NIGERIAN🇳🇬ISLAM SHEIKH GUMI WARNS IBRAHIM TRAORÉ OVER REJECTING SHARIA LAW IN BURKINA FASO Kwabena Ofori Osei 12 Views • 12 days ago

Sheikh Ahmad Gumi has issued a strong warning over Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s rejection of Sharia law in Burkina Faso — and the controversy is now attracting major attention across Africa.

In this latest Africa news analysis, we examine the growing clash between Sheikh Gumi and Burkina Faso’s leader Ibrahim Traoré over Sharia law, secular governance, religious freedom, national sovereignty and the future direction of Burkina Faso.

Traoré has made it clear that Burkina Faso will remain a secular state and that no religious law will supersede the country’s national legal framework. Recent reports say Sheikh Gumi criticized Traoré’s position and questioned his approach to the sensitive issue of religion and governance.

So why has this issue become so controversial?

What does Traoré’s position mean for Burkina Faso, the wider Sahel and the Alliance of Sahel States?

Why is Sheikh Gumi challenging Traoré’s position?

And could this disagreement become part of a much larger debate about religion, sovereignty and political independence in West Africa?

This video provides a detailed analysis of the latest development and explains the wider implications for Burkina Faso, Nigeria, the Sahel region and Africa.

Watch until the end and share your opinion in the comments.

Do you agree with Ibrahim Traoré’s position on Sharia law in Burkina Faso, or do you agree with Sheikh Gumi?

Expert Biblical Scholar PROVES Moses and Ancient Israel Was INVENTED
Expert Biblical Scholar PROVES Moses and Ancient Israel Was INVENTED Kwabena Ofori Osei 258 Views • 2 years ago

Dr. Gad Barnea is not your typical Bible scholar—he’s reshaping how we view ancient Judaism and the Hebrew Bible, tackling one of its core assumptions: that Moses and his story are older than the 4th century BCE. As a Lecturer in Jewish History and Biblical Studies at the University of Haifa and a Research Fellow at the École biblique et archéologique Française, Dr. Barnea focuses on Yahwism under the “Iranian Age of Empires,” exploring how Persian rule and Zoroastrianism likely shaped early Judaism, suggesting the Moses narrative may have emerged far later than commonly thought.Beyond texts, Barnea has uncovered a groundbreaking ostracon from Elephantine, the earliest known Jewish curse text, and evidence of a Jewish priestess—a revelation about ancient Jewish rituals. He’s also restored a Qumran scroll (4Q550) containing a forgotten Achaemenid court tale, set to release with Brill, and co-edits a book on “Yahwism under the Achaemenid Empire.”With years of tech experience, Barnea is also advancing Digital Humanities, making biblical studies accessible and transforming how we understand figures like Moses in light of hellenistic influences.overing a history that reshapes our understanding of the Bible and Moses himself.Dr. Gad Barnea linksAcademia - https://haifa.academia.edu/gadbarneaHis new book free open access - https://www.degruyter.com/docu....ment/doi/10.1515/978 the other awesome interview with Dr. Gad Barnea on @GnosticInformant https://youtu.be/ZEEhqRxfFck?si=i8iK20IDP6J0ZYmz

Spiral Dynamics: The Ultimate Theory of Human Development | 2020
Spiral Dynamics: The Ultimate Theory of Human Development | 2020 Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 25 Views • 5 years ago

Spiral Dynamics Integral Theory is a Human Developmental model that encompasses all of human development and consciousness into 8 stages. The model was created by Don E. Beck and Christopher C. Cowan, and is based off the work Clare W. Graves had started. The 8 stages are: Beige, Purple, Red, Blue, Orange, Green, Yellow, and Turquoise. Each stage represents a type of worldview, thought structure, and an overall rationale for decisions being made. Basically, each stage represents a sort of track that consciousness runs through. As one moves up the spiral, they gradually take on a position of higher perspective, and gradually showcase a higher level of concern for all sentient beings. This model is important for one to learn as it represents a sort of roadmap that one follows as they self-develop. If you are into spirituality, improving yourself, improving this world, and raising your awareness, this model is absolutely crucial to learn.

