They use.
Spirit as in schnapp, ogirisi leave(igbo, don't know d english name),uzuke(that part of palm tree used in roasting yam,I think its unfertilized or undeveloped palm head).
The rest I don't know.
Rain making is actually scientific.
According to a rainmaker,those things they release to the atmosphere hv ppties that disperses formed clouds tru wind, just like some leaves can conveniently kill u if u chew them or make u mad.
Its just that our pple unlike the westerners r yet to embrace civilization in matters like that.

They r always happy keeping a lot of things as secrets.t
Those that r guru in botany will and can conveniently do it.

Civil engineers in d house, how does JB hold rain while constructing road?

It's funny that people still believe this shait in 2013. After una go say dem dey abuse una say una no dey employable.
Any graduate that believes this needs a serious whopping.
Despite what we know about condensation and evaporation, people are still spewing nonsense.

BellaDonaFema:
The art of holding the rain is highly spiritual. Its not necessarily voodoo(juju).
In the Holy Bible, the prophets of yore(old) held back the rain too. An example is prophet Elijah.
The realm of the spiritual controls the physical. simple.
End of story!

Not that I believe in this but, why does the leaf-burner not eat. What implications has eating on the rain-holding?

I think rain making and rain control is more of a scientific exercise than the so called "JUJU" okijajuju good evening.
I will first start with moving the rain to another part or chasing it away. I remember sometime around 2002 when I was in secondary school. Julius bedger construction company wanted to construct an new road beside my school at UTURU abia state, it wanted to rain heavily that day and they've mixed their cement for the slabs to cover one big water drainage they made. The next thing we heard was a shot and there was red smoke in the sky. Do u know that that heavy rain didn't drop one bit till the next day. But all the neighboring villages experienced rain that day.
Its just like sending dry air to go and disperce or scatter the wet cloud that's gathering. If u know the water circle well. After evaporation, comes condensation but when u have enough dry air substance to scatter or disperse this moisture containing cloud and air, the moisture will go and gather some other place it finds ok and fall there. This is done traditionally. If u notice they always burn a leaf or something which sends smoke up to the sky.

Then bringing the rain. There a lot of chemical substances that are know to attract moisture some are in gaseous form and also exist in nature is some of these shrubs and tree we see everyday. When one is able to send up into the clouds this kind of substance, they will attract moisture and cos rain. This is how rain is made artificially. Cos when air carrying water "humid air" gather and presumably the area gets saturated, the next thing we have is condensation. That's it

PLS note: this doesn't mean that there might not be diabolic ways or bringing and shifting rain. All I did was to scientifically back some of the practices. Example, like the one I said JULIUS BEDGER did.
Thanks

P.S. J.B Has been holding the rain in Lagos for quite a long time now as it rains heavily in other states but does not drop at all in a coastal state.watch out for this,any evening you look up to the sky and notice the clouds colour has turned towards reddish colour just know they are holding the rain.
Re: How Do People Actually 'Hold' The Rain? by olasesi(m): 5:25pm On Aug 20, 2013
Well, I really can't say if this is possible...true there are no scientific evidences or facts to hold that, it may also be 'dangerous' to completely discredit the stories of the many people who claim this...what are the chances that few of the stories are true?....I'm not saying it's true because most people believe it...most people believe the earth was flat too...and most people were wrong....but u sure should agree that it's worthy of a 'look into'...
But one thing is clear...."It's dubious"
This claim and similar ones have always failed the "indirect test", simple questions thrown at them....Let's begin.
If the rain can be 'held', why (to be continued)
Re: How Do People Actually 'Hold' The Rain? by Nobody: 5:39pm On Aug 20, 2013
holding the rain is easy, it can be done in three ways

1. go to the club, spray money and make it rain, then stop suddenly

2. while you are pissing, contract your muscles and make it stop

3. during h0t s3x, when you are about to cum, withdraw, thereby stoping the rain that was about to be unleashed

THERE IS NO OTHER WAY

you have said it all.thank u for the explanations, I just hope nairalanders will learn from ur write up.
Re: How Do People Actually 'Hold' The Rain? by PAGAN9JA(m): 6:03pm On Aug 20, 2013
It is possible. Farmers around the world do it. I've seen it myself.

It involves you concentrating your spiritual energies on the rains, force that brings rain/clouds, etc., i.e., the Rain God.

You will have to perform certain sacrifices (since you are asking for something {Rain} )., and ofcourse rituals as well.

some people even dance to the Rain God to appease the forces (human-style). cool
