Well I did no go through any of that process. I got to the town and interacted with the locals I met at the park and related to them my intention. One of them directed a bike man to take me to the site. There I met an aged man, by name Baba Bose whose cocoa and palm-tree farm is located close to the cave. He has just finished work for the day and was gathering his cocoa pods to go home. I greeted Baba Bose and told him of my intentions to find out about the cave and it's history. He was glad to see a young lady interested in the story of his town. So he was the one who related the story to me while I jotted down.
Baba Bose at the farm showing me around.
There is an orange tree also around the farm and I decided to take one and relax before leaving.
Cool. You appear quite intelligent. That's hard to find nowadays with other babes clicking on Instagram. Does your website have an email form? I want to be a regular reader. I don't do social media.

While the CJN suspension is a distraction and maybe a blow to the credibility of the national election, here is a clear and precise summary of the stories which I feel the average Nigerian should just be aware of. Plus a factual analysis of the situation and solution by SAN Femi Falana
Bro. This is very awesome. I didn't know there were people like you on YouTube, and trust me, I've been searching. I've always been inundated with videos of channels like Visual Politik and others who are analysing foreign event, you're the first person that I can see analysing Nigerian events with YouTube.
You're awesome. I'm also going to follow your page, and share your video on as many places as possible.

Almost everyone on social media voiced former Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun into reg. Some even asked that the President remove her to prove that he's truly fighting corruption. When the brilliant woman saw that she truly erred by submitting a fake NYSC Exemption certificate, she did the honourable thing. She tendered her resignation letter and left. She RESIGNED!
By that time, those of you ethnic jingoists didn't see Kemi as a Southerner. You screamed at her, cyber bullied her and even hurled abuses at her. Now it is the turn of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen, who itted himself that he 'forgot' to declare his domiciliary s which was loaded with £23,409, €49,971 and $391,401, including 55 houses undeclared, and by so doing, he breached the Code of Conduct as a Public officer and was suppose to have resigned straightaway if he had any modicum of honour, integrity and shame as the custodian of the Nigerian Law, but he didn't. Instead, he was doing everything to stall his trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal. All those times, you didn't call for his resignation the same way you did with Kemi, you didn't bully him to resign the way you bullied Kemi, you were instead urging him to stay on, you were drumming for him and some of you that were deceiving yourselves with your forming neutrality didn't say anything all this while too, you deliberately turned dumb. When it was first revealed a fortnight ago that the Chief Justice of Nigeria didn't declare his domiciliary s with dollars starched in it, all you were vituperating was that the President wanted to remove him because he's a southerner. You acted dumb on the offence he committed. Now that the CJN has been suspended, those of you fake neutralists are now crying foul. You're screaming that democracy is in danger. Can y'all see how nonsensically hypocritical you are? Your hypocrisy is legendary. Your hypocrisy stinks. You shouted and bullied Kemi Adeosun into resignation but aiding Onnoghen who can't explain how he got the foreign currencies starched in his domiciliary s which he didn't declare plus 55 houses. A whooping 55 houses.
Instead of the CJN to resign honourably and go clear himself, he was busy running from pillar to post buying injunctions to stop the case against him. Just a couple of days ago, another $630,000 and $800,000 was discovered in his separate domiciliary s again. Y'all pretended you didn't see the news, abi? Sensing that he could be suspended by the NJC, the CJN quickly suspend their meeting indefinitely. Why? So that he can stay on. You can imagine!
You asked Kemi to resign but Onnoghen who was selling justice for dollars and deliberately didn't declare those dollars in his domiciliary s including 55 houses should stay on, and he should be left alone.
Arrant nonsense.
PDP ARE ER OF CORRUPTION
We don't have an issue with Buhari trying to remove Onnoghen, it is the approach that is quite sickening. Now, imagine that instead of charging the CJN to CCT all of a sudden, Buhari had announced the accusations against the CJN and called on the Senate to have him removed according. Even if the Senate had not convened, he'll take the higher ground and public opinion would have been on his side.
