A woman, seeking refuge with a pastor, has shared an account of her family's ordeal stemming from her son's quest for financial freedom through alleged money rituals.
Aunty Grace, the mother, revealed that her 19-year-old son, who had dropped out of school after junior high, fell in with the wrong crowd and was introduced to an alleged money ritual.
She explained that this ritual has brought severe consequences to their family. She consequently sought help from Pastor Prince Elisha Osei Kofi during his confession session in a video shared on YouTube.
According to Aunty Grace, her son left home with friends and returned days later with newfound wealth.
"I have a 19-year-old child, and he has a lot of friends, so they have been going out often, and sometimes he doesn't return for a week or two,” she said.
According to her, her son began to support the family financially, renovating their house and providing food after he returned from his regular trip. However, this sudden change came at a high cost.
She narrated that she noticed a deep sore on her son's thigh, infested with maggots and despite her inquiries, he refused to explain the cause.
"One day, he left and returned two months later with a car. I asked him where he got the car from, and he told me not to be afraid. Then he started buying things for the house, like rice and other provisions. He left again and returned three months later, wanting to renovate the house, which he did.
"I noticed he started wearing long dresses with a strong smell coming from him. I noticed a strong smell as I got closer to him. Later, I discovered he had a large, deep sore on his thigh with maggots and other insects coming out of it.
“I asked him how it happened, but he couldn't explain. He had become aggressive sleeping with girls indiscriminately,” she asserted.
She further revealed that eventually, one of his friends disclosed that the sore would only heal if Aunty Grace had sexual relations with her son, as part of the sacrificial demands tied to their source of wealth.
"So, I called his friend, and he told me that I shouldn't inform anybody about where they went but my son wouldn’t get better unless I slept with him to heal him.
"One day, my son came to me and said he wanted to sleep with me. I had no option but to allow it. After having multiple sexes with him, I realized that the sores were healing, and later, he became completely healed.
She now suffers from a strong stench and passes maggots in her urine, a condition she believes is linked to the ritual.
"So, I slept with him several times and after he was completely healed, I started struggling to urinate. When I urinate, I get a foul smell and maggots in my urine. I don't even know where my son is now.
“When I urinate, I see the maggots that were in his thigh sore in my urine and I am struggling to survive," she said.
