4. Kashimawo, The Untouchable
Reincarnation or the philosophy of being reborn is celebrated in many cultures. In Nigeria, a child born after consecutive infant deaths and births in the same family is deemed an 'Abiku' or 'Ogbanje'. In Yoruba culture, the name Kashimawo means "Let us wait and see” and the person is considered untouchable. Taslimat Kashimawo Adeniji-Adele shares her personal story of what it has been like growing up an Abiku.
