A middle-aged housewife simply identified as Mama Patience had on Sunday, January 4, 2015 made a chilly confession on how she rendered her 62-year-old farmer husband impotent by giving him a concoction in Ekwuoma community, Delta State.
It was learnt that that the woman who was childless is renowned in the area where she sells bean cake locally referred to as “akara”.
She confessed that she used what was described as a ‘remote control’ via concoction to make her husband unable to impregnate any woman following frequent disagreements between them.
According to Leadership, the woman 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.
In the course of the disagreement, the woman was accused of using diabolical powers but she faulted the claims and dismissed them as evil plots from her haters.
It was disclosed from sources that the husband had taken up a new wife after being married to the woman for over twenty years without any issue.
This condition led him to marrying a second wife, an action which generated sparks from various angles.
Confessing her evil act 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.”
In reaction to the confession, a family member who pleaded anonymity disclosed that the family had concluded plans to banish the woman from the community.
