An herbalist, Ndem Asuquo renown for being a specialist in preparing killer charms for his clients, recently cheated death as he was seriously battered in Creek Town, Odukpani Local Government Area of Cross River State by angry youths. Eye witness account had it that the voodoo man was manhandled by youths of the area while allegedly preparing a fetish concoction to kill the youth leader of the town, purportedly for one of his clients, identified as Bassey Nyong who was forced out of office by the youths. Bassey who lost the fight to retain the youth’s leadership seat of the town, enlisted the services of the herbalist, renowned for preparing killer charms.
The herbalist was allegedly caught in the act as he sneaked into the incumbent youth leader’s compound at about mid-day, when the people had gone to work, carrying a powdery substance and spraying it around, even as he was seen making incantations in low tone. When those trailing him asked him what his mission in the compound was, he claimed he was there to say hello to the youth leader. However, when he was asked to explain what the powdery substance in his possession was meant for, he could not offer any explanation.
As the youths pounced on him, Bassey who had followed the crowd into the compound fled into a nearby bush. The herbalist afterward confessed, explaining the circumstances surrounding his mission in the youth leader’s house.
He was later handed over to the police.
