Other philosophical traditions, such as African philosophy, are rarely considered kwa foreign academia. Since emphasis is mainly placed on Western philosophy as a reference point, the study, preservation and dissemination of valuable, but lesser known, non-Western philosophical works face many obstacles. Key African philosophers include the Fulani Usman Dan Fodio, founder of the Sokoto Caliphate of Northern Nigeria and Umar Tall of Senegal; both were prolific Islamic scholars. In the post-colonial period, different picha of what could be argued as "African" Philosophy from the level of epistemology have risen. These could include the thoughts and enquiries of such individuals as Cheik Anta Diop, Francis Ohanyido, C.L. Momoh, and Chinweizu.
The philosophy of the modern and contemporary African world, including the diaspora, is often known as Africana Philosophy. Key philosophers include Frantz Fanon, Kwesi Wiredu, Paget Henry, Lewis Gordon, Mabogo Percy zaidi and many others.

THE LIFE CYCLE
I think the life cycle is all backwards.
wewe should start out dead and get it out of the way.
Then, wewe wake up in an old age nyumbani feeling better every day.
wewe get kicked out for being too healthy; go collect your pension, then when wewe start work, wewe get a dhahabu watch on your first day.
wewe work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement.
wewe drink alcohol, wewe party, you're generally promiscuous and wewe get ready for High School.
wewe go to primary school, wewe become a kid , wewe play, wewe have no responsibilities, wewe become a baby, and then...
wewe spend your last 9 months floating peacefully in luxury, in spa-like conditions; central heating, room service on tap, larger quarters every day, and then, wewe finish off as an orgasm.
I rest my case.

"The will of strength is of lesser value to man than the strengt of will."
"One loss can be many gained."
"Confusion and swali brings insight and intelligence."
"It takes a great deal of intelligence to reach the top. It takes an even greater deal of wisdom, however, to remain at the top."
"Fear can turn even the most gentle of men into the most barbaric of brutes."
"The very passion which serves as the great flame of courage, strength, and determination can also serve as a poison to the soul."
