Two
sisters have literally experienced hell on earth after their own father cursed
them following a spat between him and their mother.
The
father of the ladies identified as
Bernard Theuri, had a bitter spat with his wife. This made him curse
their two children in anger after he accused his wife of being unfaithful in
their marriage.
The
man's action has caused the hapless girls eleven miscarriages in four years
According
to The Star, Bernard Theuri from Maua, Kenya cursed his two daughters on May 2,
2012, claiming that they were not his biological children.
“He
threw dust at them and made his declaration. Since then, my two daughters
cannot carry a pregnancy to term. This has forced their husbands to separate
from them,” said Ruth Mwakachiu, his former wife.
Mwakachiu
further explained that the curse made one of her girls miscarry seven times and
another four times in her second daughter.
“The
curse did not befall my third daughter because I was still pregnant with her at
the time,” added Mwakachiu.
In
four years, the girls lost a total of eleven children.
Mother
and daughters were later kicked out of their home by Theuri who demanded his
dowry back as they were married under customary law. He got it back through the
clan elders.
The
family drama ended up in court after
Theuri was excommunicated from his clan in May 22, 2012 for cursing his
children.
He
was in court yesterday, Monday, May 30 suing three clan elders; Henry Taitumu,
Stanley Mutura and Robert Mutuma who sent a letter to Njuri Ncheke about his
removal from any congregation with the intent to defame him.
“He
also wants the court to lift his excommunication but two clan elders said he
cannot use the courts to lift the ban unless he paid the traditional fines for
placing a curse,” published the Star on Tuesday, May 31.
Theuri
is supposed to pay with a bull to lift the excommunication and a he-goat to
reverse the curse.
While
not many believe in it, black magic has been known to be used in a number of
purposes.
As
is popular in most Kenyan towns, practitioners of the dark arts advertise their
services on how they use witchcraft to restore love, lost love, s*xual ability,
finances and a number of other reasons.
