A Nigerian man from Akwa Ibom was apprehended by a mob who then went on to give him a serious beating after he was accused of killing his mother after a prophet called her a witch.
This isn’t a new thing as there have been many examples of children neglecting their parents or confronting them with these accusations which more often than not turns out to be false.
The situation took place in Nsit Ubium community in Akwa Ibom state on Friday, April 13.
According to the suspect, the prophet told him that his mother was a witch and was responsible for all the evil and sadness that had befallen him in recent times.
He was immediately apprehended and was tortured by youths in the area. Pictures which have circulated on social media show the man with his hands tied sitting on the floor.
