Yoruba_Jesus: Aunty Stella pls borrowing me one of your armoured BMW. I want to take a drive n see what they dont want me to see Cowmilk, so you're now Yoruba_Jesus? All hail the saviour of the Yoruba's. Please sanctify these people with some divine milk to give them divine protection while they disobey the gods of the land. You and I need to take a divine walk during the said time and peep what they don't want these people to see. Protect me with your bosoms. And keep me under them and make me warm when it's cold at night. Thank you, Yoruba-Jesus. |

lakhadimar: @op what sort of outdoor business activity do you want to engage in at 10pm to 4am? What do you mean by asking that question So U support a fetish festival that would even affect movement. I didn't spend millions for a house only to be told when not to come out. Imagine !! I can't even switch on my light. Nansense. |

stillwater: I've heard of them taking people to the police many times. There was always a story in the newspapers about nitel and nepa cable thieves being arrested by the oro in Central Lagos and being taken to the police (this was back in the 80s and early 90s). 2 Likes |

Polio: This thread reeks of tribalism and bigotry.That plus illiteracy and ignorance. Imagine someone questioning why I should be outside at 4am, a grown man and in 2013? Backward country with backward mentality and backward people. Nigeria isn't ruled by a monarchy and I still find it hard to understand why the Oba or whoever it can issue a decree under a functioning Democratic government, well it's all a joke anyways. The anti igbos and anti Yorubas on this thread make me wanna delete my account, evil people and mindset 2 Likes |

You definitely can't disrespect the culture/tradition of the land and tell people what they've been doing to centuries has to stop because it doesn't agree with your thought-process. It's a free world, if you don't like it, move to an area that's more suitable to you. There are people out there who don't like how Churches disturb the peace of everywhere on Sundays (a day for people to rest), but you can't stop people from doing their own thing. Same for those who don't agree with Muslims and whatever they do. It's a free world. 4 Likes |

lakhadimar: Some flat-headed-akpu-chopping goons who have no regard for the culture of their host will soon be deported. I dare you to go to kano and tell ado bayero to stop the durbar festival or go to birnin kebbi and tell them to stop the argungu festival because it disturbs your business activity Argungun fishing festival is a tourist attraction. It shud even be encourage. Have U heard them kill any body there ? 2 Likes |
