Ilorin is a Yoruba word that means see history below by Engr Musiwa

Ilorin is a Yoruba word that means to sharp a sword. The Yoruba believe that to fight a war during the oyo empire, they had to go to a stone inside ilorin call Okuta Ilorin . I have been there believe it is at Idi Ape Quarters in ilorin. i went with a friend to see the stone.

It is a stone which market value is worth more than $5,000,000 and the people who live around the place dont know. the kwara state govt should take over the house because this is how to generate revenue for people to come and look and they sleep in hotel etc. and it bring people to come see the stone that started the city of ilorin.

the value of the stone will be worth more than $100,000,000 in future as ilorin grows.

ÌLO IRIN..hmmmm!..I believe someday we gonna have ONÍ'LORIN of ÌLORIN.

I am waiting for the day when in Nigeria somebody will leave his state to look at a stone in another state.

When that happens, then our economy is okay.

How come Aare did not give us the picture of the "Okuta Ilorin"?
I have a slight different history from Aare on the name Ilorin

REMMEI: ÌLO IRIN..hmmmm!..I believe someday we gonna have ONÍ'LORIN of ÌLORIN.

Keep dreaming... : D
