(MFR) one of Nigeria’s most respected actors and movie Producers which Part 1
of the interview broke on this blog early in the week, we hereby present the
Part 2 of this rare exclusive interview for your delight.
In this Part 2, the Septuagenarian
producer of epic movies like Arelu, Yapan-yanrin, Fopomoyo and more told us the Spiritual implication of sleeping
with a woman and making it a public discourse and why such attitude has led to
the death of the glory of many young people. He also spoke on why many actors of the Yoruba
movie genre become so wretched as a result of their ignorance of making
incantations on movie sets.

| Chief Jimoh Aliyu to Asabeafrika….’I lost 3 children for reciting incantations without knowing the implication’ |
Sir, you said rendering incantations
in movies has made many artistes broke, can you explain the reason better?
in movies has made many artistes broke, can you explain the reason better?
Let me tell
you a secret, making incantation is like someone who went to buy a copy of 7 book of Moses and you don’t know the
antidote and the person now ran mad.
There is different between Ofo (Incantation), Ohun
Ife (The Ife Creed), Ayajo (Daily Authority) and Ogede
(enchantment).There are some Ogede you chant and you don’t know
the time you are chanting it is the wrong time of the day, it is just like
reading Psalms in water; some Psalms you read in water, others work with olive
oil and others are for coconut water and so on. Some people don’t know the
power behind incantations and by the time you say ‘this and this and that is
the reason why the earth is round and covered with water’ and you are using
that same Ogede to chant a curse on a fellow human being on a movie
location all in the name of doing a movie, that person might become wretched or
even die because you are only joking with what has been said but the celestial
forces have taken it serious. Once I did that mistake and I saw the consequence
I quickly changed my system.

| Baba Aworo to Asabeafrika…’Sleeping with a woman and making jest of her has great repercussion for men’ |
What happened to you?
I lost three
children in quick succession over sacrifices I ought to make for recompense and
that made me quickly reach out to elders for consultations because my father is
an Ifa priest. They were the ones
who told me that ‘do you know so-so and so-so things you call are very
injurious to your spiritual life? Next time don’t complete so-so line because
if you do, this is the implication. Remove this word from these lines or if you
have to call it down, this is the spiritual remedy (Ero). Sometimes we want to
do a scene that has to do with “Esu” (Devil) I will say “Esu, maa se mi o, maa de se awon Omo ton sere oo, a kan fin sere ni
ooo. (Devil, don’t harm me and don’t harm any of my artistes, we are only
using your name for movie purpose). It is just like when you publish a book and
I now re-produce it as a movie without taking permission from you, you can sue
me to court. That is how it is with these elemental beings, instead of suing
you to court; they will sue you to poverty. If you see most of those actors
chanting incantations in movies, may God forgive me; most of them are so poor
and wretched. Even in Islamic injunctions, there are some Tiras, you call some Imams to come and help you chant and
they will stoutly reject because if they try it, they might go broke for
months.

I am on my last stage on earth
Is it that majority of those actors
are unaware of the implication of chanting those incantations?

That is why
I said we have lost our culture; people doing movie today just want to make
money, I am not looking for money any longer, it is good name that is my lot.
Even this birthday (80th birthday), now, I can’t explain it again
because my goodwill alone is opening doors for me and I am getting enough than
I can’t explain. The kind of support from individuals, journalists like your
humble self, media organizations and even some people want to inaugurate me as
King of Culture (Oba Asa) for my exemplary role in the development of culture
in Nigeria. It is not easy for one to be made Cultural ambassador by one’s
state, Member of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (MFR) by the nation and Afe Babalola
the Senior Advocate of Nigeria instructed the university community to make me a
Professor of Theatre Arts, I think it is God’s doing, not man’s knowledge and
that is why I am very grateful to God, and right now I am at my last bus stop.
I have taken my passport and waiting to board the plane to the next
destination. Once you are 35 years, you have to be careful because life’s span
is set to start decreasing at age 35 and if you don’t take time, you might be
writing a letter to death. If you take things easy, your lifespan can be
increased even up to a septuagenarian and octogenarian age. But if you are not
careful, you might get to 45 and you will just drop straight into the grave.
Some people will tell you ‘oh, I love Ogogoro’ another one will say he
cannot do without smoking, there are some foods that destroys the heart, there
are some medication I will take now but your own body will react to it
negatively, that is why I restrain myself and I will also say you must be
careful with women because they also play a role in determining how long you will
live on earth.

Are you saying sleeping around with
women does not have health benefits?

The youth of
today thinks it is a fanciful thing to carry women about but I will correct
that opinion now, young men who indulge in changing women like napkins, look,
it is not all women you have the grace to climb their chest as a human being.
There are some women you will climb their chest and you will never amount to
anything again in life.

