The mob accused Mrs. Okechi of being responsible for the illness of a young girl who took ill and the illness “defied” treatment. They claimed the widow magically caused the ailment.

“The Youths in the community accused Mrs. Okechi of witchcraft after consulting a local diviner who certified her was behind the sickness. Mr. Okechukwu Chidirim led the youths who consulted the diviner,” a local told AfAW.

While the video was trending, Harrison Gwamnishu, a Human Rights activist and Witchcraft advocacy group, Advocacy for Alleged Witches (AfAW), called on the attention of the Abia State government, which in turn, the wife of the Abia State governor, Mrs Nkechi Ikpeazu ordered the woman to be released and brought to Umuahia, State capital for treatment.

Reacting to the humiliation meted on her mother, Ms Flourish Victor said she was heartbroken when she was notified about the mob action on her mother.

Flourish who took to her Facebook account, said her mother is never a witch and she falsely accused by her uncle’s wife.
