Shelby Riley · Answer 2

C.) It is an evil spirit that reincarnates in her womb.

Explanation:

An ogbanje is a spirit that causes the death of the children in which they are incarnated, that is, that provoke their own death. This spirit can incarnate successively in children generated by the same woman and causing her death during the gestation phase, or soon after birth, but always before the age of nine. The ogbanje is interpreted as an evil spirit and a true curse.
