Hello! Nairalanders, I'm not a Blogger neither a good writer but i hope if i continue to construct it together like this i will be a good Writer one day like Toyebacanista, Tosyntumuch and Co at my @OnlineAproko FB page.

our Ancestors Worship them before the Foreigners Religion enter the Africa continent but i don't know who mislead the Yoruba's that Esu Lalu is the Satan that was mention in the Bible/Quran but when we have been born in Religion home then we must embraced our Parent Religions Proudly Muslim but Africa Culture first the White should stop nonsense .
Infact i concur with the Esu Lalu because When you beg and offer him a Sacrifice , he will listen to you and confuse your oppressor, than the Man of God who made an Inciteful statement and Extorted Money from the Street hawkers to Build First Class University and buy Private Jet
Laishey President.



Proudly Africa
Proudly Nigeria
Proudly Yoruba

Esu is not Satan of the Bible/Quran in any way. He was a human being deitified to orisa. His name was Esu Laalu (Laalu is actually Ola Ilu meaning someone who enjoys patronage of the community). Again, he is referred to as Ogiri Oko (Again, he was the defendant of Oko quarters...Oko is found in Osun and Kwara States today)

Can you please quote the particular Odu and Ese Ifa that verifies these things? Especially that Esu was once human. How can a quarter of a town be found in two different states?
