I was just reading secrets of voodoo by milo rigaud and later found out that obatala created physical human bodies on planet,google ife nigeria and will find out why nigeria is always the giant of not africa but world, and the voodoo practice worldwide today the origin is from ife,but my question is how come as africans as a black man we dont even know who we are due to chasing of the western materialist world.

According to that same site, Ife was first occupied in 600 BCE. It can't be the source of humanity because Homo Sapiens was around thousands of years before that.
Wikipedia is merely reporting the mythology. It's not saying if it's true or false.
Obatala is just another myth like all the others.

@soyayya
You wont find a lot of that literature around to know what the real story is............But as they say look towards egypt.................well replace Obatala for Khnum, the Egyptian potter-god. See if it becomes more acceptable!! happy hunting!

^^^ Not really.
Obatala is more related to the jesus myths: " It appears from the cult dramas of the Itapa festival that Obatala was a dying and rising god. He left his Temple in the town on the seventh day of the festival, stayed in his grove outside the town on the eighth day and returned in a great procession to his Temple on the ninth day. The three-day rhythm of descent into the netherworld and subsequent resurrection on the third day shows the closeness of Obatala to the pre-canonical Israelite Yahweh and the figure of Jesus.[2]"
From Wiki, of course.
Khnum, on the other hand had temples established in Egypt by 2,000 BC.

Always back to the Illuminati... conspiracists (or in your case, conspi-racists) are boring, repellent, and gullible.

Yes, indeed, that was me. Wake up, democrazy!
What maths do you want me to do? What does Mecca have to do Khnum? Or the Yoruba? Could you post up a link so I can read it and know we're talking about the same thing?
I thought we were talking Obatala.
