Middle belt mainly but indigenous Christians yapa for north

Since known bigots are the ones giving figures then I'll assume the actual Muslim percentage to be much higher.

LukasPodolski:

I would love to make a correction on the issue of Kwara state as a BONAFIDE Kwara indigene.

I'm a Christian, but saying that the population of Christians in Kwara is up to 40% is not true.

among the Yorubas that occupies 12 local government area and 2 senitorial district (Kwara South and Kwara central ) + 1 local government govt in Kwara North which is Moro local government.

Kwara South has 7 LGAs (predominantly Yoruba)
Kwara central has 4 LGAs(predominantly Yoruba)
Kwara North has 5 LGAs (but Yorubas occupies one of these five LGAs )

7+4+1 = 12 Yoruba LGAs

the only Christian dominated LGAs are Isin, Ekiti and Oke-Ero (I came from one of these LGAs)
these three LGAs are the smallest in respect to population and Landmass in Kwara state.

Ilorin which is the largest City is 98% Muslim
Offa which is the second largest city is at least 90% Muslim
if you remove these two cities from kwara, then there is nothing left in terms of population.

among the Yorubas of Kwara state, the population of Muslims is 70% while Christians is 30%

now if we add Kwara north(an area which is 90% Muslims, the Nupes and Bariba people), this will reduce the population of Christians in the whole state to 15%-20%)

now to the concluding part which is also the most important part, you called yourself a northern Christian advocate or whatever, I think you should remove Kwara state from your activism or whatever, you don't create a problem where there is none, Kwara is a state of harmony, Kwara is arguably the most peaceful state in Nigeria, so don't come and cause problem here with your activism.

did you even know that Most of the popular pastors in Nigeria started in Ilorin?
from Adeboye to Oyedepo to Fatoyinbo to Sam Adeyemi and his brother and the list goes on.
here is a comprehensive list of Nigerian pastors that started in Kwara state.
https://www.nairaland.com/2584549/most-nigeria-top-pastors-tied

though most of them left for Lagos, Ogun and Abuja for wider audience, only Rhema Chapel still had it's headquarters in Ilorin.

Ilorin is the most lively city In northern political zone and the third in Yorubaland after Lagos and Ibadan.... despite the fact that the city is 99% Muslim (indigenous people), the ratio of church to mosque is like 8:2, you would see 8 churches in Ilorin before you will see 2 mosque.


even the the last 3 first lady were Christians
Toyin Saraki never convert into Islam.
Omolewa Ahmed was even a Deaconess.
the current one two is a Christian (though I don't know much about her)

this is how we roll in Kwara state and Yorubaland at large, we view ourselves as Yoruba and Human being before any foreign Religion

so don't take your activism to kwara, it's good here, unless you want Ogun to kill you.

thank you

Wagbayi Omo iya mi, I'm a Christian too, but trying to separate us with Religion Is so so not possible in Yorubaland

He can try it somewhere else!!

Dedetwo:


The Christians in northern region of Nigeria behaved liked slaves and willing tools. A young lady from Jos told me she could not have attended secondary school in Plateau State because she was a Christian. She used her mother's maiden name to gain admission. I asked how could you be in the majority yet told what to do by the Muslims?

That's not the true story about Plateau state. Christians enjoy every right in Plateau states even Christians from other states in far North East. I doubt if she's really an indigene of the state. Ask her to tell you her LGA and what school it was.

Let me help you out, as an activist for northern Christians and minorities.

Benue, Plateau, Kogi, Tararaba, Adamawa, Nasarawa and FCT are clearly Christian majority states.

KADUNA state has more Christian Indigenes (60%), but over the years, so many Muslim immigrants from other state has diluted it and it's now like 50-50.

Gombe, Niger & Kwara states are at least 40% Christian.

Borno, Bauchi & Kebbi states are about 25% Christian.
The southern parts of these states are majority Christian.

Katsina state is about 15% Christian.
About 6 LGAs in the South of Katsina state (Kafur, Malumfashi, Funtua, Bakori, Kankia & Dutsin-Ma) are heavily christian. Most of the rural areas and villages in these LGAs are Christian.

Yobe & Kano states are also indigenously around 15% Christian.
However, Boko Haram seriously displaced Yobe Christians from around Potiskum area and now they may be less than 10% in the state.

