According my great grand father, it is done so in order to prevent future occurrence in any of the family members. That why a river is one of the most dangerous place to take an oath. Their are so many dangerous spirits that are in Rivers 7 Likes 1 Share |

May her soul rest in peace. Nigeria and Africa general are very superstitious.. They believe if the sacrifice is not made, other members of her family would die by that same means. Thus the sacrifice. I asked this question when I was in owerri, and this was the answer I got. Also she'll be buried close to the river. 2 Likes |

EzekaUdenee: And that was how some fulani allowed their useless cows to climbed a sacred hill of a traditional diety in Ondo State and got struck by heavy thunder and 39 cows were dead, I guess that is babaric too because everything is babaric to you. If you know it's babaric go without permission and climb the hill in Ijare in Ondo State where those useless cows were struck by thunder then you will understand the meaning of babaric bro. Pls learn always learn I'm not idol worshipper but when something is a culture so be it and must be respected. 4 Likes |

Jesus is calling you today! Strive to enter by the narrow door; for many will seek to enter and will not be able. Jesus is the way to eternal life; no one comes to the Father, but by Him. Repent and accept Jesus today as your personal Lord and saviour; He will keep you safe when every other thing fails. It is very important to make this all important decision today, and if you have already accepted Jesus into your life, continue to follow Jesus all the way. He will shepherd you so that you find pasture in this life, and also in the life to come. - Copied |
