This is the reason they claim Africans have no ancient writing despite Egajam Nsibidi, many African writings on human bodies, caves, potteries, animals and tattoos. Instead of us to appreciate them and call people who cannot read them illiterates, this one comes here to talk about global from his village.

Those who can count in thousands, Yoruba, when Europe could neither read nor write are called illiterate

Slowpoke.

Mention one thing that is global that originated from your local area.

Colo-mentality.
