Some dancing, invocations followed by a speech about humility, blessings from God and the continued livelihood of our people and finally the cutting of the nut. Nothing mysterious, tribal or primitive about it.

A village chief from Abia State (Umuahia, Umekwule village) blessing the Kola nut. As we say: he who brings Kola brings life.

Long live, Biafra!

Now, make I go interpret onyocha (white man) style:

(caucasian BBC voice) in this clip, we see the Eeboe traditional CHIEF of the primitive TRIBE being called to the centre of the VILLAGE SQUARE (wtf it's in a church building at a party yo). Here, he will perform ancient rites to his pagan god.

It all begins with an ancient, traditional dance meant to appeal to the bloodthirsty AFRIKAN gods who demand sacrifice. Then he invokes ancient pagan sprits of unknown, dark origin to take part in the ritual. Finally, he speaks to the community about how they must remain vigilant, afraid of him as he is the supreme dictator and pay him tax. The human sacrifice section of the event was not included out of sensitivity to our viewers at home (end BBC covering).
