The African tribe that offers sex to Visitors and Swap Partners.

Image
  The African tribe that offers sex to Visitors and Swap Partners. The wife swapping tradition has existed for centuries amongst the Ovahimba and Ovazemba tribes of Northern Namibia. According to the demands of this culture, a husband can allow his wife to sleep with any male visitor that chooses to spend the night in their home. When a male visitor comes with his own wife, he can reach an agreement to exchange wives for the night. Within the Northern Namibian tribes, the men are the heads of their families and they possess more rights than the women. These men make most of the decisions, while the women are left with the tasks of procreating, feeding and taking care of the home. The women see nothing with this tradition and do not mind giving themselves to other men. Some women also offer girlfriends to their husbands, if there is a need to. They consider it to be a sign of friendship. The people continued to practise it because of the belief that it strengthens friendships and re...

  Why I resigned From My Job As A Pastor In Winners Chapel And Became A Babalawo- Nigerian Man, Yinka Oyewusi Shares His Story. Let’s read him: In my formative years, we were three fiery brothers practising Christianity in Iwo town -- two of us very poor, but with strange will to survive. After secondary education and with nothing to live for, first among us was a talented beggar. As the second guy, my mother is late, and my father's whereabout was unknown. So, the first guy and I were living in one of the three houses I knew belonged to the father of the 3rd guy, but the father didn't care about the 3rd guy, though. The first guy is a genius in gathering monies through request for "urgent 2k" -- we lived on this for years. Miraculously, I and the 3rd guy obtained degrees in science and administration respectively; the first guy obtained a degree in theology and became the chaplain of a university Chapel. But those days as a fiery Christian, I lost 40% of my hearing....

OBATALA VISITS WOLE SOYINKA AT AGE 83

Image
  *OBATALA VISITS WOLE SOYINKA AT AGE 83.* I gave a public lecture at the Schomburg Centre, Harlem, New York in the late 90s and the subject of homosexuality was addressed by me, and one theatre director accused me of intolerance. The sum of my submission was, “The Yoruba do not have the word ‘homosexual’ in their vocabulary and by this reasoning, homosexuality is alien to the Yoruba nature and origin.” Someone shouted, “Did the Yoruba have a word for television? Words are created with new things. Yoruba language would soon create the Yoruba word for homosexuality.” The theatre director who bombarded me with emails thereafter, accused me of being intolerant of gay persons. I disconnected him from my email. Was this an act of tolerance? The Iyanifa of New York sent me back to Obatala, and I came home to Abeokuta. The Obatala Priest told me in a village: “If you must understand the worship of Obatala, remember this: It is tougher than Christianity. You must say goodbye to anger. You ...

OJUELEGBA: A BRIEF HISTORY

Image
  OJUELEGBA: A BRIEF HISTORY Long time ago, before the presence of civilization and the british bombardment of Lagos in 1851, the area known today as Ojuelegba was a forest and the consecrated site for the worship of Ẹ̀shù Elegbua also referred to as Légba among the Fon people of Benin Republic, Exu in Brazil, Echu-Elegua in Cuba, Papa Legba in Haiti and to some African-American as Papa La Bas. It was right under the present-day Ojuelegba bridge that the Aworis who were said to be the first inhabitant of this area used to worship láàlu ogiri òkò - the deity in charge of orderliness and the divine enforcer of natural and divine laws. The stone which was of lateritic earth with cowrie shells marking the eyes and mouth of Eshu which worshippers pour daily offerings to appease the god has now paved way for urbanization, the shrine has been moved several times before it was finally settled at its current location, a few steps (to the South) away from the present Ojuelegba roundabout. It...

Who is the real Arugbo ojo

Image
  ARÚGBÓ ỌJỌ́ !!! WHO IS THE ANCIENT OF DAYS(ARÚGBÓ ỌJỌ́)? Is yahweh or maybe Jesus his son really the ancient of days(arúgbó ọjọ́)? Assuredly not! That was a pilfered epithet cum panegyric wrongfully used by Christians today to exalt their God. An eulogy that was not even meant for God, the most high but a lesser being! Albeit, we(traditionalist) wouldn't deny the Christians the usage of such epithet to eulogize their Jewish imported deity, but we seek whenceforth to inform you that we shall consider the usage as a SACRILEGE if such cognomen is used for Olódùmarè. OBATALA is the arúgbó ojo(ancient of days), the king of kings and the lord of lords. Obàtálá got his ditto moniker from the story of his inception and the creation of human kind. It was believed that Obàtálá was the first òrìṣà and so the oldest, who led other òrìṣà to the planet earth. His continuum existence as immortal made his adherents betell him as arúgbó ọjọ́(ancient of days), olú aiye (Lord of the earth), bàbà ar...

Amitabh Bacchan says...Be HUMBLE, it costs nothing.

  Amitabh Bacchan says..."At the peak of my career, I was once travelling by plane. The passenger next to me was an elderly gentleman dressed in a simple shirt and pants. He appeared to be middle class, and well educated. Other passengers perhaps recognising who I was, but this gentleman appeared to be unconcerned of my presence... He was reading his paper, looking out of the window, and when tea was served, he sipped it quietly. Trying to strike a conversation with him I smiled. The man courteously smiled back and said 'Hello'. We got talking and I brought up the subject of cinema and movies and asked, 'Do you watch films?' The man replied, 'Oh, very few. I did see one many years ago.' I mentioned that I worked in the movie industry. The man replied.." Oh, that’s nice. What do you do?' I replied, 'I am an actor ' The man nodded, 'Oh, that's wonderful!' And that was it... When we landed, I held out my hand and said, " It wa...
