A fetish priest who apparently took a ‘client’ of his to a river for ‘cleansing’ found himself out of his depth, after both of them drowned in the river.
40 year old Nana Kwesi Afram was the fetish priest, from Kwahu, and took 53-year-old Kwaku Donkor to the Pra River in Adansi-Asese to cleanse him of some ‘spirits’ which the priest claimed had been afflicting his life and kept him ill for the past four years.
According to adomonline, whilst there for the ritual, the mishap occurred and both drowned.
Speaking to Adom Fm, the chief of Adansi-Asese said he believes the pair died because the fetish priest ignored his advice on what animal to sacrifice. The chief said he told him the river likes black goats but he ignored the advice.
“The Pra River likes pure black goat but this fetish priest ignored our advise and sacrificed a black and white goat which was why they drowned” Nana Kwesi Eholu said.
He added that their bodies have not been found because of the nature of their death, and that the townspeople would have to perform some rituals to retrieve the bodies from the angry god.
