Lol. I know you're gassed with the Yoruba day declaration. If you know NY, you would know that you don't a lousy ceremonial day for a lot of them to align with Yoruba, hence it has always been the Mecca of black consciousness in America lol.

A lot of conscious black New Yorkers already align with Yoruba and they worship Yoruba gods and have Yoruba names. There's a massive Afrocentric community in New York and poor righteous teachers who know more about Yoruba history than you'll ever know and they already align with it. So his visit isn't going to add anything to that.

The ever progressive Oba, you are carried! Times have changed, no more sitting in a beautiful, big palace, forming 'oba'. Other trado leaders need to emulate this man. Go around, bring investments for ur people, stop waiting for government intervention always, change the paradigm with ur position of authority for goodness sake! God bless Nigeria.

Lol. Each to their own but not everything is worth celebrating. The man stays acting like an owanbe King, when he's actually the custodian of the gods and tradition as the Ooni of Ife.

Who travels to project culture by visiting UN, and other inconsequential political nonsense? Oyo which is even more political doesn't get involved in what this one gets involved and when he visited the Americas, he went to Bahia where there's a huge Yoruba diaspora and Oyotunji in the US, which is actually a Yoruba village. He didn't turn to Jaffe Joffer like this guy lol.

He has to be the most lousy King in history. I won't be surprised if I were to see him visit Jay Z in his office and throw up the Roc sign lol.

Na we ooo.. My yeeboo brothers won't like this. .

and why won't we like it? Why do you like creating irrelevant rivalry btw Igbos and Yorubas, it is very unnecessary. I'm igbo and this news gladdens my heart, that our culture is being exported and celebrated, it doesn't matter if it's igbo culture or not, it's African culture, it's Nigerian culture and I am African and Nigerian, we are all connected, so pls stop the unnecessary rivalry.

Yoruba loves their culture, because they have origin. The Ipob thugs don't have. They have no history or origin. They basically don't know where they came from, that is why they always claim to be Jews, because they don't know who they are, they just trying to identify with another race, lol, no wonder they don't respect their elders. Even their kings are government appointed, instead if hereditary, go to every street in their red mud republic, that is why they have to respect
This comment is very unnecessary and idio.tic. FYI, you can celebrate your achievements without bringing others down. I know you are not aware of this so I'm letting you know.

why are you brewing a fight where there is none? it's yorubas like you that are fueling hate on this thread. Like you rightly said, Igbos are not on this thread, but look through it and you would see your fellow yorubas calling us out. This thread is about how yoruba culture is spreading which is a good thing, can't you just celebrate it in peace

Well, this is kind of a very sensitive issue in Nigeria and we shouldn't joke with it.
Re: Obama To Honour Ooni Ogunwusi As NYC Declares Yoruba Day by uzolexis(f): 11:23am On Jun 11, 2016
This thread is full of tribalistic yorubas who think that an acheivement for them must necessarily be a failure for someone else. So far, I have hardly seen any other tribe bashing them instead the reverse is the case.
This is a good thing for yorubas and Nigeria as well, that our culture is being exported and appreciated, celebrate it in peace and stop stirring up unnecessary rivalry.
