š¢ Arguing a known fact is an arrant nonsense because everything cannot be politicized in Nigeria -Reply
A former senator of the federal republic of Nigeria, Shehu Sani has turned the political and geograpf the Earth is actually Spherical and it rotates around the Sun, then there is no permanent West and East. Calling some parts of the World Western or Eastern is only possible if the Earth is flat.
Meanwhile, it is a known fact that the terms āWestā and āEastā are not solely defined by the flatness or roundness of the Earth as experts reveled.
āThey are relative directions based on the planetās rotation and its orientation to the Sun. āWesternā and āEasternā refer to cultural, geopolitical, and historical divisions, which are independent of the Earthās shape.
So, even on a spherical Earth, we still use these terms to describe different regions, so kicking against a known fact as established is arrant madness because everything must not be politicized.
