African Proverb Of The Day. by Giyerte(m): 6:36am On Jun 22, 2015 |
Proverbs are an integral part of African culture. Passed on from generation to generation for centuries, they are still in wide use today and are very much part of everyday speech. Proverbs are used to illustrate ideas, reinforce arguments and deliver messages of inspiration, consolation, celebration and advice. The great Nigerian author Chinua Achebe once wrote: "Proverbs are the palm oil with which words are eaten."
