USA Africa Dialogue Series - My Home My Pride by Olajide

Ondo My Home,my Pride
Where Goats Are Reared For Merriment,where Dogs Are For gods,and cocoa as revenue.
The Unique Symbolic Conundrum Of My Home:
I Eat Asun',i Don't Joke With Iyan And Obela Lasepo With Eangbe And Ipee',my Efo Riro Must Have Lukotokiti'
I Dance Ujo Obitun'and When I See Alaii(loi Aso),my Heart Rejoice.
I Was Born Into A Vry Rich Origin:a Land Where D Sun Is Like A Second Skin,it Never Sets And It Never Rises
A Land Where Lokili',obi And Gbanja Are gods'delicacies.
where our extremely high self esteem is mistaken as pride by foreigners.
I Come Frm A Land Distinguished By Serene Ambience,unparallel Elegance And Intense Beauty.
Where Prestige Is D Water We Drink
We Delight In Our Tribal Marks'omo Mula Meji Oju Seye'
I Am Not Only An African,not Just A Nigerian Or Just A Yoruba But An ORIGINAL UNADULTERATED ONDO PERSON. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1160103514063163&id=100001905763570
