African Belives Beggars Belief by yomz1e(m): 3:50pm On May 16, 2016 |
The albino who confronted a witchdoctor http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-36131711 Stephane Ebongue fled Cameroon because of the colour of his skin - his albinism made him a target for those who believe such people have special powers. Years later he returned home to confront a witchdoctor, and to question him about the practice of using human body parts in "magic" potions. An albino girl in my church told her employer she will never come to Nigeria even though shes Nigerian based on demonic practices like this. Please share your stories. This barbaric act must stop!

Op, I don't really know what you are saying We have plenty albinos here, especially in the east, and I have never heard of their killing here, even as a tale of the past. |
