Just like most Nigerian airlines, a
man, Charles Atta, who claimed to be a wizard, was on
Wednesday found on the banks of the Okrudu River at Kaimebre, a
settlement near the Kasoa New Market in the Central Region Ghana.
The man, who is believed to be in his 70s looked frail, pale and bore protruding breasts like that of a teenage girl. His
body was smeared with mud from the bank of the river where he was found
by two brothers, Liberty Obeng and Innocent Obeng, who claimed they
found the strange man crying for help.
The two brothers told
Daily Guide reporters that the self-acclaimed wizard confessed to them
that he was in the company of colleagues, including a medical doctor
and were flying to Cape Coast for a meeting when he was forced down.
According
to him, they were flying over a church where an all-night vigil was
being held when he crash- landed at Servant Kings International School.
“When
we asked him where he was coming from, Atta told us that he was from
Akuapem Akropong but was flying to Cape Coast to attend a meeting for
witches and wizards,” he said.
Charles also confessed that the
two puffy protrusions on his chest were breasts taken from his 16-year-
old granddaughter and that he normally borrowed them for his night
activities.
The two brothers said they were initially confused
and bewildered by the weird sight of the man, and not knowing what to
do, they took him to Pink FM, a local radio station at Kasoa for help. When
the strange announcement was made on radio, hundreds of people besieged
the premises of the radio station to see the suspected wizard.
Upon
hearing the news, the Kasoa District Police dispatched a number of
police personnel to the station to save the victim from being lynched. Superintendent
Samuel Tabril Punobyin told the paper that the police did not
investigate spiritual matters and that the suspected wizard could
therefore not be charged.
He said the police would look for the
family of the man and hand him over to them. Charles Atta is still in
the custody .of the Kasoa Police.
