This is how a Nigerian tribe, KILBA, bury their dead.

A little hole is dug for as the burial site of the dead person, then the most elderly person in he dead person's family enter the hole and made to force down the dead body into the hole befre coming out.

The rite is also common among Christian tribesmen around Mandara Mountain and valley, Gwoza, Marghi, Pabbir/Bura, Höna, Higgi, Wagga, Wula, Vengo, Sukur, etc.

Africans like to hold up to cultures that do not have any significant impact on their lives.

i Won't be surprised to see a culture in africa where to be buried will be a taboo.

shocked



Nigeria and her many weird cultures.
Some traditions make no rational sense.

These pictures remind me of my cousin who was to marry an Anang girl. They had courted for over 2 years, yet he didn't even get past a handshake from his bride-to-be.
Her parents won't even let the lady visit him at home so that her virginity will be intact till their wedding night.

She was the Aliaha so being married as a virgin was the utmost bragging right she could give her family.

My godly cousin who respected the sanctity of marriage had no option but to keep himself too for his mbobo.

Sometimes we have to just fvck away with traditions like "Asa Ibale" because this was my poor cousin's discovery on the wedding night.

In the course of forcing himself into the hole he suffocates and dies.
Another hole will be dug.
