Edo People And The "Witch" Stereotype -sleeknick by sleeknick: 11:13pm On Nov 04, 2015
over the years , there is this stereotype that edos are very witchy. I really don't know y people tend to think about us that way. there is no place that is free of evil spiritual powers A.k.a "witch craft" I see no reason why the edos case would be so blown outta proportion. to an extent when you introduce yourself as an Edo the next thing you hear is "those witch people". this should really stop. the edos are very friendly people and very intelligent. I just think they are over rated when it comes to the witch aspect.
have you been bewitched or have seen someone who has been bewitched by an Edo person.?
share your experience and your opinion on this issue.
