Petty Corruption Abetted By Witchcraft
Independent Online | Submitted by: stroomf
"The police said they were investigating the source of the about $4M Edem reportedly spent on hiring a sorcerer to hex and kill another development official, while steering more lucrative state contracts to him... Local media also reported that Edem burnt nearly $2-million in local currency in a black magic ceremony designed to precipitate greater funds later."

Dammit, I'm going to go to Africa and hire myself out as a sorcerer. I've been called one anyhow, might as well make some cash for it.

For that kind of money, they better be able to part the red sea or turn my girlfriend into a hot looking babe with big hooters. And they better have a magic wand that shoots pretty sparkly shit out of it too.

Garg, all you need in Africa to be a sorceror is some penicillin and LSD. Look, I cured your gonorrhea by putting this head trip on you. Now I can take down your business competitors. They ain't the sharpest knives in the drawer. Otherwise the Africans would have developed guns first and American slavery would never have happened.

>Police said Edem was "incensed" when none of the work contracted to the witchdoctor had been achieved and had demanded a total refund. The witchdoctor refused, saying Edem still owed him about $2-million in arrears< Gawddamn I´m gonna be doing witchcrafting shit in Africa in notime. Great job, no guarantees needed that your magic works and then you can demand more cash from the complaining customer. Excellent!

Maybe he got the wrong kind of witchdoctor. The kind that treats sick witches? How about witchnurses? Do witchdoctors have those?

"Edem burnt nearly $2-million in local currency in a black magic ceremony designed to precipitate greater funds later." 2 Million in "local currency" which is equal to about $ .25 in US Money." "We have made progress, we've established a unit of monetary value, which is the leaf. Owing to the large amounts of leaves available we have all become enormously wealthy, but owing to the rate of inflation which is I gather, 2 decidious forests buys one ship's peanut, we've decided to embark on a program of fiscal responsibility and burn all the forests down!"

Under the real name used, "voo-doo" is now an internationally-recognized religion. We should give them enough money to send missionaries to Muslim countries. They could end up chopping heads off of little dolls
