A Nairalander Wants To Tour Brazil And Cuba by Pearlyakin(m): 6:26am On Aug 21, 2016
Good day my fellow nairalanders, i intend going to the republic of Brazil and Cuba.
I started a research in 2010,the reason behind this research is to know more about the Yoruba's that were transferred from southwest Nigeria to the new world to serve as indentured workers,during my course of this research i was able to discover many fascinating things about how the Yoruba culture survived in present day Cuba and Brazil respectively.
According to wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuba/, Most Afro-cubans are of Yoruba descent and they still maintain the culture,tradition and the heritage till today,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHRAPIwsS5I this link is a video on youtube about the duo from Cuba called "Ibeyi" singing about river in Yoruba language.
During my research,i was able to discover some spiritual practices in these two countries which are the "Lucumi" "Santeria" and the "Candomble" which are all of Yoruba origin,also i was able discover that there is website that cater for Afro-Brazilians to learn more about their ancestor's culture and tradition here in Nigeria http://nigeriabrazil.org/site/.
So my people,i will need your comments and suggestions about this project of mine thank you.

Nigerians are researchers when it comes to leaving the country. We hope your case should not be like other researchers in terms of drug and female trafficking.

I wish you well on journey.
