Princess Yennenga: The Warrior Queen Mother of the Mossi People
A legendary figure from the oral traditions of the Mossi people—Princess Yennenga. Though she is later revered as the Queen Mother of the Mossi, her story begins as a princess born into a royal lineage. Her father was said to be a powerful king in what is now northern Ghana.
Princess Yennenga was celebrated not only for her beauty but also for her exceptional skills as a horse rider, archer, and warrior. She mastered the bow and spear and was considered one of the finest warriors in the kingdom. Her combat prowess made her invaluable to her father, who relied on her military leadership. However, her desire to marry and start a family created tension between them. Her father, unwilling to lose such a remarkable warrior, forbade her from marrying.
According to legend, Yennenga devised a powerful metaphor to express her frustration. She cultivated a lush field of wheat that greatly impressed her father. But over time, she allowed it to rot. When her father asked why she had done such a thing, she replied:
“You call me precious, yet you let me wither like this wheat in the field.”
Have you guys heard of her before online African history content?

Hey guys Im working with new sponsors right now who are creating NFT’s relating to African historical figures. As some of you may know illustrations on African figures are limited and so this can be a way to not only encourage our artist to depict more African history but popularize it in general. The digital space creates an opportunity for us to promote our history.
NFTs(non-fungible tokens) are digital assets and images that are bought, sold, or collected on a cryptocurrency platform. The “Only the Great Nation” NFTs are a total collection of 5,000 digital images of five(5) of the most popular Kings of Ancient Africa. Each carefully curated with 1,000 variations of the five(5) Kings.
Currently there are Pre-sales available at a discount before they go on the opensea platform.
You can check out the website here: www.onlythegreatnation.com
Pre-Sale is available here: nft.onlythegreatnation.com/presale

My Sponsors, OurBlackTruth.com has recently been under serious cyber attack from people who believe that they’re associated with Donald Trumps upcoming app called “Truth” . This case of mistaken identity has caused OurBlackTruth’s ratings to drop pretty bad. If you guys can show any support you can that would be appreciated, as this is one of the few social media apps that’s actually owned by people of African descent.
Here’s a message from the president of OurBlackTruth:
