They are one and same. As Ijaiye and Oyo the same.. Wars is a terrible prize to pay in the Yoruba land, displacements, tempestuous rulers etc Yorubas in n most of West Africa, Sierra-leone, Liberia, Togo, Cameroon, Ghana, the Old Dahomey now Benin etc. Awori can be traced as far as ilorin. As there accents can evoke the binds that wrapped the Yoruba. Stay as one for the Yoruba land
You have to embedder yourself in the Yoruba culture, It might probably be a lifetime struggle. You probably begin to understanding when your parent or grand parents evoke your "Ori" (Oriki). Your spirit swell up, infrequently tears swell over you. You learn to chant your Ori (Oriki) .and families. Our diversity really embolden our difference and consolidate our interaction and unity. Currently neo-colonialism is our death bed.
Very talented man, I hope he is been appreciated especially when are a gradually losing our mother's tongue and culture. Long life Ajobiewe. I have always admired you since Feyikogbon(Ayodele Baba Ibeji) era's. I have been living in US for over 32 years but I still admired and love my youruba tradition especially when it comes to Oriki and Ewi. May God continue to give you long life and good health.
