The potency of these things have gradually died off or withered down, thanks to Christianity. I know a festival in Atani, Anambra state, the masquerade that heralds the festival comes out once in a year, and by 12 am in the Night, no body except those that accompanies it have ever seen it, and all lights must be off when it passes, it passes with a quezing sound. To answer your question, I have been shown a man it crippled, because he allegedly went in front of it instead of being behind. The myths and legends surrounding some of these things are great. But like I said, a lot of people who are into it has embraced Christianity.

I think you are talking about Ayaka...It used to be common in Idenmili and this fear surrounding it.
