. I have seen them before , it was just like a dream to me . Back in the year 2017 I wanted to urinate but there was no water to flush the toilet so I went outside to urinate but to my biggest surprise, I saw them on the roof of the next building selling market as if I was in the market . I didn’t take it serious because it was so real to me but after like 5 seconds , my brain came back to normal and I became scared and all of them started packing their loads and before I could call the neighbors, they all flew away . It’s a life experience


My belle ooooo 🤣🤣🤣

We haven't seen any doesn't mean they don't exist!! I think most creatures are going into extinction these days though, can u imagine seeing a "bintu" (alabombom) now and not making a fuss?

It’s real..

Very very real..

I know of one olden days hunter that came across one like that, back in the days. According to the story, when he saw it, it was small, looks roughy and crying..

He mentioned the necessary incantations they do mentioned before you could talk to a spirit.

The hunter communicated with the bushbaby but was unable to take the mat! The mat self, the way it do carry it, you wouldn’t even spot it easily! What you saw in the image above is different from reality!

It's very hard to take the mat away from it! Only an extreme conc hunter can do it successfully without dieing! You’ll have to fight it! Real fight! Now, imagine fighting a spirit... Movies would make it look as if it's easy, but it's not so in real life!

They were spirit that was disposed from the other world and the mat is the only thing they have! If you're able to take away the mat, then you're made for life! It's a commanding Mat that can be used to command anything!

The "Bushbaby" tale, is it real or fake? Have you seen one before? Is it true that, when you collect their mats from them, you become rich and wealthy?

Only real hunter can answer this, it is like saying Alien and mermaid are fake.50% of us here are in lagos, never go to village not to talk of do rel forest hunting before.
African hunters don't operate mostly at night. They only move out at night to check whether their traps have caught a game...

No be only strong! 🤣
Bush babies are small, nocturnal primates that are mostly found in the rainforests of Africa. They are also known as galagos, which is the name of the genus that they belong to. They are arboreal, which means that they live in trees. They are active during the night and sleep during the day.

Let me describe them. They are very small animals. . They have long tails, which they use for balance as they move through the trees. They also have large eyes, which allow them to see well in the dark. So I no know where op for see em own bushbaby with mat!🤣
They also eat small animals, such as lizards and rodents.

What I know is that they have this loud cries. They use these cries to communicate with one another.
Bush babies do not actually carry a mat. This is a myth that is often spread on the internet. The Only thing is, they do have a gland on their chest that releases a scent that is used to mark their territory. Anything aside that like mat, spiritual, money,and other trash na just lies!


so before the internet, no one knew of the bush baby myth?
