Most people haven't heard about the AMAZING Ero Omola waterfall in the Ekiti-Oke Ero constituency, Kwara state. This wonderful natural beauty in yorubaland is one of the most splendid sights you will ever behold.

Teaching Chrmistry in the Yoruba Language..
A language that doesn't evolve with the times is bound for extinction. Glad Yoruba is adapting itself for modern usage.

THIS IS SO FUNNY.
So, you accepted Ancestors' FOOD, clothing style, poetry, use of words, Proverbs, culture and more... But when it comes to their SPIRITUALITY, you draw the line.

You think they got everything right except Spirituality?
Think again.

@NetflixNaija Is it a coincidence that we have three movies this year:

Funmilayo Ransome Kuti
Bashorun Ga'a, and now
Lisabi: The uprising

All dealing with revolting against bad leadership and making the voice of the people heard through protests?

One common thread is a champion.

[EniObanke-Bravo @OnikoyiBankole]

@NetflixNaija I am extremely proud to be a Yoruba man.
We have history, culture and tradition.
We know our past, recognize our present and understand what the future holds for us.
This Epic is superb.

He was the first African Musician to appear in a Hollywood movie; he appeared in two movies and numerous documentaries.

After achieving national success in Nigeria during the 1970s and founding his own independent label, Sunny Adé signed to Island Records in 1982 and achieved international success with the albums Juju Music (1982) and Synchro System (1983); the latter garnered him a Grammy nomination, a first for a Nigerian artist.

The Yoruba Medical doctor and Herbalist (Onisegun) who helped find a cure to Malaria in the early 1900s.
Born in Abeokuta to Sierra Leonean missionaries in 1848. He was 4 when his parents returned to Sierra Leone. In Freetown he was put under the tutelage of the great A.B.C. Sibthorpe at Hastings, a suburb of Freetown. He received a Bachelors degree in Medicine from the Fourah Bay College.

After graduating from Fourah Bay College, he taught at the Evangelical United Brethren Church School, he was in his mid-twenties when he left Sierra Leone and moved to the United States where he was ordained a Minister in the Wesleyan Methodist church. He later qualified as a medical doctor and became a Fellow of the Society of Apothecaries (F.S.A.) of the United States. Shortly thereafter, he became an affiliate of the National Association of Medical Herbalists in the United Kingdom.

Combining his scientific training with a wealth of knowledge on the healing properties of traditional herbs, roots and leaves, his fame soon spread to all parts of West Africa. His cures were a mixture of the orthodox and the traditional. He cured rheumatic pains, skin diseases, nervous and eye diseases, etc. During the 1918 Spanish influenza epidemic, he invented a mixture of “tea-bush”, “camphor”, lime and spirit which saved many lives at a time when global the influenza death toll was in the millions.

He was appointed by the Colonial Government to help find a cure for Malaria when it became a drastic taker of lives, mainly amongst the Europeans living in West Africa. His preparation of traditional Yoruba herbs which consist mainly of ‘broomstone leaves’ and ‘agiri’ proved to be effective. His remedy cured his patients but they would return after several weeks.

Worried about the Malaria epidemic, he set up an organisation to work with volunteers who became known as the “mosquito missionaries”. The volunteers were sent to the houses of the locals and Whites across West Africa with the help of the colonial government to investigate what made the people fall sick again after being cured.

With his research he was able to demonstrate that the cause of malaria was as a result of mosquitoes breeding in stagnant pools of water around houses which causes reinfection in cured people. His name is Dr. AUGUSTUS ABAYOMI-COLE and he died in 1942 at the ripe age of 93.
