Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - For Biko Agọzi ọ and Toyin Adepoju

O jigbi jigbi, o gbujekwe.

Eskor Toyo taught us to leave religious sectarianism alone because religion is a free country where you believe what you choose and choose what you believe or not believe. Once you start debating the religious faiths of others, you tend to become sectarian. Once religion is politicized, the country tends to go to the dogs. So, we refuse to be drawn into sectarian debates about which faith is the best path, so long as oppression of others is not dressed up as religious faith. All we know is that all the Abrahamic religions of the Book originated in or near Africa before being weaponized by Europeans for the conquest, enslavement, and colonization of Africans. Demystify, decolonize and develop Africa.
