Ayo Akinyemi, 2019, Immaculate Osun, 41cm by 41cm, Acrylic, Ink & Charcoal on Canvas.
..the elephant roved for several years but was not hit by the javelin. The buffalo wandered for many months and did not slip into a ditch. It is only a person who fails to appreciate human beings and that is not well learned and spiritual, that would say a woman is insignificant.

Therefore, do not abuse women because of their sexual peculiarities...
Ose-Otutrupon.
(Ifa Chronicles)
Socrates
