Get-rich-quick syndrome cause of rise in ritual killings – Lecturer - www.asempanews.com

This, he said has led to the get rich quick syndrome in society.

He said the rich-quick attitude of the youth is part and parcel of the rise in ritual killings.

He questioned why more and more Ghanaians are becoming religious yet these activities are on the rise.

He called for the need for people to question the religiosity of Ghanaians and asked “who are those engaged in some of these heinous crimes in the country”?

The lecturer noted that anytime some of these ritualists are arrested, they mention their sponsors as politicians, government officials, pastors, and worthy people in the community among others.

He said these in reaction to the news of harvesting of human organs for some alleged ritual purposes in the Wa municipality of the Upper West Region.

speaking with Korku Lumor, host of 505, the evening news and analysis programme on Accra-based Class 93.1 FM on Wednesday, August 3, 2022, he said rituals must be understood from a sociological point of view within the hearts and minds of Africans because rituals are part of Africans.
