| OmoEkofa (Young girl who studies Ifa Philosophy) |
 |
11 year young Awo of Babalawo of northern Oyo
State, Nigeria, reciting Ifa poetry from the
Ifa Corpus (students start studying at 4yrs
old). It is worthy to note that Ifa is still
very much an Ancient Oral poetic form (very
little has been written to date) of restating
Ifa's stanzas of historical, philosophical,
practical, curative and healing messages, as
they have been stated and restanted for
thousands of years among the Yoruba in West
Africa and has, recently, as a result of the
Maafa (transatlantic slave trade) of enslaved
Yoruba people found in the diaspora namely
Cuba, Brazil, Trinidad, Surinam, Guyana,
Haiti and now throughout most of the world.
The root was among the Yoruba of West Africa,
these ancient stories spoken in poetic form
often using parables, was the root of African
proverbs common today, that would deliver
messages onto themsleves. It is also very
notable that as said Ifa is an Oral art form
and is taught to children orally and retain
into memory, this girl is only 11 years old
and can recite many stories from memory, also
to note that she is a female and to dispel
the myth (in the diaspora) that girls do not
study Ifa, but shown here she is orally
reciting Ifa stanzas and the response from
others is to also learn that Ifa stanza.
