language and culture. All Maroko children spoke Yoruba, regardless of ethnic origin. Yoruba worldview and ethos were, therefore, the first cultural values I learned.

Perhaps what made these lines particularly blurry was the Yoruba attitude to religion. In one family, there could be Christians, Muslims, and Ogun worshippers.

There was no sense of superiority or exclusivity.I was very proud of this Yoruba inclusiveness and worldview.

I am not a naïve liberal with no sense of pragmatism who sees the world through rose-coloured glasses. So, I know that elections will always be divisive and politicians will do all they can to win.

A society where we beat up people, suppress voters, and encourage bad behaviour to win an election, is intolerant, exclusivist, and close. In time, this bad behaviour will show in all aspects of that society and may even reflect in its economic performance as open and inclusive societies tend to do better and grow faster than closed ones.
