#DailyAfricanProverbs takes us to #Ghana
The Proverb says: “The rain wets the leopard's spots but does not wash them."
Today's proverb from Ghana serves as a reminder that we cannot escape who we are, no matter the circumstances. Just like the spots on a leopard, our personalities and traits run deep - they may be temporarily altered by external factors, but they will always resurface in time.

#DailyAfricanProverbs takes us to #Togo
The Proverb says: “Better the child weeps than the wife."
Sometimes the best thing to do is to let go of the things that hold you back. And buying a boat that is under water could be the thing that is holding you back. Because you'll have to invest time and energy in repairs, when you can buy a brand new one and use it immediately.

#DailyAfricanProverbs takes us to #Comoros
The Proverb says: “A whistle will not call back a dog that has escaped from the leash.
As any dog owner knows, keeping a pet safe and under control can be a challenge. Dogs have a tendency to wander off, and even the best-trained animal can sometimes slip out of its leash. If a dog does manage to escape, it can be difficult or impossible to get it back. Our proverb from Comoros warns against trying to use a whistle to call back a runaway dog. The whistle will not work if the dog is already out of range, and it may even make the situation worse by causing the dog to run away in fear.
Sometimes the best thing to do is to let go of the things that hold you back.

#DailyAfricanProverbs takes us to #Sudan
The Proverb says: “If Nakedness promises you a piece of cloth, ask him his name."
Nakedness is often viewed as a enemy of modesty, but in many cultures it is seen as natural and beautiful. In some cultures, people go about their daily lives completely naked, without any shame or embarrassment. In others, nakedness is only reserved for special occasions, such as religious ceremonies or coming-of-age rituals. Whether you view nakedness as positive or negative, there's one thing that's certain - if a stranger offers you a piece of cloth, it's best to ask for his name first!

#DailyAfricanProverbs takes us to #Cameroon
The Proverb says: “Lying can get you a wife, but it won't keep her.”
If you're looking for a wife, it's important to put your best foot forward. After all, first impressions are everything. So if you want to make a good impression, you might be tempted to tell a few white lies. But as the Cameroon proverb says, "Lying can get you a wife, but it won't keep her." In other words, while you might be able to deceive someone into marrying you, it's only a matter of time before your spouse discovers the truth. And when they do, they're likely to feel betrayed and disappointed.
