Witch doctor killed despite bulletproof talisman
2003-12-19
EFL. I poached this from The Corner.
A traditional doctor in central Nigeria has been shot dead by a patient who was testing the potency of an anti-bullet charm the herbalist had prepared for him, police said on Wednesday. Ashi Terfa died when patient Umaa Akor fired a gun at his head two weeks ago in south-central Benue state, police spokesperson Bode Fakeye said.
‘Hey, does this thing’...BANG! ...‘Work?’
"Akor went for an insurance against bullets and contacted Terfa to prepare it for him," he said.
‘Here, take this. It’s magic!’
"To confirm its efficacy, the herbalist tied the charm around his neck and insisted that Akor should fire a gun at him. The experiment proved fatal for the herbalist and his skull was shattered," he added. "He died immediately".
Wrong charm?
