Rest in peace Araba



Death! Death!! Death!!!

Iku they say does not know those that respect those respect is due to
Iku neither know the young the young nor the old. It does not care to hit you with his Kumo (baton) while you sleeping. An inevitable Ajogun that nobody can escape its punishment.
This powerful Ajogun has done it again by striking the Araba of Odi-Olowo and the Oluwo of Ijo Orunmila Ato Ebute-metta with his Kumo.


Baba left us yesterday which happens to be Ose-Ifa 08-02-2017 at around 10:00pm. Death we all know we cannot escape, death we all know we have to pay its price one day. Baba for every moments I have spent with you on earth it has been a memorable and unforgettable moments. You have been a mentor not only to me but to so many people, a role model, an icon and a self made personality. You have indeed been true leaders to your followers. As the Oluwo of Ijo Orunmila Ato, you have wanted nothing but the best for them all plus a great father to your children and to your grand-children as well. It saddens our heart to hear your death but on the other hand, we are glad because you’ve lived a life everyone ought to live and you deserved to be celebrated. Baba, you have left a legacy which your children, grand-children, great-grand children and the entire generation of this family will have to keep.

Rest in peace grandfather. We will indeed miss you..

Your grand-son

Almost every practitioner, if not all have had Ifa initiation, even those who are not practitioners find themselves initiated for a convinced reason known to them. However, some IFA initiates raise their respective voice, lamenting​ why their initiation is futile, no improvement, no progress or whatsoever of any sorts.  Despite the assurance of being wealthy (or any desire) after initiation, everything seems to remain stagnant, some even went from bad to worse. Some even have abandoned Ifa because of this unfortunate reasons. While experiencing​ this, numerous questions pop up in mind; among are: why is this itẹlodu not effective? why is IFA initiation overrated? Why are my problems not solved yet despite what IFA
