Child witches of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria is the latest episode in the unending saga of tragedies pervading Nigeria. Imagine innocent children, some as young as two months old, being branded witches and wizards and tortured for allegedly being "responsible" for the misfortunes of their parents. They are tortured to confess their culpability in witchcraft and wizardry, abandoned, maimed and sometimes even killed for this superstition. It is unbelievable but true of this primitive Akwa Ibom state in Nigeria and pictures do not lie that in this 21st century,
people of Akwa Ibom State are still so primitive it hurts. What will the real cave-man do? Please do yourself a service, click the links below, to see how uncivilized and primitive some parts of Nigeria still is. Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria is the culprit today and it is in a part of the geographical area of Nigeria that used to kill twins, believing they portend bad omen, until the arrival of Mary Slessior who stopped the practice. It is also highly rumoured that some people in Akwa Ibom state from Ugep area, still practises cannibalism.
One wonders what manner of men live in this God-forsaken part of Africa that ostracise her innocent and beautiful children on the unfounded illiterate superstition that they are witches and wizards? In this 21st century world where the rest of the world are going to space, building space stations and mapping the lunar surface, a state in Nigeria called Akwa Ibom State is busy rounding up her future generation, branding them witches and sometimes dismembering them to get rid of a supposed curse. It shall not be well with these cave-dwellers of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.
To their Governor Godswill Obot Akpabio, Icheokudotcom says, you and your people are shameless! This documentary has exposed the devilish practices in your state and for you to pretend ignorance thereto, is comparable to Alaska's Sarah Palin faking that she did not know that some turkeys were being massacred right behind her. Just wearing a good tie does not make you a civilized genteel when you left this despicable and abominable inhuman practices of your people to go on, unchallenged. But now that the veil has been lifted off this your evil, the whole world is now focused to see what your actions will be to eradicate or at least abate it. Until then, let every decent man and woman send some assistance to the God-sent British humanitarian grappling with the so many traumatised children of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria! What a bloody black eye to Nigeria, this is! This British charity worker, Gary Foxcroft, 29, fighting to help the children stigmatised as witches is the programme director for the UK charity Stepping Stones, Nigeria. Mr Foxcroft first came to Nigeria in 2003 to research the oil industry for his masters degree; but he was so shocked with these children's plight that he decided to help raise money for a refuge for them. He established a Child Rights and Rehabilitati
on Network (CRARN) to cater for these abandoned "witch" children and equally try to persuade their parents to take them back. He has also helped to build a school for the children who are refused places at local schools. If this link below does not move you, nothing else will and Icheokudotcom salutes the courage of the young British humanitarian who is providing succour to these branded and abandoned so called little "witches" of Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria.

Christy 'Apena' Essien-Igbokwe , the wife of Jegede Shokoya of the New Masquerade and Nigeria's lady of songs is dead; she was 51years old. Although her family claimed that "brief Illness" killed her like so many Nigerians; Icheoku retorts that it was most likely AKwa Ibom voodoo and remote control that was used to arrest her. It is on record that she had fallen out with the governor of her native Akwa Ibiom State and have been having a relentless war for political turf with the governor? So who knows whether she was sacrificed to Ekpe cult or even Alusi-Okija as an offal; afterall African science is still very much alive and portent. May her soul rest in peace.
