In Oodualand (Yorubaland), money has never been foremost in the Oduduwa (Yoruba) value system

In our value system money is number six What are the first five you may ask? - The first is làákà’yè - The application of knowledge, wisdom & understanding… (Ogbón and ìmò òye) - The second is Ìwà Omolúàbí - (integrity) Someone with integrity is a man/woman of their word. If you have all the wealth in the world but lack integrity, you are not worth a thing. Integrity is combined with iwa, (character) which we regard as Omolúàbí. - The third is Akínkanjú or Akin - (Valour). That is why Balóguns is second-in-command to the leaders in Oodua land (Yoruba land) Balóguns are people that can lead them to war. To lead with great courage in the face of danger, especially in battle. Oodua (Yoruba) people have no respect for cowards. - The fourth is Anísélápá tí kìíse òle - (Having a visible means of livelihood). A person must be identified with a visible means of livelihood that guarantees a lawful income or sustenance. His or her profession or job must be open and legally approved by society, and not through cheating or forcefulness. - The fifth is iyi - (Honour) Oduduwa (Yoruba) people place a premium on the gait with which individuals carry themselves and their public reputation. That is why Oodua or Oduduwa (Yorùbá) people usually say when you set out to look for money and you meet honour on the way then you don't need the journey anymore, because if you get the money, you will still use it to buy honour. - The last in the Oodua (Yorùbá) value system is owó tàbí orò - (Money or wealth). If putting money ahead of the other five, then you are nobody in the Yoruba land of the olden days. Unfortunately, this is being pushed to the front burner nowadays due to the erosion of our value system. Please feel free to share with fellow Yoruba sons and daughters Read the full article

By • Olalekan Fagbade The loyalists of ex-minister Rauf Aregbesola have renamed their faction within the All Progressives Congress (APC), Osun state to the Omoluabi caucus. They also disowned their members numbering about seventy-nine who were appointed by Governor Ademola Adeleke as caretaker committee members for local government areas across the state. The Nation recalled that the Aregbesola’s loyalists had opposed the reelection of ex-governor Adegboyega Oyetola under the faction within APC named, The Osun Progressives (TOP). The faction was dissolved in December 2023 by one of their leaders who is the former speaker of Osun State House of Assembly, Najeem Salam. In a recent development, the chairman of the defunct faction, Adelowo Adebiyi in a statement on Thursday disclosed that the new name of the faction is now Omoluabi caucus. The statement reads: “We wish to state that whosoever that has been appointed into political offices by the Adeleke’s administration got such, practically on his or her individual’s connection and influence, and not on behalf of Omoluabi, or as compensation for defunct The Osun Progress (TOP) or Omoluabi caucus. “We restated unequivocally that at no time did the defunct TOP enter into any agreement with the PDP to work for it; which might warrant the erroneous compensation as being falsely spread by the mischief makers. Those who feel strongly about their individual interests couldn’t be stopped from pursuing such, hence the situation whereby some of them accepted to serve in the PDP government. He noted that: “We restate our commitment to the APC. On behalf of our Patron, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, we thank all those who had been steadfast and absolutely loyal within our tendency and urge all members to start the mobilisation work of politicians and voters in earnest for the APC, our party ahead of future elections"     #APC #appointment #Aregbesola #GovernorAdeleke #GovernorofOsun #PDP

BABALAWO NO SÓLO ES UNA CEREMONIA INICIÁTICA; ES UN TÍTULO DE HONOR QUE NO SE COMPRA CON DINERO…

Ser un Babalawo va más allá de una ceremonia iniciática; someterse a una iniciación específicamente de Ifá no te hace ser un Babalawo, ponerte ese titulo sin pasar por la escuela es pretencioso, tenemos que reflexionar en eso para no vivir engañándonos a nosotros mismos y ni engañar a los demás.

La iniciación en Ifá es la oportunidad que tenemos para un gran despertar, para comenzar un largo viaje hacia el interior de nuestro propio ser, al despertar de la conciencia, y con conocimientos poder restaurar nuestra vida actual y la del ser humano que toca nuestra puerta.

Ser un Babalawo es estar conectado con la naturaleza interna y externa, estar conectado con el Universo todo el tiempo, es saber hablar con ellos, entender su respuesta.

Ser un Babalawo es saber hacer que las cosas evolucionen, lograr hacer que las cosas buenas sucedan y las malas desaparezcan o en el peor de los casos se minoricen.

