USA Africa Dialogue Series - OluKayode oyediran and the rebirth of Yoruba

Carlo Rovelli  a Professor  of theoretical physics world renowned had stated  in the march 13 2021 edition  of the  new scientist  that things exist only in relation  to other things.he wrote this on Quantum  mechanics. L wrote to tell him that we have long known that in Africa  as Ubuntu meaning a person is a person through another person..there may be other things in our culture  and religions re discovered  or yet to be discovered  by  scientists like rovelli

Quantum  physics  which is said to be non sensical by physicists explains  very well the behaviour of matter at the atomic level and its the heart ofvthe digital economy 

In the same vein isese might  ,by the adherents  of other faith  be non sensical and embarsssing but at a fundamental level it impacts very positively and patently on those who practice it

Before the arrival  of foreigners  on yotuba soil the yorubas had   igblo oba .the kings forest.igbo dudu  the dangerious forest,igbo olorun. Gods forest but yorubas were told these were all nonsese so the forest were cut down for furniture and construction   one of  the major reasons for climate crisis today  the wòrld should listen to the yorubas  who have a propensity for livin in armony with nature

Ìsese calls for return to the spirit it calls for spiritual  rejuvenation. Spiritual rebirth. It is pragmatism  in usa .empiricism in Europe  but spirituality in Yoruba world the spirit dying or dead then the environment decays along with it.the spirit  dead or ding gives rise to political decay.

,social decay,economic ,decay,infrastructural decay and more so the need to return to the spirit. For the rebirth  and the re awakening  of the yoruba as long sdvzncdd by Professor  olukayode oyediran  in his book titled He leadeth  me.it included  a catalogue  of woes  in Yoruba world and by yorubas.
