We all know that school life was the golden period of our lives but gone are the days for every 90s kid. We often say we don't realise the value of the moment till it's gone, the same goes with school memories. Also, 90s school kids were probably the last generation that spent time outside playing with friends and not on mobile games. 90s kids have school friends, not Facebook friends. We were the last generation of kids who truly knew how to be kids. These days, playing outside has been replaced by sitting inside texting, playing video games and surfing the internet. All of us have great memories from the 90s school life as opposed to social media life and digital networking. So, lets relive some beautiful memories of school life /social /family whatever relic you have you from The 90's old fartfaces. Please let us in on which images jogs up those blissful emotions and happy memories and stories

Traditional African Religions Countless religious traditions inform the inhabitants of the African continent, each with its own distinct practices and beliefs based on region and ethnicity. Because Africa contains diverse people groups, and their religions remain deeply tied to geography and tribal lands, the continent’s history is a tapestry of distinct spiritual traditions. Many share common threads, including the belief in spirits, respect for the dead, and the importance of the intersection between humanity and nature. Also common: many of these religions rely on oral history and tradition, rather than scriptures. Though Christianity and Islam are today the dominant religious traditions in Africa, informal estimates place the number of adherents to Traditional African Religions at 100 million. The following list — borrowed from Wikipedia — identifies some of the best known or most prominent of these religions: Bushongo mythology (Congo) Lugbara mythology (Congo) Baluba mythology (Congo) Mbuti mythology (Congo) Akamba mythology (Kenya) Lozi mythology (Zambia) Tumbuka mythology (Malawi) Zulu mythology (South Africa) Dinka religion (South Sudan) Hausa animism (Chad,Nigeria, Gabon) Lotuko mythology (South Sudan) Maasai mythology (Kenya, Tanzania, Ouebian) Kalenjin religion(Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania) Dini Ya Msambwa (Bungoma, Trans Nzoia, Kenya) San religion (South Africa) Traditional healers of South Africa Manjonjo Healers of Chitungwiza of Zimbabwe Akan religion (Ghana, Ivory Coast) Dahomean religion (Benin, Togo) The Great Efik mythology (Nigeria) Edo religion (Benin kingdom, Nigeria) Hausa animism (Benin, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Niger, Nigeria, Togo) Odinani (Igbo people, Nigeria) Serer religion (Senegal, Gambia, Mauritania) Ifa religion (Nigeria, Benin, Togo) West African Vodun (Ghana, Benin, Togo, Nigeria) Dogon religion (Mali) Juju (Nigeria) Vodun (Benin)

Zoroastrianism Zoroastrianism is considered one of the world’s oldest religions, and some of its earliest ideas — messianism, posthumous judgment, and the duality of heaven and hell — are believed to have informed the evolution of Judaism, as well as Gnosticism, Christianity, and Islam. Its founding figure, Zoroaster, was an innovative religious thinker and teacher who is believed to have lived between 700 BCE and 500 BCE in Persia (modern-day Iran). Its primary text, the Avesta, combines the Gathas (Zoroaster’s writings) with the Yasna (the scriptural basis of Zoroastrianism). Zoroaster’s influence loomed large in his time and place. In fact, Zoroastrianism was soon adopted as the official state religion of the Persian Empire and remained so for nearly a thousand years. Zoroaster’s ideas finally fell out of authority after the Muslim conquest of Persia in the seventh century CE. What followed was centuries of persecution and suppression by Muslim conquerors, to the point of almost entirely snuffing out Zoroastrian teachings and practices in the Arabic-speaking world. These practices have seen a small resurgence in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, with some Iranians and Iraqi Kurdish populations adopting Zoroastrianism as a mode of resistance to theocratic governance. Today, there are roughly 190,000 Zoroastrians, mostly concentrated in Iran, Iraq, and India
