Opis:
This paper examines the concept of wealth among the Yoruba people in southwestern Nigeria. There is yet to be a historical appraisal of the understanding of the phenomenon of growth in wealth in African cultures. This paper therefore fills these obvious gap with an explanation of how Africans construe wealth within the domain of Yoruba society: the significance of wealth, the sources of acquiring wealth in Africa and how wealth has been used by the people throughout the ages from the pre-colonial to the post- colonial period of the Yoruba history in Nigeria. The paper concludes that the historical experience of slave trade, palm oil production, trading, land ownership, agricultural production and competition for power are the symbolic and characteristic features of wealth as an important component of livelihood of the Yoruba people of Africa. Finally, some directions for future research are suggested.

Opis:
The issue of the third person singular pronoun subject in Yorùbá is a controversial one. The controversy borders on whether Yorùbá has a phonetically realised third person singular pronoun subject or not. Some scholars believe that the occurrence of a morpheme presumed to be this pronoun is at best a high tone syllable (HTS); the implication of this is that the position of this pronoun in any structure in which it is presumed to have occurred is empty and without any phonetic content. There are three schools of thought to this controversy; while some scholars believe that Yorùbá has third person singular pronoun subject, some others believe that it is non-existent. Some also believe that there are two ways by which the morpheme assumed to be the third person singular pronoun subject could be interpreted. According to such school, the morphemes can be designated as a High Tone Syllable while, in the second instance, it can be interpreted as the third person singular pronoun subject; depending on the context in which it occurs. This paper is a contribution to the controversy but in another dimension. I argue in the paper that Yoruba language should be regarded as a pro-drop. This may be at variance to what obtains in some other established pro-drop languages in the world; however, language internal evidence appears to favour this assertion of pro-drop. Evidence is given to buttress my arguments. My argument is not limited to whether this morpheme exists or not in the subject position; I also explored other positions within the structure of Yorùbá language to show the erratic nature of this pronoun. The paper concludes that if my arguments are proved to be valid, then, the issue of whether Yorùbá́ has the third person pronoun subject would have been significantly addressed.

Opis:
We show in this paper that a number of studies have been carried out on cultural values with reference to the Yorùbá marriage system and that of the Western culture. Although previous studies have shown the differences between the Yorùbá marriage system and the Western marriage system, none has discussed the effect of colonization on the Yorùbá marriage system and the need for the redirection of our steps towards the Yorùbá cultural values and ideals. We argue that it is important, in view of the widespread venereal diseases, single parenting and juvenile pregnancies, among others, to revisit our cultural values so as to promote the ideals that are present in the Yorùbá marriage system as against what is obtainable and prevalent, not only among the westerners, but also among the contemporary Yorùbá people. We argue further that it has become imperative for the African man to think and look inward and emphasize the African philosophy in tackling moral challenges not only in Africa, but also in the world as a whole.

Opis:
Many research works have been carried out on focus construction in Yoruba and its dialects. These works include the comparison between the focus construction in Yoruba language and the dialects of Yoruba, a comparison between the focus construction in one dialect of Yoruba and the others. But no attention is paid to the comparison between the focus construction in Yorùbá and Èbìrà languages. Findings reveal that despite the fact that Yorùbá and Èbìrà languages belong to two different language families, there are some similarities between their focus constructions. However, the similarities between the two languages are noticed in the dialect of Yorùbá such as Oǹdó dialect. This forms the basis of the discussion in this paper. The data collection relies on the informants who are the native speakers of Òkené (a sub-dialect of Èbìrà language) and Oǹdó dialect (a sub-dialect of Yorùbá language). The informants are between ages 65-70 and have spent their lifetime in their dialect communities. Descriptive approach is adopted for the data analysis.
