Shocking Moment Masquerade prays at Mary's Grotto before setting out [Video]

Praying today has become what everyone does, even masquerades; yes, you heard right, masquerades. In a video on TikTok shared by a user @iamchief_o which has also been shared on Twitter by @apro_dawildcat, a masquerade was seen on his knees praying in a Catholic Mary's grotto. 

Going by the masquerade costume, the theme song from the video, and the people following the masquerade, of a certainty, the video emanated from the eastern part of the country.

Shockingly, the masquerade knelt down in a prayer mood, meditating and praying while he was surrounded by some young men fanning him while praying.

It was an awkward scene where after praying for a time, he got up to leave, and the people followed him and met other groups of people who were waiting eagerly to receive him.
