Nigerian gospel singer, Nathaniel Bassey, has recounted an encounter with a ‘juju man’ who attempted to cast a spell on him but failed.
Naija News reports that Nathaniel Bassey made this known during a worship session on the ‘Hallelujah Challenge, stating that the incident occurred on an expressway and marked the second time the same individual had approached him.
Bassey said the man knocked on his car and began casting an enchantment, hoping to influence and command him to “do something”, but he responded with laughter before declaring some Bible verses.
The gospel minister said he cited scriptures affirming divine protection, including a passage that says, “Touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm” and “There is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel,” to emphasise his belief that the attempt would not succeed.
Bassey said he eventually stepped out of his car and ordered the man to leave immediately, but regretted the action because he would have detained the ‘juju man’ until the arrival of the police.
He said, “I don’t know how we knew, but this was the second time that this same guy, the ‘juju man,’ was coming.
“One time on the express road, he came and knocked. He was casting an enchantment, hoping that it would influence me. He was commanding me to do something, but I just stood there and laughed.
“I said, didn’t they tell you that as they went from one kingdom to another, He suffered no man to do them wrong; He rebuked kings for their sake, saying, ‘Touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm’?
“I just regretted that I should have kept him there for the police. While he was there, he was waiting for the spell to work on me. But Numbers 23:23 says there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any divination against Israel.
“I came out of my car and ordered him to get out of here, you dirty devil, quick. I’m not saying this to boast, but while we do not glorify the devil, there is wickedness in the world.”
