Man Allegedly Banished From his IGBO community in IMO State For Maiming:Membis247Blog

An unidentified man has allegedly been banished from Uzubi, Obodoukwu, in Imo State, after he confessed that he has killed a lot of people in the community.

A source who spoke to the media about the incident said that the man claimed that the spirits of the couple he killed had been tormenting him, and that was the reason he started confessing his atrocities to the villagers.

The angry youths of the community had to banish him from the community, and warned him never to set his foot there again to avoid being lynched. It is said that the incident happened on Friday February 4th.

In the viral video which surfaced on the internet, the man was seen with palm fronds around his neck, as the residents of the community sang and chased him out of their land.

As expected, the video attracted several reactions from members of the public, with many asking why the man was not handed over to the police so that he could be made to face the full wrath of the law, because by banishing him, he would simply move to another place and continue with his life.

Some said that banishing someone is Igbo culture, that killing someone who killed another is also killing in Igboland, so instead of killing the person, they banish such a person from their land. They said that banishing someone is perhaps the worst punishment they can give the person.

Some said that by banishing the person, it means the person is dead to them. That no one from there can ever have any business to do with the person again.

Why Women Contract HIV More Than Men Finally Explained wanisheik Aug 27, 2021 Over the years, females all over the world have contracted HIV more than their male counterparts. But that wasn' t what we were made to believe in the past. There used to be a perception that men were at a higher risk of contracting the virus than women. As of mid- 1996, the Joint UN Program on AIDS evaluated that out of the twenty- five million adults infected with HIV, over ten million are women.
