I’m thoroughly, 100% Yoruba. No mix. My children are all Yoruba. Awon omomo mi gan must all be Yoruba. Of any tribe. No discrimination when it gets to that. Call me anything you want o. I don’t care.
Yesterday, a young beautiful lady came to my office, we got talking on her mission. She’s the representative of a big company in Nigeria wanting collaboration with our faculty. Of course, because it’s specifically with my department, she was sent to me. We got talking on the collaboration, I found her very amiable, pretty and quite smart. I then asked for her name, she dropped a Yoruba name! How excited I was. I immediately told her I don’t communicate with fellow Yoruba in English. She was taken aback. I said unless we are in an officious situation, which was not so as we were speaking. She outrightly announced she’s Yoruba but more Delta as her mum is Delta woman and she even speaks her mum’s language and English… I said Adedamola Adetayo postulations are precise!
I reckoned, minus 1. Why I would ensure my kids all marry Yoruba. Even Yoruba Cuba or Brazil, they must marry Yoruba.
