VILLAGERS of Bua Lomanikoro, Tiliva and Dalomo burnt objects used for witchcraft on a pyre at the Lomanikoro village grounds after a spiritual cleansing on Thursday night.
A collection of wooden and polyvinyl chloride yaqona bowls were chopped by axes and burnt openly as villagers denounced all forms of witchcraft in their village. Other items burnt at the cleansing ritual included spears, fans, mattresses and pieces of tapa.
