For the sake of clarification for those that do not practice West African Orisa Tradition, it does not matter the directions in which the owo eyo are stirred on the opon Ifa. They may even be stirred side to side. We understand that many have not had the opportunity to visit West Africa nor see West African Ifa being practiced as it is at the source. Hence, these short clips. Enjoy!

Yes, that is our very own Chief Aikulola Fawehinmi, the Gbawoniyi of Osogboland. He is of puerto rican parents and is one of the very few latinos that speaks Yoruba language fluently just as it is spoken in Yorubaland, Nigeria.

E se, mo dupe. Yoo se bee.

Yes, I remember. I pray we stay in contact. Not sure if you can receive text messages. But I believe I sent you one and wanted to know if you had received it.

Anyway, stay blessed. May Olorun Oba and all the Irunmole guide us to joy and fulfillment.

This Chief speaks Yoruba fluently more than most indigenous Yoruba folks I know. I am extremely impressed by his flency.

The Chief speaks Yoruba fluently more than most indigenous Yoruba folks I know.I am extremely impressed by his fluency. I am curious to know he developed this deep interest in Yoruba culture, particularly the knowledge of Ifa and the Orishas.

Was it of a particular influence or interest? Also what difficulty did he encoutered while trying to obtain this knowledge - was he perceived as an outsider?
