Oh poor tree!! Can't they develop infrastructure without damaging the naturehuh Can't they??
Bros, if we have this kind of road network in Nigeria. I can assure you that it will be a den of Kidnappers, Ritualist, Armed robbers and all the evil things in this world so we don't need such here for now.

A project that will bring development ... Them dey ask for money...
That's why Africa will always be backward...

By the way who will collect the money dem dey request for - the gods of the land or the ancestors? undecided
The same way the pastors collect money from members of the public on behalf of God (God no send them I guess)

Going to school has nothing to do with this. China one of the major developed in technology still practice their traditional rites and believes yet they are well schooled. If the traditional rulers/worshippers says its sacred to them yes I agree with them. Imagine if its a church or a mosque that requires relocation I know majority here will cry foul saying one religion is against them because of bigotry.

If a church says give me money to go and rebuild my church somewhere since this one is causing obstruction for development. Everyone would have signed it and okay it. My brother what is good for the goose is also good for the gander.

Se paribus

You don't seem to understand. What is the correlation between a tree between sacred, which makes no sense by the way, and the financial compensation for it being sacred. Is the tree going to spend the money? You and I know that the tree is just going to be chopped up as firewood.

Imagine? Those are the almajeri schools build by last administration to give the northern children a life. To take them off the street begging, so the north stop breeding boys for boko haram in the name of immigrants searching for islamic knowledge. The recent federal government has blatantly refused to fund the initiative, because of the hatred for GEJ (i wonder what gej stands to benefit from the success). Some states like katsina have turned theirs into cattle ranch, others turned into idp camps. Yet this children roam the street, tomorrow the get listed in insurgency

No no sir, that's not it. Do not say it makes no sense just because you aren't affected in particular. Okay lemme ask, if they have said since it's a sacred tree, the government should provide just 1 peace of kolanut which is not more that 20 naira, would you go against it?

Yes the tree is not gonna spend the money same way God is not spending the money we pay as offerings and tithes every Sunday. It is meant for those that believe in whatever they believe in.

Simple....
