Celebrities or specifically creatives such as musicians and actors using spiritual means which is termed in our part of the world as ‘Juju’ to supplement their performance(s) and to allegedly incapacitate the work of their competitors has become a flip-switch issue within the showbiz fraternity.
Juju is commonly practised in West African countries such as Nigeria, Benin, Togo, and Ghana, although most African people share its assumptions.
Many great African creatives have been accused of using it while some have also confessed to using ‘juju’.
Renowned Ghanaian artiste, Charles Nii Armah-Mensah better known as Shatta Wale, in an interview in 2018 confessed that he once used ‘Juju’.
Popular female Ghanaian musician, eShun also alleged that a Mallam once requested her pubic hair for rituals in order to produce hit songs.
One can again recall that Ghanaian rapper, Tinny alleged that some musicians have taken his CD to Benin to supplicate charms against his career.
Some Ghanaian gospel artistes have also been accused of using ‘Juju’.
But legendary highlife musician, Bessa Simons believes the only ‘Juju’ in music is rehearsal.
