You need good rainfall of rice cultivation. thats all.

In the Americas, slaves would generally keep the name of their slave masters. Thus Friday Johnson. Johnson would be the family name of the slave master.

Hi Im Indian. We have masquerade jobs in my village too. But the candidate must undergo spirit possession.

Language no barrier as once hes possesed he will automatically start speaking in our tongue. (Tulu)

You must be ready to learn all the ritual codes of conduct tho.

Shiva,brahma and Vishnu are chaffs! little grasses that are dead on arrival. I don't need you to agree on Jesus. Sooner or later we all would depart this earth and we would meet our Creator who will decide where we would go based on our lives on earth here. I pray for u that Jesus has mercy on you and gives you a real life. Remember,there is No More Time!!!

We will be reincarnated ok! Jesus is dead skeleton hes turned into manure for agriculture. Worship the Gods. Not dead mens.

I believe it takes great bravery and courage to display his allegiance to the Gods of his forefathers in these times when our forefathers faith and spirituality are viewed as demonaic by devilish people called xtians and muslims.

With olukun or whatever, ooni, his wife and those that believe in all dt are OYO (ON THEIR OWN)!

THERE IS NO god or goddess apart from the ALMIGHTY CREATOR OF THE HEAVENS AND EARTH. THE ONE AND ONLY JESUS.
there is non like or as HIM. there is non second to him. all others are lifeless little creatures

Sorry i disagree. Jesus is a dead man.


Worship Lord Shiva. The ultimate source of power along with Lord Brahma and the eternal Lord Vishnu.


The releasing of the 3 doves symjolizes these 3 forces.

It's in Fulani land, thus the title.

Ohh I see.

Fulaman198:
In the Fulani language of Fulfulde,

Arnado = Ruler or District Head
Debbo = Woman/Female/lady

So this is a Fulani community

Oh, So you mean your Tribe was around in the time of the Cave men right?
Since Adam ko? you wonder why I think your tribalistic!
Get Real. You are one stalk against the hurricane that is history. Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo Blah Blah..
They are set to disappear, if you don't believe me, just check the latest stats on endangered Tribes in Nigeria.
Something might be wrong with todays generation, but there simply isn't anything you can do about it. They will meet in the Uni or in that NYSC camp, they will fall in love, make babies that speak english (not any of those natives) and the rest is history!

Ofcourse! All tribes are descended from greater ethnic groups. Stemming from evolution of humans.

Theres no such thing as adam. Its a myth.


Why re you bothered bout others Do your duty and face your own jawe. Save your culture and your childrens future identity.

Alaminalpha:
This Thread is just plain wrong on so many levels
Its so Tribalistic that it gives me nausea just commenting.
Get a life Man
Your Tribes Will all Die out!
A Nigerian Tribe will replace all yall Tribalists

how is it tribalistic? no one is saying the other persons tribe is bad.

its our choice if we wish to preserve our ancestral heritage.


Our tribes survived for 1000s of years since the inception of mankind. why should it die out now all of a sudden? that means there is something wrong in todays generation.

mentorandfriend:
Reminds me of a traditional marriage I went to at Nkwerre in Imo State. In the middle of the programme, after the nuptial dance, I rose up to go and one masquerade stood in my way at the gate; and everyone's eyes were on me. Whoever that was wearing the masquerade wanted me to drop money, but I'll never do that. I don't patronise jobless people.

I stepped aside, it stepped that direction too, sprawling and rolling on the floor, to cover any space I could use to exit the gate. I hesitated for few seconds, told the masquerade to shift, no movement. Every eye was now in our direction. It was an embarrassing moment, so I grabbed the idiot on his costume and with all my might, flung him out of my way and passed on. Good riddance.

The person wearing the masquerade did well not to repeat the trash outside the gate coz there are no distinguished guests and friends outside the gate. Just random fellows. I would have beaten the hell out of him and dislocated his acromio-clavicular joints.

how cheap of you. this is their only source of income at events. and your payment is supposed to be a sacrifice to the spirit represented. you wont get it. but when you face bad karma you will.

millionaireman:



LOL.
White man countries have MASQUERADES, some, even more sophisticated and huge than the ones here in Nnewi.

But white man still prays Christianity.


Separate religion from culture.

This is a display of cultural heritage, not religion.

shut up.

go worship your own fake jew diety and leave them to do as they please. if you want to preach , if you have the guts, go preach ot boko haram cult followers.


and by the way this is not a drama or clown show. this is originally intended to be a spirit possession ritual . we do similar in our village. the "masquerade" acts as a moving idol for hte particular spirit.

It is not a private residence but a public building that belongs to the Ife people.

That house is just a building within the palace complex. It is not even the Royal court. The last ooni that used there as a residence (not the court) vacated the place in 1980 when other multi-storey building was built within the palace to serve as residence which was used throughout the reign of Sijuwade.

Public building Lets see if they let you in to use that jacuzzi.

This development will not just start from his palace... it will end at his palace as well.


Look at all these fools clapping and rejoicing over someone elses private house renovation. From tax payer money ofc.


Btw that house looks like any other rich man's villa. Certainly not a traditional palace. Useless kings.

Its funny to see the poor happy and rejoicing at the riches satisfaction. Slaves.

I agree completely. You will lose your culture and family ties just for reasons of LUST.


There is nothing positive in intertribal marriage.

As a monitribal you belong neithwr here nor there. You lack identity. Culture and values hardly matter to you. Extended families and the tribal unit will break down into selfish nuclear units. You wont have any tribal sentiments or brotherhood. When you are in trouble you wont have the chance of your fellow tribal brothers or sisters to bail you out , especially when in a foreign state or land. You have isolated yourself and you are gradually contributing to the destruction of the larger National identity.

Whats his crime again

Even I would contemplate suicide if I found out that my wife is infact a tranSGender.

Would you?

I think he must. Population of the world is skyrocketing. No food to eat.

But i know people at Hyderabad Only...Is hyderabad not okay?

Hyderabad is a dirty place filled with followers of isis/taliban cult.

But some educational institutions are good.

Bangalore is way better tho.

otiigba1:
look! Yes! You can call me what ever you like it will not change my opinion what you have failed to explain or give an answer to is, again. were the paki's and indians once one country?

There was no one country. There were 600 + Princely states under british rule plus Ceylon and Burma.

otiigba1:
Rubbish! there are no different between paki's and indians they are the same sh!t remember they were both one country before. So one culture, tribe and believes too.

You are an a$$hole to compare paki with Indian. We have different tribes, ideology and culture. Pakis are mixed and muslims . That makes you similar to South Sudan and cannibals from congo.

otiigba1:
yea? How about you indian/paki's marry your cousins, aunties, second cousins'brother inlaws, sister inlaws, mother inlaws and E.T.C what's with that shi't eh? Very aborminable!
I can bet my arse you are married or engaged to your cousin * spits * hence why most asians have disable inadequate children .
Now tell us whats all that incest is all about.

Sorry you are either st upid or ignorant.

Pakis may do that stuff coz of their islamic beliefs.

But in Hinduism we are banned from marrying cousins or blood relatives.

We are even banned from marrying within the same clan (gotra/bari). Aslong as we marry a tribe membe whether its by love or arranged its well. This is to prevent inbreeeing at the same time to maintain tribal purity , culture and family ties. These are the ways devised by our ancestors.

racism at its peak

Its not raci.sm . Its our choice based on cultural. Go marry same se.x for all i care.
