Nothing works in Nigeria any more. Electricity has dropped to less than 900mw, water no dey run, sanitation remains poor; now even our tried and tested juju has begun to fail us. What's happening?
We relied on our local technology or juju to fight the white man from colonizing us, used juju to find missing aircrafts.
Does anyone remember the good old days when men were men and you could walk on River Niger, walk through walls, and cause untold confusion among the army and police by making them speak totally different languages, thanks to our local juju technology?
Unfortunately, things have fallen apart and our potent juju has tended towards impotence.
If only these guys in Akwa Ibom who went to unleash their juju on the local police command had understood the weaning powers of their technology. Does anybody have any suggestion on how to increase the potency of our juju?

Our juju failed us, kidnappers tell Okiro

The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Mike Okiro, and other senior police officers watched in awe on Wednesday as suspected kidnappers narrated how they tried in vain to secure the release of one of their own from police station with the aid of juju.
The suspects, Idorenyin Akpan, Aniefiok Sunday and Aniefiok, told Okiro that they had gone to the Akwa Ibom State Police Headquarters in Uyo to plant charms against the commissioner of police in the state and the investigating officers in charge of the case of a Lebanese who was kidnapped.
They claimed that their friend was arrested at Ikot Akpan, Abia Village, Uyo, on June 28, adding that the essence of the charm was to cause confusion among policemen in the headquarters to release their colleagues and evade justice.
Akpan, who spoke on behalf of his colleagues, said, “We went there with our juju which was prepared for us by the man who we have paid for the job. We paid him N7,000.
“But we were surprised that instead of the juju working in our favour, it worked against us. That was how we were arrested.”
Seven other suspects were also paraded by the police boss for kidnapping while three others were accused of cultism and unlawful possession of firearm.
The first set of the suspects, Ubong Akpan, Bassey Akpabio, Uwen Akpan and John Effiong were accused of kidnapping three Chinese and were paid N18m before they were released.
According to Okiro, “These suspects kidnapped the three expatriate staff of AKC Alphast plant, at Akampa, Cross River State.
“They demanded and received ransom amounting to N18m. The group engaged a native doctor to assist them to escapee arrest.”
