The respect for ancestors and family were so deep that they were buried under the floor of the family house when they died. They believed their spirits remained with them and protects the family.

They believed health is wealth. If the people in the community are not well it means the Te community is sick as well.

They have discovered many herbs from plants a long while ago before the advent of science and technologies.

Their tradition are still In existence till today but in modernised way.

Out of the plants they used has drug to cure illness is 'ewe Dongoyaro'(Azaadiracta indica).

Azaadiracta indica is a plant known to be native to India and it subcontinent. It is known to belong to Maliacea family .

Indian called it naeem plant. It is found in Nigeria, My tribe called 'ewe dongoyaro' or 'ewe oba'.

The products of the plant either synthetically or naturally is very important in preventing diseases and very good for treatment.

It enhance activities of antioxidant, inhibit growth of bacterial and adjust genetic pathways.

Many research are still being carried out on it to know more about it's therapeutic roles in managing diseases. This is because it has less side effect and not costly.

Some people prefer taking the herb raw. It is effective in treating malaria. But many have abuse the usage simply because the dosage can not be easily predicted by them.
