We witnessed today
And tomorrow
Even day after tomorrow
Who is her siblings.....
Perhaps it is going to be good
Perhaps it will not be
No one can predict.....
Ifa declaration for Ọ̀rúnmìlà
He was going to sheild his child
Like igun igemo.....
Ifa protect me
The hair
Protects the head.....
Ifa protect me
Ètìpọ́nọlà always
Cover the earth.....
Ifa protect me
After leaving the hatchery
The hen protects her chicks.....
Ifa cover me up
Like the ocean
Covers the sea sands
Ifa cover me up!

Ifá had predicted carnage this year, especially in Yorùbá land!
Our assailants have no justifiable cause, other than their penchant thirst for blood!
At this perilous time, no one knows who is next. But one thing is sure, Ifá will always protect His Own.
I pray His protective covering shall extend to each and everyone of us and our loved ones.
Our hearts is with the family of those who had fallen. May the Irúnmolè's requite their innocent blood on the heads of those heartless blood sucking demons and their sponsors.
Àṣẹ!
