The method of testing and determination of Egbe taboos is slightly different from the conventional methods adopted for most other Orisa and Ifa. Apart from the food items which may be associated with specific people, there are other events and or observation which the new initiate has to watch out for and which may even be more dangerous than the taboos related to food or other consumables. Energy levels, sound or distortion in certain atmospheric factors may also be among taboos for the new initiate. For instance, the high-pitch noise produced by rubbing metals against metal or beating of gongs can be very dangerous to some Egbe devotees. 

Opinions, comments have been made here and there by the the Yoruba race concerning the issue of a Monarch, Oba Abdulrasheed Akanbi the "Oluwo of Iwo land" who recently announced to be address as an Emir rather than as an Oba.

Without taking much time, because itenifa is a broad topic which I will not delve into. I decided to come up with the 10 reasons why itenifa is important to you.  Note that the reasons are much than ten but I limit mine to just ten.

The issue of people getting scammed on the internet by some who claimed to be “babalawo”, “babalorisa” has been for years a trending issue in the Orisa world (Yoruba religion). Several people over the years and even till now had fallen victims of this shamming act because of their low knowledge and inexperience on the religion.
