A Discussion Of 250 Deep Yoruba (African) Proverbs

At a time when Yoruba language is somewhat relegated to the background because of continuously reducing usage at its base, there is the risk that the knowledge and wisdom kept within its constituent parts will be dragged down with it, and will therefore not be available to the younger generation who also need it for their mental and human development. There should be a change in that trend.
In this book, Alaba J. Babalola discusses 250 deep Yoruba proverbs using English language as the major medium of communication to draw attention of the new generation of Yoruba men and women, and their friends around the world, to the profound traditional wisdom of the Yoruba elders in antiquity, which has been proven to be very useful in raising well-behaved and cultured individuals in the Yoruba society over the years.
