This App be interesting Pass.
People become savvy about everything all of a sudden.
@OyooQuartey Reminds me of when Architect Adjaye in his current lecture at KNUST.
Said he knows a white guy in U.S who knows Ghana and our culture probably more than all of those seated in the Auditorium..
@ProValic Having your Christian name only emphasizes your aligience to Christ. And if you think Christianity was brought to us by the colonial masters then read Again. The missionaries brought us Christ. Empowered us by writing our languages for us and gave us alphabets not the Colonialist
@ProValic And shines the light unto the Dark and inhumane cultural Practices of the people. To help the people to be transformed and developed.
So I am first a Child of God from the Eweland so my Name and Identity should encapsulate that.....2/3
@theRaiBoyy@Ed_kobbi Yes including Emefa.
I get why Ewe people who probably did not grow up in the region will probably have this same shock,
because they did not seat in classrooms were you had A guy and a lady all bearing Emefa ๐๐.
So literally all our Middle Names are Unisex.
@BEmepher@Ed_kobbi So our Middle Names are given based on what your parents believe God did for them, by bringing you as a gift to them.
So they are in themselves Phrases of praises to God or the circumstance of your Birth.
So it was never based on gender.
I do perfectly get your surprise though
@BEmepher@Ed_kobbi So all our Middle Names are unisex, Because they are Phrases or Appellations that glorifies God the creator.
So to you they sound as just name.
But to we the speaker that simple name like "Emefa" is a phrase which you could use in our Day to Day conversation...... 1/2
@stanlee0nX@jayhemz Sound Dump ? ๐
What did you hear about Edison we don't know Mr. Wise ๐.
Even Newton who came 2 centuries before Edison was humble to acknowledge he did what he did because of his predecessors. And you talk of Edison who was just stealing inventions of his workers and Patenting.
@sirfolajomi I see how you did not want to bother them on how the corner is supported with a Column in tension from the top. Different from the usual gravity loaded columns in compressions.
That's peak Engineering ๐
@_Rvji It always been a profession that affords Social Mobility (Vertical). Since it's inception.
Due to the economic strata in our part of the world.
It makes sense as why that's an assured route. It has often been a profession of status rather than passion.