All "neutralists" would have wailed that the CJN is honor bound to resign pending investigation by the Senate. If the Senate does not want to reconvene, Buhari's PR team could have played that as them being in collusion with the "corrupt" CJN.
If after all the outcry, the CJN doesn't step down, then Buhari can decide to use the CCT route and claim that he's acting in the interest of democracy and protection of our institutions. The whole nation would have ed him then, and he would have even swayed public opinion to his side. This is because on the one hand, he represents the rule of law and the fight against institutionalised corruption, while the CJN and his cohort would represent corruption. If the PDP decides to side with the CJN, they would also be tarnished in the image of corruption.
Like I told my friend in the past, Buhari might be doing good, but his Public Relations is very bad. No matter how good a product is, if the marketing is bad, you won't get sales.
The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara has weighed in on the recent suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Walter Nkanu Onnoghen by President Muhammadu Buhari.
Dogara, in a statement made available to PoliticsNGR, raised alarm that Nigeria's democracy was 'on fire'. The Statement read;
"With the unconstitutional suspension of the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) by President Muhammadu Buhari, the world has been served with notice that Nigeria is now a full-blown dictatorship. This did not come as a rude shock except to those that have been blind to the gradual but progressive erosion of democratic values in the polity as President Buhari’s Government has never hidden its disdain for the rule of law."
"We have watched in disbelief as the Government recklessly deploys institutional prerogatives; routinely flouts the rule of law; subverts and assaults democratic Institutions; refuses to accept opponents as legitimate; suppresses citizens civil liberties(especially those of opponents) and trample underfoot the media. In short, the Government’s tyrannical and authoritarian credentials are loathsomely legendary."
"No provision in Sections 157 and 292 of the 1999 Constitution as amended s the President in purporting to suspend the CJN or swearing in an acting CJN. The whole idea of a limited government is that the President’s powers is limited by law and it is ultra vires his powers to act in the absence of explicit legislative authorization. That is representative democracy at its best which our 1999 Constitution as amended guarantees."
"It is instructive to note that our Constitution does not contemplate or presupposes a situation whereby the Judiciary will have a suspended CJN and an acting CJN at the same time. Therefore, it is right to posit, as some have done that the President now has his own Chief Judge to do his bidding while Nigeria has a sitting CJN until he is removed in line with the provisions of the Constitution."
"The awfully crude annexation of the judiciary by the President in violation of his oath of office and the Constitution cannot be for any other reason except, as alleged by so many, to prepare the judiciary ahead of time for the purpose of conferring some aura of legitimacy to the contraption that the 2019 general elections may after all become."
"I therefore call on the President to that he has no better legacy to bequeath other than a good name: which cannot be achieved without honour, character and integrity. Honour and integrity demand that he upholds his oath of office by reversing this assault on our Constitution and following the manifestly clear and unambiguous constitutional procedure for the removal of the CJN if he must be removed. Anything short of this demeans all of us."
"To our citizens, we must now head the warning of the Irish lawyer cum orator, John Philpot Curran who said, “the condition upon which God had given liberty to man is eternal vigilance: which condition if he breaks, servitude is at once the consequences of his crime, and the punishment of his guilt”. Despotism can only prosper in Nigeria if good men and women do nothing."
"I also call on all lovers of freedom and democracy all over the world to rise to the occasion and demand of this Government and the President to halt the march to anarchy and bedlam: which dictatorship promotes. The world has an experience in this and it must not allow this unmitigated disaster on Nigeria before it acts to restore sanity."
"As of today, Nigeria is now in the wake of the 1933 Reichstag fire. Our democracy is on fire; ignited by the very people who swore to protect and defend it. That this fire must not convert the Chancellor to Fuhrer as it happened in in 1933 depends on our collective response and that of the international community. We must not bow our knees to dictatorship: not now, not ever again."

