[edit] Generic Connotations

Nigeria as a country has over 250 languages, and hence different customs. The use of the phrase 'Nigerian Tribal Law' is generic and does not take into account the fact that the customs are very diverse and the suicide required may be unique to the Yorubas. I have modified the phrase 'Nigerian Tribal Law' to 'Yoruba Tradition.'

It is less generic, and also less offensive -- as the use of the word 'tribal' implies. Azuka 06:46, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
