Ah! Assassin ke? That's extreme. Is it that bad? Our people are living in darkness without an awareness that they are. One cannot dishonor his/her ancestors and expect to live an honorable life. The current state of our people reflect that. The river is purest at its source. We are the first humans on Earth, so our knowledge of every element of the universe and Olodumare is purer than any other group that emerged after. Except that our people have allowed themselves to be be fooled by the "Europeans". And one thing I have come to conclusion on after delving into our spiritual ways, is that not many Yoruba can live up to the moral standard required by the Orisas, so they simply go along religions that offer them grace or ability to continously do bad. But irrespective of what one practice, karma is waiting, here or beyond.

Free yourself from foreign validation.

Get out of here with that foolishness...the GREAT PRIMORDIAL MOTHER'S have SPOKEN no MIXING

Image is important especially related to religion and spirituality. Image was and is used as an instrument of white supremacy. The image of whiteness as God was/is used to establish docility in the mind of the oppressed and to justify white supremacy. Why must Africans be reminded of how beautiful our culture is from somebody that is white? Why must whiteness validate the beauty of our culture? Why is whiteness an affirmation of the beauty of our culture? Whiteness is not the universal hallmark of beauty, intelligence, etc. Perhaps the African that posted this video has internalized white supremacy and indoctrination. The fact that humanity has its origins in Africa does not negate the impact of "whiteness" and its supportive structures of racism throughout the world. Whiteness and racism have to do with power, control, oppression, brutality and the dissemination of "whiteness" as "superior” throughout the world. It doesn't have anything to do with the genetic origins of humanity. Your response further illustrates my observation that she (a white priest) serves the purpose of validating the beauty of African culture and religion. Your statement about Africans running from their indigenous religions is an attempt to justify the legitimacy of the “white representative” of African religion. Sounds a lot like a sales pitch for white superiority. I am addressing "white image" as the strategic continuation of white dominance, indoctrination and supremacy. I am also addressing the internalization of the aforementioned. The origins of humanity and the happiness of the white priest (who represents African indigenous religion) are irrelevant distractions from the observations being revealed. Perhaps the emotional quality of knowing that humanity originated in Africa and that the "white priest is happy" is comforting. Nonetheless this clever offering of emotional comfort serves white supremacy, as it lulls the recipient of white supremacy to sleep, while spinning a narrative of innocence on the part of the white supremacist and their network of supporting mechanisms.

@@mywealth42 probably she is black descendant, because we are mixed, you can see here a lot of white people in Yoruba Culture because this is a black cultural heritage that is transmitted by parents to white and black children. Respect their choices, their families, respect Love!

You know what? Orisas don't care about your colour. Yorubas are just custodians of the heritage. Orisas are there for all humanity.

I think he was trying to let us understand that even the white embrace our culture and traditions Many of us have neglected our tradition

Thank you Yemi. Searched and searched for it.

Nobody cares John. I don't see people from African religions commenting on Christian videos like you do.

Idols like your pastors. Or better still Idols like your cement caste in catholic churches. Give us a break and dont be lost.

Why are you embarrassing yourself? So, you don't even understand Yoruba language. You need to be helped. Meaning of Orisa Ori-Sa. Ori: head; Sa: selected. In full, it mean the "Selected ones" or the "Chosen ones". Ori stand for destiny, so these were individuals whose destinies allowed them to achieve great things on Earth. Even Jesus Christ is an Orisa. Even you as an individual is an Orisa because your Ori itself is an Orisa. Better go seek knowledge and stop walking in darkness.

Come on don’t be ignorant, educate yourself

Why the hell are you here then... go to yo white jesus
