Cries of Witchcraft
It's saddening and shocking to hear
that accusations of "witches" are still heard
and believed in the Niger Delta area
Such incidents not only put the pastors and supposed prophets
to questionable shame but also show what
religion ought not to be like
It is not about abandoning your child because you
trust an outsider who says he is a witch
It is not accusing him of being the cause of the
separation between you and your husband
It is not blaming your illness on the magical powers
of your child's potent witchcraft
The ignorance of man becomes prey
to the selfish desires of another
who claim to reveal the evils of the land
The only evil at work here
are the deceiving adults themselves

I wonder, will it ever end? Will we transcend our past crimes against reason?
The sad thing is that the children suffer for their beliefs...
It will end if those with reason speak up against it and show them the truth. Seems like at least one man in the area is doing that.
