  • @aghonelego2379
    @aghonelego2379 Před 10 měsíci +62

    This is Yoruba culture and their dress has become Nigerians' cultural dressings because every woman in Nigeria today dresses like a Yoruba woman and every tribe from all of southern Nigeria has borrowed something from Yoruba men and women dressing and including lifestyle, especially parties and vibes.
    The ladies groups and men groups wear Aso Egbe which in English is called Association Uniform, made from Aso Oke.
    In those associations are bankers associations, traders associations, farmers associations, biologist associations, doctors associations, teachers associations, market women associations, social groups associations etc. This is a typical Yoruba way of life. Yoruba is powerful and influential that's why their culture still dominates in the Americas because they stay true to their Africanness and I wish they can do better still.

    Ojude" translates to "outside the King's Palace" festival. It's important to note that Nigeria, like America, is composed of states. Nigeria consists of a federation of 36 states, while the US has 50. The ruler featured in the festival is from Ogun state where am from. Given that Yoruba people reside in different states, there are variations in accents and celebrations. This comparison can help u understand that, much like hip-hop culture differs between New York, Los Angeles, and the South, midwest despite the variations in accents and sounds, it's all still hip-hop but celebrated differently. same as Yoruba culture celebration.

    Yoruba culture is the "flagship" culture of Nigeria. They truly were gifted with an amazing culture which stands in stark contrast to the image of black people being culturally deprived and that everything they have was given to them by Europeans.
    The Hausa people have a gathering called the "Durbar " where many people in different outfits ride horses and salute the Emir of Kano.

      @@oceejekwam6829 Definition of ‘flagship’: The best or most important product, idea, building, etc. that an organisation owns or produces.
      Example usage: This machine is the flagship in our new range of computers. The company's flagship store is in New York. [Source: Cambridge Online Dictionary]
      .
      Provide evidence that Yoruba culture, one out of over two hundred vibrant tribes, is ‘the best or most important’ in Nigeria. Or are you going by some supremacist ideology like your colonisers? It is well documented in Nigerian and African history how the colonisers worked, identifying larger tribes, making deals with them, elevating them in local governance and pitting them against the others around them. Have you retained this coloniser-fuelled belief in the ‘supremacy’ of some/one tribe(s) above other Nigerian/African tribes, despising the coloniser but holding on to the rewards they cut out for you? This is why colonialisation continues in Africa. The originators have withdrawn obvious presence but they remain in some African minds.

    Is not Africa culture, our continent culture is not all the same. This is specifically Nigerian yuroba thing

    Now this is an ÌJẸ̀BÚ KINGDOM event. Not a Yorùbá festival.
    The invited guests and everyone else are most welcomed, but the MAIN participants are indigenous Ìjẹ̀bús people.
    Now I wouldn't call Ìjẹ̀bú-Ode where the paramount ruler of Ìjẹ̀búland reigns and which is generally considered the headquarters of Ìjẹ̀bú kingdom, a "small town." It's a city.
    Also the main Ijebuland is so big that it shares boundaries with at least another state in South-West Nigeria.
    Not to mention, there are Ijebus hyphenated with some other Yorùbá kingdoms.
    Then again, the Ijebu kingdom is big enough to become a state -- but for political reasons it is joined to other ethnic nationalities as a state.
    I am Ìjẹ̀bú and it irritates me when our events are termed Yorùbá events, when we know we are not exactly the favourites of some Yorùbá people.
    That's the only issue I have with the man's video.
    His narration was not completely accurate, but I will like to think he didn't intentionally set out to undermine the core focus of the festival.

      Come on men, are Ijebus not Yoruba? They’re probably the most prominent and powerful people of the “Yoruba race.” It’s not like the Ondos, Oyos and Lagos are claiming the festival. Just like how Ijebu cannot claim the Eyo festival, or the Osun Oshogbo festival, so they cannot claim the Ojude Oba. But it’s all Yoruba. Even other ethnic groups/race in and outside Nigeria loved and appreciated it so much, you see them online claiming “the Nigerian” culture. So bros, no division here. It’s Yoruba, let’s all be proud as Nigerians and Africans.

      It's not "division". It's RESPECT for IDENTITY.
      A Yorùbá proverb says, "There are CLEAR BOUNDARIES even between the farmlands of a father and son."
      How would you feel if people called you by another man's name, and when you correct them, they accuse you of trying to "divide" your gender?
      After all, what is the difference between a Femi and a Tunde? They are both men AND Yoruba, so who cares if we call Tunde by the name Femi? Who cares if we award Tunde's achievements to Femi? Who cares if we wish Femi a "Happy Birthday" during Tunde's birthday party when it's not even Femi's birthday?
      Acknowledging and respecting individual differences is what keeps people STRONGER TOGETHER.

      ​@@kennyogunbekun2466ó sún mi o. See these are the signs that all those calling for separation, even if there was a Yoruba nation, we would still be looking for differences and trying to separate each other.
      And I'm ijebu too btw

      ​@@adeOLUWAand your anology doesn't work. Femi is clearly not tunde and tunde is not femi. Ijebu is Yoruba.
