Hi,

There are a lot of African countries wherein they believe in witchcraft. Here in Ghana some tribes practice juju and many people do believe in it. I am not 100% convinced myself, but I know my elderly mother-in-law believes that her husband's car accident which killed him 20+ years ago was because of juju put on her husband by his own blood relatives (lots of jealousy on their side). To this very day, she practically has a stroke if my husband tells her we're travelling to the cemetary for put flowers on his father's gravesite, as she is fearful that his family will put a juju curse on my kids (the grandchildren).

Fortunately, nothing has happened since our last visit over 18 months ago, but as I say, she freaks if she even thinks we're going in that direction.
