(Video) Chief priestess calls on river god to keep calm after floods hit Gomoa Okyereko
In a bid to appease the river god Ayensu, the chief priestess of Gomoa Okyereko has poured libation, pleading for calm after recent floods devastated the area.
A video circulating on social media shows the chief priestess performing the ritual, urging Ayensu to keep the river’s waters at bay. The floods, which followed heavy rainfall, have displaced several residents and damaged properties.
The chief priestess’s plea comes as a desperate appeal to the river god to restore peace to the community. Local residents have expressed fears of further flooding, and the chief priestess’s intervention is seen as a spiritual effort to mitigate the disaster.
The video has sparked a mix of reactions on social media, with some praising the chief priestess’s efforts and others calling for more practical measures to address the flooding issue.
“They should find a real solution for their problems instead of this nkwasiasem. Eiii bibi ni!” commented one user.
“This is our roots as Ghanaians, but the whites came and told us these things are bad hmm,” said another.
Some users were more sarcastic, “If e come Galamsey then the gods make dinnnnn” and “Dem No Go Fit Do Something Or Pour Libation Make Ghana Do Like America?”
Others called for a more balanced approach, “We shouldn’t rubbish other people’s beliefs, but we should also find practical solutions. How about building good roads and drainage systems?”
One user asked, “What would they gain from these practices? What do we do to the chief priestess if the flood doesn’t stop?”
