The man identified as Shakar Lucas claims that the recent demand is driven by food vendors, pastors and commercial sex workers rushing for the liquid to do rituals and attract more customers.

According to him, water stored after cleaning dead bodies is being sold for millions of cedis on the black market to those who need it and has become a profitable business venture for a number of people who work in the morgues.

Lucas confessed in an interview with Sammy Kay that apart from the special water secretly sold, people also buy from them the hair of dead people which they use for similar purposes.

“People are using the hairs and water from dead bodies to do some spiritual power. Some women use the dead body water to cook food to sell.”

He disclosed that he has been in the mortuary business for the past nine years.
