RE: AN INSIGHT INTO THE BINI TRIBE

in Cross Culture3 years ago

One thing I know is that the people of Edo have a very rich culture. I have heard similar stories too because I had friends in school from Edo and they loved to gist.

I see your Oba is valued due to the ceremony that goes with his burial. So even if you are overseas and the Oba kicks the bucket, would you still have to shave your head as a male? Hehe.

... a woman shouldn't laugh with a child before he grows teeth.

This is funny. You do know babies smile and laugh even before their teeth are formed. How can the mother not laugh with her baby?

I'm sure you don't agree with some of these cultural values. Nicely written. Good luck in the contest. 🙂

haha yeah the Edo people do have a rich culture.

So even if you are overseas and the Oba kicks the bucket, would you still have to shave your head as a male?

Some people do so just to show respect, it is not compulsory though. But if they are in the state it is in their best interest to shave their hair, cause the people they will use for the ritual are those who have hair on their head, because it is assumed they are not one of us.

I'm sure you don't agree with some of these cultural values.

Definitely, first why won't I laugh with my baby and also why do you have to kill innocent people because someone else died? na ment na😂
