My wish has always been to educate the Yoruba people from all corners of West Africa. It is essential because we are scattered and some do not know enough about their culture. Others who are together do not know anything about those who are not in their sight, it is serious.

Il a été condamné ❤️

C’est tellement fou

some timeless Yorùbá women’s hairstyles—from ≈ 1000 years ago. ladies, would you rock these?

They're not"anti-Israel" - they're pro-humanity. Something your genocide-endorsing paper wouldn't understand.

Début de semaine cauchemardesque en Afrique, il faut recommencer

Au Ghana, depuis 1982: • Jerry Rawlings a fait 2 mandats; • John Kufuor a fait 2 mandats; • John Atta-Mills a fait un mandat (décédé en cours de mandat); • Nana Akufo-Addo a fait 2 mandats; • John Dramani Mahama est en train de faire son 2e mandat. Pendant ce temps, au

This is borrowed culture from Yoruba, you will not find people from East tied Gele before amalgamation, and nothing bad in having your tribal name for borrowed culture,for the convenience of pronunciation, but credit must be given to those who deserve it. Yorubas are pathfinder.

When a piece of fashion holds cultural significance, it transcends age and becomes embraced by all generations. The gele is a clear example, both children and adults wear it as an expression of Yoruba heritage, pride, and identity.

Aṣọ-ẹbí as a Yoruba concept was not even invented in Lagos, nor was it synthesised in Lagos. Don't try this nonsense again, @ndaniTV. Get your facts right and be respectful about our social history, or find other subjects to distort. I'm so bothered. What a disservice.

Sorry, Frank Osodi, Aṣọ-Ẹbí fashion is a Pan-Yoruba concept that predates the 1990s and does not belong (solely) to Lagos. Nor is Lagos even a hub of Aṣọ-Òkè weaving, @ndaniTV. The overselling of Lagos can be an overkill.

Aṣọ-Òkè is so-named precisely because it is cloth from the Yoruba upcountry, not Lagos. @ndaniTV This sleek little video is a misrepresentation, or glossing over, of our sartorial history.

I realized that women are truly evil when they’re insecure. How yall mad at her bc her stomach flat after she had a baby just because yours wasn’t? Is that her fault. Is she supposed to hide her body to make strangers feel better? Yall bright

Afolashade omo Yoruba atata . Makeup and gele by me 💯🥰

@SheldonCooperNG Is this a ronú as well saying what Beyoncé is wearing is not gele? That whole post is filled with people saying it is not gele. We have so many evidence of yorubas tying different types of materials and styles so you can claim you adopted the style but trying to say one is gele

I like how you worded this like you care about all cultures, but you’re actually reinforcing cultural erasure with this statement. What if we are all from the same region, does that mean we shouldn’t be allowed to claim what’s ours? Asian cultures exist side by side with shared

The thing about Yorùbá is there is always proof of concept. We don't just do things without reason. Evidence yapa.

Ibos wanna claim damask as ichafu but guess who introduced and imported damask to Nigeria? Yes Yoruba businessmen did. How can igbos claim damask is their traditional fabric when it’s not even indigenous to this part of the world? Awon culture vultures
