Speaking to APGA members in Awka, Soludo emphasised the health risks involved in such practices.

The Governor clarified that his administration’s crackdown criminal native doctors, not traditional worshipers.
He condemned deceptive practitioners who promise quick wealth, warning youths not to fall for such scams.
He cited cases of Anambra youths jailed abroad for drug trafficking after being misled by so-called charms
“No native doctor can make you rich without hard work.
