For me the most intriguing and mysterious, "dreaded with awe" still remain EBU WONDER, atleast all the masquerades you guys have listed have people inside them, but this one is just a piece of cloth woken up with a gunshot from the box where it is kept the funny and interesting aspect that still baffles me till now is there is nobody inside the masquerade because after it finishes it dance it deflates and returns to being just cloth

Don't mind the Op, surprised Ajofia of Nnewi wasn't mentioned there..or nkpologwu of nanka in Orumba north,Anambra.



A friend briefed me about this Ajofia , he said when pregnant woman see am, the woman must fall into labour ...

I watched the video on YouTube also, the masquerade indeed appear dreadful ....

I think it would difficult to discuss the culture of Igbos without mentioning masquerades

fvck u gaY bastar.t slave! You wanted to insult Traditional Religion and you know that!
Would you have posted the same question if it was a thread about christian/muslim rituals? Woud you have said "ppl dey worship dead-jews/Arab pedophile in this age" ?! Dont take me for a naive pesin. Exactly! he posted about all tribes with regards to this particular Pagan ritual practice . WHy are you bringing Igbo and tribalism in between? DOnt change the topic! You never directed that stup.id comment at any particular tribe. Thats why now Im sure that your main reason for posting that comment was anti-Traditional Religion and not for tribalism.
