Hmm,

There are reasons to be grateful to God for the continual existence of the Yoruba race. The kemet built the pyramids of Giza, and the Jews used to be a people, the Greeks of Athens were a great and formidable race.

The Aryans and the Romans were a power to behold and so was the Ottoman empire a terror of the west once upon a time. The Babylon was a great people, the Persians and Medes were unforgettable.

The Mongols and the Huns too. But where were they all, today? Although the Greeks were not able to conquer Sparta, but the Greek way did.

Yoruba is from the letter Y. The founders of Yoruba had worried if it will survive, and yes we did. So, the end will favor us till the end. Hence we have an anthem in tradition.

"Ewole Ayo, ewomo."

A kii b'ale Ayo laikun. A to Y, we're from the beginning and we made it to the end, though small and on the brinks, yet we shall reign and rock the world. What is the common denominator in the old and new names?

"Yo" is Yoruba for the glory of light, the Halo. And as children of irumole, we're habingers of light to every darkness that might cast upon the earth. Our fathers were Irumole, hence we're kindred of light.

By power shall no man prevail.

So it's none of your business to have quoted me in the first instance. Let the Fulani deal with their deal.

Yoruba land is an Islamic land.

Give us Sharia, not Paganism.
