The Ooni of Ife, His Royal Majesty, Oba Enitan Adeyeye was at the 41st Odunde Festival at the weekend.

ODUNDE was created in 1975 by Lois Fernandez and Ruth Arthur. The festival attracts UP TO 500,000 people annually and is the largest African American street festivals held in the country.

The festival, whose concept originates from the Yoruba people of Nigeria, West Africa, celebrates the coming of another year for African Americans and Africanized people around the world. It is an occasion highlighted by a colorful procession from 23rd and South Streets to the Schuylkill River where an offering of fruit and flowers is made to Osun, the Yoruba goddess of the river. ODUNDE is also known for its authentic African marketplace featuring vendors from around the world selling merchandise from many African nations, the Caribbean and Brazil.

This Oba is redefining kingship in Yorubaland. He even takes his 'ilari' guards with him to yankee. See palace guards wearing designer wrist watch.

Isn't the expression of Yoruba culture not just a Joy to watch and a pleasure to the senses?
I love Yoruba Culture, The best in the World!

One of the advantages of having a 21st century non partisan king, they even build bridges across borders. Yoruba Nation ti take over. Eni ti o ba si fi oju ana wo oku, se ni ebora a bo laso

Rubbish!
he should visit the Queen of England instead of these street carnivals like a street boy. Visiting common Obafemi Martins to beg for money to buy flight tickets.


I wonder when he will visit Linda Ikeji or Corssy Orjako to beg to suck breaast.
