Culture › Re: The Mystery Of The Idemili Culture!!! by ifyalways(f): 6:29pm On Nov 20, 2012
I don't understand some folks,the overtly relgious folks.
Y'all claim there are nothing like African/Black spirits/powers today but tomorrow claim you are organising prayers and deliverance sessions for people possessed of black demons. How so undecided

So,according to ya story,the town was in darkness cos they reverred the iguana but saw the light when they abolished that culture and embraced the white mans own.what really happened?Govt brought in power poles,boreholes and tap waters,gave their children scholarships as they discarded their culture or what?break it down,sir.
wesley80: Sorry pal, Spiritism is no Religion. I just hope African communities grow to a stage where they realize these are some of the reasons their people are relatively backward and face retarded progress. Yes I know it sounds absurd, but its true nontheless. i've seen such village traditions translate to huge obstacles in the lives of individuals who only knew their villages had such traditions or where themselves passive participants.
Earlier this year I accompanied a friend to an occassion in Nndoni community in Rivers state a community notorious for their reverence of the Iguana and surprisingly I didnt see any of the usually ubiquitous reptiles throughout my stay and I wondered aloud where they had all gone. It turned out that their now late king - you didnt hear he's dead from me - had asked his people to drop the tradition and allow the Iguana serving tradition go back to the town they "acquired" the tradition from (forgive me for letting the name of the town slip thru my memory, I'll confirm tomorrow) and his people wholeheartedly consented - apparently, they were all tired themselves. And so the people got liberated from the shackles of a backward tradition.
I wont bore you guys with tales of deliverance sessions I've watched of those posessed by spirits emanating from such traditions from Amadioha to pythons but my point is in 2012 we should have passed the stage of Animal worship and reverence.

Family › Re: Police Detain 7-month-old Baby, Parents Over N20,000 Debt by ifyalways(f): 2:53pm On Nov 20, 2012
strangest: In as much as what the police did was bad... people must learn not to go borrowing, so that there will be no sorrow tomorrow....
depends on what the loan is to be used for. No man is an island, instead of dying in pains, reach out for help.

@topic, very unfortunate. If the creditor can afford to "move" policemen by 2am from Önitsha to Ifitedunu, s/he can comfortably afford to write-off the debt. We need to be a lil' more compassionate in this country.

Poverty is a sin.I pray its all settled amicably now.

The late mrs Babangida touched a lot of lives with her SAP. Stole a lot too obviously.

[quote author=~artworks~]Thanks peeps. smiley smiley

ify, Im based in lagos.[/quote]oh really?nice!

Aside creating a blog/website as someone suggested,i believe you'll do well if you can network with Aunty Nike of Nike art centre fame. Her place is at Ikate r/about lekki. Lots of expats and indigenous art lovers are always there and also, her place is the base of a volunteer group of art lovers, buyers and sellers that go to rural schools to teach arts.
Networking is the key to success now, I believe you know.

^ I think their asking for Hausa speaking applicants makes sense considering they would be working outdoors and in a terrain where Hausa language is the local pidgin/generally used.
