The traders must have schooled in France, we weren't taught to pack our goods home after sales grin

That spirit guarding the market must be there collecting stories for the gods... cheesy

BTW, OP, You know what we say in Japan "PICS or ADONBILIVIT" angryangryangry

See mental patient..

Who thinks stealing is peculiar to tribalism..

The only city in Nigeria where you can watch armed robbery live on per second billing is Ibadan in Oyo state. In one day I witnessed two with blood and death involved.

I guess Anini was an Igbo man..
I understand. My point exactly is that the proliferation of most of the crimes were orchestrated and championed by the igbos due to the fall out of the civil war. This same desperation shown back then, remain what majority of them still perpetuate. Self actualisation and ambition is good so long as you don't ride on someone's back unjustly to achieve it. Apology to hard working, honest Igbo men and women who don't indulge in those vices to make both ends meet.

Come to Station market Kaduna, is the same thing. Not just fruits, food stuffs but chikens are left unguarded. I heard this practice was obtainable also in the s/ west until the advent of igbo thieves who changed this practice of trust. I want to believe the end of the civil war was and remains the beginning of the Nigeria's problem of mistrust, tribalism, nepotism, criminality, kidnapping, stealing, 419(frausters) and what a few, all for the love of money, all of which designed, manufactured and injected into the society by the ig*bos to reap and tear Nigeria apart. Ordinary, people in the south south, s.west, north and middle belt are laid back people only interested in hard work to earn honest pay, but the unification of Nigeria post civil war, ushered in desperation and impatience for quick cash which almost destroy the fabric of the nation. Thank God for many wonderful Igbo men and women which i am partly among, who grew up in the north and understand the value of humility, trust and hardwork. God bless Nigeria.

Not at all, but i merely stated how it degenerated to this present state. I didn't pick on the igbos to spite them. My ascertion is actually history bound.

Thunder will fire this new hausa tribalistic Mod who came here and hide my harmless comment only to leave those foolish comments at the front page.





Hausa people are the problem of Nigeria and making the hausa goat a MoD in this section is the beginning of the problem in this section.

Good for them. I dare them to leave valuable goods (Iphone6 ,samsung s5 etc) They should try and put their gods to test na. It won't take boys 30 mins to clear everything.

It is true. I passed through that place during my NYSC and equally bought some garri there. I also know of a place in Imo state where it is a taboo to add water to the palm wine. The wine is sold without a drop of water been added. Igbo kwenu!

They used to do that in Onitsha in the 80s! Don't know if they still do though!

MFUM—WHEN a traveller hinted that there was a
community in Niger Delta where traders do not pack
their wares home after the day’s business, but just
cover
them with waterproofs and other materials, it
sounded
too real to be true in this evil era.
So this reporter went to Mfum community in Ogoja
Local Government Area, Cross River State, located at
the
intersection that leads to Abakaliki and Igoli, which
is
30 and 15 kilometres away, respectively, from Ogoja
metropolis, to authenticate the claim.
The strategic position of the community has turned
the
people of Mfom, especially the women, to traders.
The makeshift stalls, where they sell foodstuff like
garri,
rice, plantain, cocoyam, banana, fish and bush
meat
to the thousands of people, who traverse the busy
Abakaliki-Ikom Highway, littered the roadside.
It’s true—Madam Agade
A shop owner, Madam Grace Agade, who confirmed
the
claim to Niger Delta Voice, said: “There is a strong
spirit
that guards the foodstuff and anybody who
attempts
to steal any item is on his own
“This is because the person will see what he or she is
looking for by coming to this community to steal
stuff
items meant for sale just because nobody is
guarding
the items of trade.
“If anyone steals from the market, the spirit that
guards that market will follow such a person to his
house or his destination and instructs him to return
the
item.
“Butif he remains stubborn and keeps the item,
something will happen within three days.
“If he does not die, he will run mad and it is only if
his people come to appease the community that the
he
can be healed of the madness.”
Spirit arrests gari thieves
She said sometime, last year, “some people stole some
basins of gari and when the sprit went after them,
they
had to return the garri and our youths beat them
up.
“They had to perform sacrifices before they were
allowed
to go back to their homes.”
Another lady, Rose Eddy, said she has been selling
food items in the market since the road was
constructed,
several decades ago, adding, “nobody had stolen
my
items except the incident of last year.”
Switching to Pidgin English, she said: “Dem know
our
community say thief no dey survive here and any
person wey steal, na him go take him head carry
am.”

Oh!..now I know better.
1.I'm free to chose my religion which is acceptable according to the Nigerian constitution.
I am a proud Christian and no meaningless ranting of yours can change that.
" I'll rather serve God and die to know there is no God rather than to live a meaningless and die to confirm there is God"
2.I don't know about your comparism about god and deity and I don't I wish to be drawn into such argument.
3. next time,learn to pass your message across without insults,it doesn't make you smarter nor wiser!
Good night

It is only when they display 3D teevees, Home Theatres, Phones and Ipads and that when i will know that these people are damn serious, not when you display quili-quili, abacha n coconut, udara, unripe mango vegetable leafs, Chewing Stick, Aboniki Balm and you expect people to come and steal it,..... Leave these things i mentioned in Oshodi, no damn fool will touch it, even for 100yrs
