If awakening means losing ourselves in borrowed identities, then we are not awakening, we are drifting. I am Egba. My mother is Egba. So I know what Egba heritage looks like. I know the pride, the simplicity, the identity in our dressing. What I saw yesterday? It didn’t feel like us. At some point, our cultural expressions started looking like a costume party, confused, mixed, and disconnected. We are borrowing aesthetics from everywhere, yet slowly forgetting what is originally ours. This is not about criticism for the sake of it. It is about preservation. Culture is not something you decorate, it is something you understand, protect, and represent correctly. You don’t awaken a culture by abandoning its identity. You awaken it by owning it fully. If Egba people cannot confidently represent Egba culture in Abeokuta, then where exactly will it be preserved? Yoruba awakening does not start with festivals. It starts with the mindset. Knowing who we, respecting it and refusing to dilute it for trends or aesthetics. If we don’t define our culture, others will and we will start wailing again. Yoruba Ronu o!
