If a pregnant woman sees a masquerade, she will give birth to an ugly baby wearing masquerade's costumes. If a young child bends and looks backward between his or her legs , he or she is calling his or her unborn siblings and the mum would soon be pregnant. If u accidentally kill a cat or dog- bad omen. If vultures don't attend your ceremony, u have a big problem. If you wear a white overall outside in the night, ghost will follow u. If you break firewood on Sunday , the moon will descend and ascend with you to the sky. If you sweep the compound from the bush or road to the house instead of sweeping from your house to the bush or wherever,u r inviting evil spirits. If you plant maize without eating, it will bring forth empty comb. If you hear your name and u answer to it without seeing the person that called u, u have answered a ghost's call. If you drop a mirror in the market and look at it, u will see ghosts walking in the air. If you carry a stone on your head or someone knocks your head, u will not grow taller than the way u are. If you swallow any fruit seed, it will grow on your head. If your food falls on the ground, don't eat it again because Satan has touched it. If a lizard swallows your shed milk tooth, no other tooth will grow and replace it. # the list is endless# 1 Like |

Most ot those superstittions are not really superstitions. They are just a way of frighten children so that they stop doing bad things. You no say little children no dey hear word. If u no frighten them dem no go stop. When people say if someone step on ur spit u ll have sore throat. It is just to make a child clean up his spit or stop spitting everywhere altogether. When they say,' if u beat someone with a broom, his pen1s will shrink'. It is because broom in d hand of children is a dangerous weapon. They can mistakingly blind themselves with it. |

bushdoc9919:civilisation is some white men coming into our country to tell us we are archaic, naïve and barbaric.....civilization is exploiting our resources, making us slaves through colonialism and neo-colonialism, civilisation is making us depend on their failed but called modern ways of life. Civilisation is modern slavery.. |
