‘Invisible sex’ frightens teachers

Lake Kariba SiavongaTEACHERS at Nashongo and Makaba primary schools in Siavonga have threatened to abandon the schools for fear of witchcraft.

The teachers have packed their belongings in readiness for departure if the wizards and witches continue with their acts.

Chief Sinadambwe of the Tonga-speaking people confirmed this yesterday.

The traditional leader said the teachers have complained of sleepless nights and bad dreams allegedly caused by wizards and witches.

“The male teachers complained that they have been having sex with women they cannot see. This has been happening to them for about three weeks,” he said.

Chief Sinadambwe said the same incidents were being experienced by female teachers.

1. There's a spate of this kind of report every few years.

The Sudanese were up in arms a number of years ago because of penis stealing, which is apparently a complaint that surfaces every once in a while. They'd go to some self-appointed expert who'd say who stole their penis and give them an amulet or mutter an incantation--for a fee--to have it restored. Cheaper than Viagra.

Then it spread to some other country, forget which. At one point it was a Jewish conspiracy.

2. K&R for being weird. But then, the US is full of climate-change-deniers and we think we are

so well educated.
