⁣Ogbunigwe, the deadly mass destruction missile that made the Nigerian federal troops jittery, was a product of the scientific feat of the breakaway nation of Biafra. It was, allegedly, the first technology to be wholly designed, developed, mass-produced, and launched in Africa.

It was used in combat during the Nigeria-Biafra War (1967-1970) and at the height of production, about 500 units were being produced every day in Biafra. #HistoryVille #Ogbunigwe

Beads are a fundamental part of Ghanaian heritage. Not only they testament to the vibrance of Ghanaian creativity, but they also play a significant role in the country's history, rituals and culture.

Koforidua is a town in Eastern Region of Ghana located approximately 80 km from the capital and main commercial centre, Accra. The beads market is believed to have been in existence for over 200 years, previous locations having included open spaces. The current site is a dedicated market facility provided by the local government authority and is a weekly beads and crafts market which happens on a Thursday next to the Koforidua Jubilee Park. Locals are usually happy to give a visitor directions.

The space is filled with a myriad of units varying from shops to open-sided stalls (which look like temporary structures to the visitor) to table top displays. With facilities like these it goes without saying that on a rainy Thursday the market is pretty quiet.

Goods on offer include:

Beads
Beaded jewellery
Jewellery findings
Glass beads raw materials such as broken louvre blades and glass bottles
metal bars,
yarn
wood
leather and cowry bags
brass products and artefacts,
wood carvings and,
And anything else which might interest customers. There will, for example be small food and drinks sellers.

Exuding a sheer spirit of Jealous and envy driven by disbelief Some scholars and their students now try to portray to all others that the origins of ancient Egypt is shrouded in mystery. This diabolical and deceptive. Egypt in Africa. There was no Middle east at all.….
They add that Ancient Egyptian culture and religious writings seemed to spring up overnight. Using this ploy, the deceivers with unbridled pretense and outright lies create an Egypt totally separate from its more ancient powerful kingdom to the south.
It is these manufacture dishonesties spiced with fake statues, selective DNA from Greek Roman mummies and prejudiced literature now used to promote the idea that Egypt is a Mediterranean or Asian Civilisation not Afrikan! In this view therefore the Most powerful kingdom south of Egypt must be buried, ignored and not taught! However New findings are changing tall this. Millions are now rediscovering another ancient civilization which predates the civilizations of Egypt and Mesopotamia. A civilization which was until very recently, entirely unknown
There is an abundance of rock art found all over the central Sahara from Libya to Egypt to Mali. The rock art depicts elephants, crocodiles, dogs, hippos and rhinos - animals who do not live in the desert. Scenes of hunting and rituals are shown, with men wearing animal masks. There are representations in rock art of dog-headed human figures which resemble Anubis, and a type of stamped pottery decoration later found in the southern Nile valley.
