The article considers how Yorùbá culture and Islamic religion collide and effect a conflicting sense of identity in Ọlánrewájú Adépọ̀jù's chanted poetry. It argues that Adépọ̀ju's poetry represents a different tradition in Yorùbá poetry, having evolved out of the fusion of Islamic religion and Yorùbá culture. The article concludes that Adépọ̀jù's poetry displays border zone tensions between socio-political and religious mandates on the one hand, and contradiction in-between Yorùbá culture and Islamic religion on the other. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of African Studies is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
