Its becoming more and more real that African traditions and cultures are slowly being replaced with western ones which are not bad but at what cost.  Are you proud of your culture and what are you doing to preserve it.  The article below best explains the reasons for this

I think i have heard African traditions being gradually replace many times, but are we really doing about it?
Could Boko Haram in Nigeria the solution?

The article you pointed above is an Interesting here is the correct url http://shikenan.com/blog/traditions-in-africa/. The Traditional culture there I think is Is Igbo in South East Nigeria.

My observation shows that what happens is many Africa Traditions they are being renamed to have a global out look.
Eg Egwe owa in South east Nigeria is thesame as Gala Night.

So Travelman  African's tradition isn't dying as you insinuated but being renamed and remodeled.
