ABOMINATIONS AND TABOOS IN IGBOLAND

Igbos have a whole lot of customs and traditions that are still been practiced regardless of technology and civilization. Most people who are not Igbos or Igbos who are not so familiar with the community traditions might fall prey to the calamity that comes with going against the tradition of the land.

The DONT'S OF IGBOLAND
*No market, celebration, or any event on eke market day
*It's an abomination to give or receive any item in odd numbered forms e.g 1,3,5,7 it must be in two's or multiples of 2�
*It's an abomination to kill a phyton

To get more TABOOS of IGBOLAND and the effect... Watch the video below and thank me later....My people die for lack of knowledge indeed!!!

Sorry, bu this video is very misleading. You people keep presenting Igboland as one society that is still in the 1800s. Most of these customs mentioned here are either outmoded and people no longer pay any attention to them. The rest are only true of specific areas of Igboland but here you've generalised them.

Videos like this are the reason why there are people who legit believe they will be eaten if they go to Enugu. Y'all should do better.
