A Colleague’s Response To Killing Of Rams On 3rd Mainland Bridge by Akinomoakin021: 7:36pm On Jan 11
3 Rams were killed on 3rd mainland bridge before commencement of repair works. I first heard about this practice 11 years ago on new quarries and big projects . Still wondering why it still goes on.See my WhatsApp conversation with a senior colleague below

If you knew the amount of sacrifices made before the commencement of the construction of third mainland bridge, you wouldn't be surprised that sacrifices are made to commence a major repair. Even Julius Berger, Cappa and D 'Alberto did many sacrifices before commencing many projects in Nigeria. Blood is the currency of the spirit realm, from the ram you kill during Sallah, and the sacrifice of Yeshua Hammasciah, the Lamb of God - appeasement is a thing in the spirit world because the spirit realm controls the physical realm

Why do you think, the religion and culture was the first thing the colonials first destroyed. They came first as friend - surveyed the religious landscape then they struck.

If you are referring to God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, please He doesn't accept burnt offerings or blood anymore.

Our God requests praises and prayers. God loves praises and doesn't share His glory with anyone. Jesus has already paid the ultimate price.

That ultimate price didn't it require blood or the blood of Jesus we invoke today, wasn't it from a sacrifice

Am beginning to believe all these stories we normally hear in the streets of powerful water deities who sometimes takes the lives of construction workers while they are constructing bridges. There was one I heard of a Julius Berger white german engineer who sacrificed himself by entering the river niger when their work was continuously being hindered by the river deity during the construction of the first river niger bridge.

You respect the white-mans culture, but you're always ready to criticize yours.

Africans, Nigerians in-particular are hypocrites.
Around here, it's only Nigerians that come here and copy the westerners.

Other African tribes, Indians and all other tribes, hold firm to their culture.

I spit on Nigerians grave.

Why do you think Jesus shed his own blood ❣️ on the cross, blood is a mystery. The entire spirituality of this world is blood. Even christians will shout the blood of Jesus. Remember the passing over when God told Moses to use lamb killed to make a sign on the doors of the Israelites so the angels will pass over. Some people will say this is bullshit but they can't even use their brain.

The educated engineers did not see anything. The deluded illiterates are by far the vast majority and they insisted on carrying out their rituals. The educated engineers simply let them have their way to make them happy and psychologically be in the best frame of mind to work

What about Jesus that sacrificed his own blood and till today we still call on the blood of Jesus. When Cain killed Abel, remember God telling Cain that Abels blood ❣️ is crying from the ground. Blood is very spiritual.

Una go just siddon for una room dey type wetin una no sabi! SMH! The Chinese don’t start any project until a sacrifice is made such as the pouring of libation, setting off fireworks, lighting of red candles, offering of rice, pork, fruits and gin to their ancestors. Sacrifices are offered before any project can begin. The Koreans would put the head of a pig at the entrance of a construction project, offer prayers before the commencement of the project. Some Chinese even go as far as setting up a small prayer corner with a deity, candles and incenses on the foyer( lobby) of their companies.

This people are about to work atop a large body of water that will cause a lot of disturbance to the marine ecosystem (if you understand what I mean). The only way they can work without interference (averting machinery & equipment malfunction) and losing workers, according to traditionalists, is to appease the god/goddess of the marine kingdom. Even Julius Berger does it, so don't think it's because the contractors are Chinese.

Again, Jesus has already paid the price with His blood. Hence, God doesn't ask for the blood or material killing of anything else. Just praises and prayers.

The death of Christ changed everything about the way God relates with His people. Anyone who still slaughters anything in God's name isn't of God. This isn't up for debate.

You are right but it's not the whole world that believes in Jesus right? The world is more spiritually phenomenal than you think. The Chinese, Korean even Indian don't believe in Jesus atleast a maximum of them don't so leave who believe in using ram to use their ram.

Funny how you think other countries don't have their own occult and juju which they serve. Even the British whom you refer to are more occultism than us. Demons and witches are not restricted to the dark continent bro.
I witnessed when they were slaughtering huge rams and spilling the blood when they were constructing mowe- ofada road and it sent chills down my spine! Educated engineers o, doing blood rituals in broad daylight!

gradually. A ram wouldnt dry up from starvation less than a week. I believe the ingredient is the blood. They leave it there alive,and it dries up before a week. The place of the sacrifice is the extreme end of the quarry.
