Mophasa:
Afonjas can be classically defined as the a$$ lickers and worshippers of the gambaris (fulanis)

Eg- Awolowo, Tinubu, Oba Lilwayne of the lagoon

We even have loads of them over here on NL ie Sarrki, Antiwailer, ngeneukwenu, madridguy etc
We also have afonja wannabes like omenkalives and Co

They can give up their lives just to defend their fulani masters and they have vowed to be slaves to the fulanis for life

Dictionary of Nigerian History (8th Edition):

1. (noun): a slave, especially one who has vowed to remain same forever, mostly from the southwestern region of Nigeria.

2. (noun): a person, easily recognizable by whiskerlike tribal marks across the face and highly skilled in the art of betrayal.

3. (pron): someone who has determined to gravel at the feet of Fulani Muslims, or conveniently plays second-fiddle even if it means death.

4. (adj): used to qualify a people who can never see anything good from the SouthEastern or SouthSouthern regions of Nigeria.

Example:
1. Awolowo was the Afonja who took rat poison to end his miserable life after helping to shed the blood of millions of Biafrans and swindling them out of their money.

2. Oba Lilwayne was the Afonja that promised to drown all Igbos in the lagoon if they don't vote for his anointed President who later turned to be a snitch.

3. An Afonja king recently disrespected another Afonja king and got his regalia burnt.

Unimaginable123:
name of a yoruba chief in ilorin that invited fulanis to help him fight oyo empire. The fulanis ended up killing him and installing their emir as chief of ilorin

9jakool:

Afonja was a historic figure from Ilorin who formed an alliance that backfired on him causing Oyo to loose the Ilorin throne.

On NL:
A term derived from a historic figure that people from a very particular tribe like to single out and abuse to validate their pathetic claim after now learning about the rich history of Yoruba people. They use it as an insult while not understanding it's full context. In reality, it makes no sense because it's the same as referring to Jewish people as Judas as a form of insult.

EzeCanada:


Quite an intelligent and sincere submission. I can understand your frustrations too. The only contrast however, is that unlike the jews, majority of the historic figures from this particular tribe past and present exhibited similar betrayal tendencies as the Afonja.
The Awolowo's, the Obasanjo's, the Diya's, the Tinubu's and more recently the Akinolu's, just to mention but a few, comes to mind.

Nevertheless, there are adorable ones amongst them.
