VIDEO: Olayimika babalola - Nigerian Anthem (Yoruba Version)

Babalola, Olayinka Gabriel is a Nigerian – Norwegian child from a Yoruba father of Ile-ogbo, Osun State and a Norwegian mother. He is a 12year old boy born and bred in Norway and resides presently in Houston Texas, United States of America with his family.


He is one of the students of an Educative and Cultural institute situated in Houston Texas, USA known as Lineage Alive foundation which is a foundation focused on teaching both Yoruba youths and adults living in Nigeria and most especially in Diaspora the Yoruba language and Cultural morals and values which is a passion borne out of the discovery that our Yoruba Language, cultural and moral values are fast eroding.

We have decided to re-awaken it so as to stop it from getting into oblivion.

Olayinka has shown a great deal of interest in learning Yoruba Language and because of his passion for music, he has featured in many Yoruba cultural concerts in the USA and has released four tracks of Yoruba poems which are "Ise logun ise", "Eran ewure", "Iya ni wura" and our National Anthem in Yoruba language and because of his quest to learn more about Yoruba race.

Here At Gbetu, we present to you the National Anthem in another level.
