Odua Research Group
Researching for the Yoruba Nation
Y-ORG - the Odua Research Group conducts and coordinates wide-ranging studies aimed at supporting those that are promoting the fundamental human rights of the Yoruba people across the globe, and in particular, those in their homeland in south western Nigeria. These are as laid down by the United Nations charter on human rights and include the right to live in dignity as well as to self-determination. We are a non-violent body advocating peaceful dialogue and coexistence in an atmosphere of dignity and mutual respect. Y-ORG is not a hate group. We strive for justice and fairness for our people.

Some facts and figures
Yoruba Nation needs you!
The time is now!
Many people both at home and in diaspora keep asking how they could join and support the movement. There is the hunger and there is great desire for action from so many. This stems from the frustration of watching how the whole Yoruba race has been insulted and treated like second-class citizens in Nigeria. Many intelligent Yorubas with dignity and sense of pride of their race know that when you find yourself in a train that is going in the wrong direction, you need to get out of it at the very next stop. We have been in a train that has been going in the wrong direction for more than 60 years. It is time to come out of it.
