Drama Unfolds in Ogbomoso as Young Woman Rolls in Muddy Water
A bizarre incident occurred on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, in Ogbomoso, Oyo State, when a young woman, suspected to be under the influence of drugs, rolled in a pool of muddy water with her legs raised. The incident drew a large crowd at Okelerin junction, sparking concerns and speculations.
Eyewitness Account
According to an eyewitness, the young woman was walking towards the junction when she suddenly dived into a crater filled with water at the edge of the road. “She was walking up from GB axis and then as she reached the junction, she dived into the crater, started swaying, and gulping the muddy water ravenously,” the eyewitness recounted.
The eyewitness, a shop owner across the road, initially thought the woman was a devotee of the Osun river goddess due to her behavior. “That was our initial thought that she was an Osun worshipper; in fact, Osun priestesses later came to the scene but they saw she was not of their sect and so they left.”
The Drama Unfolds
The incident lasted for about three hours, attracting a large crowd. The woman’s behavior was described as uncontrollable, and she was seen twirling and gulping the water. Eventually, she regained her senses and was helped to stand. Her first question was, “What am I doing here? What is happening?”
Relatives Intervene
The woman’s relatives later arrived at the scene and guided her home. The incident has raised concerns about the safety and well-being of young people in the area.
Rumor Debunked
Some people in the crowd claimed that the woman was a victim of ritualists and that her private part had been cut off. However, a woman who inspected her found that her private part was intact, debunking the rumor.