About me

Hello everyone, my name is Wyeth and I originally created this channel to share some insights about life and the universe that I had on psychedelics, and how they can be used to change one’s life for the better. Now, this has evolved into me seeking to dedicate my life to understanding the truth about the nature of reality, the self, and consciousness at the deepest level. Because these subjects deal with the fundamental nature of who we are, I believe knowledge from these fields can be used to help one live a more wholesome and authentic life in all aspects.

I pride myself in taking an anti-dogma approach in my inquiry, therefore I will examine all topics of interest through a variety of lenses. If this of interest to you, I highly suggest you become a Curious Mind by subscribing.

If you wish to get in touch with me, you can send me a DM on Instagram (where I post a lot more content about this stuff), or you can email me.

NKYINKYIM: The Creation of an African Museum | Kwame Akoto Bamfo | TEDxAccra Kwadwo Danmeara Tòkunbọ̀ Datɛ 40 Views • 6 months ago

Museums have long been unwelcoming or intimidating spaces for many, particularly ordinary Africans. In this powerful talk, Kwame Akoto Bamfo reimagines the museum experience through the lens of African heritage and community engagement. By embracing change as a constant force, Kwame demonstrates how interactive art and inclusive spaces can serve as healing, dialogue, and transformation mediums.

Through his work, he challenges traditional perceptions of museums and invites communities to reconnect with their identity and heritage. This talk is a compelling exploration of how art can celebrate cultural freedom and inspire others to embrace their role in shaping change narratives. Kwame Akoto-Bamfo is a Ghanaian sculptor, educator, and activist renowned for his dedication to preserving African history and promoting restorative justice through art. He earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) and Master of Fine Arts (MFA) in painting and sculpture from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

His seminal work, the Nkyinkyim Installation, is an evolving art project comprising over 1,500 portraits of Africans in the diaspora. This installation pays homage to the victims of the Transatlantic slave trade and is prominently featured at the National Memorial for Peace and Justice in Montgomery, Alabama.

In 2017, Akoto-Bamfo gained international attention with his "Faux-Reedom" exhibition, which featured 1,200 sculpted heads representing Ghana's enslaved ancestors. This powerful display questioned Ghana's independence and highlighted neo-colonial legacies.

Beyond his installations, Akoto-Bamfo actively participates in public speaking, research, and lectures, focusing on archiving and promoting African history and cultural heritage. His work has been featured in various documentaries and miniseries, including "Enslaved" (2020) and "The Art of Healing" (2022).

His contributions to art and activism have earned him several accolades, such as the GUBA Influential Artist of the Year in 2019 and the inaugural Kuenyehia Prize for Contemporary Art.

Through his art, Kwame Akoto-Bamfo continues challenging historical narratives, fostering healing, and inspiring restorative justice across the African diaspora. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at

A Forest Garden With 500 Edible Plants Could Lead to a Sustainable Future | Short Film Showcase
A Forest Garden With 500 Edible Plants Could Lead to a Sustainable Future | Short Film Showcase Ambakisye-Okang Dukuzumurenyi 36 Views • 5 years ago

Instead of neat rows of monoculture, forest gardens combine fruit and nut trees, shrubs, herbs, vines and perennial vegetables together in one seemingly wild setting. This type of agroforestry mimics natural ecosystems and uses the space available in a sustainable way. UK-based Martin Crawford is one of the pioneers of forest gardening. Starting out with a flat field in 1994, his land has been transformed into a woodland and serves as an educational resource for others interested in forest gardening. This short film by Thomas Regnault focuses on Crawford's forest garden, which is abundant, diverse, edible, and might be one answer to the future of food systems.
