ÌGBÌMO OMO YORÙBA (YORUBA DESCENDANTS COUNCIL), (IOY).

WELCOME TO ÌGBÌMO OMO YORÙBA (YORUBA DESCENDANTS COUNCIL)

ÌGBÌMO OMO YORÙBA (IOY) began as an idea of a forum to bring like-minded Yoruba sons and daughters together, to constantly interact and rub minds on ways and means of encouraging socio-cultural and economic development amongst the Yoruba people all over the world.

It started on 7th May 2023 with a few persons on a WhatsApp group where we held discussions on contemporary issues as it affects our desires for socio-cultural and economic development of Yoruba land.

The group has now grown tremendously both online and offline with reasonable presence on social media platforms like Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. Right from conception of the idea and since the inception of the WhatsApp Group, we articulated amongst ourselves our Vision and Mission Statement.

Our Vision Statement:
To renew and recreate our socio-cultural values that preserves our heritage, health, and wellbeing all over the world, now and for future generations. To project and preserve our OMOLUABI ethos and core values of diligence, hardwork, and excellence to further our progress within the federation of Nigeria.

Our Mission Statement:
To inspire Omo Kuotu Òjííre to be industrious, prosperous, self-aware, and preserve our heritage. To revive our Omolúàbí customs of respect and put preeminence on Yoruba language and uphold the sanctity of our history and our rich cultural heritage. To foster social cohesion, inclusion and to further cultural solidarity with one another wherever we find ourselves on the globe.
