    • 1969, Milo Rigaud, Secrets of Voodoo, page 83:
      A person has only to serve the baka incorrectly to have it turn against its owner and do him irremediable harm by reason of the very duality of its composition.
    • 2001, Jennie Marcelle Smith, When the Hands Are Many, page 77:
      Because a baka can destroy a family's (or even a whole neighborhood's) well-being, there is great interest in catching and destroying them.
