CHAPTER ONE
Every human has an obstacle in their life, it doesn't matter what it is.
I don't have to call names but this little girl faces a lot. A girl was born into the African community particularly Ghana in the Northern Region.
The little girl possesses great talent and intelligence and these caused her a lot in life.
As witchcraft is real in Africa, this was one of the challenges in her family which even migrated her parents, she and grandparents to a different community thinking that they were safe from the calamities in the family but rather fallen in to an open trap.
This girl was affected with a certain spiritual disease which is the possession of Jinns( Spiritual beings). These Jinns are ( referred to as Alizini in the dabgani local dilet in Ghana) living the other realm of the universe as how human lives. Muslims understands this Jinns better because it part of our Religious beliefs. At the age of 13, she was being attacked by the Jinns and all this was because of future she possesses. This attacking is usually taking place in school sessions. All this doing was by her grandma, trying to block the future the little girl possesses.
She was very disliked by her grandma. It turns out that her grandma was a witch and was even trying to take off her own son to get access to the little girl but she couldn't achieved it.
At a certain point, her own parents turned against her, harassing her. She left to stay with her uncle which also lead to a different issues. She was raped by her uncle and maltreated so she has to go to her parents. She was disappointed and verbally abused by her boyfriend after having sex and knowing she wasn't virgin. The pressure on her was too much, she had to stop schooling for sometime. One thing that keep her burning was fate, she always believed in herself. She continued school and completed her secondary school level, waiting for her results.
