Honestly! Why will a parent disfigure d face of his child with some nauseating tribal marks??
I think its some act of wickedness... like,,"my parents did same to me so, u must gt it too (((even wen dey knw it'll destroy d child's beauty)))

I went out to buy some stuff this morning {Lagos} and while I was going back home,, one well shaped lady was walking towards me. This lady was well endowed with everything. But lo and behold! By the time I got to see her face clearly, I almost cried. What kind of wickedness is this? Why will her parents do such a thing to her? Hers is even worse than the 3 pictures I added to this post.

Pls hang that ish! Culture my foot! Sorry for using that word "wicked" "devilish" will be better. You disfigure a young child's pretty face and u'r here saying culture??

Moderate ones are okay. Very small ones. But when you start digging someone's face like u'r learning to be an artist,, my dear...that is wickedness

Important message Op. I guess its a culture of the tribe. But some traditional practices should be stopped in the 21st century. I can only imagine the kind of resentment this kid will have when he/she grows up cause life is tough without the facial markings as I'm sure it leads to confidence issues for these kids.

Not in this 21st century again.

yeah..its a culture thing..and I am saying any parent that has the heart to indulge in such is [size=50pt]wicked!![/size] That confidence thing,,,its gna affect them a great deal! And marks are nt even fine! Some even look like a masquerade cos of d yeye marks... D first picture →→see how the old woman is knifing that poor child

They still do it o. Very many of them. This one I saw this morning was just too much

you can't call them wicked because in that time, it was fashion and culture. But if a parent does that in this time, it is unfair. Already there us a cultural shift.

Do u reside in Lagos? They are countless here. Both old and young

Would u stop barking!!!.firstly,not only yorubas give tribal marks,one of d pictures u ave dere is not yoruba.secondly,d culture of tribal marks is almost fading,dose who ave tribal marks are mostly older folks and young ones who live in dose indigenous(agbole) area(dat is where u probably saw d girl or u are just making up d story). U should change dat senseless topic of urs cos atleast 80 percent of yoruba parents dont do dat anymore....u shuld direct ur agitations to parents who sell their children in baby factories instead of ranting about fading culture dat most people no longer practice,so save us ur idiotic stories,ko to ma gbo bi aja igboro.

Tribal mark what ever it is ,is a matter of choice and its existed in yoruba culture even before OP father was born talkless of u.

Most yoruba don't engage in tribal mark anymore.Even if so,that's Yoruba headache not Flattie

Just one girl and you want to give us heart failure? Did you just come to Lagos or South West for the first time?

Please keep quiet. Tribal mark is becoming a thing of the past. It's no longer embraced and appreciated. It wasn't even about wickedness, it was about ignorance. That it was done on one girl you saw, doesn't mean every Lagos girl has tribal marks.

Babe, you need to go out more or at least watch television biko.
