Culture


Culture as we know it is the way of life of people. Different people have different cultures. 

The uniqueness of individuals, their ways, and how they approach activities of the day is partly or completely influenced by their respective cultures. Culture other than being a representation of a people's uniqueness is political, it finds its influence in people's fashion and foods. Culture also defines the roles of individuals in a society, through culture we can identify the status of individuals in their various societies.

Culture is as old as civilization, and it happens that, during the early days of man, through advancement from the wild living of hunting and gathering to domestication, man has through observation, developed ideologies and tools to make his domestic living worthwhile. These ideologies form a crux of the views and ideas that have come to Crystalize as a culture.

From the dedication of a child born to the people, to the burial ceremony of the dead. From the merry of a given moment and work ethics, the celebration of the female circumcision to the marriage of the virgin maiden. The celebration of manhood and people of the same age prepare the society for leadership. And the various skills set required by the genders of the society, spark the colors of culture.

The easiest way to know about a people is knowing about their culture
