Unveiling Yoruba Legends: Aare Ona Kakanfo, Ilorin's Transformation, and More at Lede Yoruba!

Hey there, language enthusiasts!

Welcome back to another captivating week of language exploration at Lede Yoruba. Get ready to dive into intriguing stories and delve into the world of Yoruba language through our movie session. Let's jump right in!

Learn Yoruba with Stories and Current Issues: Our journey into significant names in Yoruba history continues in this week's Stories & Issues session. Brace yourselves as we unravel the tale of the brave Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yoruba land and the loss of Ilorin to the Fulanis. Discover the reasons behind the presence of an Emir as the head in Ilorin instead of an Oba. We'll delve into the historical events that shaped this transformation and explore the cultural dynamics that ensued. Join us to deepen your understanding of Yoruba history, traditions, and the impact they have had on the region.

Learn Yoruba with Movies: Lights, camera, and an all-Yoruba scene await us in our movie session as we review a captivating scene from "Atona 2." Picture this: the favorite staff member at work suddenly starts misbehaving, attributing her actions to spiritual issues. As her co-workers scramble to cover up her tracks and assist her, they desperately try to reach her through phone calls. However, their efforts seem to be in vain as they struggle to make contact. Get ready to enhance your vocabulary with phone call phrases and expand your knowledge of work-related terms. It's a scene that offers insights into workplace dynamics, communication challenges, and the intricacies of Yoruba language in everyday situations.

As usual, we will have the "Meet and Chat" sessions that have no agenda and allows you organically express your thoughts to each other.
