THE NEED FOR AFRICANS TO ASSIMILATE THEIR CULTURAL HERITAGE


 

 

Africa a great nation, home to magnificent creatures and vast medicinal plants, how amazing is our culture? How beautifully made are we? With our extraordinary artistic work beautiful men and women, sweet and nutritious meal, Africa our mother land, despite being the second largest continent in the world, Africa have had series of outstanding history and extremely great rulers over its various religion.


Africa the land of our forefathers even before the enslavement of Africa, Africans has always been blessed and the blessings of God never seized from this great nations, the incredible weather, the multi languages the beautiful traditions the great leaders the astonishing seas and oceans, how amazing? Indeed Africa is a great and beautiful nation.


But all of these are fading away, our culture our customs being thrown to the dust, Africans adapting the western world forgetting where they came from, emulating the eastern system not even knowing the stories of their fathers, some Africans in the western world have chosen to forget their African linage, admiring and worshiping the western roots how pathetic can that be? Abandoning their heritage, True, all lands are unique in their own way, but being a lost sheep in another man's land should be a shame, Africans should embrace themselves their customs and traditions.



Even africans living in africa nowadays forget thier culture as africans being possessed by the western part of the world tongue of speaking which is wrong, copying the day to day life of the western world forsaking their own custom and traditions and mostly depending on foreign world for survival. Most africans nowadays dont even accept being africans instead they claim both the western and eastern part of the world.


However just a few still recognize,appreciate, and are proud  of their culture while majority are lost, an African man is suppose to know his customs, learn his tribe, know his language, embrace and teach his or her children for the culture to go on because we were created in Africa and there is a reason for that, and it is needful for every Africans to assimilate their traditions.


Although the western world is not an abysmal place to be, it is of course a land flowing with milk and honey, a land of opportunities and of course the white man's land. But a man should never forget his culture, where he is from, his tribe, and the home of his fathers.
