DO AWKA {SOUTH} PEOPLE IN ANAMBRA STATE WORSHIP MONKEYS ?

                                                                 Awka na aso enwe,meaning Awka forbids or don't eat monkey.It has been a story i have been hearing for a long time now that Awka people,that is to say the capital of Anambra state,forbids eating of monkeys.I confirmed my story from Mr Austin Dibor,from Awka Abnambra and he clearified these issue,for the sake of younger generation that don't understand the mistery behind the monkey story in Awka,Anambra state.Mr Austine Dibor argued that Awka people in Anambra state,do not worship monkeys,similarly,christians do not worship the stones that a cathedral is built with,but if you try breaking one stone out of a cathedral,they will go to confession for what they will do to you.He said almost every Awka person is a strong christian,christ said he didn't come to destroy the law.The respect we have for life in Awka is extended to all creatures of God and we are not to kill or eat any monkey because,there is a legend that many years ago,when invaders came to Awka,the monkeys were making loud noises which alerted our people and they took up arms and defeated the attackers since that time,monkeys are a protected spicies in Awka.The only place they have now is the Imo Awka forest and some people are now encroaching into it first by claiming they are doing Gods work by destroying the principle behind Imo Awka and we say Kabudo rejectamente.                 Mr Austin Dibor.
