Common every picture you displayed here has a significance, when I looked at the first heading cultural mullato, the mullato to me sounded like a disorder because I haven't heard of such a word until now, this is a complete display of how a country colonised by a nation with a different culture is, take for instance we Nigerians colonised by the Britain have adopted the western culture and this doesn't lay to the dust our cultural heritage,

Truly this is a cultural mullato, it actually represents something special but I won't try this mixture because it will show odd unless I am wearing it for a drama presentation or maybe skit making but it obvious my handle on most Web are dormant for now because of blogging on Steemit but at least, I got a window now so everything will be quite easy than ever, the speed, opening of multiple tabs and windows and all of that.

The craftsman is a very intelligent fellow and I appreciate him for this excellent work done, in offices we put on our suits that if the environment is conducive that is there is an air conditioner or if not we put on something lighter or may be without a tie, in traditional marriage we go native, senator dressing, and the tiring of traditional wrappers, with a walking stick serving as the third leg with a unique color combination. The western culture has infiltrate so much in us, that in even in villages we rarely tie wrapper, our grandfather or with trouser to climb the palm fruits tree or tap palm wine, it wasn't so before.

I stand to appreciate should we promote cultures by organise end of the year event on first or second terms here to bring to reminiscence the obviously looked down or should I say forgotten culture, bring to light it's importance, here we see children learnt to say proverbs with their local dialect.

For the last two images, the mother with the shield is protecting her child during the war, I think that should be in the world war.

The one that draws my attention the most is the last image, I know it is not easy to raise a child, the agony of this money is the run for safety knowing that this twins will be killed, twins were killed those days and mother hearts skipped when they deliver twins, this woman managed to hid this kids till they were grown up I think and as it is always said nothing is hidden under the sun, I feel she get discovered by and she decides to run for safety, thanks God for Mary slessor who came with the explanation of how twins came about and pursuit the movement to stop the killing of twins. Thanks for inviting me, Merry Christmas to you my friend....
