Why are people so foolish? 🤔 | Nigerian Folklore: Gods and Ancestors

Today, I’m diving into the rich world of Nigerian folklore with a reading from Gods and Ancestors: Mythic Tales of Nigeria by Bukar Usman.

This specific story, 'How Foolish People Were Created,' offers a humorous and insightful look at human nature through the lens of traditional myth.
At Give to Gain, we are all about bringing conversations from the margins to the mainstream.
