*an odd looking telephone number can cause instant death if it calls and you pick

*human beings can transform to animals (kwara police arrested a goat some time ago)

*human beings can fly

*eating mango and garri can cause death

*eating kola nut can insulate one from the scourge of Ebola

*drinking salt and water of bathing with a saline solution prevents ebola

*saying things like "it might rain" can actually make it rain

*a human being can birth a horse! goat! etc

*a women can carry a pregnancy for years

*eating some leaves and having some incisions can stop knives and knives from cutting you

*having a cat at home takes away diseases from your family.

The list is endless.

Have you ever wondered why these silly beliefs are so pervasive and prevalent ?