For Kano state, so many other Muslim immigrants from other states and Niger republic have seriously reduced this figure.
However, LGAs like Tudunwada, Sumaila, Rogo, Bebeji, Shanono & Doguwa (all in Southern Kano) have hundreds of Christian villages.

In Jigawa & Zamfara, there also exist Christian communities (like full fledged Christian villages) e.g Roni LGA of Jigawa has Christian villages.
However, in both states, the Christian population should be around 5%.

Sokoto is the only state in the North where I doubt it is possible to find entire villages that are originally majority Christian.

I can confirm bakori, malumfashi and funtua in katsina states. Most Christians live in villages . They are many of them.

SlayerForever:
Let me shock you. In Nasarawa state no local government area is muslim owned/dominated. None.

Nasarawa state is from middle belt not North

You are a condemned liar.
You don't know nothing about Kwara state.

Before I proceed, I will like to clear your insanity.
Where were you and your cowardly fathers when the Yorubas of Kwara & Kogi were carved into Northern Nigeria?
You people cowardly let that slide away and even till date you keep quiet about it, so shut that hole in your face.
As long as religion remains the number 1 identity in the north and your useless Kwara state is still under Northern Nigeria, continue to cry forever.
If u think I give a fvck about Yoruba people, then u are insane.

According to you, Irepodun & Ifelodun LGAs of Kwara state are Muslim majority? Absolute nonsense and lies.
Omu-aran town ( the 2nd biggest town in Kwara south) and the 3rd biggest in the entire state is Christian dominated and it is the headquarters of Irepodun LGA.

Kwara state is 75% Yoruba & 25% Nupe & Bariba.

The Yorubas of Kwara state are divided into 4 groups, the Igbominas who are the largest and dominate Kwara south and Asa, Ilorin Emirates Indigenes, the 2nd largest, Igbolo who dominate Offa & Erin ile LGAs and the Ekiti speakers who dominate Ekiti & Oke-ero.

Igbominas are majority Christians with significant Muslim minorities for starters! Ekitis are entirely Christians while Ilorins & Igbolos are Muslim majority with significant Christian minorities.
So stop masquerading as a Christian and take that your Islamic system of taqiyya back to the pit of hell.


As for Kwara north, only a nincompoop will claim that this area is 90% Muslim. Are you aware that most times, the deputy governor slot goes to Kwara north and it is always a christian? Muslims are majority in Kwara north, yes, but the christians there are not less 35%!

In Patigi town, Christians outnumber muslims!
The 2nd biggest Nupe town in Kwara!

There are so many famous and politically powerful Christians who hail from Kwara north

Very Correct sir

Muslims in Nassarawa state are far less than 30% in all. I keep shouting this for all to know how hausafulanis are doing politics with reckless abandoned in Christians dominated states like Adamawa, Kogi, Kaduna and Nassarawa

Kwara is the most prosperous state in the north Central, miles better than your battle ground Plateau state, in the north Central after Abuja, Kwara is next....

northern Nigerian is just a political term, Kwara is culturally and geographically a Western state..

have you ever wonder why Kwara is a state of harmony? it's because religion is not our identity contrary to the trash you said earlier that religion is the identity of northern Nigeria people..
OUR SLOGAN IS "THE STATE OF HARMONY" IT'S GOOD HERE.

now back to business.

KWARA CENTRAL: have you ever seen someone from Kwara central that practice Christianity? Kwara central that consist of Ilorin east, Ilorin South, Ilorin west and Asa is at best 95% I've never seen someone from Ilorin that practice Christianity, the 5% would most likely come from Asa (Ilorin Emirate is 99.9% Muslim)

Kwara central constitutes like 40-45% of the whole Kwara population.

KWARA SOUTH :

Offa, Erin-ile and other towns in Oyun are called IBOLO and not IGBOLO
(it shows that you rely on Google and not first hand experience)

Offa the second largest town is predominantly a Muslim town with very tiny Christian population.

In Irepodun, Omu-Aran Is not a majority Christian town, I know Omu-Aran like the back of my hand, Omu-Aran though harbours Christians from small Irepodun villages like, Oko, Aran-orin, Roore, E.t.c
the three biggest towns in Irepodun are;
Omu-Aran ----- looks like 50/50 or slightly Muslim majority, even most popular people from Omu-Aran are Muslims, like Lateef Jakande, Koko zaria, Owolewa, even Pastor Oyedepo was born to a Muslim family.

