Long before children heard Mother Goose rhymes or “Jack and the Beanstalk,” stories were told in Africa about wise lions, wily snakes and how the world began. Storytellers passed along these tales orally, embodying ideas about ethics, human nature and the cultures from which they came.
Unlike collections of European fairy tales, myths and legends, which are familiar worldwide, compilations of African folk tales have only recently received mainstream attention outside Africa.
Why mosquitoes buzz in people’s ears
If you live in the rain forest climates of West Africa, you will be very familiar with the buzz of the mosquito in your ears on hot humid evenings. Even if there’s only one mosquito and only one person in an area as large as a football field, the mosquito always seems to find that person’s ear and buzz in it. If you’ve slapped yourself in the face because of a mosquito, you know what I’m talking about. Here’s the story that explains the mosquito’s attraction to the ear.
A very long time ago when Ear was a beautiful woman and ready for marriage, there were several suitors wooing her. There were big creatures, there were small creatures. There were fast and sleek creatures and there were slow ones. But they all professed their love for Ear and demonstrated their skills – and there was such an impressive array of skills that Ear had a difficult time making a decision. Then along came mosquito.
“I would like you to be my wife”, proposed Mosquito.
Ear was so offended by this affront. “Look around you!” she cried. “Of all the people and creatures in the whole world, what makes you think I can entertain such a thought?” Ear was distressed. “Marry you?!!” she continued. “You will be dead before the week is over. You’re not strong, you’re weak and I will never marry you!”
Ear was exhausted from this tirade and she fell into her seat, fanning herself vigorously like she was trying to get any image of Mosquito out of her head. Meanwhile, Mosquito was really hurt by all that Ear said. It was very embarrassing to be talked to like that in front of all the other creatures who were whispering to each other and giggling. Apparently, they all agreed with Ear. “Dead before the week is over,” thought Mosquito as he slunk away. “We’ll see about that.”
And from that day forward, whenever Mosquito sees Ear, he flies up to her and says “Emi re, mi o ti ku”, which in English means “Here I am, I am not dead.”
But who did Mosquito eventually marry? And how did she get attached to either side of Head? That’s another story I would like to hear.

Baobab Composition and Nutritional Value
Several authors have published about baobab food products. Data on macronutrients, micronutrients, amino acids, and fatty acids were collected from literature for pulp, leaves, seeds, and kernels of the baobab tree.
The results show that baobab pulp is particularly rich in vitamin C; consumption of 40 g covers 84 to more than 100% of the Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) of pregnant women (19-30 years).
The leaves are particularly rich in calcium (307 to 2640 mg/100 g dw), and they are known to contain good quality proteins with a chemical score of 0.81.
The whole seeds and the kernels have a relatively high lipid content, 11.6 to 33.3 g/100 g dw and 18.9 to 34.7 g/100 g dw, respectively.
The pulp and leaves exhibit antioxidant properties with a higher activity in the pulp than in the leaves.
Reported nutrient contents of different baobab parts show a large variation, which may have arisen from various factors.
West African Proverbs
A talkative bird will not build a nest.
By crawling, a child learns to stand.
Earth is but a marketplace; heaven is home.
Everybody loves a fool, but nobody wants him for a son.
The teeth that laugh are also those that bite.
When the music changes, so does the dance.
Silence is also speech.
A lobster loves water, but not when he’s being cooked in it.
A rotten fish pollutes the whole kitchen.
If the dog is not at home, he barks not.
A child who is to be successful is not reared exclusively on a bed of down.
A knife does not know who is its master.
A woman is like a blanket: If you cover yourself with it, it bothers you; if you throw it aside you will feel the cold.
He who is guilty has much to say.
If there were no elephant in the jungle, the buffalo would be a great animal.
If things are getting easier, maybe you’re headed downhill.
It is the wife who knows her husband
Marriage is like a groundnut: you have to crack them to see what is inside.

Gambia And West African Folktales
Sun and Moon are married and have children together. Sun takes his children out with him during the day. This makes moon very worried because it is far too hot for the children to be out during the day.
So Moon takes it upon herself to fix this. She makes her children only come out at night with her. Of course her husband Sun is very angry by this so he chases her across the sky. He has caught her a few times thus, this is when eclipses occur.
