Intro to Castro’s ‘She Dey Do Me’ Song- Coincidence or a Premonition?

Ever so often something happens in this world that defies all the laws of logic and reason. In such instances we fall for spiritual explanations, as we humans tend to attribute the things we do not understand to powers beyond us.

Since the disappearance of Castro and Janet Bandu, we have all seen how the landscape has become saturated with talk of the spiritual; the fetish priests, pastors, and ‘marine spirits’ all coming out to explain to us what exactly happened to Castro. Most of them are incredible and easy to dismiss, yet now one has emerged from the unlikeliest of sources which is not so easy to dismiss as nonsense.

And this ‘prediction’ or premonition or whatever you might like to call it, came from Castro himself! People started talking about it not long after the incident, yet it was only after listening to the song today did I realise how eerie the whole thing is.

Somewhere last year Castro released another of his numerous hit songs, this one he called ‘She dey do me’. The entire track is about how a certain lady ‘dey do am’, yet it is the introduction to the track, rendered in Ga, which defies belief, particularly when held up against recent events.

For the Ga speakers amongst us, the intro goes something like…

‘kw3 hi gbee faa mli zelezele

ni hina emli ng))m) mi mpele mpele

no hew) faal3 k3mi aya eee

hidi sikli t3 s3 mi titi amane eee’

For the non-Ga speakers, listen closely. Castro is saying here, literally that ‘He’s fallen into a river, he’s seen how enjoyable it is down there, and he’s struggling against it. The river should carry him away, he’s followed something sweet and has fallen into trouble’

This is uncanny, particularly in the wake of theories following him being out there with a lady, whom some reports say was his girlfriend whilst others dispute that. That follows the line about following something sweet into trouble; that’s a line most men would be familiar with but in this case that coupled with the mentions of falling in a river make a hell of a coincidence.

We’ve also heard from the people claiming he is under the sea, well and now 2013 Castro is telling us it is sweet down there. Maybe the lady was right after all, and the ‘sweetness would let him spend a long time there before he returns’

This case keeps bringing up interesting parallels, and this is one that is not so easy to ignore. Is there any connection between the song and the incident, are there any spirtual connotations to it, or is this just the mother of all coincidences?
