Glitters

There was something about her that sure was wild

Nobody in the estate could place a handle on it

She was one of the prettiest teenagers in the estate

She was also one of the most sexually active

She had been sleeping with men old enough to be her grandfather since she was eleven

It started with one of their neighbor’s visitors during the previous Christmas break

The cousins came to spend the Christmas break with their neighbors

They all became friends

One thing led to the other one afternoon

She sat on his leg

He was fifteen

Rubbed herself against his thighs

He resisted a bit

Tried to push her away

She dipped her hand right into jeans and held him

He simmered

She pushed her breast into his mouth

He suckled nervously

It lasted for about twenty minutes

Then she stood up and left

She stopped going to their house to play for one week

He would come with his cousin and hang around with other kids

She knew what he wanted

She had taken his opportunity away and he regretted it

He wants a repeat

She hoped so

Eventually she went to their neighbours house on a Saturday evening

There was a party in the estate and all the adults had gone there

He was eager this time

She guided him until he got a grip of it

He was her first collection

She had been told to start out early

Her first hundred collections would guarantee her the crown

She needed to reign

She liked the experience

They did it again a few times before the holiday was over

Then she started picking the young boys one after the other

It took about two months but the word eventually spread

Men always loved free stuff

She expanded her territory also to her school

By the time she was 15, she had slept with three teachers and many students

Her feat eventually got to her mother

Her mother was a vice-principal in another school

Her mother ranted and raved

She denied that she had ever slept with anybody

Her mother took her to the gynecologist

She was outted, her mother got mad, beat the living daylights out of her

Changed her school

She wrote WAEC right under the nose of her mother

She wasn’t deterred!

Her mother was as ignorant as they come

She didn’t know the stakes were very high where she was

Her mother was worried by her actions

What could have prompted this nonsense behavior?

Was her daughter a nymphomaniac?

Her mother came into her room in the middle of the night

They had a heart to heart

What do you want? Where did I go wrong?

Her mother’s questions were sincere but pointless

She didn’t give a hoot what her mother thought

She had an agenda and her mother cannot stop her

Her mother found out she had serviced many of the boys in the estate

Her mother rented another apartment far away

They relocated

When they got to the new estate

Her mother begged her

By them she was 16, awaiting her JAMB result

Please don’t bring me to shame

Your father’s heart would break when he hears this

This is so unfair

He father was a sailor

He spends only three or four months at home every two to three years

She was the first of three children

Her mother had done an excellent job until the madness started

Within a month, she had unleashed herself on the estate

Every Saturday, she would walk into the neighborhood park where the young men played football and pick her victim

She settled for the ones with cars at the beginning, someone to do quickie with in the back seat

As she got used to the environment, she started meeting guys at home or in a hotel

The odd thing was, the guys never seemed to feel anything but adoration for her

She would get to the football field and all the guys would gather around her with hopeful eyes

They never question her choice and were always eager to be picked

They bought her gifts, gave her money, it was as if they were all spell bound to her

They called her Queen and she ruled them all

Any other lady sleeping around like a female dog would have been shamed or ridiculed

Not her

She slept with the sons and eventually started sleeping with the fathers

Her mother didn’t know what to do

God please, what do I do with this girl!

She had been grounded, beaten, threatened, talked to and insulted

She responded to nothing

One Saturday morning, she went to the football field as usual to pick her mate for the day

One young man was also at the football field

His family just relocated to the estate

He was fresh blood, she approached him

He fell for her immediately but he didn’t have a car

She promised to come and see him at his house later in the afternoon

She didn’t mind paying for the hotel room even if he didn’t have money

She got to his house

His mother was at home

She knelt down and greeted his mother

But his mother saw through her somehow

“What do you want? Why are you here?”

The young man, already dressed up rushed outside

“Mum, she is my classmate, she wanted to show me round the neighborhood” the boy explained

His mother said No! My son is not going anywhere with you!!!

WOW!

Nobody had ever resisted her charm before

Who was this woman, why did she react like this to her?

That night, she got to the meeting

She told her members about the woman

“I think she knows my secret! She has to die!

She embarrassed me, she had to die!”

The members of her coven agreed

She was their queen, the snake that feeds them all

If the woman was the fresh meat they needed, so be it

She called the name of the woman

The woman appeared with a whip and flogged all of them silly!

She woke up feeling sore all over her body

Her mother rushed to her room and found her body all swollen

She was rushed to the hospital

Doctors tried to give her injection

The needle kept breaking

They told her mother

“This is a spiritual affliction”

She was taken to a church

Pastor told her to confess

The pain was terrible

She opened her mouth

“I am the queen of so and so, the whole village of so and so worships me, I collect sperm of human beings to lay my eggs in the coven. Many of my eggs have hatched into beautiful ladies like me! Everybody I have slept with will never be able to father a child, I have taken the cells of their sperm forever…

Married men who have slept with me would lose their male children as soon as my eggs hatched in the coven. It is only their daughters that are spared of this dangerous consequence.”

She talked and talked and talked

“How did you become a witch?” the pastor asked

“My grandmother” she responded

Her mother was shocked

All the men in the estate heard the confession

Panic everywhere

Mothers pulled their sons aside – I hope you didn’t hit that pocket!

Married men who had slept with her ran helter-skelter looking for solutions to the evil consequences she predicted

She was delivered after much prayer and fasting!

Some of the men got help in time and saved their children

Others didn’t

Many of those who slept with her are still sterile

Some were not

The pastor invited the woman she had confrontation with

“Madam, she said you were the one she wanted to kill when all hell broke loose”

Woman: As soon as I saw her, I felt in my spirit that she was an agent of the devil sent to derail the destiny of my son, I cannot confirm that I appeared to her anywhere but I had a premonition that I had to pray throughout that night and I did. I prayed in the Holy for several hours until the restlessness i felt in my spirit lifted

PS: This event happened in Ibadan in 2002

The lady is now a born again Christian, happily married with children

She was brought into witchcraft as a child by her paternal grandmother

She became the queen of the coven at the age of sixteen

Beware of indiscriminate sex

Not all that glitters is gold
