In the Volta region of Ghana, followers of the Ju-Ju ancestral religion believe
that giving their daughter to a fetish priest will atone for the sins and crimes committed by relatives.
Priests call these women "wives of the divinity." Among their community, they are known as "Trokosi."
To an outsider, however, the treatment of these women appears less than that of a wife and more like that
of a slave.
