Faith's Fight: Nigeria's Witchcraft Accusations

Faith, a Nigerian teenager, was accused of witchcraft at thirteen, forcing her to flee her home. Now nineteen, shes pursuing a degree and dreams of becoming a doctor. Despite laws against witchcraft-related child abuse, over thirty thousand Nigerian children have faced similar accusations in the past two decades. Evangelical pastors and witch doctors fuel this phenomenon, charging fees to exorcise children. Organizations like CRARN provide support, but progress is slow and accusations continue.
