In as much as we commiserate with the woman killed out of ignorance, we should be leery not to align the misfortune with the deplorable socio-economic situations in the country.  As the saying goes from a biblical verse, “those who are well have not need of the physician”.  We could stand or even sit here to portion blame for the misfortune of our people as one writer quoted: “Nigerians are the architects of their own misfortune”, but knowing what we all know today that Nigerian Government has failed the people for over 50 yrs.  Can anyone sincerely assert Nigerians are the architects of their misfortune? Please refrain from such callous statements. The condemnation we ought to concern ourselves with is somebody/people who had the gut to kill his or her own mother.  Personally, I think that is bad and sad!

I had a very sad experience with witchcraft at Efurun, Warri in 1998. I was raised at the Ikpan Police Barrack, Efurun in Warri. Every night, this one little black mouse would climb my bed to bite my toes. When I woke up, I would have sore on three toes, and this repeated on the same toes for a whole week. On two occasions, I chased the mouse to a particular hut where there lived one old woman. According to sources, the woman had lived there without any family member before the city decided to build a police barrack next to her hut. One night, I nearly killed the mouse with machete but missed by half inch as it ran into her safe heaven - the old woman’s hut.  Only God knows how I felt about being attacked by an old woman I saw and greeted once a while. The attack stopped thanks to another Edo woman, a police officer’s wife,  who gave me the antidote of witch hunting: special type of cocoa yam, ukasi leaf (Gnetum Africanum), yellow palm nut and a pin tied and hung on the entrances of my bedroom. Such activities have negative impact on the people affected. That said, no one suppose to take laws in his/her hands. Then again, one cannot substantiate the claim of witch hunting to the authorities; the whole thing then becomes the case of inundation of he-said she-said scenario.

Linkup2006, it is true the government of Nigeria is made up of Nigerians, but in this case, according to the author, "Nigerians are the architects of their own misfortune" is a generalization and I think it is wrong. It would have been more specific and more understandable if the assertion was directed to the few who have usurped opportunities and trust bestowed on them to get into office only to sacrifice the whole nation's economic wellbeing.  We should blame the situation on Nigeria govt. not the general public. What shall we say of the Nigerian graduates who cannot find work, some resorting to prostitution and other crimes? Shall we rightly and honestly blame them for trying to survive by whatever means?  The country that made $59Billion in 2010 (Bloomberg report: Elisha Baba-Gbogbo. April 14, 2011) or see below - 

"Nigeria’s Oil Revenue Rose 46% to $59 Billion in 2010 on Improved Security.
Nigeria’s oil exports rose 46 percent to 9.15 trillion naira ($59 billion) last year as prices increased and companies raised output on improved security in the Niger River delta, the National Bureau of Statistics said"

So my bros and sisters, Nigerian are among the most hardworking people on earth. Evidence, look at most of the profiles on this website, there’s not a country in this world you would not find Nigerians. I am therefore of the opinion that Nigerians are not lazy as some people claim.  The naija populace only need some motivation and support from the government to harness their God-given talents.
