RE: Myths

Regarding bush babies, they exist. Only a handful of people have come across them among them being my mom, my cousin and me. I never got to encounter it though because I was smart (unlike some people) to know that I shouldn’t go and check for the strange noise. At 2am at night!

My mom wasn’t so lucky neither was my cousin. The curious ones always receive it woto woto 🤣

Sort:  

Hahahaha. So it actually does flog?
I never believed the people who told their stories

I don’t know about the flogging but the mat is real. My cousin saw it during one of his trips to fetch water in boarding school. My mom saw it because something was scratching at our door and she was curious as to what it was. Me? Immediately I heard that baby crying in front of the house (particularly our room) I just loud music and went to bed. Is not me that will be killed by curiosity

HaHahaha.
Is the animal that strong? Can't someone just bundle it and collect the mat?

It’s a spiritual something. That’s the only superstition that’s not at all superstitious. It’s real. That mat… it’s almost impossible to get it. Those who succeed may not live to enjoy the wealth that comes with it.

According to Western culture (because they especially in Chicago believe in the bush baby as well, I heard it’s rampant in their woods), taking that mat is symbolic. They have a name I can’t remember just like they refer to Spirit husband and wife (that we call them in Nigeria) as Succubus/Incubus, bush baby has a name.

Omoh, I'm getting to know more about this thing. I have always thought it's all a lie and just some stories formed by certain individuals
