The Dilemma Of A Christian Boy
23.09.2017 LISTEN

In a village of Atiavi-Agorvinu in the Volta Region of Ghana, a powerful village fetish priest Tsikor Zewu Zowonu, passed away on May 27th 2017. The debacle of the enstoolment of his successor to be; Sylvester Zowonu, has led to the fear of the acrimonious dead spirit bringing deadly diseases to village. The decision of the village clan elders to appease the spirit was to choose Sylvester Zowonu as their next village Chief fetish priest. The chosen Chief fetish priest, Sylvester Zowonu, currently resides in the United States of America. Nevertheless Sylvester’s mom Celestina Zowonu, is vehemently protesting the selection of Sylvester to become the next village Chief priest, because of their Christian faith. Even though, Sylvester communicated his decision to the elders that because of his Christian faith, he would not be involved in the worship of gods. The family elders led by Glimevu Klikor Zowonu is vowing to make Sylvester the next Chief priest, because Sylvester cannot defy the gods and their tradition. They are threatening to go any length to bring Sylvester back to Ghana to be their Chief Fetish Priest.
