mollytinrox: Here are a few:
*if you spit on the ground and you don't cover it up with sand, and some fellow steps on it, you're bound to have sore throat.
*if you have sex in the afternoon, you'll birth an albino.
*if you're pregnant and you eat plantain, your child's head will have ridges. If you eat okra or snail, the child will be sluggish and drooling!
*If you're lying or sitting down and you're pregnant, and someone crosses over you, your child will look like the person.
*if you're pregnant and you go out @ noon without a piece of metal or rock, evil children will enter your womb and you'll birth them.

these ones,classic!
Dunno if they are ever true though...

basking4me: The throw your tooth with 7 stones thing was trouble for me oo.. cos I almost didnt have any teeth left in my mouth at a stage in my life.. The lizards had my dentition for dinner.

My aunt told me that if a woman throws away a Millipede, it will come back to where you threw it from.but if a man throws it away, it will not return.

[quote author=lilkech]in those years in lagos anytime we saw cattle eaglets flying in the sky we would raise our hands to them and wave our fingers furiously while singing something like "se-ke-le-ke, se-ke-le-ke sometin sometin" and just like magic by the time the birds fly by we would have white streaks in most of our finger nails.


This one works 100%


-- i agree wt u, dis is absolutely correct, i did it n it worked. it was later in life d thing got faded out

If somebody bites you and you rub some fresh okro on it, the persons teeth falls off
if you put on the light (lantern)when its raining thunder will trace the light and strike anybody seated close to the light
if you put your hand in somebody's hand and suck it, you are sucking the persons blood
if a married woman make luv to another man other than her husband she falls sick and dies if she doesn't confess (i think this works in some part of Nigeria)
if you have sour throat, go to where three roads meet (Orita meta) and rub salt, the sour throat will Automatically be transfered to the first person that step on it
If you set fire on somebody's shit, the person's Anus will pull out
If you spit on the ground and somebody steps on it, you will have sour throat

the leke leke thingy still dey surprise me o....


Reverting with further updates

if salamanda bite you, it will stick to your body until thunder strikes 7times....lol

If you fart, quickly increase the volume of the nearest radio or television set and the smell of the mess will disappear! Try it. . IT WORKS!!!!!

dayokanu: If you wan grow beards rub methylated spirit on your chin

This reminds me when i was desperately in need of a beard at 17. I rubbed spirit, i applied igbo mixed with spirit, i used one black soap like that, they call it ghana soap; I applied all these things twice in a day for more than three months.
Ol boy, ten years later i still don't have a strand of hair on my chin.

waooooooooooo...........you are all lost children of the land...this superstition is what make us african..they are all spiritual signs. and must be perform with little ritual. they are true stories from our forefathers. Though most 21st century superstition doent work but the older once remains valid

There‘s this one i still do unconsciously;if my eyelid scratches me(like boil trying to develope on it),i just touch my saliva with my fingertip &touch d eyelid 3x....the boil disappears immediately.it works for me oo.

Also,if pepper enters my eye,i just lick some salt....i got relieved insanta!!

valencia25:

sincerely I totally Agree with this, expecting someone to prove this wrong?

Never bothered to try it out!

All I remember is the attendant song:

Leke leke fly pass my head
I pick stone stone am
E begin to curse me
Sege, waka

if you are asleep and a spider walks over you or the celign above you (that type of spider that jumps and scavenges) you would have a very bad nightmare



if you have a child that bed wets, just cook a delicious meal of roast agama lizards (the males with the red heads) and serve to the child for the predicament to stop asap

If a firefly flies into your house, you'd have a visitor the next day. Used to work till I stopped believing all dis crap

. You are correct, but the song is leke-leke bami leke, eye adaba bamileke (2ce) Mu dudu lo, mu funfun bowale till when you gets tired, lo and behold and just like magic you have some of the fingers painted with white streaks. Worked for me too while still small.

When I was a kid, we spent so much time at the stream swimming,when we got home our parents will be angry with us.
Later we learnt tieing grasses together, once we spend the whole of the day swimming and tie the grasses on our way home, no one will question
why we came back very late.it really work.

i dont know how or what makes this happen, but i can say to anyone that doubts that it did happen to me and all my friend, i guess it just the power of believing, because we were small and we just believed it without thinking and it works everytime, sometimes we even begin to debate who got the most whites patched on the fingers. i know some will say there is no scientific fact but i know like i know that i did happen

If you go to a market and take a mirror and bend down and look at the lets of the people walking around in the market, you will notice that some of them are ghost, their legs doesn't touch the ground. But if they discover you, they will try to hit the mirror off your hand and if they do and the mirror touch ground, you will die. I thought of trying it out at Oshodi market, but fear no allow me.


If you see a dead person that you know, if you can go behind them and use a Razor blade and put a mark at their back, they will stay and come back to live.



I think the she-ke-le-ke thing is because when you shake your hands for that length time, the blood in those finger tips moves back, creating those white spots.

-if someone is set out to punish you and you want him/her to forget,remove an eyelash and put it in your hair!

It's actually a magic cos it works for me as a teenager back then, e.g like going to the river to swim with friends knowing one would be beaten by parent cos they've warned me never to go there, all i do is dive deep into the river and get a spottless pure white stone and once i get home i just drop it at the door step and then remove my eyelashes and place it on my head, once my parent or whoever intend flogging me crosses that stone, no matter how furiouse that person was that's case closed. As matter of fact they tend to forget i ever did anything wrong.

If you are going to meet somebody and you had a knock on your left leg fingers, you will not meet the person at home. Or something like a bad omen

Au about if you eat fish bone and it got stuck in your throat, you should take a 'mossle' of eba and the bone will dissappear.

For my poultry followers, if you're too well decked up or too well dressed and you feed your layers, they won't give you eggs, cos they believe their owners should be poor to have acquired them in the first place. Man, I wear rags to my farm now and my layers are laying good eggs.

Big fat lie, it doesn't always work and the song goes thus: Leke leke bami leke eye adaba ba mi leke, mu dudu lo, mu funfun bo wa le

If you eat a chicken's anus, you get to reveal any secret you have.
