Humanity- That Misunderstood word
Tuesday, May 8, 2012 12:36:47 PM
Most of us have heard of the African proverb "Umuntu Ngumuntu Ngabantu" this is also reffered to as the "UBUNTU" saying, which is very respected in some countries of the world,not just in Africa.
Some nations are humanitarians, but do we have any idea what humanity is about?,Where it originates, When it is genuine and when it should be credited? This is but the thoughts of an imperfect African citizen:
Humanity is an African idea, which dates back to before the start of civilisation. Our African ancestors have been humanitarians since forever, they welcomed other people into our precious continent, treated them as kings and queens,showered them with gifts and all best things we had to offer.
Need I say more?
