lexiconkabir: Is oriki like words for praising or is it just a name? |
Re: Proudly Yorùbá. Let's Get To Know Your Beautiful Oriki by Nobody: 1:43pm On Oct 11, 2016 |
Contact17: What I know is, oriki is like a poem used for praising, so in the oriki, a specific name is mentioned for example "akanmu-okin", I think that's what SaffronSpice meant by "oruko oriki" 2 Likes |