Ser un Babalawo es saber convertir lo malo en lo bueno, las desgracias en fortunas, las perdidas en ganancias, la soledad en familia, la escaces en abundancia, la pobreza en riqueza, saber encontrar soluciones, saber tener paciencia, ser resiliente, ser senzato, humilde, sincero, honesto.

Ser un Babalawo es sentarte hablar con cualquier persona y dejarle un buen mensaje que levante su autoestima.

Ser un Babalawo es levantarse temprano y saludar el cielo antes de la salida del Sol, hablar con el Sol, hablar con la Luna, con las estrellas, los astros, los planetas y con las Deidades diariamente y saber reconocer que todo eso está dentro de nosotros mismos.

Ser un Babalawo es saber relacionar el mundo material con el espiritual.

Ser un Babalawo es conocer los valores éticos de un ser humano completo (Omoluabi).

Ser un Babalawo es saber aplicar las medicinas de Ifá ancestral de forma correcta, saber realizar diversos rituales e iniciaciones con conocimiento, entendimiento y sabiduría.

Ser un Babalawo es estar bien versado en Ifá, conocer muchas historias, versos, sus medicinas (akose), ipese, etutu, Ebo riru, tener Asé, tener un alto nivel de interpretación.

Ser un Babalawo es saber guiar por un buen camino a los suyos, por el camino del recto operar: pensar en el bien, hablar bien y hacer el bien.

Ser un Babalawo viene grabado en tu ADN, y es un compromiso con el Universo, es ser un elegido dentro de la comunidad Humana.

Si aspiras a esto, debes estar preparado al gran aprendizaje de la gran escuela que es la Tierra, conocerás el hambre, la pobreza, las peleas, las perdidas, enfermedades raras, problemas de diferentes rangos, todo eso te pasara... y sabes para qué, para transformarte y trasformar a los demás, es solo así que vas a poder comprender la sabiduría del Universo, para guiar tus pasos y tal vez el día de mañana puedas dar un buen consejo; no creas que con Ifá serás superior a los demás o que disfrutaras de lujos mundanos, mucho menos controlarás o dominaras a los demás; si crees eso estás en un grave error.

De la misma manera que conocerás las malas experiencias, así mismo conocerás las buenas cosas de la vida; paso a paso, porque de lo que se trata la vida es de vivir experiencias, aprender y evolucionar para trasmitir y compartir al que viene atrás, es dejar una buena guía, un buen legado, de la misma manera que Òrúnmìlá y los Òrìsà nos dejaron la suya, si es que ese es el propósito de Olódùmarè y tu Orí para tu destino.

Una persona que vivió una experiencia, esta en la mejor posición para aconsejar, que otro que lo aprendió de un libro o por boca de otro, aunque se reconoce su esfuerzo.

Ser un Awo es diferente a ser un Babalawo, un Awo es un aspirante al titulo de Babalawo, es un estudiante activo dentro de esta Cultura y debe asumir esto con mucha dedicación y seriedad, un Awo siempre está estudiando Ifá con sus mayores, con sus colegas Babalawo, siempre trabajando en los días de adoración diaria de Ifá y Òrìsà según el calendario Yorùbá, ya que cada día es regido por un Irúnmolè que lo encabeza junto a los Òrìsà que lo acompañan, es importantísimo llevar esto al pie de la letra, pues es esto lo que desarrolla la espiritualidad de uno y es la mejor manera de estudiar y practicar al mismo tiempo.

Un Omo Ifá es el que se inicia, pero ni lo estudia, ni lo profundiza, solo a pasado los rituales, depende de otros Awo o Babalawo que lo asistan en sus necesidades, algunos también aprenden algunas técnicas básicas solo para ellos.

Cualquiera de los 3 casos es un buen paso en la tierra, para estar protegiendo y más cerca de la naturaleza, lo más importante es que seas consciente de cual es tu posición.

El sagrado Odú Irete mejí nos menciona: A quienes me escuchen si han sido llamados por mi, no teman; quienes tengan fé, paciencia y confianza, dispocision al sacrificio y a la entrega... no teman ni a las pruebas ni a las tribulaciones, porque antes o después vuestras serán las bendiciones...

Al final seremos eternos aprendices de Ifá.

¡Feliz día a los seres de bien!

