Yorubaland, a term that geo-politically does not exist, but nevertheless identifies a vast African cultural region (including Lagos), in which a single people, the Yoruba, of about 40 million individuals, live in south-western Nigeria, but also in parts of Benin and Togo, united by the same language, history and origins, handing down from generation to generation, ancestral customs, traditions and spirituality, stronger and more identity-driven than progress and geopolitical separations, imposed by colonialism.
