US Court Sentences Nigerian Witch Doctor To 14 Years Imprisonment by femology: 3:06pm On May 04, 2015
A 58-year-old Nigerian man, Christopher Omigie, who is a self-acclaimed witch doctor, has been sentenced to 14 years in a US federal prison for providing drug traffickers with magical and “supernatural” protection.

At a court hearing on April 30, prosecutors told the presiding judge, Judge Marcia Crone, that Omigie presented himself to drug traffickers as a witch doctor who had the powers to prevent them from being arrested while they smuggled banned drugs and was paid “hundreds of thousands of dollars” to give supernatural protection from law enforcement.

“Omigie was consulted by drug traffickers in the Cesar Barrera and David Bazan drug trafficking organisations on a daily basis and before, during and after each drug transaction.

“The supernatural protection rendered involved card readings, massages (by Omigie) with magic ointments, cutting of the skin with razor blades and the topical application of magic powder, the use of magic amulets, magic belts, magic coconuts and magic rocks (that those being treated were required to talk to).”

According to the prosecutors, Omigie demanded the smugglers not to have sex or take a shower after they had applied his magical products so they will “not diminish the potency” of his work.
