A 41-year-old mother of 3, Late Mrs Foluke Olusola Joseph, died on
October 2, 2017 in Ibadan, Oyo state and her family said that their
11-year-old housemaid allegedly sucked her blood and she is responsible for her death.
Ephesians 6:12
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of
this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
I would have loved to hide the identities of the family
but deep inside me I felt I should share the whole scenario not because
I have no respect for the family but to use the occurrence to help so
many of us that might fall victim and I believe you all would bear with
me.
Share the story, warn your wives and entire house of the danger of just bringing into your house a total stranger as housemaid.
It all began on Tuesday
night, the 2nd of October 2017, when as usual, Honourable Femi Kehinde,
Uncle Segeto and I were all hold up in the hotel discussing. Nocturnal
lifestyle has become a norm for me for a while now since I started
working with politicians and in the deep of the meeting, Honourable
screamed and his countenance suddenly changed from that of a happy man
to a crying baby whose mother has just spanked for one offence or the
other.
His eyes became soaked with tears all of a sudden and could only muttered few words
‘Please we have to suspend whatever we are doing right now and drive straight to Felele to see Femi’
Uncle Segeto could not fathom the reason but Honourable muttered few strength to explained
‘I have just read on the Facebook the sudden death of the wife of my close ally, Femi or don’t you know Femi ? he asked
We all rushed downstairs straight to Uncle Segun cars, It was
sometime around 9 30pm and I knew right there that I may not get back to
my house till around 12midnight if not I have to stay at the hotel for the best reasons known to me.
Honourable was fighting to control the tears strolling
down his cheeks while explaining to us the relationship between him and
Femi which existed for about two decades and I could only nod my heads
like that of agama liazard in agreement though I never knew who that
Femi is .
After navigating into Bello street at Fellele, Lagelu
estate, the abode of the deceased was still at the extreme end of
Felele toward Iwo road express way, the house was a bungalow and
everywhere was still apparently because of the sad event which occurs at
the wee hours of Monday, the 2nd of October 2019.
Two men whom I believe are family members of the
bereaved were around to sympathise with the widower, they lay on the
floor and later sat on the couch to receive us.
‘Femi, How and when did it happen, for how long have
you been on it that you didn’t carry me along, was she sick or what?
Honourable Femi Kehinde queried and could not hold back his confusion
and anger and hope the news was just a mere rumour.
He mandated the widower to call the Doctor who treated
her last, apparently to determine the cause and source of her death
probably because ‘Baba mi oo’ as we call the Honourable is a barrister.
Femi, the husband seems not to have come to terms that
the love of his life has just said goodbye to him forever yet , he
simply replied the barrage of question from the erudite lawyer mildly
‘Uncle, I think this must just be a TV soap or something from a Nollywood act that we watch. He began,
‘ I often watch this kind of storyline in movies and believe its
just a superfluous act. I hear these fallacies on radio station and
never really believe they are true anyway.
‘how do I begin to explain the mysterious way my wife
died from the wickedness and witchcraft of an eleven year old maid who
spent barely seven months with us?
‘How can I explain that a child we brought into this
house sometimes in April, fed and treated her well could be the cause
of the untimely death of my wife who ends up confessing that she has
been feeding fat sucking the blood of my wife for that past six months?
This is bizzare
Hmmmm….This is becoming interesting, I laid back and
listened attentively to these tales from moonlight. Yea …I’m very
spiritual but to be in the thick of the action is not something I
experience often.
‘Crime stories are often very interesting because it
happens to someone else’, goes a popular adage but the Yorubas would
say, Eni Ija o ba , lo npe ara e lokunrin’ another one says Eni Esu o
tan, lo nso pe oun gbon’
(It’s when you have never fought a battle that you think you are
man and He that has never fallen prey to devil’s deceit thinks he is
wise)
not until the widower played back both the audio and the visual of
the true confession of the witch in question from his mobile device that
I began to believe.
Hello doctor, the widower began the discussion and eventually handed the phone over to Honuorable Barrister Lawyer’.
