scholes0: It is also a test of patience and will. A child who'll eat his meat first is likely to engage in malfeasance, at least that is the general thinking. It shows that the child is impatient and has zero chill and disregard for established order. Asides the name thing, most other cultures in Nigeria practice the others. 5 Likes |

Yoruba have good culture. But the painful part of it is the Yorubas will loss all their cultures in years to come. Imagine A Yoruba Son born and brought up in Yoruba land cant speak Yoruba again. Our Language is dying. Most of my friends back in skull(varsity) then can talk and preach with Yoruba dialect, See the level of their standard in the Language, yet these guys Graduated with First class degree. eg Ganiyu in Math, Kafayat in Chemical, Abdul in Chem eng and Taiwo. Most had strong 2.1. Mothers of nowadays saying, combining Yoruba with English will ruin your Child?? .... The problem is 90% lie with our women/wives 8 Likes |

Its beautiful but thats not exclusive to the Yorubas more like an African thing except only the prostrating part. In medieval Igbo times, wives are to be scared of their husbands and must kneel to greet or serve them food until they come of age to become an ''Agadi Nwanyi'' at that stage they are even free to have a say in the community but before that they are wholly under their husbands 2 Likes |
