The Mugbamugba War – Second Attempt By Yorubas To Regain Control Of Ilorin by Dovegrey: 1:52pm On Jul 27, 2021 |
For better understanding of the Mugbamugba war, you should read the true story of how Afonja lost IIorin and its kingship to Fulani people. After the Fulani Jamma murdered Are-Ona-Kakanfo Afonja and seized control of Ilorin, Abdulsalam, the son of Shehu Alimi, became the first Fulani ruler of Ilorin. Abdulsalam ruled with the title of Emir and not Oba which proved that the Yorubas had completely lost control of Ilorin, a Yoruba town, to the Fulanis. In a bid to restore the control of Ilorin in the hands of the Yoruba people, Toyeje, the Baale of Ogbomoso and the new Are-Ona-Kakanfo, led an attack on Ilorin to expel the Fulanis but failed. After sometime, between the months of March and April when garden egg (Igba) was ripe for harvest, another attempt was made by the Yorubas to chase Fulani people out of IIorin but failed again. During this period, the whole land was already devastated by the previous wars and consequently there were no farms for foraging. Ilorin had also ran out of food, so both sides had no food to eat than garden egg (ìgbá) thus the war was named Mugbamugba. The Yorubas suffered untold defeat in the Mugbamugba war. They did not know how else they could fight the Fulanis who were expert horsemen with potent charms. Monija, the king of Rabbah and a mercenary fighting on the side of the Yorubas, fled to his town leaving the Yorubas to their fate. To crown their victory, the Fulanis of Ilorin attacked all towns in the directions of Offa, Erinle and Igbona. The Olofa of Offa with Asegbe (his Ilari) escaped to Ikoyi. 1 Like |

[s] NaijirianKing:[/s] Trash. Afonja revisionist. Present day Kwara state even up to Niger state was under Oyo Empire rule according to British colonial records until Fulani disgraced your forefathers out of their own land. Where did you get your own Afonja history if your people learnt to write from the same British?? You are ashamed of your own history. |

NaijirianKing:What's your source? I am sure this was history according to you. You are a revisionist. If you had read that piece which is the correct version you will know that the war relates to Ilorin as there was nothing like Kwara as at that time. You can open a new thread on this your new fables and we will meet to discuss it. |

The ruler of Ilorin when the British arrived was a Yoruba man Called balogun alanamu . The last Emir Momoh had been defeated by the Yoruba Chiefs and had burnt himself alive inside his Palace Ilorin has Fulani Presence only because the British reimposed the defeated Emir on Ilorin around 1897 Before that balogun Yoruba (Inakoju alanamu) was the actual ruler of Ilorin. The Emir had been deposed by the Ilorin Yoruba Chiefs before the British arrived. balogun alanamu fought the British and was exiled to Jebba after the British defeated him. It was the British that reinstaled an Emir in Ilorin after the defeat of balogun Yoruba Inakoju alanamu due to Political Pressure from Northern Emirs . The Emir of Ilorin had been defeated and deposed by the Ilorin Yoruba Chiefs before the British arrived. The British left at Independence after an agreement was made to have a referendum Kwara State. The Post independence Government of Balewa and Azikiwe frustrated that referendum by not carrying out the Kwara referendum which should have happened at the same time as the Midwest referendum in order to cripple Awolowo and his Party Politically after Awolowo had been jailed in 1962 Balewa and Azikiwe also didn't Carry out the other referendums agreed with the British before independence meant for the Eastern and Northern Minority Ethnic groups. Ilorin still has an Emir because of Colonial and Tribal Politics 4 Likes
