Father teaching his daughter how to perform the Yoruba Báta dance.
Only Olódùmarè knows why Yoruba people, especially parents, seem to be making such a strong effort to teach their children the Yoruba language, culture, and traditions all of a sudden.
Everywhere you look, Yoruba parents are reconnecting their children with their heritage, teaching them the language, traditional dances, music, history, and customs.
Perhaps it is a sign of a cultural awakening: after generations of assimilation and the fear of losing our identity, Yoruba people are realizing that culture survives when it is intentionally passed down to the next generation. What was once taken for granted is now being preserved, celebrated, and proudly taught to our children.

Oyarzabal no quería, pero el Real Madrid, tal y como se escucha a David Labrador, speaker del club, decide incluirlo en el homenaje por la consecución del Mundial de España.
Gestos que definen grandeza. Actos que marcan la diferencia. En el lado correcto
🚨🎙️Vinicius Jnr on Jose Mourinho said to him after substituting him for Yan Diomande in Real Madrid’s 4-1 victory over Real Sociedad:
🗣️“I was still catching my breath when I saw my number go up on the board. 4-1 up, two assists and a goal on the night—hard to ask for a better evening at the Bernabéu. As I walked toward the touchline to make way for Yan, José was already standing there, pointing right back out toward the pitch with that look he gets when he knows he was right.
"You see? I told you stay in the box, it will work," he said as soon as I reached him. He leaned in so I could hear him over the noise. "Listen! Listen! Can you hear the Bernabéu applauding? I told you, this is where you have to be. This is your home."
I couldn't help but laugh. We traded a high five, and he grinned, throwing in one last joke before I grabbed my jacket: "Now you're coming off and Yan is going on. Let's see what he can do."
I just smiled back and told him, "Thanks, coach."
When you hear the whole stadium chanting your name like that, it hits you every single time. People talked a lot last summer, spreading all kinds of rumors about me leaving. But moments like tonight are the reason I never doubted where I belonged. The Mister knows it, the fans know it, and I know it. Madrid is home.”
🚨Real Sociedad head coach Pellegrino Matarazzo on Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappé after Real Madrid’s 4-1 win:
🎙️ Reporter: “Pellegrino, you managed to make the game difficult for Real Madrid for long periods. What made the difference in the end, particularly with Bellingham and Mbappé?”
🗣️ Pellegrino Matarazzo: “Honestly, the whole week we were trying to understand how José Mourinho and his team were going to approach the game. We prepared for different situations because we knew the quality they have.
In the first half, we felt we had the game where we wanted it. We were competing well and thought we could take control of the match. But then Jude Bellingham basically said, ‘No way.’
I’ve honestly never seen a player work as tirelessly as he does. He was everywhere. He kept running, pressing, making himself available and forcing my players to constantly look over their shoulders. We had to worry about him every second.
Our main plan was obviously to deal with Vinícius Jr. and Kylian Mbappé. We managed to keep Vini relatively quiet, but Bellingham was the one we struggled to contain. Every time we thought we had solved one problem, he created another.
Players like that are invaluable to any team. They give you intensity, personality and belief when the game becomes difficult.
And you have to give credit to José Mourinho. Clearly, he is getting the very best out of the stars in his squad. The way his players are performing with that confidence is impressive.
As coaches, we can learn from that. José is an inspiration to many of us, and tonight was another example of why.”
🚨 Kylian Mbappe on working under Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid:
🗣️ Mbappé: “Before Jose came, obviously I knew everything people said about him. The Special One, serial winner, all of that. But you don’t really understand it until he becomes your manager.
From the 1st day, everybody understood the hierarchy. He respects you, he listens to you, but you also know immediately who the boss is. There’s no confusion.
He keeps telling us, ‘I don’t need perfect players. I need players with character.’ Then he reminds you how many times teams with character have won him trophies.”
🗣️ Reporter: “The players apparently call him ‘The Professor’ now?”
🗣️ Mbappe : “Sometimes. Because he always has an explanation for everything. What you want, what he wants from you, what the team needs. And somehow by the end of the conversation, what Jose wanted has become what you wanted too.
That’s when I understood why they call him The Special One. I thought it was a nickname. Apparently it’s a job description.”
