silent don: The emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-
Gambari has narrated how he prevented a
Yoruba/Fulani ethnic conflict that he said
could have thrown the country into a major
crisis about two months ago.
The monarch made the revelation yesterday
at the annual national conference of the
Ilorin Emirate Descendants Progressive Union
(IEDPU), at Fufu in Ilorin South local
government area.
Sulu-Gambari said the conflict would have
started in his domain before it was averted.
He disclosed that a clash between the Yoruba
people and the Fulani herdsmen in Alapa area
in Asa local government in the Ilorin Emirate
would have triggered off a war, if not for
his intervention.
The emir said that some people alleged that
after the death of a Yoruba man in a clash
between a Fulani and Yoruba man, members
of the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) were
mobilised to attack the Fulani people in the
area the following day.
He added that it was further alleged that
after OPC members had killed many of the
Fulani herdsmen, their wives and children,
they carried away their cattle and disposed
of them in Ibadan.
The monarch disclosed that this allegation
made a group of militants from the far
north of the country to mobilise themselves
and prepare to come to Ilorin to avenge the
killing of their Fulani kinsmen.
He said that when he heard of this plan, he
quickly intervened by explaining to the people
that the progenitor of the head of Ilorin
Emirate was from the Sokoto Sultanate and
that both the Fulani and Yoruba people in
the emirate were one people, cohabiting
without discrimination.
Sulu-Gambari disclosed that what he said
discouraged the people from going ahead
with their vengeance mission and thanked
God that his intervention worked, saying
that the reprisal attack would have
aggravated the security problems of the
country.
He said that the Fulani herdsmen left who
were displaced after their huts were burnt
during the conflict had been relocated to a
camp. He said that along with assistance the
Kwara State government had rendered to
the camp, he had donated N1million for
their feeding.
The monarch, who described Kwara State as
the gateway between the North and South-
west of the country said that if Ilorin the
state capital, or the state as a whole were
to be engulfed in violence, the whole
country would be in trouble.
He called on the people of his Ilorin
community to discourage violence by not
discriminating against one another based on
ethnicity; saying that they had all came
from elsewhere to live in the community and
had long become brothers and sisters.
The emir commended the leadership of the
IEDPU for the achievements recorded within
its tenure, under the presidency of Saka
Yusuf.

I can now understand the fusion of the ACN and the CPC.
I can now understand the conspiracy of the APC against the rest of us.

silent don:

Throw more light on this, thanks.

silent don:

This Emir is a funny man, he should have allowed them to come now. He knows their coming will inadvertently lead to their end and his end thereafter, he's now coming to say rubbish.

We all know how he was panicking and running around when several fulanis were slayed in response to the killing of a Yoruba Alhaji. He was scared the thing can deteriorate and consume them all.
Mr Emir, you shall live in fear till u flee!

...and yea, I love the OPC's swift response in Ilorin, they rearrange any bas.tard who tries to pass the laid boundaries. S/O to Salam Maruff Olanrewaju their leader.

Warri _Pikin:

Typically, a coward usually comes out to boast as soon as a war is prevented. Now you are making mouth because the Emir succeeded in stopping Fulani, instead of thanking God and thanking the Emir for begging the fulani to spare your lives. if Fulani had refused the Emir and had come now, you would run faster than Ben Johnson leaving women and children behind. Only one group of Nigerians the fulani would not dare attack in their land and you and I know it isn't the yorubas.

phase1: Fulani no dey forgive oo. They will retaliate in 10 folds, you can bet on that. Go ask Berom people, them go yarn you well.

This thread is gonna be hot. The E-warriors are on their way.

Jos different from Ilorin my guy.

phase1:

Yeah,I agree with you. One refuses to have an Emir (Jos), the other (illorin) enjoys having the Fulani as their Emir in exchange for relative peace.

naijaking1:

Remember your people presented to a guallible Afonja as a visiting Arabic scholar, who advised on on "modern" military theories, convinced him to rebel against the Oyo king, then you attacked him when he had lost the loyalty of his king at Ife. It was like a joke, small, small, other Fulanis began to come down to Ilorin, the northern boarder city of Oyo empire.
You still want to go down and establish an Ibadan, Akure, and Ife emirates with Fulanis
Hopefully, you'll limit that cra.ziness to the west it wouldn't happen in Aligbo with Igbos still living. You'd ready to kill them all, before pulling an Afonja on any small village.
