Lala247: ~ You are not getting it though... English language must be a herculean task for O.P and her instagram source.. The women said - We are Mammy water People - meaning they are worshippers of osun(mammy water/River goddess) they didn't say - We are Mammy water ... Mammy water they are referring to is the Osun Goddess who Yorubas believed changed to water after Sango's demise .. get it? They didn't say they were mermaids 1 Like |

Darkrebel666: Oh so they just worship the memaids ? |
Re: Photo: Meet The Mami Water People From Osun Oshogbo by Nobody: 11:57pm On Apr 15, 2015 |
Lala247: ~ Yes ..they are worshippers of Osun (Mammy water) Osun is not a mermaid though. She's the river goddess. European influence had us creating terms like Mammy water(Mermaid) . There was nothing like that before the whites came.. 1 Like |

Lala247: ~ Realer than Bible stories my dear . Even the whites know these things are real.. Or aren't there witches in England? Of course there are . Halloween is a proof such exist ... Its very real..not the mermaid thing this time around but the osun goddess thing.... . If its not real and doesn't work for perple, I don't think she'd have so many devout worshippers . 1 Like |

Darkrebel666: Halloween is a fun festival reminding us of primitive and savage beliefs of non existent things like witches etc. Stupid superstitions no longer believed by educated people anywhere in the world. In fact 'the whites' know these things do not exist at all! |

KoloOyinbo: ~ You folks painted it as 'a fun festival' . .. But in reality its a fetish ceremony. On every Halloween, there are those who are still true to the old ways- wearing black robes, surrounding cauldrons and casting spells Stupppid superstition is no longer believed cos you people don't wanna believe ... It exists bro See what Nas said: People fear what they don't understand .. I implore you to try visiting any of the renowned Dibias (Spiritualist) in Anambra ..He'd cast a spell and you'd start dancing all over the street Then you'd know that such exist 1 Like |

Darkrebel666: What arrant nonsense! You are living proof that development needs to start from EDUCATION! We don't believe in Magic and Juju because they are not real! Spells on me ... indeed! No civilized person would be affected by such because they only exist in the minds of those too ignorant or sadly too conditioned and brainwashed by their culture to realise it is all rubbish! 1 Like |

There's no such thing as mammy water! They only exist in the minds of those that believe such bullshiit! If you are reading this and you are mammy water, I beg you to appear before me and prove yourself, then I shall become one of your most devoted worshippers. Until then, I don't believe! |
