A middle-age childless housewife in Ekwuoma community, Delta State,
identified as Mama Patience, has allegedly rendered her husband, a
62-year-old farmer, impotent after she reportedly fed him with a
prepared concoction.
Reports said that the housewife, a well
known beans cake seller (“akara”) ,had on Sunday, confessed to using
what was described as ‘remote control’ via concoction to inhibit the
function of the husband’s genitals after they had disagreed on
inexplicable issues.
It was reliably gathered that Mama Patience,
as she is fondly called, had in October 2014 threatened to make life
unbearable for the husband whose second wife had complained of
abandonment and lack of conjugal attention from the husband, for over
five years, a threat that resulted in family meeting where the woman
(Mama Patience) was fined two goats and some tubers of yam to appease
the gods of the land.
While their quarrel lasted, there were
allegations and counter-allegations of telepathy powers being used by
Mama Patience, which she dismissed as the handiwork of her enemies.
Sources said that Mama Patience had been married for 24 years to the
husband but could not bear a child, a situation that led the husband to
take a second wife.
Expectedly, her husband’s marriage to another
woman generated bad blood as accusing fingers were allegedly pointed at
different directions.
Confessing before a large crowd of persons, the woman said: “Yes,
I mixed up a concoction to prove a point to my husband when he told me
that he can no longer sleep with me and would rather go back to the
second wife. The concoction, which was prepared for me by a native
doctor in a neighbouring community, was to render him impotent. He took
it and there was result.”
Speaking on the incident, a
family member, who did not want his name in print, said that the family
resolved to banish her from the community.
