Well. I don’t know that either. I guess it is a new development and vocabulary in Wichcraft. Let those well versed in Wizardry like Asiedu Nketsia help us with an explanation.

Oh, superstition. Unfortunately most of our media persons who should subject any incidents to strict Interrogation rather resort to sensationalism.
When shall we be out of ignorance, especially our media personnel.

Car thieves have several ways of getting into locked vehicles, and there's nothing magical about it. What's unfolding here is a display of gross ignorance, fanned by a Ghana media that is always quick to pander to unfounded claims of witchcraft or demented lies of quack prophets packaged as prophecies. The Police need to have some sense knocked into their heads, for no court will entertain a comical charge of wizardry against any accused person since wizardry is nothing but a figment of one's imagination. Witchcraft and juju are fake, as fake as the silly prophecies of religious lying quack prophets.

So where is the wizardry in this story? And which part of Ghanaian laws talk about wizardry? I wonder what charge will be brought against the old man.

Some cars can be locked from 10k miles away as long as there's WiFi or satellite . Home and car alarms can be monitored on a mobile and the door opened and closed remotely. This man is a thief. An old man saw my sister leaving her car without closing the door and he rushed to the car only to find me seated at the passenger side

Kwame Angel, he has been placed in custody for HIS SAFETY not for wizardry. This is to prevent the people from harming him.

When would we stop fooling. Its only in Ghana that every dementia patient is a witch or wizard.

No wonder Ghana smells.

About 7 years ago it was on the media that Techiman was the headquarters of witchcraft in mother Ghana. Why many witches and wizards in that part of the country?
