Had it been that there's a strict punishment for those that had been killing and burning people, this won't have happened. Well, I hope the law will do justice to them accordingly.

Muslims are Wicked and there is no atom of God fearing in them. Avoid them in 2023 election. Else you will regret it.

what nonsense are you talking about?
If it's true she's a witch then she deserved everything that came to her. Our God and creator, Yahweh, through the Holy Bible told us in the book of Exodus Chapter 22 v 18 that we should suffer not the witch to live.

I admire the courage of these guys to killed that witch. they shouldn't be attested but rewarded handsomely for their upholding the Bible. They should be given weapons to keep killing witches and wizards who are responsible for this country's misery. they're the ones causing accidents on roads, sending diseases, killing good people, preventing successes of people amongst other things

I'd hire a team of lawyers to not only get these guys out but also amend the constitution to make it perfectly legal to kill witches.

If I get information from Yahweh that any of my family member is a witch I won't hesitate to kill such a person and you should be like me
