Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that a lady identified as Tolu Joseph shared her heart-wrenching experience of over 20 years.
The lady said she bed-wetted for over two decades. Speaking with BBC News Pidgin, she said she tried a lot of superstitious acts to ensure that she stops bed-wetting but all to no avail.
Tolu said when she entered secondary school, she thought she would stop bed-wetting but it continued till she gained admission into the university. According to the young lady, her parents and family members tried their best to solve the problem but it persisted despite all their efforts.
In her words: "I was asked to pray to grinding stone whenever I was going to bed."
She said whenever she was ready to sleep, she would tell the grinding stone to ensure that she didn't bed-wet.
In spite of this, the bed-wetting didn't stop. Tolu, however, had a breakthrough with the help of the internet when she went online to read about her condition.
