Yoruba Language School of Laughter: From Pirates to Pranks!

Hey there, Lede Yoruba superstars!

Welcome back to another week of Yoruba learning madness and laughter! We've got a fantastic lineup of sessions for you this week, guaranteed to keep you entertained while mastering the beautiful Yoruba language. So, fasten your seatbelts and get ready for some quirky fun!

Learn with Stories and Issues - Wole Soyinka's Epic Adventures

In this wild and wacky session, we dive into the extraordinary life of Nigeria's Nobel Laurette, Wole Soyinka. Brace yourselves as we learn how to describe ourselves with as much charisma as Wole Soyinka himself. You'll be quoting Shakespeare in Yoruba in no time!

Using his recent BBC Yoruba interview, we will talk about his notorious pirate confraternity from his university days. Yes, you heard that right! Learn Yoruba while navigating the high seas of academia and mischief. But beware, because what started as a fun-loving pirate gang has apparently turned into a real menace to society today. Yikes! Get your cutlasses ready for some swashbuckling Yoruba adventures!

And just when you thought things couldn't get crazier, we'll explore how Wole Soyinka handled issues with Fulani herdsmen and their cattle. Learn the art of negotiation and diplomacy in Yoruba style. We promise it's going to be an unforgettable journey!

Learn with Movies - The Hilarious Hospitality Showdown

Lights, camera, Yoruba action! This session is all about exploring Yoruba hospitality through the lens of a side-splitting movie scene. We follow two first-time guests as they step into a Yoruba household and experience hospitality in full force.

While one guest gracefully accepts every dish offered with a smile, the other... well, let's just say they have some interesting reactions! Get ready to laugh out loud as we witness the Yoruba way of showing care and affection to guests, and how sometimes, it can lead to some hilarious misunderstandings.

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