Summary
| DescriptionOduduwa Flag.jpg |
English: A popular flag choice of the Yoruba people often appearing at rallies, demonstrations and ethnic solidarity events across Yorubaland and the Yoruba diaspora. The Oduduwa flag consists of a blue-white-green diagonal tricolor band representing the sea, the sky/peace and the land respectively. Sixteen six-pointed golden stars said to represent the original sixteen clans/settlements/progenies that emerged from Ife in Yoruba ethnic lore and signifying illumination/progress are arranged in a circular pattern at the centre. Two thinner diagonal red strips representing sacrifice and struggle are placed within the middle band section. A red central laurel representing nobility and sacrifice envelopes a central head representing Oduduwa or Olokun, central figures in Yoruba origin legends, which symbolizes common cultural origins and a shared destiny.
