As cases of witchcraft branding continue to thrive and perpetrators go unpunished, the recent is Mrs Martina Okey Itagbor, a mother of four girls who was accused of witchcraft and was subsequently burnt to death in Old Netim, Akamkpa Local Government Area of Cross River State.

In April 2023, some youths suspected to be gangsters accused the late Martina of inflicting illness on a certain youth in the community.

One of her daughters who narrated to CrossRiverWatch said the chief of the community, Ntufam Augustine Nyong Orok washed his hands off the accusation and asked Mrs. Martina to defend herself if she was not a witch.

The matter was said to have been reported to Old Netim Police Station, Akamkpa same April 2023 when the first attack was launched on her but the police were in fear because gangsters were involved.

On the 13th of June, 2023, some youths in the community gathered and stocked themselves in a charted vehicle heading to the inauguration reception of the member representing Akamkpa 1 State Constituency and formal Commissioner for Agriculture during former Governor Ben Ayade term – Hon. Okon Owuna.

Unfortunately, the youths who were suspected to be drunk had an accident and two of them lost their lives on the spot and many were injured.

A day after, some of the youths came and dragged Madam Martina out of her house to the main road, alleging she masterminded the accident and death of the two youths using witchcraft.

How do you know the mob is Christian or otherwise

When I saw witchcraft my mind went straight to Akwa ibom and cross River states.

The op is a head slammer

An average Nigerian is braindead. How would you accuse someone of being something, and then ask the accused to prove himself/herself innocent of the charges. This madness is very rampant in this country (even among the so called educated ones).

You're a foolish bastard if you can't see that it was a terrorist catholic pastor that called her a witch. Bastard. Your hatred will drive you down to your grave. Bastard hateful animal

SHiNJA4RMDWEST:

So the pastor that labeled her a witch should be regarded as a leg slammer

You must be one of the terrorist that set her ablaze and karma is coming for you, a killer who takes pride in killing people and defending it because of religion.

You're a pig that have access to the Internet.

A pastor declared her a witch. That was the justification the mob used in burning her alive

SHiNJA4RMDWEST:

DIS must be one of the murderers that set fire and burnt the woman alive.

You must have a heart of stone for you to support and justify such heinous crimes.

i wonder oh.

You see black man eh. Msheww. SMH.

I read and reread the article and I did not see anywhere that it is a pastor who accused the killed woman of witchcraft. If your religion is known for violence must you lie about Christianity to justify your wicked, unforgiving,callous and barbaric religion ?

You have a serious problem. If you can't see that here doesn't mean it wasn't a pastor that tagged her a witch to be burnt.
