A Binga businessman claims he was ordered by a traditional healer to 'eat' a razor blade in a ritual meant to bring back his missing brother.
Mattheus Mombe Siakabizi is now in a dilemma to explain how he managed to chew and swallow a razor blade without injuring himself.
According to B-Metro, the ritual has since backfired on Siakabizi as his family now accuse him of being a wizard.
"I cannot even explain how it all happened. But a Hwange traditional healer whom I had approached for help ordered my friend Albert Mwembe and I to eat razor blades.
"It is not true that we ate razor blades for witchcraft reasons. It was after we had been convinced that if we ate the razor blades we were going to dream and be shown the whereabouts of my missing brother," said Siakabizi.
"It even sounds strange and we thought it was not possible to eat razor blades. There were three razor blades, the healer tool one and put some concoction before swallowing it. He showed us his tongue and he did not have any cuts as one would expect,".
