AFRICAN PERSONAL NAMES

The Book Contributes Towards The Rediscovery Of The Concept Of African-Ness And The Rejuvenation Of The African Tradition And Culture. It Is In The Hope Of Saving The African Way Of Life That Pro-Africanists Have Found It Necessary To Hold On To Their Native African Names And Encourage Their Use As A Means Of Espousing The Cultural Heritage Of The People.. Though The Main Focus Is On African Names The Book Slides In Brief Moments Into Some Cultural Elements Of The African People. There Is So Much To Be Said About The People Of Africa That This Book Cannot Now Fulfil. However It Is Anticipated That African Names Are A Good Start To Highlight The Essential Features Of The Life Of The People.. Consequently It Is Expected That The Book Would Aim To Signify And Reflect The Rich Diversity Of Africa’S Ethnic And Rural Communities.
