A middle-aged woman alleged to be a witch
in Ughelli South local government area of
Delta (name withheld) on Friday evening
confessed to have been 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.
According to Leadership ng, Reports said 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 angry mobs
over allegation 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 hill 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 went 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.
