Culture / Osun Osogbo Festival: Marking 10 Years Of World Acceptance by dannydammy(m): 4:52pm On Sep 04, 2015 |
Last week was particularly busy for
tourists and people who cherish tradition and
culture of the people of Osogbo in particular as
different people from all walks of life were there for
the annual world acclaimed Osun Osogbo festival.
The festival which attracted very large crowd, as
the Osun Osogbo which has become one of the
UNESCO heritage sites climaxed on Friday 21st
August, for the grand finale of the week long
activities.
The grand finale of this year Osun Osogbo was
celebrated with funfare despite the economic
situation in the country and in the state particularly.
It was also a marked departure from last year’s
which was celebrated amidst outbreak of Ebola
virus in the country. To prevent the spread of the
virus, the government restricted the movement at
the Osun groves to only the worshippers.
Prior to that event, friends and families of Late
Susan Wenger celebrated her posthumous 100
years birthday as various peoples in attendance
showered praises and encomium on her.
Praises andencomium
The white Priestess of Osun River, Late Susanne
Wenger, popularly called Adunni Olorisa, was
described as a woman of culture and traditional
values because of her outstanding contribution
towards the development and promotion of Osun-
Osogbo’s Sacred Grove before its enlistment as a
World Heritage Site.
The Director General, National Commission for
Museums and Monuments, Yusuf Abdallah Usman,
affirmed this during the 100 years Posthumous
birthday of late Wenger and 10th year enlistment of
Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove as a United Nation
Economic, Scientific and Cultural Organisation,
UNESCO World Heritage site.
Represented by the UNESCO Director, Mr Funso
Oluremi, Usman described late Wenger as a woman
of different interpretations, saying; ‘’She was a great
artist, culturalist, spiritualist and philanthropist, who
devoted her life to serving nature, culture and
people.’’ Recalling that the Australia born late
Wenger died in 2009 at the age of 93, Usman said
her works in Osun-Osogbo Grove was the
beginning of the monumental growth and the
success achieved in the grove.
He stressed that the largeness of Wenger’s
personality and contributions to humanity will
continue to unfold over the years and to up-coming
generations, promising that the NCMM will continue
to protect and conserve her artistic works. In his
remarks, Ataoja of Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Oyetunji
Olanipekun, Larooye 11, said late Wenger would for
ever be remembered by Nigeria, especially Osogbo,
for her contribution to the development of custom
and tradition.
The royal father, who expressed dissatisfaction
about the way Yoruba culture is going into
extinction, urged the people of Osogbo to support
Osun festival and ensure that the grove becomes a
world heritage site like Medina in Saudi
Arabia. Present at the posthumous remembrance
are the children of late Adunni Olorisa, Sangodare
Ajala and Mrs Doyin Faniyi. Others are,
representatives of Australia, Robin and Hugh
Campbell, Chief Muraina Oyelami, among others.
Governor Rauf Aregbesola, who was represented by
the Secretary to the State Government, Moshood
Adeoti, said the state would do everything to
generate fund from the festival. The Ataoja of
Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Olanipekun, expressed gratitude
to sponsors of the festival, saying the it is now
recognised all over the world.
The down side: The festival’s down side was that
the usual rain that normally accompany the Osun
Osogbo Festival in Osun State refused to fall this
year giving room to speculations that something
may be amiss spiritually. It has been the tradition
that the rain, christened the king, must be quenched
by rain from the palace to the grove. However,
instead of rain, it was sun this year.
This development has been viewed differently.
Although, it had not rained much in the town in
recent times, the sun that accompanied this year’s
Osun Festival was surprising because it lasted till
almost 7 pm. 1 Like |
Politics / NUJ To Disrupt National Daily’s Celebration Over Workers’ Unpaid Salaries by dannydammy(m): 4:45pm On Sep 04, 2015 |
The Nigerian Union of Journalists (NUJ) has
threatened to disrupt the 20th anniversary
celebration of one of the National Newspapers, (Not
Vanguard) and (Name withheld) if the management
failed to pay the outstanding salaries of the
organisation’s journalists.
A statement by the National President of NUJ,
Waheed Odusile, on Friday in Lagos said that the
publisher of the Newspaper had been notified.
It said that if the management failed to effect the
payment by 2 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 4, the union
would disrupt the organisation’s 20th anniversary
celebration.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the
anniversary celebration is scheduled to hold on
Saturday, Sept. 5, at the Eko Hotels and Suites,
Victoria Island, Lagos.
The statement said that the letter sent to the
publisher on Wednesday, noted that the action
would take place with the full backing of the Nigeria
Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress.
It said it was particularly pained that the publisher
had reneged on his promise after assuring the NUJ
leadership of the payment.
“There is no going back on the disruption of the
company’s 20th anniversary celebration except the
flamboyant publisher pays his workers by 2 p.m. on
Friday,’’ it added. |
