How I Was Drawn Into Zamans And Sons
Before my conversion I left Zaria for Bauchi, where I collected some money for the allowances of our students in Ahmadu Bello University. While I was travelling, at the motor park in Jos, I discovered a vehicle that had place for only one more person and saw that a lady also wanted to take that place. But our eyes met and signed a contract of love. I declined to enter the vehicle and she declined too. Then I chartered a saloon car and she joined me. Fried chicken was the request of the young lady at Saminaka. I bought two for her.
When we arrived in Zaria I gave her 40 Naira so that she could travel to Kano, where she had earlier said she wanted to go. But she refused to take the money and insisted that wherever I will be she would remain with me. Wow! What miracle is there in sin? By then I lived with my family in Zaria. I persuaded this woman to go, but she refused. I went and booked a lodging for her in Zaria Hotel. The lady requested for Dubonet, so I went and bought two bottles for her. At one point in the banqueting a large snake, black in complexion, started to come out of the floor. I rose with the intention of destroying the snake, but the lady pushed me back. At this point I became weak. I saw what was happening but was unable to speak or to rise. The snake went round the room seven times. On the seventh time the lady went and knelt down, stretched her hands and the snake spat something on her palm.
At 11.05 p.m. I came back to my senses. I asked the lady what was happening, but she only brought out a complimentary card. This card bore the name of a secret organisation known as Zamans and Sons. Their location is between Bombay and Karachi. The area is a thick forest and the leader of this group is a real devil. When I woke up in the morning a 4.00 a.m. I could not see the lady any more. I went home and dropped my briefcase and set out for Kaduna. From Kaduna I went south to Lagos and in Lagos I boarded a plane to Bombay. On arriving at the airport in Bombay I met an old man with a passport-size photograph of me. He told me that he was waiting for me. We boarded a vehicle and drove to the shrine where I was consecrated for three days. These three days of consecration were spent without eating and drinking. After these ceremonies the old man told me that when I get back to Nigeria I should take a two Naira banknote and burn it on a 10 Kobo coin and then throw the ashes in the toilet or somewhere else. I left Bombay back to Lagos, and returned to Zaria. Upon arrival I did as the old man told me. On a Thursday after closing from school I found a ring under my pillow.
With all this I was struggling in search for power. But in all of it Satan went away with his property. In the process of worshipping the devil, whenever I heard that an organisation had power, I would go to see the devil and acquire such power. When I became a believer I saw clearly that all those who practice occultism will not inherit the Kingdom of God.
“Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor robbers, shall inherit the kingdom of God.” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
See also: “I wrote unto you in my epistle to have no company with fornicators, not at all meaning all fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you would need to go out of the world.” (1 Corinthians 5:9-10)
Since the Word of God states clearly that everyone should know about these things, then if you know it and refuse to adhere to it, remember, God cannot be mocked:
“Do not be deceived; God is not mocked: for whatever a man sows, that shall he also reap.” (Galatians 6:7)
“7 Anyone who has done an atom's weight of good, shall see it! 8 And anyone who has done an atom's weight of evil, shall see it.” (Sura al-Zalzala 99:7-8)
٧ فَمَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ خَيْراً يَرَهُ ٨ وَمَنْ يَعْمَلْ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ شَرّاً يَرَهُ. (سُورَةُ الزَّلْزَلَةِ ٩٩ : ٧ - ٨)
The secret about occultism is that, if you get involved in this wickedness, it is very difficult to come out of it. Idolaters change their idols as they change their wrappings. They are always in confusion and have no peace in them. They live a destructive life. But in Jesus there is peace in abundance. I believe, Christ does not lie in His promise to give peace.
“Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who trusts in Him.” (Psalm 34:8)
