A female regent in Nigeria has sent social media into a frenzy after she spelt out the do’s and don’ts handed to her.
Regent Ibijoke Tabitha, a female traditional monarch explained that firstly it is a taboo for her to be seen in female attires like skirts and gowns.
It is expected of her to always be on male attires day in and day out. The lady who spoke in Yoruba added that it is also required of her never to open her hair or kneel before anyone, including her mother.
Continuing, she said that it is a taboo for her to go near any man, saying this is because she is considered a man herself.
Regent Ibijoke is never to eat out. The lady lamented that she s tired of wearing male clothes and would have backed out if these taboos were spelt out before her installation.
Basically, regency is a situation embedded in some Yoruba culture whereby an interim king, mostly female, is crowned pending the period a male king will be selected.
