ADULTERY: YORUBA'S VIEW

PART 1 THE NOTION OF ADULTERY IN YORUBA CULTURE Adultery is not only being focused on by religion and the society alone, it also exists in African culture, and this is why our focus in this chapter will be on the notion of adultery in Yoruba culture. Also, we were able to show the difference between polygamy and adultery, this is done because we do not want people to consider polygamy an adultery act, whereas it is being considered a type of marriage in most African countries, even though it is not common in some western countries, but it is common in Yoruba culture.

I used Juju during my playing days-Taribo West

Former Super Eagles defence strongman, Taribo West made a shocking confession recently. He revealed that during his football career days he used juju to play on the field. The ex-footballer turned pastor said he had a manager from Senegal and his manager would take him to several native doctors in Senegal where they will cut his tongue, hands and legs and then cook it. “I spend most of my time at home meditating. All I want to do is to keep spreading the gospel. In my own little way, I have been into evangelisation visiting places like Ughelli and within the Orile community, Ajegunle and so on. God has been kind during these visits to preach the gospel to people who are yet to receive Christ. We believe He will take us globally very soon,” Taribo said. It will be recalled that Super Eagles attacker, Brown Ideye came out and advised African players to stop using juju to enhance their playing prowess. “Your background experience counts. We turn to God to give us dire...
