Rupertek:
Her husband died yesterday and she was caught making love with another man today. Thats your idea of moving on? It simply means she was with the liver beforeher husband died.

DrChukki:
Did you read the post?

ruffhandu:
I said exactly what you said. But on a second thought, I realised both of them killed him. So they are being disgraced for committing murder/.

Pat081:
hahaha are you not human being two days so fast

FuckTheMod:
So if your father died and your mother is caught doing this, this is what you'll say?

Lioness5280:
The husband is dead, what is their offense? . Will this wake him up?. She has moved on now, others must accept this and keep it moving as well. Life is too shot

ekineme:
Some tradition though!, I have read about this tradition in some villages that if a traditional married woman cheats and cook for the husband that the man will fall sick and if the necessary rites are not performed, he will die.

My question is what is the man offence?
Someone cheats and an innocent person dies, does it make sense? Before a lady will cheat on the husband she doesn't give a f**k what happens to the husband so it's an alternative to giving your husband a poison just that this time it's done by the gods

ekineme:
The tradition of the said village is that if a woman sleeps with anyone aside the husband, she shouldn't cook for the husband, any day the man eat the food prepared by the adulterous wife, he dies. This is the case here,
She cheated on the husband, went ahead and cooked for him, consequently the man died, she then continued with her adulterous life, and got caught.

kalvoken:
The man only suffers miserable sickness or die in some cases, IF HE IS AWARE THAT THE WIFE IS CHEATING AND REFUSES TO:
*SEND HER AWAY
*CONTINUES EATING MEAL MADE BY HER
*SHARE SAME BED TOGETHER (not even sex)
But, if he is not aware, it's the woman that will suffer madness, terrible sickness or death, unless she confesses.

jomarick:
it only affects the man if he knows his wife is cheating but did nothing about it or cover it up. If he doesn't know, nothing would happen to him.

Judolisco:
it's called indigenous knowledge, d community I grew up in Niger state, if you die by drowning, then you'll be buried very close to the river banks.... Dis strategy was conceived so that people will take more caution when swimming especially kids... The same thing with d evil forest, there's nothing evil about the evil forest, it's only a conservation method for treesand animals..... In some community with only one water source, they come up with rules like, using jst one bucket or you must not wear slippers to the stream, you must not fish, u must not swim, everything na jst indigenous knowledge....western traditions have erased many of this knowledge over the years

Lioness5280:
How did they murder him? . You believe in the witchcraft they claim is tradition?

Kobojunkie:
It shouldn't matter whether one was raised in the city or not for one to desire justice and fairness for all people, should it? This supposed tradition is an unjust one in that it vilifies those who are different, without proof of wrongdoing. It is wicked and should be done away with.

FashionCookie:
Are the people parading him any better??
Hypocrites everywhere.

wink2015:
The woman is paraded alongside in the picture.

Go through the picture you will see her walking with the man with leaves particularly covering their body.

Omodua:
It's your opinion. The culture can't be done away because it's helping to preserve morality and fidelity amongst women. We're Africans and we can't ape Europeans in everything. Let our culture be,Prof!

dustmalik:
If not that we don't have a working system, this is a ground for the wife and the man she was caught with, to be investigated for the husband's death. They probably connived to kill the husband. It's obvious that she has been sleeping with that man even when her husband was alive.

Kobojunkie:
How is it helping to preserve anything when this story here is proof it does nothing of the sort? Abi, you no know English again?

Omodua:
Prof. You must be a city brought up who doesn't believe in cultural values or traditional set up.
We are honed in the village. Knows what goes on. And a witness to the cultural values.Traditional system of marriage is very dynamic. Not like the Church marriages where fanfare is the key without addressing the intricacies that goes with it. Our traditional systems address the intricacies where the missing Link is absent. The Lady can't go outside marriage to have extra marital affairs. No matter the circumstances because the gods of the Land, which colanuts and native gin have been given, superintends over the marriage. The Lady stands to die if she commits. If the husband knows and keeps quiet,he is also afflicted with deadly sickness or death. So, as husband you don't bother what happens to her as regards fidelity.You are insulated from assaults by gods of the Land if you don't know. Except you know. It's better therefore to steer clear from her lifestyle than knowing how morally upright she's because that will insulate you from wrath of the gods.Till death do you part, the woman can't mess herself outside the matrimonial home. It's the best form of marriage!

Kobojunkie:
Your talk makes no sense at all. The woman in the story was a philanderer before her husband died and continued even after. So how could this useless tradition be said to be of any use?
