Please, it rationally matters to office of reason to objectively let people know their past and ancestors,for the knowledge of your origin saves you from being a wanderer and gives you existential identity."A wanderer gathers no civilization", say Venatius Amukamara of Isunjaba. God in His perfect Wisdom Knows and recognizes this eternal fact, if not, He would had sent Jesus the Saviour from the air, and then He (Jesus) will come without existential identity as a Jew. We cannot because of the actions of a evil spirits divorce mankind from his umbilical cord of origin and culture, otherwise, he lives without cultural legitimacy. The following will give you lively illustration:

We must be sufficiently intelligent to understand the very fact that, as individuals, we are off-shoots of thought and culture, and that any individual, who says, for example, that Igbo/African thought and culture are in themselves superstitious, irrational and illogical must clearly understand that his life is not worth living because, been an off-shoot of Igbo/African thought and culture, he is himself an off-shoot of superstition, irrationality and illogicality.

In those days your father was a youth of marriageable age and at that age he started nursing the thought of marrying to beget children, this very thought was a thought within the context of culture, for though marriage is a natural institution, it is legitimated by a cultural process. Now he saw your mother, who was then a single. He negotiated marriage love with her and she responded positively. Now to take her as his wife and beget children by her within the circle of cultural legitimacy, your father paid the cultural values, for example, four jars of palm wine, some number of cola nuts, some amount of money, etc. When these cultural values were paid you were not there, but they were directly paid for you; so that you might be born within the legitimacy of the given culture, otherwise, you would be born within the cultural taboo of a bastard. Thanks you have now, by this analysis, sufficiently recognized you are off-shoot of thought and culture; born into a culture, grew up in a culture and bears a cultural identity, which is your existential identity and legitimacy.

You have now sufficiently understood that, if man is divorced and disconnected from his existential connectivity he loses existential identity, legitimacy and becomes a wanderer, that is, one without identity of origin, origin in reference to his history, which naturally covers culture and tradition of man.

You now see that man is endowed with two inseparable existential values of Culture and Religion, as he is made up of body (Culture) and Religion (Soul), the two necessarily constituting the harmony of being at the rational point where virtue stands.
