A self-proclaimed prophetess, Chinyere Nwachukwu, has been remanded
in Kirikiri Prisons in Lagos State, western Nigeria, over an alleged
fake love potion prepared for a woman, Amarachi Egekonye, 36, seeking
for a man that would marry her.
The 32-year old Chinyere was arrested by the police at Ikotun
Division, Lagos and charged with obtaining money under false pretence
and stealing under the Criminal Code before Ejigbo Magistrate’s Court,
Lagos.
The victim alleged that the prophetess told her that she was
possessed with certain demons that were preventing her from getting
married and to ward off the evil, Chinyere demanded for N70,000 and MTN
recharge cards worth N12,000 from her for the love potion and other
spiritual assistance she would render.
Amarachi said when she agreed, Chinyere took her to her Arida-Ikotun
prayer house where she collected the money and the MTN cards for
‘spiritual communication’.
Thereafter, the suspect bathed and prayed for Amarachi. She also gave
Amarachi the love potion and instructed her to use it regularly to
attract a man that would propose to her.