“In fact, if a woman’s private part
is not secret; God will not put it in such a very secret place in between the
legs. The names are Idi (Ona le dii
mo eyan—It can lead to the blockade of good things coming to you) I don’t like
calling the other name publicly but they call it Obo (Ole bo Ogo eyan mole—It can cover your glory for life) they
call it Abe (Under) (Abe yen le
be—That under can cut you to sizes), but majority of our men don’t know, it is
also called “The River of Life”

| Baba Aworo to Asabeafrika….’A lot of actors have destroyed their own lives due to ignorance about incantations’ |
How do you mean, sir? Are you saying
after I climb a woman and I enjoy her and I go bath it off, things could go
worse for me?
after I climb a woman and I enjoy her and I go bath it off, things could go

My son, I
did enough research in that area and don’t forget that I am a spiritualist.
There are different kinds of Emere (Ogbanje) there is Water
Ogbanje, there is Ogbanje of Banana groove and all
these elements have left the T-Junction
where they get their sacrifices, they have moved into the church and mosques.
Even the witches are no more standing at T-Junctions
again, they are now in the churches and Mosques and other popular places; they
now come to parties because they know that is where they can get their human
sacrifice. You will see a well dressed and pretty woman and you will say ‘oh,
she is beautiful and sexy, let me chop her’ and you chop and die. They have
left their abode to mix with the world and they are ready to dress to kill just
to catch your attention and mess up your life.

| Chief Jimoh Aliyu to Asabeafrika…’It is a taboo for a young man to send away a woman who just got pregnant for him’ |
Are you saying men are in trouble?
Now, this is
the implication for young men, if you meet a young lady and tell her ‘Look, my
dear, I don’t intend to marry you, I just want us to befriend each other and
enjoy the relationship, I already have my own wife’, if she loves you; she will
agree and befriend you. That is number one. Secondly, you were able to date or
sleep with that particular woman and you now sat with your friends in a public
place and she passes by and you now open your mouth to say “Oh, look at her, I
have chop her, I don’t need her again” or “I have seen her through, she is not
my speck! She is this, she is that”, my God! You have just cursed yourself and
you have fall into a very big problem because we call it “Private Part” (Abe)
and it has nine names (Oruko Mesan) and those nine names are curse-able names.
Whatever you do with it must be private. If you have seen the private part of
any woman before, you will discover that you only need to keep the relationship
private; it is not a thing you start bragging or talking about publicly because
it is called private part.

“I said ‘as my daughter is going
through labor pains, I will put water in her front and I will drop just one
kobo in the water. That boy will be chasing kobo for the rest of his life. When
I said that, I left. By the third day,
the family loaded themselves in three cars and quickly sauntered into my house
in group”.
So, what are those other names that a
private part is called?
private part is called?
In fact, if a
woman’s private part is not secret; God will not put it in such a very secret
place in between the legs. The names are Idi (Ona le dii mo eyan—It can lead

called “The River of Life” if you swim in it and you swim successfully in and
out, you should count yourself lucky and thank God. So, it is not something you
make jest of. Never! Now, look at where God hid it under the woman; the day a woman undresses for you and you are
able to see her nakedness, she is not thinking of God on that day, she is not
even thinking of her father or her mother again, everything is for you and your
eyes alone because the love she has for you has covered the shame and she
cannot take that privilege of showing you her nakedness in privacy and now take
the same nakedness to the public and say ‘everyone, come and see oo’. No,
meaning that she held you in trust to be able to cherish her privacy part and
never make it a public discourse. But some unfortunate people will now start
making jest of the lady and the repercussion is very bad. I will not make a
woman my concubine if I see that I love her and I want to marry her, I will
rather marry her; and even if I toast you and you refuse me your love. Just for
the fact that I have toasted you, I will love to find something to compensate
you so that you will be happy and when she is far away, she can say ‘Even this
man who didn’t do anything with me, has done this favor for me’ she will be
happy but in your case, you deceived her, unveiled her, enjoyed her nakedness
and you now start talking about it in public or you promise her something and
you refused to fulfill the promise; even God Himself said something in both the
Bible and Quran over making covenants (Alukawani), in traditional pantheon it
says “Eke nii peru, Epe ni npole, Ile

