Bee Project

Gànlɔdó Wiin (Honey Bee) Project

We at Gànlɔdó know what our ancestors knew: that nature is Mãwù's ultimate shrine! However, due to several factors primarily induced by the yõvò (non Afrikans, primarily whites) the nature shrines are under unnatural threat. One of the biggest threats is to our bee population. Ayìnɔ̀n Àgɛ̀lɔ̀gbàgàn Jǐsovì Azàsinkpontín Àgbɔ̀vì I, while at a botanical garden he frequented often, noticed this past spring and summer that the bee activity in this botanical area had reduced by at least 30-40% from when he first discovered it 6 years ago! When the bee activity is low at a botanical garden then we know something is not right.

Therefore, one of Gànlɔdó’s primary projects will be to get as deeply involved with helping to build and sustain a healthy bee population. Many people do not realize how important bees are in general. Local bee keeping is becoming easier to do so let's get engaged. Check out the basics of bee keeping.

As Măwùfɛmetɔ (Afrikans) who have reclaimed our culture and deities, we also need to reclaim stewardship of this very earth that Măwù (the Creator) gave us to dwell on and utilize hundreds of thousands of years ago. We are open to any suggestions addressing the matter of bee shortage from a solution oriented approach. We now seek various Afrikan organizations and individuals to work with on this timely issue.

Look at how the product RoundUp, produced by the infamous Monsato, is destroying our beloved wiin (honey bee in the Ajã language). Even the almond milk industry is causing our bees to disappear.