There was no need to strain my ears to listen to their
discussion. Femi, the widower already put the phone on speaker and from
their discussion, the Doctor said he could not find any cause of her
death as he carried out several test on her and gave her the very best
treatment andnever found a cause of ailment, he however said she was
getting better until she gave up the ghost at about 5am on Tuesday and body already deposited at the private mortuary in Jericho. Only then did we conclude that it was indeed a spiritual attack
How did it happened? I really don’t want to be too
forward by getting myself involved to ask question but luckily for me,
Femi brought out his phone where both the audio and visual of the girls
confession was recorded.
We were all spellbound to hear the damaging confession
of the little girl who who was brought into the house by the bereaved
sister from Apomu/ Ikire or Asejire axis of Osun state.
Mind you the girl isn’t an idigine of Osun oooo, I learnt propbaly she is from Benue or an Igede
Bose, (the bereaved sister I believed) was called in to
explain how it all happened. According to the husband , Femi who said
he had to send the girl packing from his house about 2weeks before the
demise of his wife because according to him his spirit could no longer
accommodate the girl
‘My spirit has not really been in tune with that girl
since she stepped into my house and I began marathon prayers all alone
for God to take control and right in the middle of the prayers one midnight
I heard a voice to send the girl out of my house if I really want peace
in my house, I told my wife that morning and of she went with Bose
My wife is a very prayerful person I’m just shocked how
she had her way because from her confession she said she often laughed
at my wife whenever she is praying.
She nearly wrecked havoc in Bose’s home too within the
four days she spent with them which shows that God has been with us in
the house since.
Bose was startled as she explained.
‘This girl was not the first house maid that would be in this
house, I think she is from Benue and we got her in Asejire near Apomu
/Ikire but when she came to my house after uncle Femi sent her packing
that was when she confessed that she is a witch who has sucked the blood
of her madam for six months now.
To be honest immediately this girl came in, we all noticed that aunty was emaciated while the girl suddenly turned cheeky.
Aunty was even joking with her one day that she should please help
tell her mates to stop sucking her blood, the girl said ‘alright ma,
she will relay her message to the group.
My sister was shocked but none of us took her response
seriously not until the fourth day she arrived my home when Uncle Femi
sent her packing. I noticed the powdery contents of my baby’s food in
her mouth. I thought she stole from not until when my baby started
vomiting all the food I gave him then I knew something strange was
happening to my baby as I began to scream and descend on the girl
‘What have you done to my baby?’ why is my baby vomiting? I asked while beaten her consistently
She later begged and said she will confess,
‘Confess what?’ Then she began by saying she is a witch and the
leader of her group which comprises of about 10 members and that they
hold their meetings on the highway.
She said she had tried to kill her baby but because the
child his strong willed and God is with him, he vomited all the poison
he spilled into his feeding bottle.
Bose said she was shocked and had to call everyone at home to come and hear the confession and recorded her confession
The girl continued by saying that she spilled blood
into the pap she was asked to prepared for their grandmother and spit on
it enough saliva inside the pap for her to drink too.
We further inquired about other damages she done with
her spiritual power and she continued by saying she has as a spiritual
button in the house and that whenever she presses it the blood of her
madam in would be squeezed and drained into the keg which she sucks
together with her group in their meeting
According to Bose, she said the ‘girl witch’ said she
fell in love with the first child of madam w a ten year old boy when she
arrived and all effort to make the boy fall in love with her proved
abortive
‘Madam’s boy is strong spiritually too, all my efforts
in wooing him into our society roved abortive as I usually lure him with
snack and biscuit even food from me ,this boy would reject it, that was
why in our meeting we decided to feed on his mother’s blood ‘.
Bose said that a day after the ‘ girl witch’ confessed,
they noticed that her body was swollen with numerous marks of been
beaten badly and when we asked her she said it’s true that she was badly
beaten by her group for confessing and before we knew it there were
wounds all over her as we returned her to where we took her from.
we pleaded with her to please release my sister and she said there
is nothing God cannot do only for her to give up the ghost eventually.
This was more than I could bear and when I was asked to
pray for the family, the Holy spirit gave me few messages which I
related to them for further prayers
On Friday the 6th of October, we went for the funeral
ceremony of Mrs Foluke Olushola Joseph (Nee Paseda) whose obituary you
see attached to this story.
It was a sad event and my prayers is that God should give the family the fortitude to bear the loss.
