About asabagna
I go by the name of Asabagna Alatentou, "Asa" for short. I took this name as my African/Spiritual name when I went on a pilgrimage to West Africa in 1997. I visited Senegal, The Gambia and Ghana. "Asabagna" means "hunter" and I received that name during a naming ceremony when I visited a village in northern Ghana. "Alatentou" is Mandingo for "God is gracious" and I received that name from a village Griot in Senegal. I was born in England and my parents are of Jamaican heritage. I spent most of my formative years in Jamaica, but grew up primarily in Toronto Canada. I currently live in Ottawa, the national capital of Canada. I am professionally employed, married, 2 wonderful kids and regularly attend a Pentecostal church. I am a born-again Christian. I do not consider myself conservative or liberal, right-wing or left-wing, centrist etc., or any of the multiple categories that society likes to confine and define people by. However, I do have strong views, beliefs and opinions but I also consider myself open to listening and contemplating other viewpoints. I am a firm believer that "if you don't believe in something, you will fall for anything".

It is surprising and comical how Beyonce is the one who has contributed in introducing prominent African writer and feminist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, to many a few.
One thing though, It would be hopeful and interesting , if Beyonce and her “secuaces” would just read a book or two and try to understand what Ms. Adichie is really saying.
Certainly, I believe they could learn a thing or two from Ms. Adichie’s intellectual analysis and depth.
And especially, analyzing what Ms. Adichie meant by: “Bottom power is not power at all.”
