ENGLISH TRANSLATION

The Yoruba adage that “Whoever has not been made glad by God that is licking sugar will die of pile” is in support of the research that showed that most people drink and eat more fatty, salty and sugary food when they are depressed. Unfortunately, instead of coming out of depression, bad diet containing too much fat, salt and sugar will only add more health complications such as pile, hypertension and a host of other diseases.

Tasty food or alcoholic drink would not lift anyone out of depression or gladness of spirit, but only positive attitude and trust in God.

Happy Easter, do not over feed, Jesus died for the sinners and the poor, as a result if you have, remember those who have none. Youruba said “Eating together is not sweet, if one person is left out”.

Out of the thirty-six States in Nigeria, six are in Yoruba land altogether. These States are: Lagos – State capital Ikeja; Ekiti – State capital at Ado-Ekiti; Ogun – State capital at Abeokuta; Ondo – State capital at Akure; Osun – State capital at Osogbo and Oyo with the State capital at Ibadan.

In the developed world/abroad, if a person has a pending law suit in the Court, or has once been in prison, or has behaved in a disgraceful manner, such person cannot vie for a Political position, but even if such a person has no sense of shame, and decided to vie, many of the masses would not vote for such. This is not the case in Nigeria, because a prisoner, fraudster, thief, killers/assassin etc with their ill-gotten wealth/money could vie for political position since they know they could win through fraudulent means.

The people of Osun State reflected the application of the Yoruba proverb that said “It is by means of their numbers that Locusts could tear down a tree” during the Governorship Election held on Saturday, ninth August, 2014, when they defied the Federal might as Soldiers and armoured tanks were drafted to intimidate the people. They trooped out in their numbers to vote and protect their votes to re-elect Governor (Mr) Rauf Aregbesola.
