Ghana Through My Lens Posted on December 30, 2013 Leave a Comment The fetish priest from Kukuo camp for accused witches who performs purification rituals on the accused witches. Here are three generations. Amientu Iddrissa (left) has been accused of witchcraft and her daughter (right) has come to live with her mother with two of her own children. The daughter’s husband left her when Amientu was accused. Amientu worries about how she will get by when her daughter gets remarried and leaves her alone in the camp. Skenka Kwame who was accused of witchcraft along with nine other people. One of them was a man. Men who are accused of witchcraft must also be purified but they are allowed to return home to their lives immediately after. Women who return risk their lives. Senetu Kojo’s only possessions. Senetu Kojo has been at Kukuo for three years without any family help. Despite having her national healthcare card she can’t get the care she needs. The local pharmacy does not carry the medicine she needs and she does not have the means to get to the closest town. The paste on her face is an herbal remedy she uses instead.
