The last line open my mind to something I suspect over a period of time. that yoruba language is spoken in some america movies, Bourne identity, Fat girls, lost, and many more could this be true or just a coincidence?

The man who spoke yoruba in bourne identity is a yoruba man, he was also the man that played Mr Eko in lost and heavy duty in GI JOE.
and for phat girls? hmmmm
