Story

About the project:

Our black history and heritage is being overtaken by the cultures of foreign lands because we have forgotten to tell our stories in ways that the present world would appreciate, we have as well failed to preserve our history which has led to the adulteration of the content in our historical heritage,

It saddens my heart when I see young people tell the stories of foreign gods, whilst their own native gods are but alien to them.

According to research and findings it has been discovered and established that there are a number of cultures and languages that has gone into extinction in the world and have totally been forgotten.

Cultural heritages like ours needs means through which they can be preserved and taught/passed to the present and future generations using the tools of storytelling available for the 21st century.

(“odo ti o ba gbagbe orisun re ni yo gbe”) a people who don’t know or remember their roots and origin would lose their values and essence for living.

aims and objective

Our project is targeted at conserving the heritage of the Yoruba race and telling the story of the Yoruba’s and all that the race and people entail to the world using 21st technology to enhance the acceptance of the culture to both the present and future generations. It is to reveal to the world the rich cultural heritage of the Yoruba’s by telling the story of the.

In the words of our fathers “asa ti a ba fipamo fun omo ni o ma parun”.