#WhatiF: Seun Kuti wins the first Grammy award as a Nigerian based artist?
Mr Seun Kuti, the son of Afrobeat legend, Fela Kuti has been nominated for the Grammy Awards.
Before his nomination this year, many other Nigerian based artists have been nominated in the past with none of them winning the prestigious award.
This is utter nonsense. Who cares whether or not he wins the Grammy awards The Grammy awards is an award for American musicians and people who have made an impact there. No one cares whether or not Seun Kuti wins there. A Nigerian or African award is more valuable because it means that he has had an impact on lives in Africa.
You people should stop with all these inferiority complex
It's your kind of people that sell off their daughters for one grain of rice
The lady clearly doesn't want the marriage with that man yet they forced her
I don't see how that marriage will be a joyful one for her in the years to come
P.S. It's not "our culture"... it's "Your" culture
Let me make it clear to you how the marriage could be a joyful one for her in future... With this kind of marriage, the emotional attachment starts at rockbottom. Meaning that she doesn't expect much from it. In essence, this means that when good things happen to the marriage, she'll be quite taken aback and would really appreciate it.
Compare this to a "free marriage" where the lady expects sunshines and rainbows. Only to discover that marriage is hard work and not all it appears to be. Like the saying goes, all women want a wedding, not a marriage.
Like I've already stated, a good case in point is the divorce rate in the west. Also note that about 70 percent of divorces are initiated by women. That's to tell you how happy they have become in their "free marriages".
I'm actually not a Northerner, so it's not my culture per se. I just like to view things from the perspective of the other side.
Finally, I see you're a lady... if you've been in the dating game for a while, you'll know that it comes with a lot of baggage and heartbreaks that no one expects. This applies to both male and female participants of the dating game.
I know I spoke in high-level language, but I can't really break it down for you. If you are having a hard time, do check the dictionary. Alternatively, you can ask me for further explanations on words/phrases that are causing you difficulty. Thanks.
I think we should all be careful before we condemn arranged marriages. The other alternative to arranged marriages is for boys and girls to strike out on their own in order to find true love. However, a necessary side effect of this is the dating game filled with players, heartbreaks and the friendzone. In the end, it leaves most people involved in the dating game heartbroken, manipulating, and scheming in order to get love.
On the other hand, while arranged marriages might not have love in the beginning, over time the husband and wife in an arranged marriage can develop their love for each other. Besides, this is the status quo considering that even when people marry the man/woman of their dreams, the love eventually whittles down and marriage becomes a grudging duty that people have to put up with.
A good case in point is the high rate of divorce in the Western world and the sadness it brings to everyone involved, including the man, woman and children.
In conclusion, let's think deep and hard before we jump to condemning our culture.
Well, his istrative responsibilities are small, he has total control of his country.
So he'll naturally do well.
Nah. It's not by size. There are other smaller countries that are doing nonsense. Case in point, Burundi is small and is Rwanda's neighbour, but Nkuruziza is doing nonsense.
If the stories really happened or not only God knows for sure 100%.
But my question is: if the story was that 2000 years ago, one 15 years old Calabar or Ibadan girl got pregnant without having sex AND gave birth to a messiah, would Africans believe it? How likely is it that Europeans (who claim to only believe in science) and others will believe that story?
From the prevailing world religions today, why did none originate from Africa?
Is it that, like all the good ideas & resources we have had in Africa, we just refused to package our traditional religion attractively to interest others without African ancestry abroad?
Take for example, many Hollywood stars are now Buddhists or practice some Eastern religion. People across the world now eat "sushi" (raw fish Japanese food). Ethiopia has an old cuisine of raw meat. But it never caught on or interest other people.
Las las if you package your ideas, philosophy, beliefs & way of life attractively, persist & persevere with it, soon enough others will sit up and notice you with respect.
The Queen of England has visited Hindu temples, covering her hair & removing her shoes. Hindus of India have more gods than Africa as a whole. Offering food to them in shrines like a babalawo or dibia would do. But nobody dare call Hindus pagans today.
That is reality. Call your fine clothe a rag and others will help you to use it wipe the floor like a rag.

