A shocking video capturing a little boy chanting incantations to appease his traditional god has sparked discussion among Internet users, leading to the comparison between the Western religion and Africa’s traditional culture.
In the video shared, the little boy could be seen worshipping his idol as he chants and eulogizes the Goddess of Wealth popularly known as “Aje”. He was spotted sitting with other kids making offerings to appease the god.
However, the little boy’s display of worship has been criticized by some Internet users, who believe it is demonic for a child to be allowed to practice the traditional religion at a tender age.
As the video continues to go viral, it has undeniably garnered attention and stirred debates about the existence of African history and spirituality before the practice of Western religion. Some netizens have declared the sovereignty of Jesus Christ over the African gods while others believe Africans have forgotten their cultural heritage.
