YORUBA People From Sierra Leone And Gambia - AKU | Abinibi Hub

In this video, i explain the history of the AKU or OKU people of Yoruba descent in Sierra Leone and Gambia. This group of people are said to be from Oyo Alaafin and Egbaland, known as Abeokuta in this modern day. I'm sure that other than the well-known Yoruba communities in Nigeria, Benin, and Togo, not many people are aware that there are active Yoruba cultures in the two West African nations of Sierra Leone and Gambia. Some of them are now financial ministers in Freetown and Gambia.

Very nice to know the journey of our Yoruba cousins and their survival in the diaspora. I think we all will do well to connect with each other as best we can. Also think it's important to point out that those who had the biggest role in ending slavery and the slave trade were not british or american but our own Afrikan ancestors who fought them bravely even using our traditional rituals for protection in battle. A Yoruba brother wrote a book (among many other books) about misconceptions of the transatlantic slave trade and the fight against it. I recommend all Afrikans have this knowledge especially those who teach at the historical slave ports kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKG8coBtp8hlZ9Esi=pPCA7Cz8U_G1-SSM

Thanks for this recommendation

Àlejò in creole is "big rich man" but in Yoruba it's a visitor. I was in Sierra Leone and I heard lots of Yorùbá spoken there but some means something else from what the Yoruba intended them to be😊

I don’t think they need to come back. We just need to let them know and we start a Yoruba tourism business in Nigeria. That will help us grow and it will encourage more people to our tribe.

[@lagosian123]

They are already part of Sierra Leone root culture. In Nigerian, there are other Yoruba group that form other kingdoms and have become separate independent groups. (e.g Itsekiri, Edo, Delta and Kogi state) even in part of Northern Nigeria. The Yoruba shared myth of origin with the Kanuri. Oral tradition in Borno has it that the “Yoruba and Kanuri were cousins. According to one mythology, the Yoruba were said to be outspoken while the Kanuri were calm people who detested discussing their private affairs in public, particularly those issues concerning their sexuality. The Kanuri thus referred to the Yoruba as “Khairuba".
