Stories and patakíes

Ajinaku, the elephant, was before a small animal

Ajinaku, the elephant, was before a small animal.

He desired with all his strength to be big.

And he went to look for a babalawo by the name of ceke ceke la allo.

Ika meji appeared, and the sacrifice was: a basket full of snails(slugs), four she-goats, four mortars for pounding grains.

And it was necessary to give it to Oduduwa.

Ajinaku followed his prescriptions, and the Orisha received these objects and covered them with a large cloth and prayed for eight days.

And, on the eighth day, ajinaku became big and heavy as we see him today.

And they go to look for a babalawo, and they ask him the question: how could we find a good Oba who maintains peace?

Ika meji appeared, and prescribed the following sacrifice: sixteen horns of any animal, sixteen cages full of chickens, sixteen sheep, sixteen baskets full of pigeons, sixteen baskets full of etus, sixteen sacks full of cauris.

The haoussa did it.

Among the objects they brought to the babalawo, he returned the horns to the people.

The haoussa told the priest to take charge of the enthronement of the Oba.

The priest takes two horns and put them on the new candidate.

Suddenly elegbara appeared and blew into the two horns, which were fixed on the Oba's head.

And since then the Oba is called: usa xolu ko u zo, that is to say: the Oba of the haoussa wears horns.
