Hmmmmm, so this tradition of a thing is still being practice in the real sense, I thought it's only in films, but her in-laws are wicked.

Nonsense story extracted from Nollywood ��.


It is real,I know them personally but there is more to the story, I suspect a cover-up because the man died mysteriously and what killed him was in the village when he went to the burial of his wife's sister father in-law, he lived happily with his wife in Lagos.

Hmm! That's risky. The water isn't fit for human consumption. One could die due to an illness arising from this. Then she'll still get blamed cos it will be interpreted as nemesis catching up with her. I feel so sorry for her and the children. Double jeopardy!!

They don't even love their brother because know that the water will definitely kill her, not thinking of his children, they just want to use it as excuse to take the husband's property and render the children useless when she is dead.

Northern parasites are better than Eastern parasites. Isn't it because of the same oil you're begging us everyday to join Biafra?

This and many barbaric act going on at the eastern part of the country that their youth needs to rise and speak against but no thier only problem is Tinubu and what is happening in Lagos and yorubaland generally. This is wickedness in 20121.

i guess they didnt cook the water to avoid infection; you shouldnt drink a contaminated water, the custom has side effect, in the sense that we need to drink clean water to prevent virus, but the water should be boiled before drinking it, if not, better is to swear than to drink such unboiled water!
water that was used to wash something is a contaminated water, it needs to be boiled and filter it before using it for anything!

[s][/s]You aren’t still making sense.
What are demons still doing in church when you claim the name of Jesus trembles and vanishes them?
I think he's actually telling you about fake and false christians/christianity. Jesus Himself said it that many will come in His name which means devil and his agents can sure visit anyone in the name of Jesus. And mind you just because you know and can call on the name of Jesus doesn't mean you are safe and that demon will tremble when you call the name of Jesus. You have to be of Jesus at heart and in spirit before you can enjoy all that and more.

What an archaic and evil family,it might even be the accuser that killed they dead man but is pretending in other to prove useless point . He has an ulterior motive towards the bereaved widow ,this kind of people doesn't need to exist . They will kill in private and come in public to ask who killed .may God protect us from this kind evil people in our families.

You can't be abusing them because of their culture, it's what defines them. You are a bitter soul. Very bitter and full of hate.

You don’t need anybody’s gospel here.
These are the same people who attend almost every church service and masses and listen to the same gospel you are talking about.

What they need is common sense and civilization As being in the water doesn't make you a fish,same way being in Church doesn't mean you have the life of the Church (Jesus Christ).

I thought these people call themselves descendants of Israel? Is this how they do in Israel? Jesus will just be laughing at these fake people who are children of the Devil but calling themselves children of Almighty God. God indeed cannot be mocked

Abia. Nkogheri unu di 2much biko.

There is no place in Igboland where such nonsense is practice again.
It's either this is the normal wack Nollywood storyline or it's just a staged and well arranged performance.
There is nothing some Nigerians will not do just to trend.

Dear Ndi Igbo,Anambrian,
This is too cruel and barbaric for the family and brothers of a dead man,to collect corpse water and forcing a widow still in agony of a lost husband.

The Igbo people which I know,I guess the widow is educated, they want to kill her and collect the husband properties.

Shame! Shame!! Shame !!!,educated illiterates and culture addicts and people of double standards...... Dear Widow God will give you victory and be very careful with the family, so they do not kill you by diabolic means.

Very annoying tradition, if the man died in questionable conditions the woman is told to swore an oath or drink whatever they call it.
If the woman died under same circumstances everything is swept under the carpet. Our fore fathers sha are too bias.
Africans preferences are too much on the male gender.

Man has appointed himself judge over fellow man. A man cant even drink his own bathe water let alone drinking that of a corpse. Imagine the traumatic condition a poor bereaved widow is being subjected to for the sake of superstition.