I once believed that Education is the key!!!
Bro, education is still the key, it's school that isn't the key. Education is life long, you should consciously take steps to learn, even after leaving school. Imagine how hard life would be for you if you weren't literate.

Your blog never loads. Ever. I don't know why you can't give the link to the direct twitter thread. All these bloggers looking for traffic. And the news is even clickbait sef. Dude just rehearsed some words in the other languages, I thought he was multi-lingual. mtcheeeew.
Only data matters and the truth is very horrible. Blog Spot is free.
You can get cheap WordPress hosting for about 5000 naira per year. Get a free WordPress theme. It's better than . Bro, books are judged by their cover. When people see your website and it looks spammy and sloppy, they'll think you're a scammer and a fraud. Packaging is important.
Lol. Bro, some advice. Your website design is very off. Use WordPress not . Get a good design. From the way your site appears, it screams CONSPIRACY THEORIST. You might be making sense O, but appearance matters.
After reading more about Prof. Oluwole in the past few days, I told my wife that I think I should go and take a course in philosophy.
Lol. You don't have to take a course though. I engage in intellectial pursuits as a hobby. I read whatever I can. Do you know where I can get her essay on Democracy and Mediocrity? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
No one can take the glory of Africans. We are the wooly haired sons of God that the Bible calls Christ. We are the Asian return of the dragon. Africans have reptile DNA and the other straight haired human hybrids have monkey DNA. We have been living all over the Earth for millions of years. Sudan/Nubia was the capital of our world empire. My family bloodline the Washingtons descend from the Moorish royalty of Europe. King George was Moor and George Washington was his cousin. There is much more yet the wooly haired been here for a long time.
Lol. Is this Nation of Islam stuff? Bro, you're better than this na.
They speak of Mamluks rulers ruling all of North, East Africa and the Middle East from 12th century to 1517. Oduduwa whether he came from Egypt or Mecca which is next door to Egypt, would have confronted these rulers. The Mamluks although under Islamic empire were depised because they were essentially Christians. Mamluks were slave soldiers trained from small boys that were homosexual sodomites. Muslims didn't enslave Muslims. Funny because the Manifest Destiny of Roman Christians only treated indigenous people as animals and enslaved them. The Mamluks were put in a caste higher than the indigenous Egyptians who were Africans. This everywhere throughout the Islamic Empire. The Africans allied with Arabs to get rid of the Romans in 749 AD only to be turned upon by the Arabs several centuries later.
You see I analyze data. I'm not out to prove Africans built the pyramids I've already accepted that as undisputed fact. Oduduwa brought religion of Egypt to Ife. It was blended with the indigenous Obatala bloodline Ogboni faith. Ogboni is old and ancient it is Ogboni Confraternity that is recent, when Yorubas started becoming Freemasons. Freemasonry started in Egypt and the oldest lodge is in Ethiopia. Ethiopia and Egypt are Greek names. I just showed that outsiders have been ruling all of North, East and Middle East Africa since the Persians conquered them.
Analyze data don't just repeat it. Some Yorubas want an Islamic origin for Oduduwa and some want a Christian. None it's true. Egyptian philosophy called Kemetic science is the most powerful science on Earth. You can find it all over the world as people spread it everywhere when Africans migrated out. The Olmecs of Mexico are Sudanese, the first dynasty Chang of China are Africans. The first Russians were Africans, Peter the Great was a Moor.
Ase
Lol. The bolded part though. Take it easy (We wuz Kangz) It may be true, but you haven't brought scholarly or textual evidence.
As for the wikipedia you mentioned, can you provide links? That would serve as evidence.
Her truly remarkable professional career and achievements reveal her enviable contributions to the enterprise of philosophizing in Africa. An incredible scholar by all standards, Oluwole was one of the most prominent Nigerian philosophers in the world. The breadth and the depth of her scholarship are not only impressive but also widely acknowledged. In this regard, she wa a recipient of many awards and honours from institutions in Africa and beyond. She received the prize of Bundesstudentenring, West 1965-1967, University of Lagos Postgraduate scholarship award 1971-1972; she was the first recipient of Jean Harris award for outstanding contribution to the progress and development of women in society by Rotary International in 1997; Emotan award for women achievers, 2001. It is not an overemphasis that she has contributed relentlessly to the course of women, and humanity in general.
She authored books on some extant issues in African Philosophy. Being the first female professor of African philosophy in Nigeria, the Philosopher-Queen is a household name in the enterprise of Philosophy in Nigeria. With seven books (both authored and edited), nine book chapters, sixteen journal articles and some book reviews to her name, Oluwole is wizardly in Yoruba language. Not many Nigerian scholars of our time can lay claim to such contributions to scholarship of the first order. Oluwole’s scholarly productivity is phenomenal, especially when viewed from the Nigerian academic environment which is frustrating enough to academic proclivities because of lack of enabling facilities. Being a philosopher is her profession; writing, publishing and speaking at invited public gatherings are her ions; and living up to what she preaches is a habit.

Awesome bro. I would check out some of her articles that interest me. I also tried checking for Socrates and Orunmila, but it isn't available online. Do you know where I can get it online?
Oduduwa came to Ife during the 12th century said to be an exiled Prince. Prince Oduduwa came from an Arab ruling land and was said to be a revolutionary. Oduduwa had a huge following and was teaching Ifa, the is the binary coded philosophy of Kemet. The Sunni ruling Mamluks outlawed traditional African religion like they do today. The Mamluks were a slave class raised above the indigenous East Africans. They sodomite pedophile aristicated warriors and rulers like the Romans and Greeks. Egypt was really a desolate place now for about a 1000 some years despite its technology.
Oduduwa brought Kemetic philosophy to Ife.
The map below shows all the lands ruled by the Mamluks. All this Egypt.
Okay. You're telling me this. But what's your evidence? For all I know, you could have formulated this off the top of your head. What book(s) did you read to get this information?
No she wasn't comparing she teaching how Yoruba philosophy is unique and doesn't descend from Socrates.
Socrates was a pedophile and so was his disciple Aristole. Greece was a sodomite pedophile culture and much of their philosophy was a foolosophy. Greeks guessed at many things, after learning in Egypt many Greeks struggled to expound upon what they were given by the Africans. Philosophy in Africa means all data known of every subject as a complete whole unit.
Ifa is the mother of philosophy. It's binary code mathematics is the basis of computers using ones and zeroes to store knowledge, history and all data. Ifa turns the human brain into a computer. Binary multiplication, division, adding and subtracting can be done in the head no need for pen and paper. Ifa is more than the Bible in content. Ifa put into books it would fill a small library. Elders start at 5 learning just the divination portion of Ifa yet it's not divination it's the philosophy of everything the Yorubas have experienced and stored for thousands of years.
Nigeria is Kemet of the West. The Sun rising in the end times in West Africa like it did in East Africa. Oduduwa was simply returning to the source after their Eastern civilization which is the Nile collapsed.

The Grammy awards is an award for American musicians and people who have made an impact there. No one cares whether or not Seun Kuti wins there. A Nigerian or African award is more valuable because it means that he has had an impact on lives in Africa.
