Omoyele Sowore Reveals Why He Trusts Herbalists Over Google
Omoyele Sowore, the 2023 presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), has shared an intriguing perspective on how he verifies information. According to him, he prefers consulting traditional herbalists instead of relying on search engines like Google.
Sowore made this revelation during his appearance on a recent episode of The Curiosity Made Me Ask show, hosted by content creator Bae U Barbie.
Debunking Dual Citizenship Claims
During the conversation, Bae U asked Sowore a pointed question about his leadership and its implications:
Bae U: “Do you think it’s fair to lead protests with people who don’t have dual citizenship like you do? Unlike you, they cannot leave for another country if things go wrong.”
In response, Sowore clarified the misinformation surrounding his citizenship:
Sowore: “Dual citizenship means being a citizen of another country alongside Nigeria. I’m only Nigerian by birth, and that’s the only passport I hold. It seems your research needs updating, just as I need new campaign managers. You didn’t do your homework.”
Although Bae U admitted she was aware of his single citizenship, she pointed out that many people believe otherwise due to Google search results.
Why Sowore Trusts Herbalists Over Google
When asked to clarify, Sowore humorously dismissed Google’s reliability and explained his preference for cultural traditions:
Sowore: “Why are you relying on Google? I don’t use Google. For serious matters, I consult herbalists. You probably saw me with one in court in Abuja. This practice reflects our culture. What you now call Google is what Yorubas refer to as Orunmila, the oracle of wisdom. It offers more reliable guidance than Google ever could.”
Returning to Cultural Roots
Sowore’s comments sparked curiosity about the intersection of technology and traditional African practices. He emphasized the importance of embracing cultural heritage and finding value in indigenous wisdom, which often serves as a reliable compass for life’s challenges.
Conclusion
Omoyele Sowore’s bold statement about consulting herbalists over Google highlights his commitment to cultural traditions and his willingness to challenge modern conventions. While his stance has sparked conversations, it also raises questions about the balance between technology and indigenous knowledge in addressing modern-day issues.
