Taboos have and will always be a part of the African cultures, irrespective of the tribe you represent, there will be something you must never do in some lands, else you will face the wrath of the gods.

The IGBO tribe is one of three major tribes in Nigeria, western Africa with rich cultures and heritage, they are highly industrious and enterprising. But as beautiful as the Igbo people are, they have specific cultures that must not be joked with even as civilization seems to be swept away so many cultural values, Certain things are considered a taboo in the entire IGBO land.

Well, if you are wondering what TABOOS are: A taboo is something declared forbidden either for its sacred nature or to protect the people of a given community from the wrath of the gods and the leaders.

Number 1 is only applicable in a relatively small part of Igboland, and putting it in a list of taboos im Igboland makes it seem like it is general, which it definitely isn't.

Number 5 will not cost you your life in at least the part of Igboland I am familiar with. The two people involved will perform ikpụ alụ rites and be re-integrated into society. I even know a case that led to the birth of a child. The child was given away to an orphanage, the boy and the girl did ikpụ alụ, and life went on.

Good write up....


Keep on....

At least you are the voice of Ndi Igbo.....
