River demons to be arrested

A river at Ashongman, a town on the outskirts of Accra, is said to have been hijacked by a fierce demon that is causing havoc to persons that go into it.

Meanwhile, the same river is said to contain several layers of diamond.

News-One gathered that the chiefs and elders of the area have employed the services of several spiritualists to help remove this demon but the tragedy has continued for years.

But popular spiritualist, Sheikh Nakambo Usman, has told News-One that he has been called upon to arrest the said demon and he intends to “arrest” this demon come this Saturday.

“I have seen the demon before. It was naked and very hairy. It is a male demon and when it saw me, it jumped into the river. I saw it seated under the Atomic Bridge at night. I was driving by then,” Sheikh Nakambo told News-One.

The Sheikh explained further: “There is a diamond under this river but there is a powerful demon in the river and because of that it is impossible to dig up the diamond. Several people have died in an attempt to dig it up and all this deaths were caused by the demon.

“But come this Saturday, I would go into a battle with this demon, arrest it and make sure everybody sees the demon under arrest. I don’t believe in casting out demons, I believe in arresting demons”.

When asked where exactly the river is located, Sheikh Nakambo said it is at Ashongman but it flows all the way to the Atomic Washing Bay area.

“I remember that Coach Addy once had an accident in this area. This was caused by the demon. The demon used to stay in another river at Adenta. As Adenta developed, people started going against the rules of the gods of that river. The rule was that no one should enter the river with shoes or slippers but as the place developed, people started entering the river with slippers and this made the demon leave in anger to settle in the Ashongman River,” he added.
