The witchcraft conference organized by the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) started off today November 26 in spite of oppositions.
Recall that after several reactions from Christians and Christian associations such as CAN, PFN among others to the proposed conference on Witchcraft, the theme of the conference was changed from “First International & Interdisciplinary Conference on Witchcraft” to another theme that doesn’t include witchcraft. However, witchcraft will still be discussed at the conference
The conference which was shifted to a bigger hall, Princess Alexandra auditorium because of the large turnout of participants reportedly began with an opening hymn by Christ Church choir of the university.
Eyewitness and participant, Eze Leo Obinna wrote;
“Nigerian Universities are religious centers. Academics is hollow. There is no philosophy.
Academics were forced to change the topic of the Witchcraft conference. Sorry for Africans
Report says that a group of Witchcraft Human Rights Information Network had a stand outside where they sold witchcraft-related books and items.
