There is an imaginary plane through the Earth that splits the world into "north" and "south". The circle around the Earth where that plane meets the Earth's surface is called the "equator".
In astronomy, we extend that plane into space; this is the "celestial equator". With geography on the Earth, we measure this in latitude north or south of the equator. In astronomy, we call it "declination", but it's the same idea.

What splits africa in two parts?
The geographical feature that splits Africa into two parts is the East African Rift, a tectonic plate boundary where the African Plate is being split into two separate plates— the Somali Plate and the Nubian Plate.

What are the celestial poles?
The north and south celestial poles are the two imaginary points in the sky where the Earth's axis of rotation, indefinitely extended, intersects the imaginary rotating sphere of stars called the celestial sphere. The north and south celestial poles appear permanently directly overhead to an observer at the Earth's North pole and South pole respectively. As the Earth spins on its axis, the two celestial poles remain fixed in the sky, and all other points appear to rotate around them, completing one circuit per day.

This is sort of like asking if Cairo is north, south, east or west of you. We don't know where you are, so we can't answer. Sagittarius is near the celestial equator, so if you're north of, say, the tropic of Cancer, it's probably south of you; if you're south of the tropic of Capricorn, it's probably north of you; if you're between the two, it's most likely east, west, or straight up depending on what time it is.
