Give The Names Of These Five African Rulers And Win Cash Prize by Emperordynasty: 4:43pm On Apr 11 |
Good day Fellow nairalanders of the culture section. Its sad that with the rich culture of Africa and nigeria in particular most of us do not care or know enough about our rich history. When Alexander the great, Julius ceaser and Napolean are mentioned alot of africans have an idea or two about these people But when it come to the great rulers of our ancieny kingdoms and empires little is known about them. Because we are thought to forget our past and consider our culture of a lower breed which is WRONG Being a lover of culture and a student of history i want to use every medium i can to encourage us to delve deep into our history and relish in the glorious deeds of our ancestor. So today i bring a game and the first person to pass this game wins the 5k prize.. I dont have much o, its a passion thing and i want to encourage others to enjoy african history. I will do this game as often as I can so help me God. Now the rules of this game is simple. I will drop Five of imaginated illustrations with writen clues who ever can state the correct names of these five rulers wins the 5k prize. Hope understand. The first person to state all five of their names wins o. Nigeria has such a beautiful mix of culture lets relish it and avoid Disunity and hatred At number 1. (Clues) The All father of Western and part of southern Nigerian mythological and historical development. Has a lot of connection with chains. This one is easy abeg
