If we were all like Yoruba people on Earth, there would be no war, fight, hatred, and animosity. Everywhere will just be cruise, party, fun, and enjoyment. Yoruba people are the only ethnicity on Earth that I have seen give their children a name like enjoyment. Yes! When you see a Yoruba person bearing Jaiye, that name is the opposite of Abiku. It is a name encouraging the child to live and chop life. That is their mentality.
That is why everyone in Nigeria naturally gravitates to Lagos and the Southwest. To go and Jaiye! I live in America. Do you know how other Africans send invites to their parties? They add the following:
‘The Nigerians will be there!’
Go ahead, Google it. By Nigerians, they mean Yoruba! Anywhere they are on planet Earth, people just love them. Even their language is fun to listen to. A Yoruba person can be speaking (not singing), and you will just feel like dancing. They don’t take life too seriously. If a Yoruba dies, there is a party. If a Yoruba lives, there is a party. Ariya, miliki and igbadun is their way of life. I guarantee you, you can’t listen to Shinamania, Destiny by King Sunny Ade, Miliki Express by Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey, Mo So Rire by Father and Son Dairo, Dami Duro by Davido, etc., and not be immediately lifted in spirit.
May we all learn to see the brighter side of life as the Yoruba. In Yeshua’s Name.
