Igbele: Evil Forest Where Itsekiris Dump Corpses Of Witches, Wizards by Obascoetubi: 10:12pm On Jul 31, 2015 |
The Ofuobu family of Ode-Itsekiri Town in the Warri Kingdom of Delta State recently lost their matriarch who died at the ripe age of 82. She lived a fruitful and illustrious life, leaving behind six children, many grand children and great-grand children. A successful trader, all her children are university graduates who equally turned out to be successful in their various professions. Her immediate and distant family members are proud of her because hers was a life worth celebrating. (Ofuobu is not the real name of the family. As a condition for granting this interview, the first son demanded that the family name not be mentioned. And on the request of this reporter, he came up with the fictitious name of Ofuobu, which literally means keep it secret in Itsekiri.) http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/07/igbele-evil-forest-where-itsekiris-dump-corpses-of-witches-wizards/#sthash.Ejzc7aaG.dpuf 2 Likes |

This should be in the culture section. It seems 'Ife' in Itsekiri is definitely cognate to "Ifa" in Yoruba. "Bibi Ife" would mean "Bibi ifa", that is to "ask ifa". Is Ifa knowledge practised among the Itsekiris ? Cc. Macof 9jacrip 15 Likes |

I can now understand the magnitude of task the early missionaries had to accomplish in bringing in Christianity (light) into the country. These kinds of "evil" forest were offered to them to build churches and schools needed for evangelism thinking that they will be killed but they cleared those portions of "evil" land with whistling and praises. |
