  • Nigeria - In a Community called Isi ehi Umu Igwe, Amakama lies an ancient living tree, that has a hollow that can take up to 5 grown men. There are about 8 of these trees in the Amakama community representing the 8 villages that make up the community.
    Amakama is in Umuahia south local government of Abia State, Nigeria, and as part of my eastern Nigeria tour documentary, I decided to visit this place to learn about this community.

      Done deal bro 👌💯, ya if I could make a video request, could u do a Nigeria wilderness survival video, but the catch is not to hurt any living anim,plants if possible, you know like eating egg n mushrooms instead o killing things , but fruits n nuts green all on a healthy menu and shelter can b economical environmentally friendly 😉

    Trees are energy. They transmute pain, depression, anxiety with positive vibrations and spiritual affirmations. If you hug a tree your energy elevates. If you place your back to a tree your mind clears from sabotage. To live near trees with their age is even better. They are like fallen angels here to protect.

      I feel that this ,like much of the beautiful, sacred , treasured, and mysterious features of our beloved, land of ALL HUMANITY is not "untapped" but instead , hidden, underappreciated , and unrecognized by those in governmental positions who's only agenda is to keep a tight lid on the blessing of this country, so as to keep tourism down, and so it stays underfunded in every way.
      God help them if these areas should become popular or be recognize by UNESCO as they should...

    This is mind blowing but I would like to correct the notion that this can only be found only in Nigeria. There is the barbao tree all over Southern Africa but I know for a fact that specifically in Botswana there is baobao tree which was used as a prison back in the days. This very tree is Kasane, Botswana. These are just the mystery of God for mankind.

    Great job. It is unbelievable to see a tree that has such hollow from ground floor to the top. It is very amazing tree, it will be wise to make that place tourist attraction center. I watched the coverage with great passion from USA. Thanks to Mazi David Nkwa for such profound short film.
