Latvian Tourist and Anago Osho, claim to be Slaves in their former lives

The world and it's mysteries proves that the world is full of wonders. Planet Earth is surrounded by secrets and unanswered questions but the seeker of truth may avail in his search. The question at hand is the issue of rebirth. The possibilities of people to be reborn is questioned by many today, but nearly all Ancient Customs and Cultures of the world support the believe in reincarnation. Mrs Ginta was born in Latvia, in the Baltic region of Europe. She now reside in Ireland with her Nigerian husband. She is so convinced that she is a reincarnation of her former soul. She has an unexplainable feeling when she think of Africa. She said that her former life experience began in Africa, before she was captured and sold into slavery.

Creator of life, Come and heal the land Come and heal the people Let us forgive each other inlove I seek forgiveness and i forgive all the people that were involved in the Slave trade This is my prayer, Prayer of a Slave born in 1753, stolen to Havana - Cuba ANAGO JAMES AKEEM OSHO

THE REPERCUSSION OF THE NEW AND RIGID STRATUM IN AFRICA By James Akeem Osho Anago

The dividing up of the society in Africa was not static. It was nonrigid. It was flexible. Social stratum is a person’s class in a society. People belong to different social strata or social stratum, and this could depend on the family that a person was born into or the type of occupation one is involved in e.t.c. but it could change for the better or worse. In Africa, before colonization, the kings’ position was undisputed at the top of the social stratum. The kings were at the top of the political hierarchy and slaves were placed at the bottom. Though, slaves were able to climb up the ladder to greatness.  Ancient Africa provided a level playing field for everyone to achieve greatness. A poor family could move up the ladder of society and a wealthy family could do better and sustain their wealth or push downward to poverty. Hard work and determination to succeed is one of the characteristics of Africa. This is evidence in the folklore of Africa and narratives of enslaved Africa
