As a strong captain, even if you don’t know what lies beneath the sea you just have to keep the ship sailing.
May God deliver us from a confused government where the people in the government cannot even explain what is happening in the government
You can take a traditional man from a traditional gathering but you can not take tradition out of that man.
Chief Ayiri Emami @ayiri_emami The Ologbotsere of Warri Kingdom is a man I do not have personal relationship with. But because of his love for creative art and African tradition, men like him awakens my hope that African will be great some day and I’m proud to be an African.
Presentation of drinks and kola nut is one of the oldest way of traditional entertainment in Africa.
It’s a process where kola nut is presented to a visitor or visitors base on numbers or presented in a ceremony as a traditional way of saying welcome and this gesture is reciprocated by traditionally accepting it by somebody from the midst of those entertained.
But are you are aware that in Okpe Kingdom when an Okakuro (Chief) present drinks and kola nut to you or group of persons, it is only a Chief from your midst that can accept it traditionally but if there is no Chief in your midst the Chief who presented it will accept it on your behalf or delegate somebody from your midst to accept it or he can also ask somebody from his own side to accept it. So if you are not a Chief, and he gives to you he is in charge and if you also give to him, he is still in charge.
So it is a Chief to Chief thing, age does not matter in this case.
This is what I call TRADITIONAL SOCIAL STRATIFICATION
