Miss Akweley Duamoh, a fishmonger, is said to have emerged from the sea at Prampram at about 0400 hours on Tuesday, after the making of libation and performance of some rituals.
Osheku Wornor Nartey, the traditional priest of Oshekuwem of Lower Prampram, where Duamoh hails from, confirmed the phenomenon to the media and indicated that the woman disappeared at a time she was being prepared for initiation rites to become a traditional priestess.
According to him, the disappearance was not reported to the Police because after an intense search for her, the “gods informed them that she has been carried into the sea.”
Osheku Nartey added that rituals were performed persistently at the beach for the past two months, until the gods possessed somebody to inform them of the intended return of Duamoh.
He stated that they saw a thick cloud at the beach Tuesday dawn after which they made libation and performed rituals from at about 0100 to 0400 hours when she emerged.
Duamoh, who emerged from the sea naked, was led to her family house, where a goat was slaughtered and libation made to welcome her back home.
The mystery attracted people from far and near to the family house to catch a glimpse of Duamoh, who has successfully gone through the needed initiation rites and now named Osheku woryo.
