About Personnel

I am Dr. Osholene Oshobugie Upiomoh, a wife and mother with a productive Meritah (African) family rooted in my Meritah Indigenous culture, spirituality, and worldview. I am an entrepreneur, and public speaker with a wish to help people achieve their personal and professional development goals, spiritual growth, and self actualization. Very significant to my becoming and career as a researcher and educator is my life as an initiate of Meritah’s (Africa’s) traditional Ancestral education and Wisdom school of the Dogomba (Dogon) bloodline, where I learn at the feet of traditional Meritah Indigenous elders, a network of priesthood, and kingship in Western Meritah (Africa). As an author, I write stories that honour Meritah’s Ancestral lineage, culture, tradition, and spirituality. I am also a Meritah (African) Wisdom Indigenous Educator, Heritage Cultural Consultant, Storyteller for Children and Families, the Founder and Executive Director of Meritah Wisdom Education Center for Children and Families, Meritah Indigenous Homeschool Program Coordinator, the CEO of OshoIseh Indigenous African Educational and Cultural Consulting Services, the host of the Repiyah Heritage TV Show, and recipient of many prestigious awards. As a cultural educator, through the lens of African Indigenous Education, I help my learners answer the questions of identity (who am I?), goal, and purpose. I am currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree in Social Justice Education at OISE, University of Toronto, where I also gained my Master of Arts degree in Educational Leadership & Policy, with some published academic work. I lecture and present at schools and is invited as the Mistress of Ceremonies to host conferences and moderate events, along with breathtaking oral traditional storytelling performances, all from the perspective of the richness of Meritah (African) Indigenous culture, spiritual worldview, traditions, and stories. As a Cultural Consultant, I possess extensive knowledge of the Meritah culture and how services can best be delivered to meet the needs of the community of the people of Meritah (African) descent in ways that transcends the limits of racism or anti-Black racism. ***“Meritah” is the Indigenous name with which our Ancestors referred to the beloved Land called Africa today***
