Emissary of the
Gulmu Kingdom
Origin & Lineage
Chosen from
within a lineage
To understand Iritah Shenmira Naba (Neb), you must first understand what it means to be chosen by a lineage not appointed, not trained from the outside, but recognized from within.
A high priest and healer of the Dogon bloodline from the Gulmu region of Meritah (Africa), Iritah Shenmira Naba (Neb) is the son of the late Master Naba Lamoussa Morodenibig a legendary Dogon prophet who dedicated his life to educating humanity on its original spiritual principles.
Born among the Tem people in Togo, he entered initiations and apprenticeships with priests and healers from boyhood, enduring the full rites of passage. After his father's passing, he stepped fully into his calling ordained within three months, carrying the mission of his ancestors to a global stage.
NABA Iritah holds explicit authority from his Dogon lineage and has been granted permission by the King of the Gulmu Kingdom to represent and protect these traditions. He is not simply a practitioner — he is a commissioned emissary, accountable to elders, ancestors, and the communities whose cultural continuity depends on his stewardship.
As a world-renowned diviner utilizing the M'TAM system — an ancient science rooted in the Earth's dialogue of energies, solution-oriented and over 70,000 years old — Neb Naba Iritah offers readings and consultations that bridge the physical, energetic, and spiritual dimensions of human life. He is a published co-author of Book of Purifications, Initiatic Tales of Hej-Ptah, and Philosophy Podium: A Dogon Perspective, and has written extensively on indigenous history and perspective. He leads annual cultural and spiritual immersion trips to West Africa and retreats around the world that reconnect people across the diaspora and beyond to their traditional roots.
An international speaker and lecturer fluent in French, English, and several indigenous languages, he has appeared on global platforms, podcasts, and conferences — consistently named among the most compelling indigenous voices in conversations on spirituality, healing, and cultural preservation.
As Director of Education at Kebtah — an international organization dedicated to preserving and promoting indigenous culture — Neb Naba Iritah brings the same integration of ancestral depth and organizational vision to institution-building that he brings to ceremony. With deep initiation in indigenous governing frameworks, he practices a rare form of leadership: rooted in collectivist principles, accountable to tradition, and fully equipped to operate within contemporary structures.
His defining gift is the ability to unify worlds — the invisible and the visible, the ancestors and the living, the marginalized and the powerful, the ancient and the now. Where others see contradiction, Neb Naba Iritah sees a threshold. And at that threshold, transformation becomes possible.
