The University of Nigeria, Nsukka, has bowed to pressure
after a number of Christians and Christian organizations reacted in outrage to
the proposed Conference on Witchcraft.
Despite the fact that
a literary and social critic explained what the conference is about and said it
is not a gathering to promote witchcraft, Nigerian Christians still continued
to condemn and pray against the conference.
As a result, the
organizers of the conference have had to change the theme to avoid a scene and
to appease religious Nigerians.
Though the theme of
the conference was changed from "First International &
Interdisciplinary Conference on Witchcraft" to another theme that doesn't
include witchcraft, witchcraft will still be discussed at the conference which
holds tomorrow in UNN.
