The deceased identity has not yet been disclosed
A Ghanaian woman in her mid-30s has reportedly died in Canada following an extended period of fasting and alleged overreliance on a substance known as ‘Yesu Mogya’ (translated as Jesus’ Blood).
According to reports, the woman had been fasting for several weeks and was said to have depended solely on ‘Yesu Mogya’, a liquid some individuals believe possesses spiritual and healing powers.
The deceased, whose identity has not yet been disclosed, is reported to have consumed large quantities of the substance during her period of spiritual devotion.
According to a narration by another Ghanaian woman in a viral video, the deceased’s body was discovered in her apartment in Toronto, Ontario, with signs that she had been deceased for several days.
Her death has sparked concerns about the potential risks associated with extreme fasting practices and the use of ‘Yesu Mogya’ which has gained popularity among many Ghanaians both home and abroad.
The Ghanaian community in Canada is reportedly in shock following the woman’s passing, with many calling for greater awareness about the potential risks associated with extreme fasting practices.
In the viral video, one woman is heard cautioning individuals to prioritise their health and well-being, particularly when engaging in spiritual practices that may pose health risks.
