Depict - Female Nigerian inmate

A prophetess, Edna Lovely Worleru, has died two days after she was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment by a Rivers State High Court in Port Harcourt.

WITHIN NIGERIA had reported last week that Worleru, a prophetess with a church in Rumuche community in Emohua Local Government Area, Rivers state, was sentenced to life imprisonment for preparing a “poisonous” substance for one Onyema Bright who asked her to make love potion for her to administer on a prophet name Isreal Georgewill who she had an interest in.

Unfortunately, Israel Georgewill, a prophet in another church in the community, died after the love potion was given to him.

The murder case was instituted in 2012 but Onyema Bright and Edna Worleru were sentenced to life imprisonment on September 16.
