@africandaily_x The journey of no return in the olding days was painful, people 💔 were tortured at will, some gave up along the line.
Irrespective of this, one needs to know his/her self properly first and also embrace the history that comes with it.

Mental Slavery and Religion in Africa
By Kingsmart
Mental slavery is when your mind is chained even after your body is free. In Nigeria and across Africa, the strongest chain today is the way religion has been used to erase how we think about ourselves.
They replaced our names with their names
Before colonialism, an Igbo child was named okoro, a male child, Nwando, nkwo, Nweke. Those names spoke to our relationship, with ancestors, with the land. Missionaries told us those names were “pagan.” So we dropped them for John, Mary, Peter. When you can’t even keep your name, you stop knowing who you are.
They made us ashamed of our own system
What we called Odi na be ndi — the way of the people — was labeled idolatry, darkness, witchcraft. Our elders became “witch doctors.” Our festivals became “evil.” Our courts became “backward.” Once you make a people ashamed of their system, they will beg for yours, even if yours doesn’t fit their land.
They made religion separate from life
In Africa, spirituality was never separate from farming, justice, family, and war. It was all one system. The Europeans split it. You go to church on Sunday, then live under colonial law and colonial education the rest of the week. That split created confusion. Now we pray for what our ancestors would have built with their hands.
The chain is still in the mind
The physical slave trade ended, but the mental one didn’t. Today many Nigerians will defend foreign religious leaders more than their own history. We argue about which foreign book is right, while our own proverbs, laws, and knowledge sit in dust. That’s mental slavery: fighting for the prison that holds you.
Breaking it
Breaking mental slavery doesn’t mean hating other religions. It means knowing what was yours before they came. It means calling Odi na be ndi by its name again. It means teaching your children their language, their history, and their way of organizing family and community. A free mind remembers first.

A symbolic photo showing an African elder teaching children under a tree, with traditional symbols like the kola nut and umunna meeting in the background, while faded images of a church and colonial documents sit in the background out of focus. The focus is on the elder and children — showing the return to what was ours.

@EdehChinonso9 You clearly understood what's going on behind the scene.
Arsenal tried this young squad stuff buh wasn't clicking before arteta came and edu gasper the then sporting director signed a couple of good and average players buh later on arsenal made a good decision to appoint Berta.

Interesting rumor if true. Giving any manager full transfer control is a big shift for Chelsea, their recent issues have often stemmed from mismatched recruitment more than just coaching. Alonso’s a sharp tactician, but success will depend on whether the board actually steps back or if this is another cycle.

Chelsea has reportedly offered Xabi Alonso the one thing they denied every other manager: Total Control. He’s already asking about CB targets to fix the defense. Is this finally the end of the 'Board-led' era? Does Xabi get your vote if he has the final say on transfers? 🇪🇸💙

Manchester united = 18wins 🤭
David Raya = 18 clean sheets ✅

@EdehChinonso9 Yes no need for experiment now, if handed over the key like your arteta we'll pick up.

@Chiluck39 Alonso feels like the higher-upside choice. His Leverkusen project showed real tactical identity and stability. Silva would be safer short-term, but Chelsea needs more than that right now.

@TrueQueen01 Kai Havertz against Chelsea is a big problem always trying to prove a point

Be honest:If you could delete ONE player from your rival's squad so they never played against you again,who are you picking?
I’ll start:Erling Haaland.25 goals this season and he still gets called a 'ghost.If he’s a ghost,he’s the scariest one in football history.Who is yours?

@Chiluck39 Chelsea fans what's your take? Personally I think what you need more is stability and good manager

If you had to pick between Enzo Fernandez, Joao Pedro and Marc Cucurella, who deserves the Chelsea Player of the Season award? @TheChelseaForum
