ENGLISH TRANSLATION
The 15th Aare Ona Kakanfo, Chief Gani Adams who was installed on Saturday, January, 13, 2018 expressed the concern that Yoruba culture and values are going into extinction. During his installation, he opined that though he was lucky that there is no war ravaging Yoruba nation right now, he will continue to work tirelessly to protect and preserve Yoruba culture and values.
Lagos State, a pace setter, has done it again. On Thursday, February 8, 2018, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, signed into law the bill for Yoruba Preservation and Promotion.
The Yoruba Blog Editorial Board commends Governor Akinwunmi Ambode and his cabinet for this laudable effort at saving Yoruba language and culture from extinction.
