Aroko - Yoruba Parabolic Message

Aroko was a way by which pre-literate Yorubas used to send message over long distance in the olden days. It is done by sending some symbolic items to the person for whom the message was meant through a third party; and the message would be understood by the receiver.

For an instance in December 1854, the Awujale of Ijebu sent such a parabolic message to Rev. David Hinderer who was then resident in Ibadan. The Aroko he sent to him was this: ten cowries strung together and a seed of the orange fruit. The meaning of the Aroko is this: come, it is well. Can you spot the correlation between the items sent and its meaning?

The Unforgotten Yoruba

Funmilayo Ransome Kuti born 25 October 1900 in Abeokuta, she was a prominent Yoruba woman and an anti-colonial activist, a teacher and a politician. She was described by many as the doyen of women's rights in Nigeria and the Mother of Nigeria. She founded and was the leader of Abeokuta Women's Union on a campaign against arbitrary taxation of women, a pressure group that had over 20,000 membership, the struggle which led to the abdication of the Egba King Oba Ademola II in 1949.

The Concept Of Marriage In Yorubaland

Marriage is one of the oldest institutions among Yoruba, it marks the end and the beginning of a new era between two different individuals, who agreed to live together, and through their union creates everlasting friendship between homes of their birth.

In times past, marriage matters were never left in the hands of prospective couples, rather, families’ affairs. Several steps were required before marriage could be consummated, although, things have really changed; yet, some of these steps are still valid and observed in a marriage journey by couples, because of their cultural relevance.
