Shouldn't this be 16 awkward African tribal traditions.

Chaiiiiiii, Africans..

Olamitisoji:
5) Bull jumping
In order to prove their manhood in
the Ethiopian Hamer tribe, young
boys must run, jump and land on
the back of a bull before then
attempting to run across the
backs of several bulls. They do
this multiple times, and usually in
the nude.

Seen this on discovery, the interesting part is that their sisters are whipped continuously, and the girls endure the lashes and cut more whips, to show that they can take so much pain for their loving brother.

The jump is aided by putting two smaller cows beside the bull, so the guy can climb them to take his leap into mànhood.

I see no beauty here...

hmmmmm....is this for real

GLO IS THE BEST NETWORK....

Olamitisoji:
2) Khweta Ceremony
This Southern African ceremony is
practiced by several tribes and is
how a young boy proves his
manhood. When they are of age,
boys are sent to spend several
days or weeks in a circumcision
lodge during winter, where they’re
put through rigorous and often
dangerous tests and rituals such
as continuous dancing until
exhaustion, and circumcision.

I watched a documentary on this, it is dangerous and risky because some boys lose their lives or end in the hospital when complications arise which unfortunately do happen.

Olamitisoji:
8. Women can’t grieve elders
In the Southwestern Congo, the
Suku tribe honors ancestors and
elders, when they die, with a
ceremony held in the clearing of a
forest. Here, gifts and offerings
are brought, but outsiders and all
women are forbidden to attend.

But wait oh how they come snap the pic if outsiders are not allowed and the members no they use Samsung galaxy

Olamitisoji:
14) Beating the suitor
The Fulani tribe live in many
countries in West Africa and follow
a tradition called Sharo. Sharo
happens when two young men
want to marry the same woman.
To compete for her hand, they
beat one another up. The men
must suppress signs of pain and
the one who takes the beating
without showing signs of pain can
take the wife.

I proudly rep pulbe but can't withstand the beating tho

You are not a ‘real' man. Westernization have softened you.

Wow! Africans with their wonderful ways and believes. But that was then.

3) Putting a price on the bride
Lobola is an ancient and
controversial Southern African
tradition in which the families of a
bride and groom negotiate how
much the groom must pay for the
bride. All negotiations must be
done in writing — never by phone
or in person. The two families
cannot even speak until
negotiations are complete

When did they start writing

GOD knws

Obsolete believes , am hapi that civilisation came around... I wonder what would hv become of human by nw...

Can't imagine how the sudanese lady will kiss after "lip stretching" for several years. Shai! Poverty don kill us for Africa.

Lol lemme tell you something, even the legendary fulama198 can't withstand such no talk of common me

Olamitisoji:
16) Lip stretching
When a girl becomes a teenager
in the Surma tribe of Southern
Sudan, she begins the process of
lip stretching. The girl has her
bottom teeth removed to make
space for a lip plate, which is
increased in size annually.

Lord have mercy.
Do they even use anaesthesia to remove the teeth?

What human beings won't do in the name of perpetuating some ridiculous practice their ignorant ancestors used to do.

You can't compare yourself to him. If truly you are a Fulani man, you should be ready for anything

Does the lady even get a say?

Abi she has to marry whoever kidnapped her?
Ridiculous

Anyway I think you guys should also bring up more sides of the African cultures that are attractive.

Anyone who had never been to Africa would think only savages live there.

Olamitisoji:
1) Kidnapping your bride
In the Sudanese Latuka
tribe, when a man wants to marry
a woman, he kidnaps her. Elderly
members of his family go and ask
the girl’s father for her hand in
marriage, and if dad agrees,
he beats the suitor as a sign of his
acceptance of the union. If the
father disagrees, however, the
man might forcefully marry the
woman anyway.

What you see in those pictures cannot be sensibly regarded as a thing of pride. In actual sense it is more of a demonstration of acute poverty, wretchedness and agony of a backward people. Thank God for the western countries that brought some civilisation to africa. If the world was made up of only africans, our situation would have been worse than those of the animals in the forest.
