One thing still stands as regards tradition. AS LONG AS A CERTAIN TRADITION CANNOT ADD PROGRESSIVE VALUE TO THE LIVES OF IT'S FOLLOWERS, IT WILL SURELY FADE AWAY. IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME. When I say tradition, I mean all forms of tradition, culture and religion. 2 Likes |

kings11ng:Bros, if you love your 'culture' go and embrace your masquerade since he's part of you and give the Shamman (chief priest) ostrich eye, elephants milk blah blah. Most African cultural display involves a lot of sorcery but you are enjoying social media and cell phones things that your culture couldn't give you! |

omakay: When a people culture dies,so goes their language,precedences,norms,morals and their right to humanity. They become absorbed into the wider society they have no game plans for. They become hapless zombies,just like today's Africans. 1 Like |

People tend to mistake culture for fetish practices and witchhunting. But it not,it is just a way of life that is subject to change,innovations, alterations and norms that stands the test of time. 1 Like |

redsun: You are very right. I think what really happens is that when a certain people are shown/introduced to a way of life/thinking that is different from theirs and from all indications a lot more progressive than theirs, they tend to jump ship. It could not have being a bad idea but for the fact that there was no game plan in the former culture. For the most of us in this thread and in the society who are always clamouring that we do not abandon our culture, I got some questions for you. What progressive development have these cultures given us? What form of economic, social , political and technological advancement have these cultures instilled in us? If we were truly left to ourselves to move to the future along with the rest of the world, what would we exactly be moving on with? 1 Like |

omakay: ....You are so right!!....retrogressive,anti-progress African cultural practice that adds no value to lives must give way no matter how some folks cry and wail about 'oyibo slavery'.just like how twins were killed in the past because of 'culture' but not any longer(thank God) ...Witches and wizards dem..nonsense. |