Oro is the second Biggest town in Irepodun and it's majority Muslims, 90% of notable people from this town are Muslims, Lai Mohammed, Pasuma, Yinka quadri, e.t.c

Ajase-ipo, the third biggest town too is majority Muslim.

the Christians dominated towns in Irepodun are small towns and villages, the Muslim dominated towns will neutralize the Christian towns.

Ifelodun too is majority Muslim, Share, Omupo, Idofian e.t.c are Muslim towns, especially Omupo (where Muslims used to have a mini- pilgrimage)

it's only Isin, Ekiti and Oke-Ero that are Christians dominated areas.

in Ekiti, the biggest town which is Osi is majority muslim, but other towns like Obo, Etan, Oke opin, Epe are overwhelmingly Christian Villages.

in Oke-Ero, the biggest town, Ilofa is 50/50, but other towns like Odo-owa, Aiyedun, Ekan, odofin are overwhelmingly Christian.

Isin is also Overwhelmingly Christian LGA.

KWARA NORTH : The Bariba people that occupies Baruten and Kaiama are 95% Muslims but the Nupes has a very small Christians in Patigi but not Edu.....

Moro, which is the only Yoruba area In Kwara north is also 90% Muslims, you will only find small Christians in Shao town, in villages like Malete, Elemere, Asomu, Kosubosu, Alapa where the Kwara state University is located you will hardly see Christians, In Malete, Elemere villges not even one single Christian...
if you doubt me, take a trip to Malete, where the Kwara state Uni is located, it's just a 45minute journey from Ilorin, then take a quick census or ask any indigene of Malete and other surrounding villages about the religion demography in the area, they will tell you that they are all muslims, 100%

the only Christian dominated areas are Isin, Oke-Ero, Ekiti, these areas are Soo small that Saraki came to campaign in one of these LGA he said the total number of votes in that particular LGA is less than his Polling unit in Agbaji, Ilorin.

and lastly, in respect to population, the igbomina are not the largest, the Igbomina only have the largest Landmass..
They occupies, Irepodun, Isin and some part of Ifelodun, Irepodun population is not up to Ilorin west, while the combined population of Ifelodun and Isin is not up to Ilorin east.
leaving Ilorin South and some part of Asa behind.

hence, the Ilorin are the largest Yoruba subgroup in Kwara.

if you remove Ilorin and Offa from Kwara, there is nothing left.

I don't need to proof that am a Christian, I just love being objective, and there is nothing wrong in being objective.

Why do you always have real tension created by hausafulanis Muslims of the north to ensure the primaries of the two important parties produce only Muslims?
Buhari will never allow Christians to rule
Walid Jibril is the BOT of PDP who ensure Dino Melaye was sent packing in primary of PDP Las year..!

Ebirra have about 30% Christians population
Igallas have over 55% of Christian population
The Okuns are over 90% Christians.

Don't just ask but take ya time to research the indigenous population. Fulani supremacists agenda have distorted a lot of realities to the disadvantage of Christianity in Nigeria just as Buhari is fixing Hausafulanikanuri Muslims in all federal positions to the tune of 99% of all. Is that the reality on ground?

God bless u fam!! that guy @nowuse clearly relayed on Google to get his informations

he uses the trick of dashing out percentages and numbers to gullible southerners in order to appear smart and informed.. he doesn't know anything, just check his profile and see how he got every political permutation in the MB leading to the presidential election wrong!!

his trick is that he goes to Google and type "LG/tribe in kwarra state" and start attaching imaginary digits and percentages to it .. and as a southerner, if u don't have any kknowledge of those places, you'll easily fall for it! very cunning guy

I stopped reading and didn't bother to reply him when I saw kwarra, kogi, bauchi and gombe having 40% Christian.. its like saying bcuz Auchi is a majority Muslim LG, then Edo is 40% Muslim!! this is the argument he uses

I know as a Christian his trying to protect his religion, but the fabrication, concoction and lie is too much! he looks desperate to deceive southerners

the reason the guy has bitter hatred against the Yoruba of MB is bcuz u have refuse to join their destructive agenda against the north.. when they want to play politics is "Middle belt" but when u get appointment its "north central"

Kwara is next after Abuja? Oshogbo weed at work
Can you compare the size of Ilorin to Jos?
In the entire Northern region, only Kano, KADUNA and now recently Abuja is bigger than Jos city in size!
Ilorin is in the league with cities like Makurdi, Bauchi, Maiduguri & Sokoto.

