AT LAST GBOLAHAN SALAMI MOVES TO EUROPE

Super Eagles striker Gbolahan Salami has completed a move from the
Nigeria Premier League to Europe where he has sealed a one year deal
with Finnish Veikkausliiga outfit Kuopion Palloseura.
Salami was feared to be missing out on another Euro move especially
after he dumped the CHAN Eagles that went to Rwanda.trained in the national stadium lagos
While Salami was unable to tie a ‘big deal’ as many will expect, he
has officially been offered a one-year contract with KuPS, with the
club having the option to extend the agreement for an additional
season in December 2016.
Already a statement to that effect has been published on the official
website of KuPS who barely escaped relegation last season.
Many will be left disappointed that Salami who emerged top scorer in
the Nigerian Premier League last season has settled to play in an
‘obscure’ league in Finland.
The former Warri Wolves striker is expected in Kuopio in the coming
days, subject to being granted a visa by the Finnish authorities

Language and Culture Of Ekiti People

Language & Culture The Ekiti is a sub-group of the Yoruba , and indeed their ancestors migrated from Ile-Ife, the spiritual home of all Yoruba . The local dialect is spoken with slight variations in the different communities, but this does not prevent Ekiti indigenes from understanding each other. Christianity, Islam and traditional religions are all practiced. The people of Ekiti are culturally homogenous and speak a special dialect of Yoruba language known as Ekiti. The dialect however varies across locations, e.g. Otun people (in Moba land) speak a dialect close to that of the Igbominas in Kwara and Osun States; the Oke-Ako, Irele and Omu-Oke people speak a dialect similar to that spoken by the Ijumus in Kogi State. The people of Efon Alaaye also speak a similar dialect to that of the Ijesas of Osun State. Although slight (and in very few locations, somewhat wide) variations exist in the local dialects, the Ekiti people understand each other and communicate pretty well. Poli...
