Strange frog paralyses man, 3 days after wedding

But, this was not the case for Gbenga Akinleye a native of Akure, Ondo State, whose marriage went sour three days after he tied a nuptial knot with his heartthrob, Sade in the early months of 2005.

Akinleye a former manager at Asejere Sawmill in Akure was hit with calamity while spending his honey money with his wife.

Narrating his ordeal to the Daily Sun, Akinleye, 35, said a strange frog fell from the roof top of a hotel where he was enjoying his honeymoon with his wife:

“When I saw the frog on the floor, I hit the left side with a stick and it threw it out of the room. Shortly after throwing it out, I suddenly became paralyzed on the left side.

“It was exactly at the left side that I hit the frog that was totally paralysed. My wife did not know what to do as she was shocked to the bone marrow.”


In attempt to get healing, Akinleye was taken to the state Specialists Hospital Akure, where he was rejected on the basis that doctors could not diagnose what was wrong with him:

“I was rejected at Akure Specialists Hospital on the ground that I was suffering from spiritual attack.”

At the heat of his sickness, Akinleye was dumped by his wife three months after the wedding and eloped with another man to Abuja.


The desire to seek solution to his protracted illness took him to an herbalist in Ogun State who promised to cure the sickness.

But, his joy was short-lived when the herbalist was trying to use his sperm for money rituals

Akinleye said, “When I got to that place, I thought that is where the solution would come from. But the reverse was the case. The herbalist asked me whether I can make love to a woman

“He asked a woman to come and meet me and rub my manhood which made me get to climax. The lady wanted to rub my manhood with an handkerchief which I rejected vehemently.

“The arrival of my mother was the saving grace as the woman and the herbalist were battling with me. It was at that moment I told my mother that I wanted to leave the herbalist place”.

However, Akinleye received a major boost at a church in Akure where he sought spiritual deliverance. It was at this church that Akinleye got to know that his former wife was the brain behind his plight.

“I was shocked when the pastor told me that my former wife was the one behind my ordeal. I have left everything to God whom I believe will fight for me”, he said.

Akinleye is recuperating gradually, as he has started walking freely with his two legs.