Jos city is like x2 the size of Ilorin.
Google maps is your friend.
There are more than 30 tertiary institutions in Jos.
The kind of million dollar industries headquarters you have in Jos like NASCO & GRAND, how many of such are in Ilorin?
ECWA, one of the biggest church denominations in Nigeria & COCIN too, with millions of church members both have their headquarters in Jos.

Oga, see, know your mate ooo
Better go and compare Ilorin with Makurdi or Lokoja.

northern Nigerian is just a political term, Kwara is culturally and geographically a Western state..

Nigeria has a Constitution and it classifies Kwara as a northern state.
Geography is inconsequential here.

have you ever wonder why Kwara is a state of harmony? it's because religion is not our identity contrary to the trash you said earlier that religion is the identity of northern Nigeria people..
OUR SLOGAN IS "THE STATE OF HARMONY" IT'S GOOD HERE.

Muslim extremists have burned down churches and attacked Christians in Ilorin, time and time again.
So pls shove that 'phantom' peace down your behind.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/north-central/254386-churches-attacked-ilorin-new-year-day-can.html

Peace that only comes by surrendering your land to the rulership of the fulani emirate of Ilorin & Sokoto caliphate.
Thank you, but I think I will pass for that kind of peace. Peace is slavery & servitude.

now back to business.

KWARA CENTRAL: have you ever seen someone from Kwara central that practice Christianity? Kwara central that consist of Ilorin east, Ilorin South, Ilorin west and Asa is at best 95% I've never seen someone from Ilorin that practice Christianity, the 5% would most likely come from Asa (Ilorin Emirate is 99.9% Muslim)

Kwara central constitutes like 40-45% of the whole Kwara population.

Yes Kwara central (Ilorin) has half of the state's population, but that is because all Kwarans live in Ilorin.
Non Indigenes of Ilorin have outnumbered Ilorin Indigenes in Ilorin 4;1.... That is why Christians are now almost equalling the numbers of Muslims in Ilorin city.

So, you either count Ilorin Indigenes (90%) Muslim with a small population, or you count everyone that lives in Ilorin with a large population (half of the state), and then it becomes 40% Christian.
You cannot count outsiders to Ilorin indigenous population and still label the city 90% Muslim, that is tantamount to madness!

KWARA SOUTH :

Offa, Erin-ile and other towns in Oyun are called IBOLO and not IGBOLO
(it shows that you rely on Google and not first hand experience)

Offa the second largest town is predominantly a Muslim town with very tiny Christian population.

In Irepodun, Omu-Aran Is not a majority Christian town, I know Omu-Aran like the back of my hand, Omu-Aran though harbours Christians from small Irepodun villages like, Oko, Aran-orin, Roore, E.t.c
the three biggest towns in Irepodun are;
Omu-Aran ----- looks like 50/50 or slightly Muslim majority, even most popular people from Omu-Aran are Muslims, like Lateef Jakande, Koko zaria, Owolewa, even Pastor Oyedepo was born to a Muslim family.

Oro is the second Biggest town in Irepodun and it's majority Muslims, 90% of notable people from this town are Muslims, Lai Mohammed, Pasuma, Yinka quadri, e.t.c

Ajase-ipo, the third biggest town too is majority Muslim.

the Christians dominated towns in Irepodun are small towns and villages, the Muslim dominated towns will neutralize the Christian towns.

Ifelodun too is majority Muslim, Share, Omupo, Idofian e.t.c are Muslim towns, especially Omupo (where Muslims used to have a mini- pilgrimage)

it's only Isin, Ekiti and Oke-Ero that are Christians dominated areas.

in Ekiti, the biggest town which is Osi is majority muslim, but other towns like Obo, Etan, Oke opin, Epe are overwhelmingly Christian Villages.

in Oke-Ero, the biggest town, Ilofa is 50/50, but other towns like Odo-owa, Aiyedun, Ekan, odofin are overwhelmingly Christian.

Isin is also Overwhelmingly Christian LGA.

