00:00In the heart of a small Yoruba town, where the echoes of ancient traditions blend with
00:10the hum of modern life, two men found themselves ensnared in a web of desire and danger.
00:17This is the story of Taiyu, a resourceful mechanic, and Mike, a dedicated taxi driver,
00:26the widow who became the unwitting center of their rivalry.
00:30Taiyu, known for his skill with engines and his charm with words, had his eye on a duke,
00:38a widow who had barely begun to mourn her late husband before seeking solace in new
00:44arms.
00:45But Taiyu wasn't the only one captivated by a duke.
00:50Mike, despite having a beautiful wife, a benny, and two lovely children, found himself
00:57drawn to a duke's newfound freedom.
01:01His wife's beauty was unmatched in the town, making his infatuation with the widow all
01:07the more puzzling.
01:09The villagers whispered about a duke's haste in seeking new love, barely three months after
01:16her husband's death.
01:18Their disapproval was palpable, but a duke remained unfazed.
01:23Taiyu, feeling threatened by Mike's interest, resorted to an ancient and feared Yoruba ritual
01:31known as Magan, the thunderbolt.
01:35This potent spell was meant to protect a duke and deter any man from touching her.
01:45A benny concerned, Mike you must be careful, the paths you tread are dangerous, think of
01:52our children, Mike dismissive, don't worry, a benny, it's just harmless flirtation.
02:01One fateful evening, Mike visited a duke, and beknownst to him the Magan spell lay in
02:09wait as they lay together, the spell activated.
02:13Mike's body jerked violently, Mike panicking, what's happening to me?
02:20Mike began to somersault uncontrollably, flip one, flip two, flip three, each flip closer
02:29to doom, Mike desperate, clinging to bed pole, don't let me die like this, a benny my wife,
02:38I'm sorry, my kids, please forgive me, he keep repeating, a duke screaming for help,
02:46a duke panicking, help somebody, please help, the neighbors rushed in, but the power of
02:53the spell was unstoppable, Mike's body twisted and turned, completing the seventh fatal somersault.
03:02With his final breath, Mike's regret was clear, the Magan had claimed its victim and the village
03:10was left to ponder the dark forces at play, a benny and her children mourn the loss of
03:18a husband and father, a stark reminder of the consequences of straying from one's path,
