Today is Osun Festival day! Osun-Osogbo Grove is among the last of the sacred forests which usually adjoined the edges of most Yoruba cities before extensive urbanization. Osun-Osgogbo festival is celebrated every year. Osun- worshippers come from all walks of life to celebrate this day.


Do i need to tell you this?#thinks#hmmn let me just summarize it" Ọṣun State is an inland state in south-western Nigeria.

Its capital is Osogbo,that's where the festival is always celebrated and the osun river is located there. Osun State is bounded in the north by Kwara State, in the east partly by Ekiti State and partly by Ondo State, in the south by Ogun State and in the west by Oyo State.

The state's current governor is Rauf Aregbesola, who was declared as the winner of 2007 election by Appeal Court in Ibadan on 26 November 2010. Osun State is home to several of Nigeria's most famous landmarks"please am i still summarizing?ok let's go. So today is a special day where a lot of people come together to worship yeye osun,people in abroad,from other states do come for this festival...lenukan anybody that believes in yeye osun always come for this day to pray.

Awwwwww.... I miss, wish i was around to attend.

Omoluabi for life!

Wow gud to be second

Great!

Osun seems to be at the forefront of celebrating Yoruba culture and traditions...and I'm happy with what the governor is doing. Since Osun is the cradle of Yoruba civilisation. And apart from the Eyo festival in Lagos, it seems the rest don't really care about the traditions anymore.

Anyway, I'll like to see the Ijebu's celebrate the "Agemo" thing as well.

prem love: Wow gud to be second

Someone should kindly explain what the festival is about in great details. Yes, I know it is a festival of some sorth but what does it stand and represent?

Where is Pagan9ja when you need him?

Really, really wish I could attend o. I admire osun worshippers sha.i just admire the purity associated with the worship of yeye osun.

I remember when I served in osogbo in the year 2000 I visited the festival and also the shrine, i chatted with Susan wenger then the custodian.

I love osun people for up holding their traditions.

One day soon I will go to osogbo on s short holiday and will also visit places like, ojaoba, igbonna,erin ijesa,okefia,testing ground, sabo,technical,powerline,otaefun oresunbare etc

One love

@op,let Aregbesola catch you with this tag osun state instead of his acclaimed state of osun
by the way,did you see mermaid?

Idol worshippers. You are worshipping what cannot speak or hear. It has no power. God is powerful

ESULAALU: Really, really wish I could attend o. I admire osun worshippers sha.i just admire the purity associated with the worship of yeye osun.

ESULAALU ke!!!

nerodenero: ESULAALU ke!!!

Esulaalu Ogiri oko!!

nerodenero: ESULAALU ke!!!

esu laalu
ogiri oko
Ebora ti nje latopa
Olomi nile fejewe
olaso nile fi ...bora
...etc

As much as I want to identify with the state of Osun as Osogbo is my place of birth, I detest idolatory in all it's forms and presentation.

Looks like a day to get punny easily. All these festivities come with willing chicks for free punny donations. I will be there next year. Yes. with a trailer load of condoms.

@ OP,23th or 23rd...

Blood of Jesus!!! Which kind moniker be this?

it's all round fun

Oya where are those people claiming that Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola wants to 'islamize' Osun state. He declared holiday for traditional worshippers & identified with the funeral of a christian cleric, Obadare! His government is an all inclusive one, as it was not the vote of people of a particular religion that brought him into office. Ogbeni, go on soun!

If u knw you are a really Omoluabi,Omo Oduduwa.....jst press the 'LIKE' button and identify with Us...Darelee on Nairalee..

@op,let Aregbesola catch you with the tag osun state you used instead of his acclaimed state of osun.
Btw,did you see the mermaid?

You can't take it from Oshogbo, it's the centre of arts in Yorubaland, and Nigeria. Think of any stage actor, traditional poet, forklore, etc, think of Oshogbo. No wonder Wole Soyinka, Ola Rotimi, Michael Crowder, Yemi Ogunmola, Ulli Beir, etc, that could be said to be pioneers of modern arts, have connections with Oshogbo.

i was at the agemo festival last year, i followed the oyin kin koro and idebi agemo procession right from ago iwoye down to imodi mosan village in ijebu ode. It was fun and spiritually enlightening!

Who is your own god?

My brother,it is so disheartening to even see Christians,going to worship idol n going to seek blessings from demons and call it festival. That's how pple get possessed
