Am just wondering how a matured God fearing human being will go around with bunches of broom shouting Change!

According to the Wikipedia, the first known reference to witches flying on broomsticks dates to 1453, confessed by the male witch Guillaume Edelin.
The concept of a flying ointment used by witches appears at about the same time, recorded in 1456.

An African American wedding tradition incorporates the use of the broom. The custom is called ” jumping the broom”. The custom originates in marriages of slaves in the United States in the 19th century, but its revived popularity among African Americans is due to the 1976 novel Roots:

According to Broomshop.com, Wizards, magicians and magic have captured minds for centuries. Brooms have been associated with each. Here is a
broom worthy of any wizard. It will bring magic into any child’s life. Spellbinding decorations remind us of past, present and wizards to be!

Today our change leaders carry this type of broom. The traditional Witch’s Broom is made of an ash handle and bristles from birch twigs. The twigs are tied onto the handle with thin pieces of willow wood. There have been a few written accounts of early Witch’s decorating their brooms with flowers of the season tied on with some type of decorative string or later using coloured ribbon. A practice that is resurrected today by modern Witches evident in a group of Political party in Nigeria called All Progressives Congress(APC)

Early Celtic pagans associated the broom with Fairies, possibly because of its relation to the wood and a common belief in forest spirits. Some stories tell of a Witch entering a forest and asking the Faeries to lead her way to the perfect tree where she can collect a staff for a broom. The idea is to enlist the help of the magical folk and ensure the enchantment of the broom once it has been fashioned.

The Witch’s broom is one of the few tools that are seen as a balance of Divine forces. It is both part of masculine energies (the phallic handle) and female energies (the bristles). Because of this, the broom was and still is commonly used in Hand fasting rituals (marriage ceremonies) Now seen in Political Parties. It is also used as a gate or door before a ritual space. A witch would draw a magical circle, enter the circle and then place the broom over the doorway to keep out unwanted energies or people as an example.

While being used for clearing an area for ritual work was the earliest use for a broom, it became an important tool for Witch’s during The Burning Times of Europe. During this era Witches would use a broom to hide one of their most important tools, the wand. It is also a tradition that brooms have been used by some as receptacles to harbour a particular spirit temporarily. This could be done to remove an unwanted spirit from one area and then release it far away in another place. Or it could be used to utilise the energy of a spirit for a specific spell when the broom is used as a wand.

A few ancient brooms have been discovered to have hidden compartments in the handle. These small hidden places held combinations of herbs, oils, feathers and a variety of other things thought to be part of a ritualistic spell. The hidden concoctions added to the energy of the intent that the broom was to be used for.

Today brooms are used by innocent Nigerians who are brain washed screaming for change they already had.
I plead with all our so called change agent to let’s us not follow multitude and do the wrong
