Idowu Phillips, popularly known as Mama Rainbow, a former Nigerian actress who is now a prophetess, has shared how one of her kids once tried to persuade her to become a witch so they could become rich and powerful.
The actress revealed in an interview with Daily Trust that she struggled financially at the beginning of her career, particularly because she had to raise her children alone after Femi, her husband, passed away a few years into their marriage.
Mama Rainbow recounted how one of her children, who at first disagreed with her religious views, suggested she become a witch so they could become wealthy.
She said, “It was tough; after prayers, some of them would always cry. Whenever one of my sons saw me with a Bible he would ask what I was doing with it. At a point, he said he would take me to where I could become a witch and I agreed. He said that once I became a witch we would be okay.”
Mama Rainbow went on to say that after she gave in and went to the location with him, her son eventually dragged her out after realizing the cost.
She said, “I agreed and he took me somewhere, but before God and man, when I got there and they told me the requirements, I was shocked. They said it was the child I loved the most that would be used for sacrifice.
“I told the person that it was the child I loved most that brought me to the place. At that point, my son held my hand and said it was time to go home.”
