Someone please help me understand why he is doing this to the baby?

Introducing the baby’s immune system to the environment

He's welcoming her to this crazy world

I think I understand the guy. He is probably building the house for the baby

It's probably his culture babe yaz. Kuningi

The baby is probably the first member of the family to step into the construction sight ,there is a believe that when ever u build something people will put Muti so that u won't finish so a virgin helps in dismantling all the witch craft nonsense

Welcoming her to Umhlaba 🤭

She's being welcomed, this her father's home. We do this as amazulu but not all of us.

That is normally done when the kid is new and entering the house for the first time. That they must be known and welcomed it in. and she must also recognise the smell as a safe space

Lol welcoming the kid to the new world

Folks who recognise and honour their culture ❤️
