Yoruba and Fulani altercation ever present since 1500 BC,but why some people are religiously intolerant is what I don't understand.That the Yorubas living in IIorin wants to observe their Use festival, doesn't mean that they are displacing the indigenes.

See many useless comments from useless people on the platform. What's big deal about fulanis capturing Ilorin? That's how it used to be. While fulanis were capturing Ilorin, a yoruba town, Yorubas were capturing Lagos the most important City in the whole Nigeria from Bini people.

Unity of yorubas in religion remains a figment of imagination of clowns on Nairaland from SW extraction..

I have personally and stylishly asked some Christian Yoruba single ladies I have worked with before..


I asked them, ..

If Igbo Christian man come for your hand in marriage and a Yoruba man who's a Muslim come the same time and you have only those two options ,...who would you marry ?... They all told me Igbo, except one whose father is a Muslim that told me he doesn't have issue with religion... In fact, one of them told me "Olorunmaje" for her to marry a Muslim Yoruba grin cheesy
Now I keep asking myself if Yoruba on nairaland are different from yorubas offline or do the ones on nairaland love deceiving themselves ?

Can somone like Prof Akitola give out his daughter for a Christian to marry ?
Average Christian in South West can't give out his daughter to a Yoruba Muslim to marry as well .
Let somebody like Osibanjo try it let me see.

80 percent of yorubas both Christians and Muslims are conscious of their religion.

If you want to know if what I am saying true, make the inquries yourself if you are very close to yorubas (Female ones)

Some SW Nairaland rodent just love deceiving themselves with "Religion doesn't matter in Yoruba land".

If religion is very matter in Yoruba land as you claimed, Peter Obi supposed to win in Ekiti and Ondo that had Christians as majority while Muslims were minority in those two states. You're comparing choices of women on who to marry to unity of Yorubas.

Come to the streets of Yoruba land and say this rubbish. We will bring out all your teeth with punches.

What happened to Deborah is the business of fellow Northerners, what happens in Yoruba land is Wole Soyinka’s business.

I am sure Emilokan Tinubu would have called the useless Emir to mind his actions so that he will not be sent on exile.
and you don't have the balls to punch the Emire and the dublu agublu society that curtailed your rights and that of your prophetess from performing your isese tradition, balless fear fear.😁

That's not the point baba...The point is, Yorubas are not extremists like the Hausas and fulanis. Furthermore, in almost all yoruba families, you will have Christians, Muslims and traditionalists. And they live together like that. You can hardly come across such in any other part of Nigeria. You can be Christian, your niece might be Muslim and your nephew might be a traditionalist...and you go still dey live together and do things together happily.

thank God, one sensible human on this thread, I keel on telling people that traditional rulers are major cause of chaos in this Nigerian society, they should be scrapped 100%..Everyone is born equal, no one should sit down, doing nothing and be collecting 2.5% of LGA money... It's not right Nigeria is a republic for heavens sake. There was a reason the house of chiefs, which was like the house of lords in UK was abolished in Nigeria.

Well you're right. There's religious consciousness, but at the same time there's also religious tolerance found unlike anywhere in the world. The mixture of the two gives birth to the peaceful co existence and respect for one another amongst the Yoruba. Most of those that said religion doesn't matter are most either atheist like Soyinka or the have I don't care attitude towards religion.
