If you want to research a culture that’s not yours it’s important to do it deeply and respectfully.

Olakunle Osodi is saying hello..... he's instrumental in promoting Yorùbá

3 Observations. 1. He didn't give SUYA a western name. Suya is Suya just as Pizza does not have an African name. Pizza is Pizza. 2. He honoured the origin. He didn't dilute the source by vaguely calling it "a Nigerian delicacy." He said Northern Nigeria. He didn't add a letter to make it sound Yoruba - 'Sunya'. It is Suya. 3. Clearly, he is Yoruba. We do not claim what is not ours. Not food. Not fashion. Not culture. We are complete all by ourselves. BE LIKE OLANIYI

Asake is intentional with his Yorùbá. Despite speaking Yorùbá, his music is not limited

Yoruba civilization remains a powerful cultural force in Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹, Benin 🇧🇯, Cuba 🇨🇺, and Brazil 🇧🇷, Cote D’voire 🇨🇮, Togo 🇹🇬, Ghana 🇬🇭, Jamaica 🇯🇲 etc with its traditions, spirituality, and customs continuing to shape these societies today. Yoruba identity thrives through language, religion, festivals, music and artistic expressions, making it one of the most influential African cultures in the diaspora. #Yoruba

Happy New Month! Wishing you a joyful and successful May filled with new opportunities, growth, and happiness. #YorubaGreatness

When it’s time from politics Kogi and Kwara are North, when it’s time for Appointment Kogi and Kwara are Yoruba people 😩😩😩 God will punish all of you trying to marginalize the people of Kogi and Kwara state.

“From Yoruba to Igbo, Hausa to every other Nigerian, this film celebrates our rich cultural heritage and tells a story that unites us all.” A story about Efunroye who lived before Nigeria was even formed celebrates “our” rich cultural heritage and unites us all. Keep pandering to people who won’t even watch your movie. Very soon we will gatekeep how you Yoruba movie producers tell stories of Yoruba legends and history because we will not allow you to keep bastardising our culture and history. For now keep fooling.

Dear Yorubas, As you elect people into various elective offices, keep this in mind. Elect those that will not repeat this nonsense. People that will not dine with those that will mock you and rub it on your face. Shine your eyes.

PUBLIC STATEMENT BY THINK YORUBA FIRST (TYF) On Yoruba Unity and the Danger of Divisive Rhetoric Think Yoruba First (TYF) wishes to inform the general public that our institution does not condone any act of division among the Yoruba people. We strongly condemn the growing charade of divisive rhetoric that seeks to pitch the ancient Yoruba kingdoms against one another. These narratives—circulating across social media platforms, private conversations, and WhatsApp groups—represent a dangerous erosion of the unity that has historically defined the Yoruba nation. We categorically oppose any attempt to fracture the House of Odùduwà through hate speech, tribalism, and deliberate misinformation. Furthermore, TYF strongly condemns individuals—past or present—who have associated with our organization, yet engage in actions that undermine Yoruba traditional institutions and weaken the fabric of unity forged through shared struggle and sacrifice, particularly during the Kiriji War. We also denounce those who, knowingly or unknowingly, play into external agendas aimed at destabilizing Yorubaland. History has shown that internal division is often the first tool used by external powers to weaken and dominate a people. At TYF, our ideology is clear: Our name is our mission—Think Yoruba First. We exist to: * Unite all Yoruba people across regions and borders * Celebrate sub-ethnic diversity while strengthening collective identity * Restore pride in Yoruba heritage, institutions, and destiny We respect every Yoruba sub-ethnic identity—Ẹ̀gbá, Ìjẹ̀bú, Ọ̀yọ́, Ifẹ̀, Ondo, Ekiti, Ijesha, and beyond—and affirm that our diversity is our strength, not our weakness. We use this opportunity to respectfully call on the two royal institutions of Yorubaland that has been at the center of the imbroglio that started in 2025: * The seat of the Ooni of Ife (the Source) * The seat of the Alaafin of Oyo (descendant of Oranmiyan) to rise together in unity and issue a firm and coordinated warning against divisive actors who threaten the cohesion of Yorubaland. At a time when unity is most needed, silence from leadership may be misinterpreted as tolerance of destructive rhetoric. History provides sobering examples of what becomes of divided peoples: * The fall of the Kingdom of Kongo Civil Wars, where internal divisions weakened the kingdom and accelerated foreign domination. * The fragmentation of the Oyo Empire collapse, where internal political instability contributed to its eventual downfall. * The partitioning of Africa during the Berlin Conference, which exploited disunity among African polities. * The tragedy of the Rwandan Genocide, where sustained divisive rhetoric escalated into catastrophic violence. These examples remind us that division is not merely a weakness—it is often a prelude to devastation. We are aware that some of the loudest divisive voices may be influenced—directly or indirectly—by hidden interests seeking to ignite conflict within Yorubaland. To such actors, we say clearly: You are playing a dangerous game with the future of your own people. This is 2026. The world is changing rapidly. Conflicts are rising globally, and only unified, self-aware peoples will survive and thrive in the emerging world order. A divided people is a vulnerable people—easily manipulated, easily replaced, and easily erased. Think Yoruba First calls on all Yoruba sons and daughters: * Reject divisive rhetoric * Uphold the dignity of our traditional institutions * Promote unity in thought, speech, and action * Think beyond parochial interests—Think Yoruba First Unity is not optional, it is existential.

it is telling how her people pretend not to see while she calls for the death of yorùbá children, but the second yorùbás fight back, they suddenly find their voices to scream tribalism. they are fine with the aggression, the response is what they hate to see.

This is 2026, this type of social engineering will no longer work.

People who are supporting someone that manipulate her JAMB result are trying to bash a first class student😂

The Fulani never CONQUERED Ilorin, they only TOPPLED it's leadership with a palace coup. Ilorin is Yorùbáland.

People that hate Awolowo and Yoruba in the 60’s, won’t love Tinubu or Yoruba in 2026. Learn or perish.

Have you seen a Yoruba woman from Togo today?

Hugo Ekitike has updated his Instagram burner bio to “Omo Olorun.” A Yoruba phrase meaning “Child of God” or “Son of God.” 🇳🇬🙏
