YORUBA People From Sierra Leone And Gambia - AKU | Abinibi Hub

- In this video, i explain the history of the AKU or OKU people of Yoruba descent in Sierra Leone and Gambia. This group of people are said to be from Oyo Alaafin and Egbaland, known as Abeokuta in this modern day. I'm sure that other than the well-known Yoruba communities in Nigeria, Benin, and Togo, not many people are aware that there are active Yoruba cultures in the two West African nations of Sierra Leone and Gambia. Some of them are now financial ministers in Freetown and Gambia.

1:15 - To hear the Brother speak warms my heart. I need to learn to speak fluently - I understand it perfectly but can't hold a conversation
Please try to learn it. It is simple

I enjoy this a lot. It’s so educative
Thanks but the audio is not the best and I promise it will be better next time.
Yoruba is one of the greatest black tribe in the world. Yorubas are everywhere in the world. This is confirmed
Yes. You are right
❤❤❤
Thank you
Very nice to know the journey of our Yoruba cousins and their survival in the diaspora. I think we all will do well to connect with each other as best we can. Also think it's important to point out that those who had the biggest role in ending slavery and the slave trade were not british or american but our own Afrikan ancestors who fought them bravely even using our traditional rituals for protection in battle. A Yoruba brother wrote a book (among many other books) about misconceptions of the transatlantic slave trade and the fight against it. I recommend all Afrikans have this knowledge especially those who teach at the historical slave ports

Thanks for this recommendation
Very good comment family - I would like to point out, too, that the british/american didn't actually end slavery at all - they still have the Stolen Ones in their possession, haven't recompensed them, and still maintain very strong colonial bonds in so-called sub-Saharan Africa; primarily through the placement and maintenance of puppet governments and the military bases that preside over them. Even the end of slavery Proper in America was no kind of an act of mercy; the trade was threatening to tear the country apart due to slaves being much more profitable for one side of the country over the other. It had to take a new form otherwise the country would've been consumed by the internecine struggles of the ruling class of people
@TomiAdewoleAdetom is unfortunate almost our whole education system is controlled or heavily influenced by the west and their monopoly of HIStory
💯
Big man.
There are two different towns each called Abeokuta town in central Gambia and Jamaica
Yes but the Jamaica’s Abeokuta is just a park
Eseun sa ha won ti da irinajo omo Yoruba ru gan o but adupe lowo olodunmare
Yoruba is the only surviving tribe in Africa.
@@abinibihubother tribes will come for you now, especially those Swahili and Zulu people...But ko gbagidi, Olorun lo n sola.
Would've guessed the name Aku or oku may be from them thinking their family members would've thought they were dead when they were captured
Some people believe that on the other hand. But most of the Yoruba descendants are Aku eg, the once in Ghana too are Aku
Where can I buy this book???
This set was given to me by my dad. It’s a 1957 edition.
@@abinibihubwhat's the name of the book so we can search for it. Thanks for the info on what year of edition.
The new universal library. 2rd Edition Volume 12 and 13.
@@abinibihub God bless you, much thanks sir.
If you can trace the Yorubas in different nations then how are they connected to the Israelites that were taken into Atlantic slave trade.
Àlejò in creole is "big rich man" but in Yoruba it's a visitor. I was in Sierra Leone and I heard lots of Yorùbá spoken there but some means something else from what the Yoruba intended them to be😊
Thanks for your contribution sir.
Big ma or big man?
@@kth66 big man sorry
That's the sad part about oral history, it's unfulfilling to cultural continuity. Yoruba ancestors missed the opportunity to write stuff down. Maybe they dropped the conjugative version "Alejo Nla", "Alejo pataki".
They speak yoruba there? I never no know the are yoruba in gambia i think is mandinka country
They have Yoruba descendants
Okayyy 😍😍 yoruba are everywhere
They are Yoruba not Nigerian. Thanks.
Am a Yoruba man from Nigeria and am happy seeing people from other countries speaking same language with us❤
Yea. They are Yoruba and Sierra Leone
@abinibihub Yes they are Sierra leone, Gambia etc by Nationality and Yoruba by Culture and identity.
@oyadebijl9217 that’s the right word.
Stop this Yoruba people are ancient Israelites. God chosen
Proof it
Ti aba ti gbe awon ADELE wa wole ani lati pese bi awon to je omo Yoruba bi won ti le pada si ile Yoruba,
I don’t think they need to come back. We just need to let them know and we start a Yoruba tourism business in Nigeria. That will help us grow and it will encourage more people to our tribe.
They are already part of Sierra Leone root culture. In Nigerian, there are other Yoruba group that form other kingdoms and have become separate independent groups. (e.g Itsekiri, Edo, Delta and Kogi state) even in part of Northern Nigeria.
The Yoruba shared myth of origin with the Kanuri. Oral tradition in Borno has it that the “Yoruba and Kanuri were cousins. According to one mythology, the Yoruba were said to be outspoken while the Kanuri were calm people who detested discussing their private affairs in public, particularly those issues concerning their sexuality. The Kanuri thus referred to the Yoruba as “Khairuba".