Imagine someone saying that Omu-aran town has more Muslims, or Ilofa is 50-50.
This is a very big lie. I have stayed in these towns and I have 1st hand experience, this is simply not true.
Your problem is that you judge some of these towns with the religion of the families, you forget that over the years, so so many Yoruba Muslims have been converting to Christianity and keep on converting still.

It's just like Ijebu, originally, Ijebu people were a Muslim majority people, but over the years Christians have now become a majority among Ijebus due to high conversion rates. Check out almost every Ijebu Christian today, they have muslim father's or grandfather's.

Another thing is that many of the very small villages in Kwara have dominantly Christian population, and over the years, these Christians migrate to the bigger towns and further dilute the Muslim population.
Just like Offa, you claim that Offa is 90% Muslim. That could be possible 40 years ago, but not today! The Offa I know today is at least 35% Christian!

Thank God for technology, anybody who is interested in demographics, can help himself with Google maps.
If you look at Offa is Google maps, you will see that the number of churches outnumber the number of mosques. This cannot be possible in an area where Christians make up 10% of the population.
Now, I am not saying that the number of churches is directly equivalent to the Christian population, however, it shows the clear and strong presence of Christians there.
So, your write up cannot be corroborated with facts!

Most of those 'famous' people you are listing, check out so many of their wives and children, they are now Christians, just like Bukola Saraki.

KWARA NORTH : The Bariba people that occupies Baruten and Kaiama are 95% Muslims but the Nupes has a very small Christians in Patigi but not Edu.....

Moro, which is the only Yoruba area In Kwara north is also 90% Muslims, you will only find small Christians in Shao town, in villages like Malete, Elemere, Asomu, Kosubosu, Alapa where the Kwara state University is located you will hardly see Christians, In Malete, Elemere villges not even one single Christian...
if you doubt me, take a trip to Malete, where the Kwara state Uni is located, it's just a 45minute journey from Ilorin, then take a quick census or ask any indigene of Malete and other surrounding villages about the religion demography in the area, they will tell you that they are all muslims, 100%

Oga, do you know Bariba at all?
Elder Peter Kisira (former deputy governor) of Kwara state is a church elder and is from Ilesha Baruba. Do you think it would have been possible for him to be the most senior Bariba person in Kwara state for so many years if indeed Bariba people were entirely Muslims?

Go through Bariba towns from Ilesha Baruba to Kaiama, Moshi, Okuta, Gwanara, Yashikera, Chikanda...... There are lots of Christian Indigenes. ... In Chikanda town on the boundary with Benin republic, Christians even outnumber Muslims.
When you go to Benin republic, NIKKI town, which is the traditional headquarters of Bariba people in Benin and a stone throw from Nigeria, is almost 50-50!

It is the Bariba people in Borgu LGA of Niger state that are up to 90% Muslims, but never those in Kwara state.
There are lots of Baptist & Ecwa Christians among the Barubas.

As for the Nupes, you say only small number of Christians in Patigi and the same Patigi town, the christians outnumber the Muslims? What about Gbgugbu town (the 2nd largest in Patigi LGA)? It is also Christian majority!
Patigi LGA is around a 50-50! And it is no surprise because if you cross the boundary into Kogi state, you meet the Nupe speaking Kakanda people who are also 50-50!

Not even the Nupes in Niger state are up to 90% Muslims... Those ones are around 80% Muslims, while those in Kwara & Kogi are 50-65% Muslims, take it or leave it.

Kwara north is at most 70% muslim!.

the only Christian dominated areas are Isin, Oke-Ero, Ekiti, these areas are Soo small that Saraki came to campaign in one of these LGA he said the total number of votes in that particular LGA is less than his Polling unit in Agbaji, Ilorin.

and lastly, in respect to population, the igbomina are not the largest, the Igbomina only have the largest Landmass..
They occupies, Irepodun, Isin and some part of Ifelodun, Irepodun population is not up to Ilorin west, while the combined population of Ifelodun and Isin is not up to Ilorin east.
leaving Ilorin South and some part of Asa behind.

hence, the Ilorin are the largest Yoruba subgroup in Kwara.

if you remove Ilorin and Offa from Kwara, there is nothing left.

