REWRITE

[edit]

This is an interesting article. A BBC news story prompted me to look it up: The Nigerian teens clueless on computers but aiming to reboot https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-67832831

It’s the sort of globalization that Wikipedia needs. But the article might be at risk of deletion unless some citations are added. The above story is a start.

I have done some rewriting but cautiously. I don’t want to interfere with cultural matters or Nigerian English so I have limited my editing to portions I believe I understand. There are a couple of flags for more explanation. Two areas require local knowledge: - What is the Ijele Masquerade? What is meant by ‘the king of Igbo masquerades’? A photograph of it would be a good addition to the article. - The word “transition” is used a few times. I suspect this means death, but changing it might be treading on a cultural issue. - a map of the area would be useful -is the council of elders called the Ndinka, or is it called the Amokwe-uwani? I apologize if this would be obvious to someone with even a little knowledge of the community. -The sentence beginning “Uboji is the first son of Ngwo…” confuses me. It needs a rewrite by someone who knows the subject.

Map needed

[edit]

Creating a map would require someone with the Wikipedia skills and also geographic knowledge.

I’m not the author of this article. It needs a map but I lack the skills to create one. I suspect Ngwo is the community about 3 km west of Enugu, based on the statement of it being across three administrative areas. However, it only came up as a suburb in a map search. There are maps in the articles Enugu and Enugu State as a starting point.
