The Brazil of today has taken the Yoruba traditional religion beyond its original intention , which was just a religious practice brought to the Americas during the slave trade era , the terrible act that robbed millions of Africans out of their regions in Africa as slaves to the Americas
Today , Brazil has sucessfully turned the tragic moment of its history to a state of possitivities , the nation now makes money from the African history. Brazil pockets billions of dollars during the annual festivals of Arts and Culture, the Carnaval.
To this end , all Nigerians , Africans in the streets of Brazil are seen as gods , they are the custodian of the African culture and tradition. They are the gods in the streets of Brazil .
