The significant rise in cases of witchcraft allegations and persecution in the UK has been attributed to the activities of African – especially Nigerian – churches in the country.

Gary Foxcroft, Executive Director of the Witchcraft and Human Rights Information Network, said in a statement Monday that the churches are growing at a phenomenal rate across the UK.

“Most of them are branches of large mega churches from Africa,” said Mr. Foxcroft.

“Some of these churches are known to promote the idea that children can be witches. Indeed the head of one of the biggest churches in Africa was captured on YouTube slapping a young woman and calling her a witch.

“There is currently no regulation in place to stop such people from entering the UK and establishing churches. This is clearly something that the government needs to address.”
