THE LARGEST JUJU MARKET IN THE WORLD IS IN AFRICA
The largest juju market in the world is the Akodessewa Fetish Market in Togo.
This is the location where the Babalows and Dibiase, people involved in black magic or doers of Voodoo can find virtually anything or item they need to perform their rituals.
WHAT IS VOODOO?
I mention the term Voodoo, well, it is a way of thinking that conflicts with s religion, philosophy, and the concept of medicine.
Voodoo is the idea that everything is spirit and that’s the base of the concept.
It is a religion that came from West Africa, the principal source of other African diaspora beliefs in the Americas with names similar to its own which include Brazilian Vodum, Cuban Vod, Dominican Vud, etc.
It has stayed despite centuries of Christian and Islamic operations in the Gulf of Guinea from Nigeria to Ghana, the voodoo religion still stays.
However, some Christians and Muslims today who do not identify as worshipers of voodoo continue to participate in the practice of both the Abrahamic faith and Voodoo.
When there is a need for an urgent fix to a situation or problem, people tend to turn to the voodoo priest for help with a charm to help them attain their objective. And when it’s done the voodoo priest usually gives a list of items to be bought. This is certain for voodooists.
THE LARGEST JUJU MARKET IN THE WORLD IS IN AFRICA
Akodessawa Fetish Market is compared to no other fetish market, as all the items that may be needed to carry out any ritual or make powerful charms are found in this market.
The market is set and arranged with several wooden tables, covered in mounds of unimaginable animal parts ranging from skins, heads, teeth, eyes, paws, limbs, etc.
Several animal parts can be found there, dead birds, crocodiles, monkey heads, elephant trunks, and numerous other items gotten from dead animals.
Akodessewa Fetish Market remains the largest voodoo market in the world as people from different parts of the world go there, not of their tribe, race, or color.
Individuals go there seeking favors, lucky charms, fruits of the womb, break of family curses, and all sorts of predicaments.
Akodessewa Fetish Market remains one of Togo’s unusual attractions.
