OloladeMabel

Some vows are never meant to be made if the sacrifice for it, is losing something greater.
Queen Moremi was the definition of a strong African queen  and Mother who would do anything in her power to save her people from a situation that threatens everything they hold dear. Her spiritual journey that would make her a legend many years after her deed into the modern age. 
The saviour of the yoruba people of Nigeria, without her the ancestral home of the yorubas would have gone into extinction.
But she did all these with an unbearable price...

Moremi Ajasoro

This is definitely the best time.. she thought as she opened her eyes which were closed in false pretence earlier 


This is her fate and her destiny she cannot be caught 


A face appeared in her mind as she picked up her slippers 


Determination surged through her as she hurried quietly... 


It was almost dawn she cant afford to be seen.


Won o gbodo mu mi lailai ( I must never be caught) 


These words were like a resounding song in her heart 


Who is there?? She heard a voice called


Ne raa ni bee ( the voice asked this time softly) 


She only released her breath when she heard the person closing the door 


She quickly ran out through the small wooden door from the back 


Olodumare please do not let anyone see or hear me let them be blind and deaf to me'' she prayed silently


She was scared but there is something more fierce than fear in her heart now it was as if Olodumare heard her everywhere was silent 


Hey stop there!!! Someone grabbed her...


Fear and anger struck her heart as she felt perspiration down her back it was as if a bucket of cold water left for days in the clay pot was poured on her.... She turned as she came face to face with the one that Esu had used to defy her prayer to Olodumare..


Hope you all enjoyed this just wanted to try and see if it is enough to catch your attention.


The language spoken is the Yoruba language of the Yoruba tribe in Nigeria 


OLODUMARE is the Supreme Being of the Yoruba Belief .I.e God Almighty 


ESU is the opposite of God in modern yoruba but then he was also a god


Nee ra ni bee is the ilaje language question of whoI'm is there?? ( water tribe of the yoruba people of ondo state) 


there are different tribes under the yoruba so dont be confused. The language is almost similar but different accent and pronunciation but it is still Yoruba and same meaning. 


Won o gbodo mu mi is the yoruba way of saying I must not be caught while the ilaje says ahn gbudo mu mi 


Same meaning different accent and pronunciation.


Sorry if my explanation is confusing 🤔as the story goes it becomes clearer ( dont forget to like and comment )


❤ you guys and see you in the next page😜
