remember007:. Op, try to be specific. Python worshipping is a culture that has been practiced in most eastern towns since time immemorial. Any one visiting the following towns should be ready see things like this. Idemili north and south. Isiekenesi( ideato north) in IMO state. Orumba North( Amaokpala to be precise) don't know about other villages. Umueleke( in Ehime mbano LGA in IMO state) The pythons are harmless just like they said. Killing it purposely or mistakenly attracts a huge penalty. |

Last year one man on a motorcycle sighted this type of Python and what he did surprised me. He ordered the bike man and he stopped abruptly and within 5 secs he had coiled the 5ft python into his bag and the fled immediately. I was coming behind them but what really amazed me was his cleverness in handling the live python and this happened in one of the idemili towns in Anambra. I will say he's lucky that no other person saw them and the bike really aided their quick movement. |

AgapeCharis:. bros, no state is more diabolical than the other. Anambra is not even diabolic compared to other eastern and western states. |

Op only thing I want to correct you is that house of reps or senators that represents you don't do roads, construction of roads is done strictly by the governor of the state. Well try shift from the Python sha word ƒøя the Wise |

Yes, it does noes not harm anyone. I'm from anambra and it's usual to see the sacred python move about and entering people's homes in my village. You dare not kill it, if you do, you will have to give it a befitting burial- fit enough for a rich man- interestingly, it hears the igbo language and would come if you ask it to. |

GodMode: Pythons are like totem and most villages in Anambra and some other Igbo state villages don't kill or harm them. They don't harm us, they're non-vernomous and are environmental friendly. We don't necessarily worship phytons, not like we perform some routine rituals or sacrifice to them. Why should we kill and cause harm to an innocent animal that is of no threat to us?. |

Luckygurl:I don't want village wahala and all those questions that might be asked about the dead snakes. We were told of Corp members who killed the snake and never gave them a befitting burial. The Corp members, according to what we were told, died mysteriously. Though I only saw, I never killed any. Besides, being Corper and in a strange land, one needs to be careful. I don't want to see or talk no evil |

Am from idemili and we don't do burial for pythons.Though we don't kill it bt if u do either accidentally or otherwise, no one wl pressure you to do a burial Rather, the the elders wl ask u to abstain from the act and I mean those great grand papas. Religion has changed all this special recognition and what have you abt pythons. 1 Like |
