King Oduduwa is said to be the founding-father of the Yoruba Kingdom of Nigeria.He is said to have descended from heaven and his sons became the Kings of the other States of Western Nigeria(Yoruba land); some were titled : the Alaafin of Oyo-State,the Ooni of Ife and the other leaders of Yoruba land.
The Yoruba dance is a crucial aspect of Yoruba culture and the beating of the talking-drum is a pertinent factor for detecting and distinguishing what part of Western-Nigeria the particular Yoruba indigenous group/ ethnic tribe from any other culture in Nigeria. The Yoruba people are the original Aborigines of Western Nigeria and West-Africa (including countries such as Benin,Togo,Senegal,Cote D'Ivoire as well as the Volta and Greater Accra Regions of Ghana).
The Yoruba Cultural Dance Troupe were the Cynosure of all eyes on Sunday, the 9th of September (yesterday) between 16:00hours-23:00 hours GMT at the Eko Hotels and Suites,Ademola Adetokunbo Street in Victoria-Island, Lagos, Nigeria,West-Africa.
They thrilled their audience to satisfaction with series of exhilarating performances.The spectacle was so thrilling to me that I determined to write on it after interviewing my friend and companion Adeola Adeniji on the dance aspect of Yoruba Culture.
I have also determined to visit several Yoruba States in Nigeria in the month of December to sight -see their tourist attractions for myself, wouldn't you?Oh what a thrilling cultural experience I had last night!!!
