On a visit to Mamfe Dove, a village in Ghana, BBC News Africa uncovered the amazing discovery that childbirth as well as burying the dead, is a forbidden.

The women of Mamfe Dove are not allowed to birth a child in the village, instead when in labour, they are taken outside the village and only allowed to return after her child is born.
