Is There Any Yoruba Organization In Usa? by Nobody: 3:10am On Jun 27, 2010
Why arent there any Yoruba organization in America?

There should be some kinda annual meeting that brings our Nation together, that encourages our Youth  to learn more about their culture. Some kinda pride. etc etc



If anybody has any info, lemme know. . . .


[The only organization I'm aware of is the Ekiti Parapo meeting they have each year in Atlanta[I think] ]

No but there are countless Igbo organizations like Umu Igbo Unite. Or World Igbo Congress. We would be happy to have a Yoruba friend.

Thatz why I made this thread. It would be SAD and DISAPPOINTING if we have no Yoruba Organization. O ma se

I will be in Houston around the time, but I don' know if I will be there though. Most likely, but I am not sure.

I remember hearing about the speech. My father told me about it.

You want Ezeuche to kill somebody?. Ezeuche will not hesitate to assassinate any man who goes near Flagators.
Re: Is There Any Yoruba Organization In Usa? by Nobody: 1:37pm On Jun 28, 2010
These organizations are so not necessary unless it's sole purpose is to teach the Yoruba kids the philosophies of ancient Yorubas. anything away from that becomes political and you the Yorubas just joining the organization for partying reasons (True talk). All they do is party together no visions. This guy's son just graduated from Harvard yaayy!!!!! we are going to his house to celebrate yay!!! I just got that nursing job yay!!!! we should celebrate!! My husband is now the chief doctor in the hospital yay!!! we are celebrating this weekend!!!! My husband just got his permanent residence yay!!! we are celebrating it!!!. My wife just got refugee status yay!!! we are celebrating. My husband just got a cab job yay!!!!! we are drinking to it.


It's same shi-t on a different day in different place. If I go to Vancouver to visit my mum, same thing happens. Or when in NYC, it's same ol crap. I don't relate with Nigerians that much at all. I'll rather organize with people that shares a common global vision. These Yoruba organizations here are wak as fuc and I'm surprised the average age there is 39. Wackos!! Don't join any tribal or racial organizations, they are ridiculous,
Re: Is There Any Yoruba Organization In Usa? by udezue(m): 2:10pm On Jun 28, 2010
9jaganja,
Maybe its just the Yoruba ones or just the older folks but a lot of the younger groups like UIU, Umu Igbo Alliance, NIYA, YICAN and the group we started in Houston Igbo Development Group (IDG) are serious about preserving our culture and also helping our people back home by organizing projects. We already have 1 this year and we are raising lots of $$ for it. Check our new site time to time for updates. Igbodevgroup.org
