@YOLICOM6@UncleTisha Science is about empirical evidence that can be reproduced repeatedly by tested methods/formulae, faith/belief not required.
This is the same model Yorùbá system runs on.
But while Science is strictly material/physical, Yorùbá thoughts maintain that nature of reality is
Before they sold to us the idea of believing without comprehending, when you tell a yoruba man that you have a medicine to heal pile for instance, he will ask you: "so da ẹ lo ju? " Meaning 'Are you sure of this knowledge? ' if you say "yes" , he will then ask you to allow him put it to test. That was our way of life! In those day, there were no scammers! But today, after the whole religious brainwashing, even a babalawo or Onisegun will preach to you about having faith instead of telling you his level of confidence (l.o.c) of his medicine!!!
If you go to any babalawo and he ask you "ṣe onigbagbọ" Meaning, dó You believe? Please just run, he is a scammer!!! Yoruba system does not rest on belief but knowing!!! Leave belief for the religious faithfools!!! Ọ̀sanyìn will heal your ailment without your belief. Òrìṣà will speak through the ọpẹlẹ, ikin, eerindilogun, or obi without your personal belief. Nature is independent of you and therefore doesn't care about what you belief in but what is obtainable and realistic with the cosmic!

Ijala chant is a Yoruba oral poetry tradition performed by hunters. It contains detailed knowledge of animals, forests, herbs, hunting techniques encoded in verse. A Yoruba hunter is not just a man who catches animals. He is a walking encyclopaedia of the natural world.
I can actually answer this one from experience 😂😂
My mum used to be an Alága as a side hustle long before I was born, and she continued until 2010 when my dad passed away.
Throughout my secondary school years, I was her talking drummer at many of the ceremonies she anchored 😂. I was attending engagement ceremonies almost every weekend, I’ve probably been to more than 25 traditional weddings 😂😂
Alága Ìdúró represents the groom’s family; the side that comes to ask for the bride’s hand in marriage. Symbolically, they are the party “standing” to make a request.
Alága Ìjókòó represents the bride’s family; the side receiving the proposal and considering the request. Symbolically, they are the party “seated” in authority to accept or reject it.
So the “standing” and “sitting” are more about the traditional roles of the two families during the engagement process than whether the Alága is physically standing or sitting. 😄
If Tinubu’s reforms are truly working, how come the man on the street is not feeling the positive impact of the reforms? Where are the jobs?
At what point will the common man on the street begin to benefit from these reforms? 👇👇👇
AI doesn't read history books.
AI was trained on websites and social media.
This is why Yoruba culture and history which is well-documented is suffering so much digital attack in recent times, because people don't read anymore, they just ask AI.
Yoruba histories aren’t as digitised or SEO-optimised today, a lot of it is in books.
Yorùbá historians and researchers, please write and publish articles and books, talk about your work.
It is very important for the next generations.
When we correct misinformation on here they say we are doing too much. Some guy came on tiktok recently to say Igbos are indigenous to Yoruba land, a few handles called him a mad man and moved on.
Now look at what Google AI is saying and using as reference, it is clearly not just one mad man, people are making multiple posts and feeding AI.
Igbó means forest or bush in Yorùbá and has nothing to do with other ethnicities in Nigeria. AI is clearly important in discussions and a lot of people use grok to challenge others’ ideas.
If we don’t nip this in the bud and respect boundaries this could create rifts and future land struggle for coming generations. A word is enough for the wise.
@Otunbakush1 They did this to me a couple of years ago. Ford F150 Lariat engine. They told me to do my worst. Goods sold not returnable crap.
Meanwhile, awọn Irunmọlẹ don send message make I no fight anybody, under any circumstances. Had to let go
The thing pain me sha! Greedy baskads 🙄
2023.....as Obidient i was 105% percent sure Peter Obi will be in Aso Rock...
As someome people trust my judgement...i got lots of calls from some Nigerians in diaspora that are in my network asking me to assure them...
I was like...
1) Check out online crowd control na😅
2) See the 1 million march in 36 States na😅
3) See media na 😅
4) Check out the almost lack of State/Presidency backing for Tinubu na😅😅
After the elections...and the shock of loss..i moved on immediately cos i no dey do human idol worship...I am ONLY LOYAL TO NAIJA!!..
All i did...Oya na, who dey for Aso Rock, make i see your hand...i get things for mind i wan make you do..🤩🤩.
So i went on deep dive research to understand what happened talking to senior people that undetstand Nsija politics.
I refused to just place it on rigging cos it sounded LAZY AND CHEAP to me considering the Tinubu that won has been EXCLUDED from Buhari Govt since 2015 and run up to elections every body language and Under G news from Presidency and its Cabal was " WE DO NOT WANT TINUBU!
So just how ?
The findings ..hmmmmm.
I learnt... I learnt so much.
And based on my learning i can tell you for sure...PRESIDENT TINUBU ia the only one among the Presidential hopefuls that has 101% of all indices present to win the elections.
He will win again 📌📌
And if you think the hate for him you see is enough to make him loose...trust me he was hated more in 2023.........
If you are interested let us take a bet!!...ready?
According to Femi Otedola, fake aspirin was the cause of his father’s stroke which led to his passing .
That’s fake drug k!lling a former Lagos Governor.
If it’s not capital punishment, any form of punishment for the heinous crime is like patting them on the back.

About a month ago, I was just thinking about how beautiful life could be if things eventually worked out the way we hoped. I realised that while trusting God is important, I also needed to put in extra effort, even when the process looked difficult and almost impossible.
Within just one month, Nigerians who truly value education and excellence decided to support and invest in me, even though many of them did not know me personally. From X to Instagram and Facebook, the love and encouragement have been overwhelming.
Recently, I’ve had the privilege of speaking at major seminars, while many students now show interest in hearing my story. Some even tell me I motivate them. The public speaking invitations make me feel honoured because this journey is no longer just about me, but also about inspiring students who genuinely desire academic excellence.
@PBATMediaCentre, thank you for bringing my story to the spotlight. My parents, who were not even active on social media before now, can finally see all the things people have been saying about their “Yhung Prof” through their new smartphones😂😊
At this point, I believe the ears of everyone who supported me must be ringing nonstop 😂 Mum keeps praying loudly for them so many times that God probably already knows all their names by heart.
@OyebamijiBola, thank you for fulfilling your promises quicker than I expected. In a time where many people doubt politicians’ promises, your actions truly stood out.
To @NELFUND and the management, thank you for not just acknowledging my appreciation, but also contributing positively to my life in ways I truly value.
@officialABAT through the support of good people under your administration, I am gradually overcoming financial struggles, planning my future better, and receiving support to start something meaningful.
The happiness in my parents’ hearts over the past month is something I cannot fully describe, and I am grateful to now be a blessing to people around me.
Cheers to one month of love, support, new opportunities, and to more meaningful connections, progress, and breakthroughs.

@BalogunKakanfo1@YOLICOM6 While not disputing the guy's parentage, let the records show that OKORO is a Yoruba name....
@waa_sere please enlighten us here.
@Zamani_WLK Hence the saying in Ibadan:
"Bí ènìyàn bá jẹ amala gbígbóná àti ewedu tí kò la òógùn, kó tètè yára gba ọdọ dókítà lọ!"
If you eat hot amala & ewedu and you don't sweat, consult your doctor immediately!
