PAGAN 9JA:


you know scientists made a new discovery. that you are an a$$hole .

what has culture got to do with civilization? The Japs,Indians and Chinese still maintain their culture and religion even though they are the oldest and most advanced civilizations today.

The whiteman has destroyed our way of life, therefore today, it is our birthright to mkae use of his inventions. today one cannot get a decent job without education to fill our stomach. The bush is empty of animals, our way of life is gone. they destroyed our system of government and livelihood. Now its our birthright to make use of their stuff to come up in life.

If today we could survive without education, I would not waste my time studying.

btw we Maguzawa dont live in caves. maybe your tribe lives in caves. we live in HOUSES.

we had one of the greatest kindoms in the past in Hausaland.
The deluded one is here!
Watch him rain curses and abuses as usual.

Dotman01: Undressed Adam and Eve Still Alive in Taraba, Nigeria

This may look like a screen shot from the popular movie 'The gods must be crazy' but hey!! this is real and yeah, they literally still live in the stone age. Poverty and diseases ravage their land, like locusts.
A good number of them still dress in the manner of, the Biblical Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden -- stark Unclad -- with fresh leaves for a little covering. You are welcome to the top of the Gerinjina mountain in Gashaka Local Government area of Taraba State.

It was like a story from Mars when a casual talk to the hearing of this reporter indicated that there was a community up the mountain that lived worse than those of the Koma people who were discovered in the mid-1980s by a group of National youth corps members in the then Gongola State, now split into Adamawa and Taraba states. While the Koma community resides in Adamawa State, the new Stone Age people are in Taraba State.


They are called, the Jibu people and they are descendants of the Kwarafa Kingdom who lived for centuries in nine communities scattered around on the mountains in Gashaka.

Historical accounts have it that the people lived together with their fellow brothers in the kingdom until about 1807 when Fulani Jihadists invaded the kingdom.

They were said to have run to the mountain top where they now live and are completely cut off from other tribes, and by extension the whole world. Not even the activities of the colonial masters reached them, largely because of the difficult terrain of their new abode. The mountain top is characterised by rivers, deep gullies and huge rocks.

Just like any other group of human beings, the Jibu people have their ways of life. These include collective circumcision of boys born within the same age group, a ceremony performed with the use sharp objects.

It is considered a test of strength and character for their boys not to cry during the ceremony. The circumcised are kept on bamboo beds and covered with fresh leaves that are gathered and burnt after the wound has healed.

For a young Jibu man to get a wife, he must serve the family of his bride for five years. Nonetheless, the marriage is determined by the capacity of the woman to conceive. This is measured by a dried long firewood that is set on fire for at least three months, within which if the woman does not become pregnant, the simple communication is the gods do not want the marriage.

Pregnant women work on the farms to the day of their delivery.

They have a communal life and are ruled by the Waziri Garinjina, Tann Shidin Zunbi, who confirmed in an interview with the Nigerian Compass on Saturday that maternal and child mortality rates are high among them.

The Jibu people are neither Christians nor Muslims. Rather, they believe in their own gods and the ancestors.

In an event of violation of their natural laws by any individual, animals are slaughtered to appease the land. It is also a similar story during every cropping season. The harvests are brought before the Waziri for sacrifice to the gods, after which their brand of liquor is prepared for everybody to drink in merriment. Incidentally too, the Jibu people believe that some gods are not friendly with women. Thus, throughout the period of ritual preparations, women remain indoors to avoid being exposed to the gods who could be harmful to them.

When our correspondent visited Gerinjina, their condition of living was worse than that of the much-talked about Koma people. There is no access road. They drink water with animals from the same rivers. In their scattered settlement system, there is no school around except for some missionaries who have a thatched space for that purpose but is yet to have any student. After a day's job on the farm, their women still have the task of grinding raw corn with heavy stones before food is ready for their male counterparts.

Those people are like that because they were cut off from the rest of their peers. Can't you lot see where it was asserted in the article that they were part of the Kwarafa kingdom and they escaped to the mountains during the fulani invasion of the 1800s. They probably used to wear clothes but had to result to the way they're now because of isolation. You make do with what you have - that's human survival instinct 101.

Why do you lot think the eskimos and amazon tribes of Brazil are the way they're? It's because of isolation. Best believe they were probably more civilised in the past than they're now. If Europe never had contact with Africa and Asia - most Europeans will still be running around butt-naked like these people today as well. So save me that crap about thanking the Europeans for doing nothing. The same Europeans that never used to shower(most of them still don't do).

Thank God they have been found. Bring them into the new world and let me add their own contributions to humanity!

Shalom!

And how do you know that they are not beset by these problems you mentioned?
When next you are making an assertion as above, use phrases like: probably, perhaps, maybe etc. Stop sounding conclusive over what you have little knowledge on.
