Oyinbo man spoke about Yoruba gods
Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that an old video shared by Yoòbá Media on Instagram has shown the moment a white man who practices Ifa as a religion spoke to many Yorubas during an event.
In the clip, the man surprisingly spoke fluent Yoruba language as he told people about his experiences in Nigeria as an Ifa priest.
When a person asked him how long it takes to become a priest, the white man revealed that the period is relative to different individuals.
