Nigerian Widow beaten and branded a Witch gets make-over in new video; fight for justice still ongoing

Popular Activist, Harrison Gwamnishu has reached out to Mrs Amarachi Okechi, the Nigerian widow beaten and branded a witch.

Just recently, Mrs Okechi suffered the demoralising treatment at the hands of people in Umueghu community of Abia state.

The widow was later rescued and taken to the hospital and has now been discharged.

Her debilitating treatment was met with serious condemnation from Nigerians after the humiliating video emerged online.

A couple of hours ago, Harrison Gwamnishu shared a new video where the woman was captured glowing up after she was given a makeover.

The woman was also seen singing merrily in appreciation to God for saving her life.

Harrison said he has opened a request for donations so as to further rehabilitate the woman.

He wrote in the video:

“After Mrs. Amarachi left the hospital, she couldn’t go back to her community because of her abusers and she was also traumatised.

“I instructed they bring her to my house in Asaba, Delta State. She needed to heal from her past and I offered to be her son and took the burden.”

Harrison Gwamnishu who brought her plight to the public last Sunday, August 28, also cried out for justice.

He wrote on Instagram;

“It’s been more than two weeks since we shared this widow’s case and the Abia State Commissioner of Police who happens to be a woman is yet to order ffor the arrest of her abusers.
