Below are three most mysterious places in Nigeria.

1. Miracle stream, Enugu

In the month of November back in 2013, a mystery stream surprisingly appeared out of nowhere in Nachi community in Udi local government area of Enugu state almost 42 years after it allegedly surfaced and disappeared in the same place.

Local reports have it that the stream was first noticed by a Fulani herdsman

There were also alleged healing testimonies from sick people who either swam or drank from the stream.

How it was possible for that vast area of land to be filled with water about 5 feet deep in few minutes has remained unexplainable till date.

2. The Juju of Arochukwu

The shrine of Ibini Ukpabi is located deep inside the forest in Abia state. The difficult conditions set by the keepers of the shrine have made it difficult for people to visit the site. The journey requires crossing a river and a point of no return. It also includes sacrifices to be performed.

In 1901, the British become scared of the Aro imperial domination and economic control of the then impenetrable Igbo interior and ordered a military expedition that lasted 2 years. The mandate of the soldiers was to destroy the shrine together with the oracle of Ibin Ukpabi in Arochukwu which was believed to be the source of Aro imperial influence.

Evidence from archaeological finding discovered that the temple complex was not destroyed. The Aro were believed to have used their surpassing diplomacy and extraordinary tact to secretly preserve the sacred jungle where the temple was located.

Since then, the oracle of Ibin Ukpabi and the chamber presence of Chukwu have remained the best-kept secret of the people of Arochukwu. It is believed that the shrine has been lost in time as no one knows where or how to find the shrine.

3. The Nok culture

The NOK people lived in the Southern part of the old Kaduna state in central Nigeria. They were extremely advanced with one of the most complex judicial systems of the time and research have found they were the earliest producers of life-sized Terracotta in sub-Sahara dating back to 500BC.

Archaeologists are still marvelled at the perfection and accuracy of their works which up till this time, no one has been able to explain.

Also, research into the clay used in constructing these statues showed it came from a single source still unknown to researchers to this present day.

But the most shocking mystery about the NOK was their disappearance from the record. Apart from their works, there isn’t a single link between the present day people of Southern Kaduna with the NOK people of 200AD. They were wiped out of history, not even reason has been found for their mysterious disappearance.
