The History of Yoruba Land: Recent Episodes
Olukayode Adesanya
The definitive podcast covering the history of the Yoruba nation, from its legendary inception in the tales of its semi-mythical founder, Oduduwa, to the integral role of its peoples in the establishment of the modern state of Nigeria.
Like Romulus and Remus of Roman fame, Queen Dido of Carthage, or Genghis Khan of the Mongols, the Yoruba also believe they all share a common heroic ancestor in the legendary Odùduwà of Ilé-Ifẹ̀. Join me this week, as we explore the earliest origins of this enigmatic figure, whose legend is so pivotal to Yoruba identity.
