Civilization from Western agents should not be allowed to destroy good aspects of African cultures.
African cultures are overwhelmed by erosive Western cultural influences which have left mostly the present generation at cross roads.
I'm not advocating for disengagement of Western cultural values but for a good understanding of our cultural values so we can survive the modern cultural puzzle of the contemporary time.
Igbo adage has it that "He who does not know where the rain caught up with him will not know when it recedes"
There many aspects of our culture the West needs to borrow a leaf from but until we identify with our rich cultural values no one will see any good thing in our way of life.
