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?

It only exists in the imagination of those who think about them.

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!

The Bush baby is related to madam koikoi in school tales.

When student urinate on their bed and they are asked why they say because of the fear of Bush baby and madam koikoi they were scares to go to the toilet.

Guess madam koikoi is still out there looking for her daughter and will grab any child that dares confront her.

. 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

It was very fake. In retrospect, I think it was a tale told just to scare kids then.

Did you survive…?


Seriously though… I think there is no smoke without fire. Even if the story is made up there must have been an incident that started the whole thing initially.

Even the lady koi koi story!

Abeg,bush babies are not considered to be edible by most people. They are small and have a delicate flavor that is not considered to be appetizing by most.

So if Dem give you chop you go chop? 🤔🤯
