I've seen this documentary and it is shocking watching the little boy age 3 wandering around his village asking for food and water only to be ignored by the locals. They branded him a witch. She took him to her home and raised him.
What made him a witch? He's just a child I don't think he knows any witchy anything.
I heard sometimes in African countries albino people are considered witches but this child doesn't look albino or have strong distinctively different features.
Edit: got corrected a few times. Albino people are not considered witches. Their bodies are considered ingredients for witch's brew. I'm not sure what's worse.
In Nigeria, there’s actually an insane/grifting preacher named Helen Ukpabio, who spreads a lot of fear-mongering about child witches. From her book: “If a child under the age of two screams in the night, cries and is always feverish with deteriorating health he or she is a servant of Satan.“ She’s basically built an entire “ministry” about this. Unfortunately, she’s not the only one

Bruh. That's basically most kids <4 years old. What an evil mother fucker.
Right? My son is 1 year old and had feaver like 4 times already. Teething, covid, green shit, a cold. They get all kinds of stuff when they hang around other kids constantly.
