Quite interesting.

But of a truth, if not for the coming of the white man & their influence on blacks, blackman would have still been killing twins & hunting rabbits & Squirrels naked in the bush.

Childofaking:
Mary slessor did a great work in Nigeria. On a 10 pounds note in Scotland, is the picture of mary slessor and her missionary route in Nigeria on the other side of the currency, you can see arochukwu clearly written on that currency

hucknall:
That's not true. The colonial masters came for business while
missionaries came to spread the Gospel.

Stop spreading lies.

I met the only surviving twin saved by Mary Slessor over 100 years ago (Video)


Mary Slessor was a missionary posted from Scotland to Calabar in Nigeria by the Presbyterian Church in 1876. She also lived in Arochukwu Nigeria during her missionary work. Mary Slessor stopped the killing of twins in Nigeria Calabar and she achieved this by saving a lot of twins either left in the bush to die or from their homes where their mothers hid them.
One of the twin babies Mary Slessor saved by herself before the killing of twins was finally abolished is Mgbeafor Okereke. I met her in her home in Amasu, Arochukwu, where I had an amazing interaction with her.

Are u saying they weren't killing kids? Are you saying till today Africans don't sacrifice their fellow humans for fetish rituals? Are u saying the history was false...

Abeg Africans no try at all. The colonization was necessary and till date we prove them right cos we haven't managed the country well.

but no be for Nigeria abeg.
Killing of twins neva stop for Calabar o
she no stop shishi!

For Yorubaland, twins are given special courtesies and endearment so tey dem dey pray for every new bride to born twins.
So many Yoruba songs, oriki and proverbs praise ibeji (twins) so tey dey are regarded as dieties to be worhipped for fertility.

Some families get up to 4 generations of twins for Yorubaland and na Yorubaland even get the highest rate of multiple births for the whole world.
For the Yoruba, Twins be like gods and prized gift from orisha ibeji. To maltreat dem sef go fear you let alone kill dem. You touch dem,ur own don cast finish be dat!

Abeg replace the Nigeria with calabar

Replicas of what would have become of us can be found in Papau New Guinea :

moststylish:
liar liar,prove it

grandstar:
In Igbo land if you wanted to curse someone, you'll say "may you have twins!"

In Yoruba land, twins were also taboo. What's weird is that Yoruba people have the highest percentage of twins globally of their population. Yoruba twins always bear 2 names which are Taiwo and Kehinde.

Taiwo means" go and taste life". The real meaning is "first go and see how life is".

internationalman:


You would have said the same thing if there was killing for money ritual and they stopped it.. How is killing of twins more barbaric than killing and extractibg body parts for money ritual..

Nigerians are barbaric and might have still been killing twins if they didn't stop it..

Everything the colonial masters changed positively or negatively, still have a lasting effects till date. That's why we are still unknowingly slaves to them.
