The Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi, who addressed a press tour of the tourists sites within the ancient city ahead of the Tourism Innovation and Development Innovation Conference (TIDA) slated for April 24, stated that without Ifa there would have been no google. The theme of the forthcoming conference is:” Impact of Sustainable Tourism Development and Marketing of Tourism Destinations on Host Communities”, and NAN reported that the ‘ Odu Ifa’ refers to the verses of the literary corpus that are usually consulted by people who believe in its efficacy before embarking on any project or activity.

The Ife Monarch who described ‘Ifa’ as a form divination which was all about sourcing for information and knowledge through traditional consultation, added that Google could be regarded as the modern way of sourcing for past information and what was likely to happen in the future too. According to him, ‘Ifa’ originated several thousands of years ago and is seen as the voice of the almighty God referred to as ” Orisa Oke” which is supreme to other lesser gods.The Ooni of Ife who is the custodian of the Yoruba culture and tradition, called on Nigerians to embrace traditional worships peculiar to their communities as he further maintained there would have been no google without Ifa. 


” Without ‘Ifa’, there could never have been the google, so the google is the modern-day version of ‘Ifa’. ‘Ifa’ is all about information, getting knowledge from the Almighty God. Whenever you search the google for information or knowledge, you are consulting ‘Ifa’; and without ‘Ifa’, there would not have been the google.”

Hmmm

Always talking nonsense

Science and juju are two different things entirly

Computers are based on binary code. Ifa is based on binary code.

Ifa predates Computers. The bigger question is if the inventors of computers got inspiration from Ifa or it was an idolated invention. I suspect the later.
