1.The name Africa is actually a white mans name. A white man named scipio africanus. So by calling ourselves africans are we re-enforcing our subjectivity to white-power ?

2.The image of cesare borgia that is worshipped all over africa as jesus is actually the image of the son of pope alexander the 6th. The europeans during the renaissance painted all the image of black people (as black people were the dominant force prior to that and the image of a black jesus was the norm all over the world) white. they white washed all the images and arts and history. this was why it was called the RENAISSANCE. the image of cesare borgia was painted by leonardo da vinci. and ever since then the whole world has been worshipping the image of the son of pope alexander the 6th. if that is not idolatry i dont know what is.

3. The name lagos is actually a portuguese city in portugal. When the portuguese came to nigeria they named it lagos because it was a sea port and looked like their own lagos. The name has stuck ever since.

question ? is it too late to reclaim our dignity by switching these things or is it too far gone to even bother ?

abuja has since replaced lagos as the capital and we now have presidents who never wear suits but agbada and cowboy hats.
