According to him, the unnamed woman who survived the disaster told him during a visit after the incident that, prior to the occurrence, she frequently dreamt of being hunted by witches.
Speaking in an interview with Okay FM, he said, “one sad thing is that I went somewhere in Turkey and met a Ghanaian woman. And she told me that prior to the incident, whenever she had a dream, witches are chasing her with sticks, and trying to kill her.
“She’s also a nanny worker…so she disclosed that, on Sunday; the dawn on the day of the incident, she woke up to visit the washroom and upon her return, she noticed that objects were dropping in their kitchen and all around the home and that reminded her of her dreams, and she concluded that the incident was because her family witches had come finally to get her.
He added “she said she hasn’t seen such strange happening before and due to the fact that she is ignorant of the earthquake, she was blaming it on the bizarre nightmares she had been having as the root of the problem which made her very terrified.
“…she eventually reported the problem to her employer, who was sleeping with the wife at the time, and they had to flee the house to seek safety after realizing the incident was an earthquake.”
He further stated that following the horrific event, the woman had become stranded and need assistance.
