Those who are core Nigerians must have at one time or another, heard of the superstitious belief of alleged
witchcraft practices in Benin, Edo State.
Well, the series of incidents that happened on Tuesday, August 25, will send chills down your spine and make you wonder if the superstitions were indeed true or just a mere coincidence.
Narrating the incident he experienced, a source said;
“This stuff just amazed me and did prove that some things we call superstition, might just be there without us knowing it. Before I go further, around that particular spot was where a 17-year-old kid was killed while selling Christmas chicken.
“Yesterday I was passing when I saw that a car swerved off the road and ran into a shop. When I got to where I was going most people there knew two persons from the shop that got hit by the car.
“According to them, the victims’ bones bulged out and one (a woman) was in coma. She was later confirmed dead.
“Just as we where discussing, another call came in that another accident just happened at that same spot involving a bus. I don't know if there was any casualty for the bus because I was in a hurry to get back home.
“On my way back, I took that same route, just some miles away I heard "Gboooom!" Everyone shouted, “E don happen again o! Wetin dey that spot”.
According to the source, it turned out that the tire of a trailer carrying gravels exploded at the exact spot – right in front of that same shop.
“This happened in Benin and the shop had quite a distance from the road, with a high walkway which the car climbed,” the source added.
