by Abiku according to FAMA in Yoruba term is for a child who dies from infant Death Syndrome.
That is, any child who dies in infancy and is reborn only to die and be born into the same family again and again. In Yoruba belief, abiku is a result of:
A spell on the family, or
An emere’s incursion into the family
Emere is a child who has the spiritual ability to induce Infant death Syndrome for himself/herself.
Fama also stresses that, the family of the abiku uses a traditional autopsy, which includes consultation with Ifa, to determine the cause of the child’s death.
Once infant Death Syndrome is established, the victimized family receives spiritual immunization against the syndrome.
The parent will then give the new baby a symbolic name; the name will vary in meaning.
