I am sure this is similar to the loudspeakers or noise (so to speak) by other religious bodies some people complain about , particularly Mosques and churches.
And even laws are made to tame such nuisance . why hasnt same be applied here ?

What is Oro?

It's a native Yoruba festival from ancient times. During Oro festival (a festival of sacrifice), there is restriction of movement. This varies from community to community. In some communities, only women are restricted from going out. In some, non-indigenes, whether male or females, are also affected. In others, everyone is prohibited from going out, unless you're a chief in that community.

Before Oro, an announcement is made in the community that no one should step out. This is usually followed by a chilling warning: "If your goat or hen goes missing the during the festival, you should look for it but if your person goes missing, don't bother looking for them."

During an Oro festival, of the Oro cult parade the community with the Oro masquerade, looking for anybody that violated the curfew. Violators can face serious consequences. In some places, the person may be killed and sacrificed to the Oro deity.

Many have argued that the ritual murder of human beings for any reason is barbaric and that Oro should be either stopped or modified. But many Yorubas continue to the practice, insisting that ancient practices must continue for the preservation of culture.
