A video of a widow being tied and flogged by members of her community in Umueghu in Amaegbuato autonomous community Nkpa Bende Local Government, Abia state has been shared online.

Activist, Harrison Gwamnishu, who shared a video, said the widow was assaulted after her late husband's brother's wife accused her of being a witch.

I quote him, ''When I talk about widows protection, I'm not asking for too much. Our mothers suffer the most from child delivery.

Mrs. Amarachi Okechi, a widow was accused of witchcraft by her late husband brother's wife.

If you are from Umueghu in Amaegbuato autonomous community Nkpa Bende Local Government, Abia state, your community did this to this woman.

Even when the woman was begging and telling them she's innocent, they tied her hand to her back, tied her two legs, flogged and filmed her.


Her children reached out to the Behind Bars and we have decided to take this matter up no matter what it will cost us.

This is barbaric and should be condemned by all.

#Attention: Please help us tag the wife of Abia State Governor.''

How did they know she's a witch, what if she is what they claim she is are they not in trouble now? Won't the other members of the coven start tormenting those that flogged her?

Some people still believe in witchcraft, the people that beat her should be brought to book

I no de liké put mouth for spiritual things ...
But as they no that she is a witch why Dem no kukuma bind and cast na
Why flogging??

All these juju and witchcraft of a thing do not exist, bluntly saying it's just a fable to decieve the gullible.

Those responsible for this nefarious treatment should be brought to book

Whether it exists or not, no one has right to take the law in their hands. What these people do here is violate that woman's right.
