All these fake imported religion have destroyed the normal mental processes of a lot of our people.

Know for fact that:

There is no heaven, there is no hell, there is no God (or god), there is no Allah, there are no angels, there are no demons, there are no spirits, there is no life after death, juju don't work, there is no eternal judgment, there is no karma, there was no historical Jesus. All those are figment of human imaginations and tools use by a very few some to control the very many others. The earlier you understand and accept these facts as facts, the happier and merrier your life and existence will be.

The religion you're currently claiming is the religion of your parents, if you were born into a different family of another religion (say Hinduism), that is the exact religion you will practice.

You were born without a religion in you, your factory reset has no religion in it. If you were to be a phone and they do factory reset on you today being a phone, there will not be anything found related to religion in your settings, files and file systems anymore; you learn religion only after your birth growing up.


Islam is idolatry and paganism, Christianity aswell is idolatry - All the world religion is idolatry, including all the Abrahamic religion. Holy communion is idolatory, bowing for a stone call Kaaba of the Bedouin tribes is also idolatory. licking of stone at mecca is idolatory, throwing of stone at pilgrimage is idolatory too.

Infact, Illah is what the Arabic call God and not Allah (the moon god). Allah was one of the diety been worshiped before the invention of Islam. That is why muslims will say something like "la ilah ila huwa" meaning Allah is one Illah (God). Have you ask yourself why Prophet Mohammed's father who was an idol worshiper and who lived before the invention of islam has Allah in is name Abdullai== Abdu Allah? It is because Allah has been an idol worshiped by paganists before the Prophet received his revelations.

All Abrahamic religion are idolatory, they only package them well and condemn your heritage as evil, whereas, Nigeria was better in terms of morality, honesty and integrity before they brought the foreign religions.

In peace loving, emotional intelligence, love for neighbor, respect for sanctity of life, we are even better than those who brought those religion with primitive leaders whose morality and characters are highly questionable.

To the Nigerian Police and all necessary stakeholders,

While individuals and groups have the right to express their beliefs, the content and tone of this banner are provocative and directly challenge the core tenets of the Christian faith. Given the sensitive religious diversity in our society, such a statement has the potential to incite public uproar, disturb communal peace, and cause avoidable tensions between religious groups.

Reasons for Concern:

1. Religious Sensitivity: The message is confrontational and could be seen as an attack on Christian beliefs.

2. Potential for Conflict: Public displays of such messages may provoke strong reactions, leading to unnecessary public disorder or confrontations.

3. Violation of Neutral Spaces: Public spaces should remain neutral and inclusive, fostering respect for all religious beliefs.

In light of the above, I respectfully request the following:

1. The immediate removal of the banner to prevent any form of public disturbance.

2. Appropriate measures to ensure similar provocative displays are not erected in the future.

Ensuring peace, harmony, and respect among citizens of different religious affiliations is of utmost importance. I trust that you will take swift action to address this issue and safeguard the public order.

But they said the terrorists were been sponsored by the FG. Why the amnesty?

Thank you for sharing your concern. Mental health is a serious matter, and I hope he receives the necessary support and care he need. I'll be mindful and proceed accordingly.

Omoawoke:
The person you are having a conversation with has a case of mental problem. (This is me being serious here, not an insult)
I hope he gets the necessary medical attention he needs.
He’s not that okay, just ignore him

Still on.

Whether repentant or not, the man should be arrested (with enough evidence should be gathered against him,) and be made to face the consequence of his deeds through judicial action.

I know you are pained. You just have to face the fact of life as it is.

I sense a political stunt

Its possible that Tinubu' govt must have orchestrated this display to get an excuse to abandon the project.

Bring the project to Ibadan, there is enough land and security for the people.


Later we will start hearing marginalization.

There is need to modify this parasitic setup.

Each region should be ready and held responsible for their socioeconomical progression.

Yoruba ni mi unapologetically.

The preservation of Yoruba culture and heritage, despite significant historical disruptions like the Atlantic slave trade, is truly remarkable. Here are some key factors that contributed to this:

1. Strong Oral Traditions

- The Yoruba people have a rich tradition of storytelling (itan siso), proverbs (owe), folktales (aroba), and praise poetry (oriki) passed down through generations. This oral culture ensured that history, values, and spiritual beliefs were preserved even when written records were absent.

- Yoruba griots, or oral historians, played a significant role in maintaining cultural continuity.


2. Resilient Spiritual Practices

- The Yoruba religion, Ifá, and its pantheon of deities (Orisha) were deeply ingrained in the people’s way of life. Even when enslaved Africans were taken to the Americas, they adapted their beliefs by syncretizing Yoruba deities with Catholic saints (e.g., Shango with Saint Barbara) while keeping their core practices alive.

- This syncretism led to religions like Santería in Cuba, Candomblé in Brazil, and Vodun in Haiti, which preserved Yoruba cosmology and rituals.


3. Communal and Clan Systems

- Yoruba culture places a high value on family and community. These networks often acted as support systems that preserved traditions, even in diaspora settings.

- Enslaved Yoruba people in the Americas formed communities where they practiced their customs, spoke their language, and maintained rituals.


4. Linguistic Continuity

- The Yoruba language, with its tonal and rhythmic qualities, was another vehicle for cultural preservation. In the Americas, derivatives of Yoruba (e.g., Lucumí in Cuba) are still used in religious chants and practices.


5. Cultural Adaptability

- The Yoruba demonstrated an ability to adapt to new environments without losing their identity. For example, they incorporated elements of local cultures in the Americas into their own, creating vibrant Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Brazilian cultures.


6. Migration and Trade Networks

- The Yoruba people were historically involved in extensive trade networks, which facilitated the spread of their culture across West Africa and beyond. This interaction reinforced their cultural identity and influence on neighboring tribes, such as the Ewe and Ga.


7. Colonial Influence and Documentation

- During the colonial period, Yoruba culture was studied and documented by scholars, missionaries, and anthropologists. While this was often done for exploitative reasons, it inadvertently preserved aspects of the culture for future generations.


8. Modern Efforts and Global Diaspora

- Today, Yoruba culture continues to thrive through music, art, literature, and festivals. Nollywood, Afrobeat, and Yoruba traditional attire have become global symbols of the culture.

- The global Yoruba diaspora actively works to keep traditions alive through cultural organizations, language classes, and religious communities.


On the Ewe and Ga Connection

The Ewe and Ga people of Ghana have historical and migratory connections with the Yoruba, stemming from ancient interactions and migrations. While there’s some overlap in traditions and beliefs, these groups have also developed distinct identities over time.

Ogakokorokoman:
Uncleayo, i am curious to know how was yoruba able to preserve their culture from the pre to post Atlantic slave trade.
Even the yorubas in cuba, brazil etc are still very much into the culture and tradition, yoruba Is very big in south america and west africa.
I also learnt from my Ghanaian friend who is an ewe that ewe and ga people in Ghana are descendants of yoruba.

Can you tell me how the yorubas were able to preserve the culture and heritage till today, i and other tribes may learn one or two.
