“After my husband had frustrated my efforts to further my education at the University, I got assistance from friends and I graduated.”

“He wants to get rich quick and I am his target. I bleed every time I sleep with him. I see sacrificial calabash on my head in my dreams and in the bedroom.”

“Sometimes when we are in bed, my husband does some magical things at midnight that suggests his evil intention towards me.”

“When I saw these signs, I abandoned the home to him, but our Pastor intervened and I returned once more.”