See, if you look at Ilorin city, the capital today, you will see that Christians make up to 40% of Ilorin city!
Most of these Christians are from other parts of Kwara state, especially Kwara south! They have all left their villages to Ilorin. Then you also have lots of Okuns from Kogi west.

It is impossible for a state to be 80% Muslim and yet the state capital is almost looking like a 50-50, it is impossible!

And when I say Ilorin, I don't mean the old Ilorin where the Indigenes are.
The Ilorin of today has far far outgrown the old Ilorin town like 4-1 in size and infact, in most parts of the new Ilorin, Christians tend to almost outnumber Muslims!
Or are all these Christians all over Ilorin Igbo people?

I don't need to proof that am a Christian, I just love being objective, and there is nothing wrong in being objective.

You don't need to. A head slammer is always a head slammer

stay away from Kwara, IT'S GOOD HERE.

Kindly beg your fulani master's in Ilorin to free you from the hold of the caliphate and ginger your cowardly people to demand a merger with the Southwest.... Until then, you cannot tell other northerners not to talk about Kwara.
Do you see me meddling in Osun or Oyo state affairs?

TooMuchStuff:

Are you just knowing that...?
Why do you always have real tension created by hausafulanis Muslims of the north to ensure the primaries of the two important parties produce only Muslims?
Buhari will never allow Christians to rule
Walid Jibril is the BOT of PDP who ensure Dino Melaye was sent packing in primary of PDP Las year..!

Ebirra have about 30% Christians population
Igallas have over 55% of Christian population
The Okuns are over 90% Christians.

Don't just ask but take ya time to research the indigenous population. Fulani supremacists agenda have distorted a lot of realities to the disadvantage of Christianity in Nigeria just as Buhari is fixing Hausafulanikanuri Muslims in all federal positions to the tune of 99% of all. Is that the reality on ground?

Perfect analysis!

And among the minority tribes of Kogi state.

Ogori-Magongo are entirely Christian.
Bassas & Gbagyis are overwhelming Christian.
Kakanda are a 50-50.
It is only Egbura Koto/Mozum that are overwhelmingly Muslim.

ItsTutsi:
God bless u fam!! that guy @nowuse clearly relayed on Google to get his informations

he uses the trick of dashing out percentages and numbers to gullible southerners in order to appear smart and informed.. he doesn't know anything, just check his profile and see how he got every political permutation in the MB leading to the presidential election wrong!!

his trick is that he goes to Google and type "LG/tribe in kwarra state" and start attaching imaginary digits and percentages to it .. and as a southerner, if u don't have any kknowledge of those places, you'll easily fall for it! very cunning guy

I stopped reading and didn't bother to reply him when I saw kwarra, kogi, bauchi and gombe having 40% Christian.. its like saying bcuz Auchi is a majority Muslim LG, then Edo is 40% Muslim!! this is the argument he uses

I know as a Christian his trying to protect his religion, but the fabrication, concoction and lie is too much! he looks desperate to deceive southerners

the reason the guy has bitter hatred against the Yoruba of MB is bcuz u have refuse to join their destructive agenda against the north.. when they want to play politics is "Middle belt" but when u get appointment its "north central"

Oga, if you know you have any facts or proof to challenge my analysis, come forward and drop them and let me break down all the ethnic groups for you LGA by LGA.... Okay?

And pls, I never said Bauchi was 40% Christian.
Bauchi at most is 25% Christian.

Yes, Gombe state is 40% Christian or even more!

For starters, Gombe south senatorial district is around 90% Christian.
I challenge you to come out and mention any Muslim majority town or village in Gombe south.

There is no single emirate in Gombe south, It does not and never exist, not even during the colonial era

The Tangale, Waja, Pero, Bangwinji, Tula, Dadiya, Wurkum, Longuda and other tribes of Gombe south are almost entirely Christians.

Then in Gombe central, Most of the rural areas in Akko LGA are Tangale Christians. While Terawa people who dominate Yamaltu/Deba LGA are a 50-50.

If you ask Christians from Gombe state, they will tell you that Gombe state is 50-50. Many of them have tried to prove this to me, however I refuse to buy this from them, because all the factors of analysis has shown that Muslims outnumber Christians in Gombe state.

Gombe North is almost entirely Muslim, while in the Central, Muslims outnumber Christians 2;1 because of Gombe town with lots of fulanis.

And just for the records, I have no business or interests with Yoruba people.
