Sections (Navigate sections)
The people of Ile-Ife and Kano had been living in peace for many years, but that peace was about to be shattered.
One day, a mysterious stranger arrived in Ile-Ife. He was a tall, dark-skinned man with piercing eyes and a long white beard. He wore a long, flowing robe and carried a staff that seemed to glow with an inner light.
The stranger went to the palace of the king and asked to speak with him. The king was intrigued by the stranger and agreed to meet with him.
The stranger told the king that he had been sent by the gods to deliver a prophecy. He said that the gods had foreseen a great conflict between Ile-Ife and Kano. He said that the gods had cursed both cities, and that the curse would last for seven generations.
The stranger warned that if the people of Ile-Ife and Kano did not put aside their differences and work together, the curse would bring destruction and death to both cities. He said that the only way to break the curse was for the people of both cities to come together in peace and harmony.
The king was shaken by the stranger's words. He knew that the people of Ile-Ife and Kano had been enemies for many years, and he feared that the prophecy would come true.
The king thanked the stranger for his warning and sent him on his way. The stranger disappeared into the night, leaving the king to ponder the prophecy.
The king knew that he had to do something to prevent the prophecy from coming true. He called a meeting of the leaders of Ile-Ife and Kano and proposed a peace treaty between the two cities.
The leaders of both cities agreed to the treaty and swore to put aside their differences and work together for the good of both cities.
The people of Ile-Ife and Kano celebrated the peace treaty, but they never forgot the prophecy of the curse. They knew that if they ever broke the peace treaty, the curse would be unleashed and bring destruction and death to both cities.
