We raised every Igbo that matters in history with our Ewedu soup.
Ojukwu's father arrived in Lagos when he was 26 years old. He raised Ojukwu a Lagos boy.
Ekwueme attended Kings College and was developed eating Ewedu.
Chinua Achebe and the Okigbo brothers were raised and developed in Ibadan eating Ewedu and Gbegiri.
Emeka Anyaoku's wife prepared Yoruba ewedu for him everyday as a Yoruba woman to develop his brain, that is why he is different from Nnamdi Cownu and Simon Ekpa.
Ngozi Okonjo-Iwealla was raised with our Ewedu and gbegiri going to school at St. Annes Ibadan. Just like we raised her father in Ibadan.
You see most Igbo with anything to show were raised with our Ewedu.
Taa, bupu asu.

The Prof is right but not firm enough. We are going to put an end to the public practice of Islam and Christianity in Yoruba land and the world. They should practice in private. Islam turns people into terrorists and Christians turn people into haters and criminals with a sense of entitlement. Only normal theologies describing God well will be allowed. Then Ilorin belongs to Ilorin people. Jebba to Jebba people, Offa to Offa people etc etc. Why are some here saying Ilorin is Fulani?. No Fulani in Ilorin but they have people of Fulani descent, Hausa descent, Mali descent Nupe descent Bariba descent etc. Ajikobi who was sired by Alaafin Abiodun put the place under British protection. If you put anywhere under British protection, what does that make you?. People should stop saying rubbish they understand nothing about. Ilorin are majority Muslims but they have not been able to stop churches and many scions of the Emirate are now Christians. They place ebos in Ilorin as much as any Yoruba town and what they lack which they will soon get are Egunguns. As I pointed out Islam and Christianity will soon be practiced only behind closed doors in Yoruba land. I mean of what use are those barbaric practices?. There are no positives about them.

You did the right thing your highness... They should go back to yoruba land if they must practice their archaic religion... Please trash the rubbish letter from someone who has long outlived his usefulness.... Imagine mentioning Deborah.... A girl he didn't utter a word about when she was lynched.

Modified.... Tenants now want to exceed their boundaries grin
I like how Ilorin people are very proactive in checkmating their activities

It's good you hammered on 'Demorah' as mentioned by the Proff but you still referred to traditional religion as archaic religion. Ok then, is islam, the religion observed when Deborah was lynched, better. See, many of you come to Nairaland to comment and like comments out of emotional feelings and sentiments, not out of logic. Try to develop on your sense of reasoning, Baba.

Lol. I am very sure Prof Soyinka did not address this letter to the Headless Mob, nattering dimwits and fascists. So calm the f**k down!

WSpopotamus wanted those he termed fascists, to take his side.

Tell WSpopotamus to go and practice his heathenism in Yorubaland, and leave Ilorin people alone.

We know the history of Ilorin and the trajectory of your dynasty – but these are not the issues.

Who noticed this?

Is Soyinka telling him indirectly you don't have a say in Ilorin? shocked

I noticed it, well that statement speaks volumes.

Though not really a lover of those their isese practices as a christain but everyone has a right to their religion and to practice it.

It's still the Yorubas in Ilorin that are against it, that it is fetish.

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".

Your goal is to divide the Yoruba with Yoruba Muslim nonsense. Thousands of not millions of Yoruba married interreligiously. Okay ? Go to Yoruba land to see for yourself.

But Saraki is more Yoruba than Lawal.
Why did he do that?

Saraki denies being Yoruba descent saying he is Mali descent though Ilorin people say he is Egba but Lawal never did that.
