Your question is really odd. It's not bad going to your village every day, if that's your thing.

Besides, you yourself haven't answered your own question - how often do you go to your village?

I like my village more than anything in the world. Infact thats where i escape to each time the hasle and noise in the city gets to me. I have not been bewitched yet and i m not expecting that. I have my compound fenced above 11 feet with barbed coiling wire at the top. No one comes unless you have something important to discuss. My mum resides there too . It is the most quiet place i have ever been. Above all, it is 5 minutes drive from Enugu City center. So yes, i go there every other weekend. Call me tomorrow afternoon and ask me where i am.

I havent been to my dad or mums village since '89 when my Grandad died. I don think my dad himself has been back there for well over 15 years.

shocked Are you afraid of the fly-by-night people? grin

I prefer to go once in a year, around mid-January, when all the frenzied-rush-to-go- the-village people would have left and everywhere will be calm and idyllic.  smiley

Just don't like it embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed embarassed

Pele!! My advice is try and find a way to take them there someday. So it would be left for me to decide whether they still want to go or not.

Thank God for my village but I just don't like it there. Guess everyone else in my house loves going to the village.

I guess majority of you posters are Igbo. Where will you go suppose Nigeria divide because most of you normally clamour for sovereign state of Biafra

@ least 2x in a year. No place like HOME.
Re: How Often Do You Go To Your Village by Afam4eva(m): 5:16pm On Feb 10, 2012
It unfortunate that many parents don't take their kids to their village. I can see a situation whereby in the near future some people won't know where they come from. And in a farther future people will not even know their ethnicity.

@Topic
The first time i went to my village after a long time was in 2003. I have been there four times ever since and i enjoy it whenever i'm there. The last time being in 2010/2011. My village is in the coal city and will soon be wiped out by development. I hope some part of the village life is preserved.
Re: How Often Do You Go To Your Village by Nobody: 5:19pm On Feb 10, 2012
I ve no business with the village. Those i know in my village are dead and those that are alive,i do not know. Strange place!

Isn't that what your parents told you? Go find out for yourself.
Re: How Often Do You Go To Your Village by Pongo(m): 5:31pm On Feb 10, 2012
I have found out myself, I have never passed any exams since primary school and it has been confirmed that the people responsible are from my village,

You've not passed an exam in your life because you're dumb and not because of the village people. Btw, how where you able to use your brain to know that the village people are responsible? Or does the jazz only work when you're writing exams?
Re: How Often Do You Go To Your Village by Nobody: 5:37pm On Feb 10, 2012

Reading your reply: Im just giving you a honest opinion of yourself 'Dumb' and 'Lacking in Class and Upbringing' grin
Re: How Often Do You Go To Your Village by Nobody: 5:53pm On Feb 10, 2012
Villagers are the worst set of people in terms of jealousy and envy infact they are dream killers.the best way to go is anytime they are expecting you dont go anytime they are not expecting you go,if anybody ask just tell him/her you are just passiing u didnt plan to come and if the person ask you to come to his house  for proper greeting just leave him and travel back.

At least i'm not the one who called myself dumb. I wonder how you got to know about the internet. Those villagers should knack the nail well well so that you'll turn to a goat cos that what you're behaving like right now. Okpoko.
