I wanted to write something here about the Berlin conference before the day runs out
Today making it 140 years since 14 Europe powers, Ottoman Turkey, and the USA sat down to decide the fate of Africa

What's going on in Nigeria?
Terrorists demanded Sharia law while holding citizens captive and suddenly Muslims are all over my timeline explaining the benefits of Sharia?
Are you guys finally agreeing that terrorists are the military arm of your religion? I don't understand.
EXCLUSIVE: Aare Bolarinwa Oladimeji on Think Yoruba First, His Co-Founders, and the Unfinished Business of Awolowo's Vision
At the 4th Annual Yoruba Global Conference, our correspondent Adekusibe Ademola Adedayo sat down with Aare Bolarinwa Oladimeji, President of Think Yoruba First.
He revealed that the movement was born from the urgent need to protect Yoruba civilisation, acknowledging his co-founders and outlining a vision for powerful socio-political, economic, and geopolitical Yoruba blocs.
He also discussed the movement's biggest achievements, the obstacles in its path, and the future of Yoruba land.
What exactly did he say about Chief Obafemi Awolowo and the 1914 amalgamation? Why does he believe Yorubas must never become drawers of water and hewers of wood in Nigeria?
Isn’t it funny that right at the time when jihad terrorists began to use violence, kidnappings, and terror to reportedly demand Sharia, the “moderate” ones immediately emerged to follow it up with a polite, diplomatic PR campaign for the exact same demand?.
At the annual World Ifá Festival in Oke Itase in the ancient city of Ilé-Ifẹ̀, Òsá Méjì emerged as the guiding Odu for humanity throughout the 2026 spiritual year. The sacred grounds hosted thousands including Babaláwo, devotees, monarchs, academics, and global Ifá practitioners. The gathering concluded with the customary divination that delivers yearly spiritual counsel to Yorùbá people and Ifá adherents worldwide.
The Odu for the year, signifies both challenges and blessings ending in divinely ordained transformation, spiritually, culturally and economically.
