Eluku Festival: Movement Restriction In Ikorodu Over Traditional Festival by EdifiedCEO: 10:02pm On Aug 22, 2016 |
Information reaching [url]Newshelm.com[/url] news desk indicates that there will be strict movement restriction for residents of, and visitors to Ikorodu Town area tomorrow, Tuesday 23 to Friday 26, August, 2016. The restriction is as part of the traditional ceremony for the annual Eluku Festival in the community. Please note that this restriction is even more required of the female gender who must not be seen during the ceremony at the aforementioned time. There are sordid tales of harassment of those who elect to violate the restriction in movement. Ikorodu residents are familiar with similar restrictions for another traditional Oro festivals, but only for a day. Residents and other visitors are advised to stay off the streets during these hours. http://www.newshelm.com/2016/08/breaking-news-movement-restriction-in.html 1 Like |

Lol Please note that this restriction is even more required of the female gender who must not be seen during the ceremony at the aforementioned time. Some of the traditional women from this town are the same categories of Nigerian made f00ls that would champion the "Gender Equality Bill" in the Nigerian Senate. Until ORO is abolished in this country, gender equality will never work. Until our women rise to fight all evil culture, the elite women who are themselves wives to these cultists in Lagos and beyond would continue to deceive the average Nigerian woman. For gender equality and equity to work, all traditional leaders who support ORO and women oppression in ZOO-gerian must be severely beaten to pulp, including the Lawmakers who sponsor women oppression. Just to add this, I will walk in Ikorodu if I have an appointment at any restrictive period stated and NOTHING will happen. Let me see the f00l that will stop me from walking on a Federal Road. I hereby advise the Nigerian army to open fire on any miscreant caught at the scene just in the same manner they acted in Zaira. Long live ZOO-Gerian! To those f00lish women on this thread and beyond who support this oppression on our wives and mothers, and still clamour for gender equality bill, may you marry an aggressive husband that will oppress you ONLY in the same manner ORO cultists oppress Ikorodu women. 5 Likes |

My mother's hometown of Ikorodu and Eluku festival.. Dem no dey carry last at all.. In 1986 during the burial of my maternal grandfather, these Eluku and his followers came to commiserate with the family at midnight with his scary voice.. Chai...I was frozen on my bed that midnight when I heard the voice of that Eluku near my window.. I give yansh to my mother's hometown and their uncountable Iledis especially in Ikorodu township like Itushokun, Itumoja, Itupate, Itunmeko, Aga, Ita-elewa .. I prefer Epe my papa's hometown jare... Anyway, proudly full-blooded Lagosian ... 4 Likes 1 Share |
