The Ultimate function of education is to secure the survival of a people. - Dr. Amos Wilson
Again this is a classic example of how the equal signs will kill us. The overzealous Kmtyw Pentecostal accuse traditional practitioners of serving more than one Supreme Being but nowhere in our stories, songs, drum texts, or proverbs can I find an instance where Abosom and Ɔdomankoma are considered equal. For example, we have a drum text about the sacred river Tanɔ,
Ɔkwan atware asuo,
Asuo atware kwan,
Ɔpanin ne hwan?
Yɛbɔɔ kwan yi kɔtoo asuo no.
Asuo yi firi tete.
Asuo yi firi Ɔdomankoma.
If the river Tanɔ comes from Ɔdomankoma than it's not equal just like no matter how old I get, I will never exalt myself above my parents.

You measure a people's potential for liberation based on how different their culture is from their oppressors
