Woman Kills Father In Akwa Ibom Over Witchcraft Allegations, Says He’s Behind Her Sickness
May 18, 2016 – Pictures: Woman Kills Father In Akwa Ibom Over Witchcraft Allegations, Says He’s Behind Her Sickness
A lady identified as Glory Bassey has been arrested for allegedly killing her father, Bassey Dan Udo (70) from Mbiakpan Etan Itu Local Government Area.
Bassey said she killed her father because he was the force behind her woes. She said: “I have had two husbands and five children – all died mysteriously. My brother went mad before he died and my mother had seven strange sicknesses before she died.”
Bassey added that her father had strange powers with which he killed her children before their birth. She said: “Five of my children died in my womb at the point of their birth and were evacuated through surgical operations.”
The suspect told journalists that her condition became unbearable when she became par tially blind and decided to seek solutions. She said: “I went to my mother’s grave and cried my heart out. I took sand from her grave, mixed it with water and washed my face. Later in the night while sleeping my mother appeared and told me I should confront my father that he is the cause of my problem. She even said my father was behind her death and that of my younger brother.
“Look at my legs, I had no accident. The disease just came and has defiled several medications. So, I confronted my father about my predicament but he started beating me with a cane while raining abuses on me.
“I then retaliated by snatching the same cane and using it to beat him, only to be told after a day that he had died.” However, the suspect said her father’s death had not brought any succour to her as her problems still persisted.

I can’t say whether or not her allegation against her late father is true. All I know is that many people start their hell fire right from this earth. I’ll never fully understand what God has done for me. To grace I am forever indebted.

Once again, another thing I know is that that thing you called your mother that appeared to you in your dream is nothing but the demon that pushed you into this situation, wearing the look of your mother. Or has it appeared to you again to console you after it landed you here?

You should have gone to strong man of God for prayers. It may be ancestral curse or family idol that is causing your problems. You have no excuse whatsoever to commit this murder.
Come to think of it, did you say you only flogged him with the same cane he used on you and after a day, he died? I smell something, was that cane where all his power was and it was never meant to be used on him? Hmmmm, this is strange and you me be right about him. I hope the court understands you.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SO , YOU THINK BY KILLING HIM WILL SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM . YOU HAVE OPENED THE GATE OF GUANTANAMOH BAY PRISON . WELLDONE.
EITHER YOU ARE RIGHT OR WRONG , YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO THAT, NOT ALL THAT YOU SEE OR KNOW THAT YOU HAVE TO ACT UPON .
YOU SHOULD HAVE GONE OUT THERE TO FIND SOLUTION AND THEN , MOVE FAR AWAY FROM HIM, BUT YOU HAVE CREATED LIFE IN PRISON , FOR YOURSELF.
