This is actually a very personal one, because I know that even before the British colonized my nation, Nigeria, people figured out how to survive. People knew that when dangerous snakes bite people, there were locals, indigenous people, who knew the right leaves, herbs, to use to cure the snake bites. There were women who could deliver babies right in the farm. There was no hospital, they were not trained in any clinic. But they have figured, after years and centuries, they knew the right herbs to give the woman upon delivery.

In my local village in Nigeria, Ebu, when a new child is called Ozogi, 'ozogi' means the child is born on the road to farm, or the child is born on the farm. So whenever you see a child named Ozogi it means that that child was born in the farm. And when I am talking of farm, I am not talking of the tractor-based farm, I am talking of local non-[...] system...
