A Kenyan politician Swindled in a sorcery deal
November 8th, 2007
JOHANNESBURG

A Kenyan politician was embarrassed in the hands of police in Johannesburg,when he was found stark naked at Umlazi cemetery in T section having lost R1,000,000 to a conman purporting to be an agent for a renowned witchdoctor in South Africa.

This comes hardly a month after a report was released on witchcraft in South Africa which claims the biggest culplits are politicians who spend an average of R10,000,000 every year as fees on South African witchdoctors.

According to police spokesman Mr Zukile Majoya,the politician had traveled from Nairobi on Wednesday morning and was scheduled to have a session and a cleansing ceremony at the cemetery on the night of 24th through Thursday morning.

Its reported the politician was referred to the man by a top clergy lady in his campaign team in Nairobi. Interestingly this conman is alleged to be a fiancée to the bishop lady and they intend to marry as soon as a court order barring the marriage is lifted by the high court in Nairobi.

The politician is reported to have been advised by the agent to stuff the money in a briefcase on instructions from the witchdoctor and hand it over at the cemetery for delivery to him to appease the gods before the ceremony took place.

It's said the politician heeded to the instructions and handed over the briefcase containing the money and was left at the periphery of the cemetery where he was instructed to strip all the clothes as he awaited the man to come back and pick him. Unfortunately this was never to be.

The politician who is seeking to be Kenya's fourth president in a hotly contested election later this year is said to have wept uncontrollably when he learnt he had lost his money.

It took the intervention of a top ANC activist who's an old friend after he was informed of unfolding saga by an aide to the politician.

It was later established the politician never gave up in his mission and managed to see the witchdoctor courtesy of ANC activist and secured himself a talisman locally referred to as "mutti".
