a young lady on the roof of a three-story building.

The lady, who refused to give
her name, claimed she was a
witch on a mission. She further revealed that she flew from Obubra in Cross River State, to afflict her victim with epilepsy in Lagos. However, her supposed mission was not accomplished because, according to her, on
reaching 4 Iwajuwa Street, dogs in the area started barking, resulting in her losing her balance in the air.

The loud bang on the roof of the three-story building was said to have jolted the tenants from sleep at about 3am. Occupants of the building, who said they mistook the sound as an explosion, could, however,
not come out to ascertain the cause of the sound until 5am, when they reportedly heard a strange noise from the top of the building.

The unidentified lady was thereafter brought down where she reportedly
revealed her mission, following which an angry mob descended on her. She later turned violent, throwing stones and dangerous objects. At this stage, the onlookers took to their heels, with mothers calling out to their
children to leave the scene. But
some brave young men were
able to disarm her and were at
the verge of lynching her when police officers from Gowon Estate arrived and took her away.

Witches exist?

Really?


Why she no send the epilepsy from her village, why she travel using modern[i] technorogy[/i]? She no sabi fly?

Abeg make you, the boy and the OP carry go. No such thing as witches - Well not in the context una believe am to be.



PS
There is no proof she was flying. Even if she was, it makes no sense that barking dogs can bring her down mid-flight. All na non-sense.

Schizophrenia - Nigerians should learn the word.

I never understood how 'witches' could fly and kill their victims, but when caught they all of a sudden lose their powers, at the most important time for them. They better be sure the girl is not part of Boko Haram if this is even a true story.

No offence to the poster, but this story is a. . .

Crock of s#*t. Click the link and look at the picture of "the witch." It's a guy.

Even without doing that, you can tell the whole story lacks objectivity and the incident, if it happened, is not believable at retold here. Disgraceful. If the writer is the same Patience Ogbo that wrote "The Shanty Boy," no wonder no one can get her to follow up on the little boy and give us updates. Really poor "journalism."

^^^ The witch is a woman, but when photographed, the final outcome shows her as a man. You will need a magic camera to capture her as a woman lol.
