The reason why, when the Ebbo is finished, it is placed to Elegba

In the land of beyeku niwe Inle, Eshu baniro lawo lived, who ruled that land and always kept those lands in complete calm, for he was a very obedient omo of elegbara.

But in that same land, karako awo lived, the one who was brother of Eshu baniro lawo and whose sign was ofun odi, which was the opposite sign of Eshu baniro lawo, which was odi ofun.

Karako awo always worked together with his brother, but he had great envy of him to such a degree that every time Eshu banire lawo did an Ebbo.

While his brother was getting ready to cast it out, he would throw Shepe on the Ebbo so that it would not work, and thus each one of those from that land who went to see themselves with odi ofun Eshu banire lawo, the Ebbo would work in reverse for them, where they were losing faith in Eshu banire lawo.

Thus his popularity was dwindling, and his land was losing tranquility, for they said that odi ofun no longer had Ashe to do Ebbo and he was left as the last in the hierarchy.

Odi ofun does not work, I will be the one to replace him, karako awo used to say, and then he, who was very cunning, said to his brother, rest, I will do your work, for what is happening to you is that you have worked too much, look, you stay there casting out the Ebbo, and I will do all the work.

This ofun di karako awo did, to achieve popularity, for he knew that his brother Eshu banire lawo odi ofun would not throw Shepe on the Ebbo.

Thus time passed and people complained that the Ebbo that ofun di touched with his hands had a stench, people got by but left upset and anyway Eshu banire lawo was worried about how his land was displeased and about the discontent that reigned among everyone.

Then he had a reading and saw his sign odi ofun kande ofun, where he saw that one had to take from the secret of the Ebbo obalu, that his godfather awo teniyi, when he consecrated him, gave him with ige omi meyi yewa, he had left them in his care along with his secret, which was ogguni.

He then looked for ayambeko, he igon omi with ewe and Oggun and after three days took it to the foot of the yagruma, which was the insignia of his land, and there, when he buried ayambeko, the fore Oggun with Ashe meyi, he saw his brother who secretly turned against everyone in that land against him, where he would tell them: don’t you see that even being in the last place it does not work, for it gives stench.

Then he realized everything and the great betrayal of his brother ofun di, and he burst into tears, because he realized that he had lost his position by trusting his own brother, where he remembered what odi ofun said, that one could not trust anyone, not even those of one’s own blood, for he had no friends.

Then he burst into tears and called out to his father:

Ago Elegba ee leye barala yiki osokuo Eshu banire lawo soku soku odi ofun erike babishe elegbaoo.

Where baralayiki, which was the name of his father, appeared to him and said, take me to your house, because I am going to help you resolve your problem somehow.

When they arrived at the house of odi ofun Eshu banire lawo they found ofun di karako awo, finishing an Ebbo, where ofun di karako awo threw himself and gave him foribale.

But baralayiki said to him, you are a traitor and you can never again be in this land, not even to do the Ebbo, that is why you will always have stench, because you are ofun di, you cannot be first, because the Shepe that your brother cast on the eboses when he was doing them with you has reached you, but you will still be the last; you have to count on yourself to cast it out, so that never again the eboses that are done will have Shepe.

Put it in front of me, so that I can take care of it and bless it and it reaches a good end and you do not have problems.

But since I am the father of both, ofun di is banished from this land.

At the bottom, before sending off the Ebbo that you do, before putting it in front of me, first cleanse ofun di, but give him three blows, so that he remembers that he is clean, but he is there because of his disloyalty to his brother.

To iban Eshu.
