Home / News From Nigeria / Breaking News / Our elders say, “Bá ò rí àdán À fi òòdẹ̀ sẹbọ. “

Our elders say, “Bá ò rí àdán À fi òòdẹ̀ sẹbọ. “

Our elders say:
Bá ò rí àdán
À fi òòdẹ̀ sẹbọ.
Where there is no bat
We substitute with òòbẹ̀ sacrifice.
The Diaspora is the land of Oobe, without bat.

Africans in the diasporas should search for the bat; but where there is no bat, there is no need for panic;
They are free and released to use Oobe substitutes where there is no bat.
This interpretation applies in a broad metaphoric sense;
It has been the sustaining principle of life in Yoruba Orisa experience, as a dynamic, adaptive, and live way of life.

This is what our sages mean when they say:
Bá ò rí àdán
À fi òòbẹ̀ sẹbọ.
Where there is no bat
We substitute with oobe sacrifice.
