The University of Nigeria (UNN), Nsukka, Enugu state, will host a conference on
witchcraft between November 26 and November 27.
The conference, which has the theme “Witchcraft: Meaning, factors and
practices”, is convened by the Professor B.I.C Ijomah Centre for Policy and
Research in UNN.
A notice of the event seen by The Cable listed David Ker, a former vice-chancellor
of Benue State University, as the keynote speaker.
It also said Charles Igwe, UNN vice-chancellor, is the chief host, while Egodi
Uchendu, director, B.I.C Ijomah centre for policy and research, is the host.
The Merriam Webster Dictionary described witchcraft as the use of sorcery or
magic.
Following the announcement to host a conference on witchcraft at the
prestigious University Of Nigeria, Nsukka between November 26 and November 27,
Adaeze Ekwueme, a Nigerian intercessor, is calling on God’s supernatural
intervention as the dates approaches.
Sharing the handbill on Facebook, the intercessor, proclaimed that such gathering
will not be allowed to hold in Enugu state and that they will die before the
gathering. Adaeze wrote:
“I stand to speak against this Witchcraft gathering.It shall not stand or hold in
Enugu state its environs IN the mighty name of JESUS CHRIST (intercede for Enugu
state)…We need the papa Idahosa’s kind of anointing for this generation O…
They try to gather, they die before the gathering!!!”.
the Christian body on campus had therefore registered their discontent has Posters had since been seen on campus and its environs, all at the quest of bringing the conference to its feet.
Information from one of the organizers of the conference claimed that the conference had been cancelled, but the University had since not released a statement in that light.

Gatherings aside Christian gathering is always intimidating Christians... And they preach tolerance on daily basis.

Christians are meek, tolerant - my foot! How would an intellectual gathering affect you fanatical worshippers of pastorprenuers. Tolerance indeed - the fanatics are even invoking their little god to kill innocent people for them!

I didnt go into philosophical definition of what a religion is cos am not interested. My interest does not go beyond people trying to gather and discuss which does not go against any law in Nigeria.
However, am not part of them so am not in position to highlight their motives for you, if you're so interested, safe the date and be there.
If i may ask... What's your problem with their motives, and which of your fundamental human rights will their gatherings infringe?

The zealots and religious fanatics are already rearing their heads to do what they are good at doing; criticism without proper comprehension.

This is a citadel of learning for Christ sake, and the people hosting it are from a research Centre. It's all about knowledge about sorcery and how they affect humanity and not necessarily a conference to conjure and invoke warlocks and witches to the noble institution.

Please, ignorance fanatics should steer clear of this conference. How I wish I'm in NSK to grace to occasion.

Don't be nonchalant, professors didn't force your illiteracy ravaged populace to select an illiterate as a president. If only many had school cert., we wouldn't be where we are today.
