Olumo Odunayo:

The Minister of Education last month declared cut-off marks for admission into universities in the country from the last Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination. But some universities such as the Federal University of Technology, Akure, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, University of Lagos, still disobey the order. This appears to ridicule the minister and should have been handled better. I am now using this medium to appeal to Mr. President to find a solution to this matter before it gets too late because some universities have started conducting post-UTME tests for candidates that applied for their programmes.

Iyalorisa Egbelade Omitonade Ifawemimo is a Yemoja worshipper and a traditionalist. The 22-year-old, who is a 300 level student at the Department of Economics, Obafemi Awolowo University, shares in this interview with Doyin Adeoye, her religious beliefs and passion for the indigenous African religion, among other things.

My religion and how it started
I was born into the African traditional religion. My father, Chief Olukunmi Omikemi Egbelade is a Yemoja Chief priest as well as a Babalawo. He is the president of all Onisese in Oyo State and although we were not allowed to really get involved when we were young, I was later gradually tutored in it as I grew up, when my parents realised I had passion for it. I practise the African traditional religion and I am a Yemoja worshipper, as well as a Yemoja priestess.  I’m also versed in Ifa and other Orisas, besides Yemoja. I was initiated into the Yemoja religion in 2007 and that was when it fully became my passion.
