Concerned Omo Yoruba Group condemns Oyo Government house intruders

Image
  We watch in utter dismay the buffoonery of some misguided miscreants in the guise of Yoruba Nation Agitators who were alleged to have broken into the Oyo State Government House to take over the Government. Much as the self-determination is an inalienable right of the people while nobody including the government can deny this fact: nevertheless, there are rules and procedures that create a path to self-determination which do not include breaking into Government house like thieves in the night. It is against this background that we in Concerned Omo Yoruba worldwide  condemn this nefarious act by these hoodlums and advise the law to take its course in this regard. More importantly, we advise all well-meaning Nigerians particularly the Yoruba People to disregard this nonsense as the joke of the century while they warn their children and wards not to be used by the masterminds of this anomaly.  Signed leader: Akogun Tunde Omololu Jimba

The History of Oduduwa anthem

Image
This Song was written by Pa Obafemi Awolowo for Afenifere- UPN around 1980 or so. It was composed by Pa Hubert Ogunde. It has for ever, been recited and sang at the beginning of any Afenifere meetings. I also realised that Yoruba Tennis Club adopted it as their anthem too. Credit is given to Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola who adopted it for Oshun state thereby making it available for wider Yoruba audience. Ondo state under our late Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu also adopted it. All Yoruba States are being awaited to follow suit. I love walking tall when I remember the last stanza which says " Rise up oh you children of Oduduwa, Take your rightfull place, You are the glory of the Black race" I have had the privileged of leading the Anthem at any Afenifere occasion for about 10yrs after the sickness and eventual death of Alhaji Omonitoju of Lagos state Afenifere.  I get so emotionally deep in the Anthem when I watched the body language and countenance of some of our late leaders especiall...
