Africa is a very great continent with so much powers to their dispensation, it is the world's second most populous and second largest nation.
We are usually described as the major blacks and it is believed that we use our powers to carry out different activities which might be good or bad.
Nigeria is where I can speak of properly because I am a full blooded Nigerian.
We are usually described as the giant of Africa and truly we are, we have the powers to do good and evil.
Nigeria has so many gods as each ethnic group believes in their own god/goddess. We have over 401 dieties usually referred to as Orisa. The Yoruba community alone has a long list of gods/goddess ranging from Osun- the river goddess to
Ogun- the ruler of iron
Sago - the ruler of thunder
Sopono- ruler over diseases, and so many others.
On our special market days,we can decide to stop the rain or even when we have special events we describe it as pushing the rain forward to other days.
My Dad went for a burial ceremony he was invited to and when he came back he shared his experience with us and he described it as being the most scary thing he had ever seen , he said when he got there that some elders from the man's village came to the scene and asked everyone to stand still, they made some incantation and the dead man stood up from the coffin and explained to them the misery behind his death and where he kept all his asset after which he laid down back into the coffin and he was buried properly, throughout that day my dad was unstable, we tried all we could to calm him down but all to no avail.
If you are type that talks too much, carefully select your words when you are close to an African man because they might not make noise with you but all they need to do is to just tap you and the story continues......
The best word to describe an African man is simply amazing.
