Typical igbo man cursing people's parents... I'm an Atheist...

Typical yoloba fool from South West who sold all his properties to the Igbos.
Whenever they hear that name Igbo, they start crying like a lady suffering from menstural pain
We will soon buy your dirty mothers & sisters so you can have every reason to cry like a rape victim.

Not all Igbo land cos in my town we kill all snakes


I'm sure if ask well, they will tell you that you can kill any type of snake but never a python. The penalty for killing a Python in Igboland is to bury it as you would your own father with full funeral rites. But it is possible that there maybe some parts of Igboland that no longer observe this tradition due to Christianity.

I just did small researched on pythons...

They don't attack HUMANS unless they are startled or provoked....

Is my post contrary to yours or in agreement?

It's not all snakes.
It's some specific ones and they are usually the one that are not poisonous even if they mistakenly bite U.

I don't want village wahala and all those questions that might be asked about the dead snakes. We were told of Corp members who killed the snake and never gave them a befitting burial. The Corp members, according to what we were told, died mysteriously. Though I only saw, I never killed any. Besides, being Corper and in a strange land, one needs to be careful. I don't want to see or talk no evil grin grin

Lol! I grab.

Point of correction, Its a species of python not snake. because the villagers don't harm dem and it neither attack the villagers too. Thats why they multiply in number and sizes. Jus sighted this one in one of ma visit to ma villa in Anambra.

Re: A Town In Anambra State Were Snakes Visits People...(pictured) by emecheboy2(m): 1:16pm On Jun 19, 2015
very common in Ukpor in Anambra State. Back in the days they worship them and in fact the snakes stay with you in the house.
Re: A Town In Anambra State Were Snakes Visits People...(pictured) by STEVENcrack(m): 1:16pm On Jun 19, 2015
In ukpor nnewi south LGA of Anambra state its a taboo to kill it, dunno why..I guess that killing that snake is not allowed in anambra state(I stand to be corrected though) its a harmless snake.

During my days in d village u can even see them inside mud cooking pots, and we do is justt to use a stick and gentle plAce them in d nearby stream. If u kill them It then u are up against d village gods. Its ur funeral baby.

Lol. Oga no vex Abeg. Just that truth is bitter ; undecided

Wisdom has never made a bigot, learning has. You should always seek to understand first why a people revel in a practice before rushing to make baseless, tasteless and unfounded remarks about them. Just so you know, stereotyping a people doesn't gives you an edge over them. It reeks of ignorance and over-bloated sense of self-importance.

that is Eke, python and not snake , agwo, people should learn how to call things by there proper names.
anyway na so ebe for places in Igbo land, they don't kill pythons including in my own Villa very close to Agu ukwu Nri

is Python a name of an animal?..some people sef. Python is and remains a legless reptile (Snake,serpent or whatever you choose to call it). the OP aint wrong in calling "python" a snake because that is exactly what it is.. Python is a TYPE of SNAKE.

Python is killed in Awka, it is not reverred. Stop d generalization. The only animal u don't kill there is monkey. Other towns have the animals they don't kill, not all towns rever python
