On many occasions, people have shown displeasure and claiming that this kind of Igba Kori is uncalled for. Let me start by saying that there’s nothing wrong in including plastic dummies inside the Korikoto calabash of display.
Kori is known as one aspect of Egbe that supports and takes care of kids. Kori is the defender of children and the giver of their wants. The big container in the lady’s head contains stuffs like beautiful beads, cloths, dolls, and every other things that kids will find attractive and love to have. some people even add eatables to it.
Whether we like it or not, plastic dolls are part of what kids in today’s world find attractive. We can say wooden dolls should also be included but nothing wrong when plastic dolls are also there.
Egbe Orisa Kori is after the well-being of kids in particular. Not just kids in the olden days who played with wooden dolls but also kids in this present time who also love the plastic dolls.
