A video circulated online showing people dressed in white attire placing biscuits, fruits, drinks, and other items into a body of water, an act many viewers interpreted as a ritual or sacrifice to deities. The footage sparked mixed reactions, with some expressing shock that such practices still occur.
One striking comment read “We did this a lot when I was growing up. We pick money a lot. Even candles and coconut, and sweets. Na we be the gods.” The response suggested that adults would later retrieve the items placed in the water, reframing the ritual as something exploited for personal gain. The comment stripped the act of its spiritual meaning and instead portrayed it as deceptive or self-serving, intensifying the controversy around the video.
