Gabonese Folktale: The Bojabi Tree And The Magic Word

When hunger swept through the jungle, it wasn’t the fastest or the loudest who saved the day — it was the tortoise. In this Gabonese folktale, we follow a quiet hero on a journey for a word that could unlock a forest’s last hope.

I hope you enjoy this piece of our history. Sit back and Relax, let me take you back to Africa.
