I just listened to this and it sent chills down my spine. This is what the our languages sounded like before their corruption and bastardization by English.

The first Igbo one is from Arochukwu while the second one is from Oka. Both sent chills down my spine. Imagine how we, over a century later, are able to still listen to the voices of people long dead. Bekee bu agbara n'ezi.

Are these the things i would have been bowing down to if the mercies of the Lord hadn't stepped in by way of the preaching of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ?

Then, i would've been in deep shit... but, Lord, i thank you.

This is nothing but the entaglements of the devil operating under the guise of tradition or culture
