OSUN-OSOGBO FESTIVAL
A CALL FOR AFRICAN CULTURE RE-AWAKENING

BY Celestine Olusegun Oni.

The myth of the believed seven days raining, the Goddess coming out of water (living -Spring) to bring blessing and abundance to the land. The UNESCO world recognised Festival is here again. ( Ore Yeye o.. ). Osun-Osogbo festival is one of the most recognized African festivals that attract over 1 million tourists across the globe. It is one of the major Nigeria cultural asset that attracts world attention. It is time to put on your white regalia and experience the rich culture of the Yoruba Heritage in the south western part of Nigeria. Truly the festival is an African Tourist Asset.




























Africa need to be awake on some vital contemporary issues. It is really a big taboo to neglect culture. The only man's identity is culture. It is a serious issue that invite international question on " How Africans can solve inferiority " we have various history and background which I believe it is things worth celebrated. Even if we can worship it. It doesn't mean we can not appreciate it. It is so painful that I had forgot to continue with my discussion on how we can be part of this coming Osun-Osogbo festival this summer in Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria.


Osun-Osogbo Shrine located in the heart of the capital city of Osun State, is one of the protected relics of the olden generation, that harbour the Goddess of Water, who always come out every once in a year to bless those who are looking for the fruit of the womb and also heals many infamity in the land. In blessed memory of " SUSAN WENGER" "Adunni Olorisa". A German female Tourist and Researcher who explore the shores of the African green ecology help to promote the shrine into an international standard. UNESCO endorsement inspire many other African heritage. And also brings this August festival into limelight.
