I never knew I was an ogbanje (reincarnating spirit) until I began to see this signs.- Confused woman shares.
My name is Chinecherem born into a family from the eastern part of Nigeria.
Growing up, I was always referred to be my grandmother who came back to life (reincarnation) and I was fondly called her name as well.
But I never knew it was deeper than that, as I enjoyed the attention I got from the family but I didn’t know the implications.
I am a young and pretty girl loved very much in the family because of the belief that I was my grandmother who reincarnated and was born again into the family.
I grew up so fast and life began to show me that it was deeper than I thought, I became very stubborn, I wasn’t listening to anyone again. At some point, I decided to stop going to school.
My parents who are strong Christian’s became worried because they don’t know deeply about tradition and things that were supposed to be done to calm the spirit in me down.
it got worst that I began to disrespect not just my parents but the whole family members and outsiders as well, it was a big blow to the family. My family is well respected but I became the odd one amongst everyone, the one who always causes the Neigbours to come and seperate fights from my house.
My parents could not bare the Shame anymore and they began to seek for solutions. we went from churches to churches but because it wasn’t a church thing as it was said “give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to him”.
We didn’t know that we were supposed to go the traditional way to tame the spirit down, we later decided to go the traditional way and the Native doctor said that the spirit was angry because I wasn’t following the part that I was supposed to follow.
Currently, we’ve done everything spiritual but I still get attacks, sometimes my clothes goes missing for days and a lot happens to me spiritually.
I’m seeking for solution at this point, please what do you think I should do?
