Two weeks ago, I had the honour of speaking at the Nigerian Languages Data and Sci-Tech Conference (@nldstc 2025).
Beyond preservation, our work is urgent and purposeful. We are creating valuable datasets for low-resource languages like Yorùbá to support NLP
Took me a while to create this piece because I was looking for a way to communicate an aesthetic that I intend to use in future works.
I would appreciate it if you liked, retweet, and commented on every one of the post to increase visibility.

"Ire o!" is a common Yorùbá expression used at the end of a conversation or meeting that is addressed towards someone (or a group of people) to wish them good fortune, blessing, luck e.t.c.
If you bemoan historical experiences while not being honest in understanding the part played (and still being played) by members of your own, you will always be a pawn on the chessboard of the other.

Òwe Yorùbá
Aṣenilóde ò tó tilé, ilé ni wọ́n ti ń ṣeni
The enemy outside is no match for the enemy at home, it is in one's house that one is done in
[The enemy at home is more formidable than the enemy abroad].
Òwe Yorùbá
Àfẹ́dànù ni tìyàngbò
To be blown away in the wind is the fate of fallen leaves
[Directed to a a person to imply that - They can not escape an evil fate, just as fallen leaves cannot avoid being blown away by the wind]
Òwe Yorùbá
Ìríni ni ìkíni, ìkíni ni ìjẹ́ni.
To see a person is to greet the person, to be greeted is to respond.
[The well-bred person greets people when he or she sees them, and the well-bred person responds to greetings.]
Òwe Yorùbá
It is a mediator that pleads with death; it is a mediator that pleads with trouble; when one is beset with sweat, it is a fan that intercedes for one.
[There is a means of dealing with any sort of difficulty]