How a young man impregnated my
daughter and….
daughter and….
So, you mean all these creeds are
powerful?
powerful?
They are but
a lot of young people are not knowledgeable in them; for instance, a lady come
and tell you ‘I have missed my period I think I am pregnant for you’ and the
next thing you say to her is ‘Are you mad, you better go and look for your
missing period and find where you hid it’, haaaa, (Exclaimed, holding his head)
that is a big taboo. It is unheard of in Yoruba land. Ok, let me give you an
example, sometimes ago, someone had a relationship with my daughter and got her
pregnant. I saw my daughter’s state and I said ‘where is the man responsible?’
She said ‘Dad, he rejected it’, I said ‘no, he can’t reject it, he will take
it’. So, I went looking for the guy’s
mother and I said to her, my daughter said your son impregnated her but he has
rejected the pregnancy. Don’t worry, I have the antidote; on the day my
daughter is going through the labor to have the baby, I will drop a kobo inside
water for your son. I said ‘as my daughter is going through labor pains, I will
put water in her front and I will drop just one kobo in the water. That boy
will be chasing kobo for the rest of his life. When I said that, I left. By the third day, the family loaded themselves
in three cars and quickly sauntered into my house in group. They first lied to
me, that ‘sir, our son is not here but we have come to plead on his behalf to
settle the matter”. I replied them and said ‘All of you here, I don’t have
issues with you, the man I want to throw a kobo inside water for is the one I
have issues with” and before I knew it, the guy stood up among them and came
forward “I am the one sir, I have come to beg you, I will take the child but I
cant marry the mother”, I said “Hey, hey!!! As you have just said you will only
take the child and reject the mother, that child will become the greatest among
your children and….’.

| Chief Jimoh Aliyu to the GDA…’The Private Part of a Woman has nine names and I will tell you’ |
Thank God that child today, is out of the University and
this is a child that they nearly terminated his pregnancy. He read Mechanical
Engineering. There are lots of young girls that will beg me to help them abort
their pregnancy and I will reject and when they give birth, we get twins. So,
if I kill those children, who do I know they are going to become someday, we
offend God so much in this country, we offend God and that is why we are in
problem. That is why the young people are in crisis. A prophet must be
truthful, an imam must be truthful and the herbalist must be sincere. An
herbalist should not enter the kingdom of God ahead of a Prophet or a Pastor
because if you find out, in the later hour, some prophets’ way is cruel.
Someone has problem and you tell him to go and sell his property for you to
heal him. I usually tell people who come to me for help, don’t sell your house
to solve your spiritual problems, don’t. Just tell me your problem and I will
help you, if things change for good and you are grateful so be it and if you
are ungrateful, well, that is your own portion but I have seen many people who
came back to say “Thank you sir, we didn’t know you are this special”. If I
tell you anything, it is out of personal experience, not hearsay. I lived in
the north at a time, I have spent time in the East, Igbira land, Liberia, Ivory
Coast up to Ghana, Kumasi; all those places I go to learn one thing or the
other. If I am in Saudi Arabia I
don’t sleep on my hotel room, I will be going around finding out why certain
things are peculiar. I will be searching for knowledge. That Kabba
people go to pray in Mecca, most people don’t know what goes
underground the Kabba.

their pregnancy and I will reject and when they give birth, we get twins. So,
if I kill those children, who do I know they are going to become someday, we
offend God so much in this country, we offend God and that is why we are in
problem. That is why the young people are in crisis. A prophet must be
truthful, an imam must be truthful and the herbalist must be sincere. An
herbalist should not enter the kingdom of God ahead of a Prophet or a Pastor
because if you find out, in the later hour, some prophets’ way is cruel.
Someone has problem and you tell him to go and sell his property for you to
heal him. I usually tell people who come to me for help, don’t sell your house
to solve your spiritual problems, don’t. Just tell me your problem and I will
help you, if things change for good and you are grateful so be it and if you
are ungrateful, well, that is your own portion but I have seen many people who
came back to say “Thank you sir, we didn’t know you are this special”. If I
tell you anything, it is out of personal experience, not hearsay. I lived in
the north at a time, I have spent time in the East, Igbira land, Liberia, Ivory
Coast up to Ghana, Kumasi; all those places I go to learn one thing or the
other. If I am in Saudi Arabia I
don’t sleep on my hotel room, I will be going around finding out why certain
things are peculiar. I will be searching for knowledge. That Kabba
people go to pray in Mecca, most people don’t know what goes
underground the Kabba.

Can you tell us sir?
Under Kabba
we have a busy express road with moving cars and packed ones and cars on that
road are almost twenty thousand, I researched everything including Medina
even the famous mosque in Medina is also built on a high, atop
a bridge. People don’t research, that is the problem. This bead on my wrist is
sourced from Kabba, from the hotel in front of Kabba in Saudi Arabia. Where you find the best
beads in the world is Mecca. But if
I put in all over my wrist and legs people will say, one is messing around with
fashion but it is my fashion sense and nobody’s problem. If you see any man of
God, Pastor or Imam who is involved in any scandal, it is God that is
interested in exposing him over his secret inanity. So, a man of God be him
Muslim or Christian must be truthful. That is the way to make God happy with
you. Some people will be abusing me, but I am beyond all that. If they say
somebody slept with my wife and I now start to curse him that is not me because
his destiny is not in my hand.
