Call this one another wonder of the century in Nigeria, and you would not be far from the truth. A Catholic nun in a remote Enugu village bleeds mysteriously on her forehead, palms, eyes and feet like the re-enactment of the passion of Jesus Christ during crucifixion by the Jews. Not only that, she receives revelations about many hidden things thereby unearthing and destroying several charms believed to have been used to chain the destinies of men.

On Holy Thursday, few days to Easter Sunday of 2012, this reporter embarked on a tortuous 12-hour journey to Umuagbedo Agu, Amachalla community in Nsukka, Enugu State.

In a local primary school in the community, the Last Supper mass, according to Roman Catholic tradition, was in progress. Time was 10:30 pm and a sea of heads covered the entire field. A woman with blue wrapper tied round the waist was discussing with a lady, telling her that she was already noticing signs and was afraid that if the priest did not end the mass before midnight, the passion may meet her inside the school field.

The officiating priest, identified as Fr. Ekwueme, finished the Eucharistic consecration and Sister Martina joined him in sharing the Holy Communion. There were so many people at the mass and sharing the communion lasted long. At a time, Sister Martina became restless and stopped.

The mass dragged on till about 11:59 pm. Suddenly the sister shouted in pain and beckoned on her assistant, Eucharia, to come and hold her hands. Sister Martina’s two hands had suddenly ruptured through the skin on the back of her palms and she started bleeding immediately. It looked exactly as if nails had suddenly and pierced through the two hands, leaving a gaping hole that bled leaving her reeling in pain.

In the twinkle of an eye, she ran to her house some metres away from the venue of the mass, causing a stir. Those who noticed the uproar also ran after her to occupy vantage positions for the event of the midnight.

Going through the link, I realize she's probably a stigmata.

That's a known phenomenon in the Catholic church.

The likes of St Padre Pio and other were equally stigmatized during their lifetime.

Yes, she is a stigmata. They suffer a lot but highly blessed by heaven.

It's a long read. What can I say? Who is like God. What a story! What an account! What a great confirmation f our faith! What a powerful God we have!
