A CHIVHU family is regretting their children’s “success” after one of them was reportedly attacked by goblins for making it into the national chess team that travelled to Namibia recently.

Narrating their ordeal, Esther Tichaona, grandmother to twins Natasha and Natalie Choko explained how it all started.

“I was living in Chivhu with my two granddaughters who both play chess.

“Everything was going on very well until they were set to go to Namibia if they won the national championship.

“Before they participated in the national championships, Natalie was attacked. She said she would see things and she suddenly decided to drop out of the team just before they went to Namibia.

“However, Natasha decided to pursue her dream and she vowed that she will go as she was the captain for that team,” she said.

Gogo Tichaona continues:
“When they went to Namibia that is when it all started, we were told that it was so bad to the extent that she could not continue playing.

“They said they would sleep around 2am every day until they came back. They said the situation was bad that it also affected the other children.

“We went to some spiritual people who were helping us from Zimbabwe and they would call and help her over the phone.”

Natasha was ranked in lower percentile overall after she only played two games which she won.
The team returned home on December 25 and more strange things unfolded.

“When they returned from Namibia we went to people who we wanted to help the child. Each time she is under that attack she speaks in different voices,” gogo Tichaona continues.

“Mavoices avanenge vachitaura nawo unotonzwa kuti uyu ndinhingi uye vanenge vachitotaura kuti ungatangire vana vedu kukwira ndege iwewe ndiwe ani. Uye vanototaura kuti chess yacho uchaitambira kudenga.”
