this is supposed to be drawing tourists and enriching the state but it doesn't look organised.if such is organized in kenya or rwanda the packaging will be out of the world.we have a long way to go.

This is a shame, I have been reading online and watching series of documentaries on yemoja whose original original is from Osun state,yemoja is the biggest goddess and we don't know what we have got...please take some time and find out more for yourself,google yemoja and read the wikipedia...The same festival Nigeria (yoruba) refuse to honour is being honoured all over the world,Portuguese calls her Yemanjá,Spanish calls her Yemayá,French calls her La Sirène and in Pigin mami water.

There is always a big festival everywhere around the world,it's all linked to the same yemoja but different names...Trust me make some research you will be shocked.I will keep this short.

Listen to this song by ibeyi titled river and oya,found the song some years ago...one funny thing I found out recently is Beyoncé deeply into the practice,she dresses like her,make photoshoot like her and almost when the ibeyi twin trended online she met with them,they are deep as well and they are from Cuba.

From the whole research I made,if you google the image of Mary mother of Jesus and you goggle yemoja study the image,the colours in the image,it's almost the same.THEY ARE DIFFERENT PEOPLE but somehow some people are trying to convert the yemoja to Mary mother of Jesus badly and they have been successful.if you goggle yemoja on the internet you can see it says its equals to Virgin Mary that is what wiki says but this is not true.I looked deep and I found images of yemoja in Catholic Churches all around Europe,Catholic Churches doing this same festivals being done in Nigeria all over Brazil,Portugal,France,Rome,Italy basically all over the world.

I saw list of things use doing some festivals that looks like osun festival with an image that looks like a mother or Mary by catholic in some European and South America and the list of items needed for the festivals are the same list of things yemoja cherished and the colours,you can research that and be shocked like me

Coming from someone without a verifiable history, an uncertain present and a bleak future. Isreali yesterday, Jew today, Judas tomorrow, Nigerian when it comes to sharing money.

Even your gods have relocated cos the suffering in ur region is too much. Idemili is selling cocaine in Pakistan, Amadioha is learning fan belt business at Ladipo.

Look at this flatheaded piglet. You're clowns because it's animals you clowns worship. Snakes, trees, vultures, bats and some trainee gods.

A drug dealer built a Church in your 'Christian community' and his father was slaughtered in that same church. Guess what the Church donor said? He said they should use traditional means to fish out the killers.

The joke is on you.

Lalasticlala for the past how many days I've been getting sick when I enter nairaland, I can't even explain it. Have you kidnapped NwaAmaikpe again? cos I can't find him anyway. What has the innocent, free sprited young man done to you that you'll take away our joy from nairaland? Please release NwaAmaikpe for us.

A head count should be conducted before and after the event, to avoid stories that touch.
