BLOOD TAPPERS
Sometime ago, while working at the International Airport in Lagos, Nigeria, I was getting back home and had to pick a cab at the usual cab pick point. While I sat in the cab waiting for other passengers to board, the Holy Spirit asked me to just look at a particular direction cautiously without deviating. I did. There was an auto mechanic standing by a dirty, old, greasy tool box full of jambed equipment. He had opened the lid of the tool box and seemed to be watching at a particular man standing somewhere by. After what seemed a while of gazing at the man, he then forcefully closed the lid, while spiritually plucking off the man's head into the box. Since it was a spiritually concluded deal, added to the fact that I could see the man's head spiritually roll into the box, the man surely must have died that day, or a few days after, because spiritually his head had been chopped away.
I rarely pity victims of accidents in Nigeria, because they know so much. It is usually true that the accidents are always caused by fellow passengers who intend to sacrifice lives in the process since themselves know they would not be hurt, which is why I don't hail any accident victim in the country whose life is spared in an auto crash, because they might have actually been responsible for the death or injuries of others who died in the accident. Consider this: I was in a commuter bus one day in Calabar, when some of the passengers who practiced this form of witchcraft began projecting at the driver and dragging the steering wheel with him spiritually, while quarrelling and disturbing. The man, who was also a wizard, had to clear the vehicle, warn them of their projections, which contained some of their intent, then drove away. This is how accidents are caused primarily in Nigeria, especially in commuter vehicles: one or some of the passengers in the bus or cab project(s) towards the driver, cease(s) the steering wheel from them spiritually, then heads it in a wrong direction, causing a crash. They are always bold to do this, since themselves would be the survivors. I am envisaging a situation where passengers will not make calls while in commuter vehicles in Nigeria till they alight, since it is a major projecting avenue. Also, all vehicles will and must contain an INTENTIONER which reports to a central MENWORK OR SPYWORK CONTROL UNIT.
A certain time ago, a lady in Nigeria was involved in an auto crash. When rescued, her rescuers had thought of a conveying her to a nearby hospital, but she insisted even with a haemorrhage she wouldn't get to a hospital but to a church as she wouldn't be safe in one. Her will prevailed. Just hinting of how deathly Nigerian hospitals (public and private) and the medical practitioners there have become.
What I actually have to discuss here is about blood tappers. You must have seen these mostly Fulani or Hausa boys who go about engaging in unapproved and dirty manicure and pedicure. You may not know what they do in real essence. But, they are blood tappers. These blood tappers are only patronized by witches and wizards and should never, in the interest of any reasonable person at that, be patronized by them. These witches and wizards who pretend to be receiving manicure and pedicure services from them are actually targeted persons on arrangement to deliver to them, as witchcraft blood bank services persons, both blood they drained from others the previous night, and compulsorily theirs. They are actually the blood tappers, whose duty is to go about tapping the blood gotten the previous night by witches and wizards through witchcraft practice, and some of that of the witches and wizards themselves from these witches and wizards, with the painful aspect that they pay for the blood tap in a disguise of paying for the manicure and pedicure service. You have never seen some of these manicure and pedicure services beneficiaries just turn pale and sad when they see these manicure and pedicure men while calling for their "planned services" about which they have no option as captives, except they should be killed. And I think that is one of the benefits to derive and crosses to bear for being a witch or wizard. Yet, others, who are usually adept at getting large volumes of blood from witchcraft practice the previous night, do this donation with glee and some nascent pride. And you know getting blood spiritually is no small task? Don't ever be deceived that they are receiving or giving manicure and pedicure services. While the blood tap does not involve injuring the person to whom the manicure and pedicure service is offered, it just requires touching their fingers or fingernails and toes during the manicure and pedicure. And I bet, most every witch or wizard hate the whole experience and cringe inside every time they see these manicure men, but just have no choice than to donate their own blood or those of others tapped the previous night.
