Idoma Promiscuous-conservative Paradox by gst101: 3:50am On Jul 26, 2012 |
all over, the idoma people and indeed the people of benue as a whole are seen as being promiscuous. But the idoma people are one of the most conservative tribes in nigeria when it comes to intimate relationship between a man and a woman. In all of idoma land apart from otukpo, there is a long history of alekwu (spiritsof ancestors). These spirits protect, reward and also punish any one who goes contrary to the morals, norms, cultures and traditions as laid down by the elders of a family or clan. One area i know the idoma people have conservative laws is in matters relating to s3x. For the sake of time and data plan, i am not going to go into all of the traditions but for those of you who know better about the tradition, you can help me. i cant understand the paradox. some one more informed should pls explain to me. I know in otukpa the law is most conservative. |
