I pray this makes the front page though, because I want people to appreciate beautiful landscapes in Nigeria not everytime oyinbo country. Lol

After many years of not visiting my hometown, I decided to that this time around I was going to learn new and amazing things about Ebonyi and I would be posting them all up on my blog

So do well not to miss any post because they are going to be worth seeing.
The salt lake is located between Umuchimma and Urobo in uburu village of Ebonyi state Nigeria. As the name goes, every drop of water found around this lake when boiled turns into salt; no wonder Ebonyi is regarded as the ‘salt of the nation.’
In the olden days, this lake served as a ceremonial ground for newly wedded brides and mind you men where not allowed here.

After your traditional marriage, the woman’s hair will be shaved into punk; and she will be brought to this lake for the ceremonial dance. Other women will form a circle as she goes to pick a pot and fills it up with water from the lake.
After which she will dance round the circle to the different songs being sung by the women.
After the ceremonial rites, she then takes the pot home ( its significance is that as salt adds taste to food and so does the woman to her household) and boils it prepare meals for her husband.

She then becomes a fully married Uburu woman!

amen

Nigeria is bless but I can't say of Nigerians

Op is that all the pictures you can get?
