Bro Oko,

Thanks you very much for the information on Saraba.  I am studying how
narratives and stories impact on our cultures and worldviews.  I am
trying to see how storying our experiences help us evolve. It seems the
power of the story has been underestimated.  I am trying to link how
storytelling  affect our developmental efforts.  The myth of Saraba can be a
powerful story that might help open a new vista for me in this line.

Best regards,

Mboge  (I am a different Momodou Mboge who grew up at Latri Kunda German)

P.S You are a historical and cultural gem .  May the Almighty Bless you
