Is there any Yoruba who listens to Oriki and doesn’t feel a sense of pride ? #KemKem

I know none. Even God likes it, who am I not to?

You know it's time for something else when: ⬜⬜🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ ⬜🟨🟨🟨⬜ 🟨🟨🟨🟨⬜ 🟨🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟨🟨🟩🟨🟨 🟨🟩🟩🟨🟨 🟨🟩🟩🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩⬛

Tell me who comes close, yoruba is bigger than africa itself

No lie detected

I had goosebumps listening to this as if I was the one he's eulogising. Yoruba oral tradition and praise poetry has a way of connecting to your subconscious. We should do everything possible to promote this culture. ❤️❤️❤️

To promote and preserve it... ❤️

Truth is that over 80% of the Yoruba kingdom has accepted and acknowledged the Ooni position as the true leadership seat of the Yoruba kingdom. The Alaafin is respected but there is a steeze that comes with the Ooni 👑

Even in the ancient times, the Ọọ̀ni gives the sanction and blessings to the Aláàfin of Ọ̀yọ́, without which other vasal kings won't recognise the Aláàfin's authenticity. The attached image is Ọọ̀ni Aderemi presenting the Aláàfin Adeyemi with a letter to the throne
