Are Traditional Spiritual Beliefs Still Widespread in Modern Nigerian Cities?
This thread argues that modern living has not erased traditional spiritual beliefs. Many people in cities may speak different languages and live in modern buildings, yet still hold beliefs linked to juju, witchcraft and idol worship. The writer distinguishes between professing Christians and people they believe genuinely live by Christian faith. They also question why some Christians pray over food, clothes and other items, suggesting that fears of spiritual harm remain common. Do you agree that traditional spiritual practices are still deeply present in urban communities, or does this view unfairly generalise people’s beliefs?