Why do some Omoluabi (Yoruba) sometimes leave their usage of words and result in using borrowed words?

For example, Jimoh instead of Eti. Some will even say "Jimoh Oloyin".ki ni itumo Jimoh Oloyin? Some Arabic words that found their way into names Yoruba Atalata --- Tuesday, Alaruba--- Wednesday Alamisi- Thursday, Jimoh for Friday. Yoruba doesn't need to be loaned days of the week from Arabic. Loaned words should only occur if a particular culture doesn't have equivalents. The standard words for the days of the week are : Àìkú--Sunday Ajé---Monday Ìṣẹ́gun--Tuesday Ọjọ́--Wednesday Ọjọ́bọ--Thursday Ẹtì--Friday Àbámẹ́ta--Saturday. The seven-day calendar was made up to adapt the Gregorian calendar brought by the colonialists. The Yorubas already developed their advanced calendar system before the Gregorian calendar was introduced. Yoruba calendar was called the Kojoda and according to the Yoruba Kojoda, we are now in the year 10065 (Gregorian is 2023). The traditional Yoruba days of the week are Read the full article

Don’t allow strangers to take over your land – Lagos Yoruba group tells kinsmen

The Yoruba World Congress (YWC) has enjoined indigenes of Lagos and other residents who are of Yoruba ethnicity not to allow strangers take over the state. The group made the call while addressing a press conference in Ibadan on Thursday. A spokesman for the group, Babatunde Tolase while addressing journalists explained that any attempt to displace the current governor of the state, Babajide Same-Olu is an attempt by those who he described as strangers to take over the commercial centre of Yoruba land. He added that any attempt to elect any other candidate apart from Sanwo-Olu is another plan by the strangers to penetrate and take over the entire Yoruba land. He explained that it has been discovered that the present agitation was calculated to invade and take over by crooked means, the Yoruba economic centre. He then urged indigenes and residents of the state who are from Yoruba-speaking areas in Oyo, Osun, Ogun, Ondo and Ekiti states to re-elect Sanwo-Olu. He added that the governor had been endorsed by all the Yoruba socio-cultural groups. Tolase enjoined his kinsmen to wake up from slumber and retain their pride as Omoluabi. He said, “This press briefing becomes imperative due to various calumny information making the rounds about the ownership of the commercial and economic capital of Nigeria, our great and dear Lagos State (Eko). “From history, which is verifiable, the settlers in Eko are Aworis, who originated from Ile-Ife, the origin and ancestral home of the Yorubas, Eko is a coastal area which serves as the port for where goods and services are exchanged from time immemorial. This was why the British colonialists found it easy to settle in Lagos and carry out economic activities therein. “As we count down to the rescheduled Governorship and House of Assembly elections on 18th March 2023, this briefing is a clarion call to all Yoruba Omoluabi that cuts across ten (10) states in Nigeria (Lagos, Oyo, Ogun, Osun, Ondo, Ekiti, Kwara, Kogi, Edo and Delta) that are residing in Lagos State to re-awaken their consciousness by exercising their franchise in favour of the integrity of Yorubaland. “As core Yorubas, we wish to state with emphasis that Governor Babajide Sanwolu is the preferred candidate endorsed by the Yoruba world congress and by extension, all Yoruba worldwide to hold the mantle of leadership of our dear Lagos state Gov. Babajide Sanwoolu is a thoroughbred Yoruba man and from our assessment of his last three years and some months in the administration of Lagos, we all can attest to his capacity and ability to succeed in Lagos to greater heights. “The unusual and annoying laying of claim to a particular candidate by a tribe, which Lagosians have over the years accommodated and allowed to thrive on their soil is a plan to take over Yorubaland forcefully. “We know that our magnanimity is being taken for granted. But we require and appeal to all Yorubas to stand tall in the defence of our fatherland. Let us all come out en masse for the sake of the unity of Yorubaland to vote for Babajide Sanwoolu to come back to complement his hard work. We all can testify to his good works and managerial skills”. Read the full article

Hypocrisy and the dysfunctional world order, By Omoluabi Dele

Image credit: Gulf News …what deeply riles is the wilful determination – coming with economic power and the imbalances in geo-power relations that it motivates – to accuse others of what we are as profoundly guilty of, and foist names on them that equally describe us. At the end of the day, we are all humans and we are work in progress. It’s Hypocrisy, Stupid! Nothing seems to be more definitive…
