Mama Toyin’s father could not produce a child from his six wives, and when he married his seventh, who already had a son, the chances looked promising. But after failing to bear a child from her, the genetic anomaly was now apparent in the father rather than the seven mothers.

Desperate; still, they approached the goddess of “Ari-ovin” river, offering appeasement sacrifices. Ultimately, after nine months, Mama Toyin emerged. From that feat on, she was the subject of numerous rituals, one of which required her to bathe only with cold water, away from hot water at all costs. Hence, given her title as “Olomi tutu,” which translates to “A person with the potential to attain spiritual enlightenment.”

Every eight days, she had to pay a visit to that very river along with all the other children sourced from there. Their mothers would often come naked, carrying large pots on their heads filled with water, singing praises to the river goddess, who would manifest herself physically as a giant fish. All the children were thrown into the river for the goddess to play and dance with, irrespective of age. Once satisfied with the offering, she would varnish into the deep, springing out fresh water used for drinking and medicinal purposes.

As she approached adolescence, she was not retaken to the river, for she now belonged to an ‘Emere’ (familiar spirit) group. The group met in an anthill. Whenever Mama Toyin was set to retail food (rice and beans), she used this anthill as the location for her commerce. She would knock at a door hidden from natural vision, revealing a beautiful and technologically advanced city.

The leading figure in that city was their spiritual mother, a large woman with multiple breasts all over her body. She would prescribe herbal and demonic medicine through witch doctors to solve problems she initially manifested and received a large portion of all the sacrifices offered to witch doctors and herbalists. She would inquire about Mama Toyin’s family and buy all the food from her to feed the children in the city. Mama Toyin was never bound to stay with her. However, she had the liberty to decide. Once, she spat with her father and chose to remain in the anthill for seven days to punish him. She would observe search parties looking for her and often visit her house, invisible to the natural eye. She returned home on the seventh day due to her mother’s distress.

After Mama Toyin was married, her involvement with the familiar spirit group reduced dramatically. She began experiencing difficulties in her health, marriage, and finances. The money would disappear mysteriously, along with merchandise and jewelry. Her health deteriorated, and her children rebelled against her. Life soon became too much to bear. Childbearing was initially difficult. The minimum age difference between her children is ten years. After switching from one witch doctor to another, she approached Christ for a solution.

Soon, she went through deliverance and was set free, and the miraculous began to take place in her life regularly.
