U dey whine, nupe armies and oyo armies actually ransacked sokoto, that is what drew fulanis from what we call middle belts today where Nupes reside to core north.

And yes, Ilorin lost all their armies to oyo during ekiti parapo war, thats after they were seriously dealt with in osogbo war

Very wrong history, the Fulani, Nupe and oyo( Ibadan) were in alliance, and ransacked the Middlebelt together, at this time even Ilorin and Bida were under Fulani rule,were the hell do you people get these twisted histories from.

babasolution:


The oyo never crossed Ilorin, they cudnt even reach Bida,you talking of sokoto

Mokwa and Nupes in Niger State were once under the Oyo Empire

Jebba still belongs to the Yorubas

I doff my hat for the yorubas. But this should not be in the politics section though.

And of course this thread was likely created by a non Yoruba.

babasolution:

What do you mean by Oyo couldn't cross Ilorin,even amodu bello in his book "my life" said British met Ilorin as a Yoruba town and he believed Ilorin is a Yoruba town, they brought the the emir back from exile because they were the first to set up monarchial system there.

Moreover Jebba which is after ilorin is still a Yoruba town with Yoruba king from then till date

You right. Ilorin was a military outpost of the Oyo empire that became a town. The oyos had military outpost all over the present day yoruba land as far as Benin Republic.

All those location in different shades of red are Oyo empire. Arrow in blue showing Ilorin.

If not for that senseless man called zik, kwara and kogi will be in SW.

He did everything to make the western Nigeria small. Remember how he fought so that Lagos will not be in the western region. But God pass them.

You Know the Story!!!


Azikiwe did everything he knew just to frustrate the Referendum to return Kwara State to the Western Region because he knew the people of Kwara wanted to be United with their People in the West

Azikiwe Made sure they had the Mid west Referendum to Remove the area which is now Edo and Delta States

At the same time he made sure the FG he was part of refused to do the Eastern minorities and Kwara Referendum after they had Jailed Awolowo

Ritchiee:
Great Empires like the Yoruba Empire,Roman Empire,China Empire etc fought amongst themselves too.It was the norms then.
The Yoruba Empire fought to extend its territory,fighting and taking over Dahomey as it's vassal state.It extended up to Ewe in Ghana etc.
The (Yoruba)Oyo Empire was one of the longest lasting Empires in Africa.Spannibg more than 500 years before it's decline.

Did they extend to Kwara illorin?

babasolution:


Point my wrong

You claimed to know history and you're here separating Ibadan from Oyo empire?
Who doesn't know Ibadan is the military capital of the empire? It's like the barracks of the Oyo empire.
Na wa for you o. I'm sure you're not Yoruba.

Yes. Ibadan was the biggest military outpost of the empire. Majority of the break away warlords of the kiriji war like Ogedengbe of ilesha was trained in Ibadan. Ibadan and Oyo are inseperable.

Nnamdi Azikiwe was a very terrible enemy of SW. Thank God for Awolowo that never allowed him to rule SW, he would have destroyed SW.
He allowed the referendum that took away Midwest (Edo & Delta) from SW but suppressed the referendum of minorities from breaking away from SE and referendum of old Kwara from joining SW.

It all blew up in his face in the end

Ojukwu was copying his manipulations but Azikiwe Couldn't control Ojukwu who went overboard and tried to completely kidnap the Eastern Minorities altogether into his own New personal Country called Biafra
And even invaded the Midwest imposing one Major Okonkwo over them

It was Azikiwe's plan that Ojukwu was carrying.out using Military power when he saw that they had been completely outsmarted by the Northern Politicians who were on the Verge of dividing the Eastern Region with a Referendum for the Eastern Region Minorities

Azikiwe' was about to loose control of the Niger Delta people and Resources

babasolution:


Alafin of oyo,was weak at this time,oyo had been reduced to nothingness, it was Ibadan that was the Yoruba powerhouse at this time

he is still weak now

Fulani and Oyo/badan were never in Alliance

They were Sworn Enemies

babasolution:


It is a lie,most of the Yoruba wars were fought against Eastern Yoruba ( ijesha, ekiti,Akoko,even okun).
The wars were sponsored by Ibadan after the disintegration of oyo,mind you,oyo was never a powerful kingdom,the Nupe terrorised oyo and the Fulani eventually destroyed it's capital

Stop smoking that which numb the brain.

Ojukwu himself even killing about 150 of Adaka Boro's mean

Oyo empire had already been disintegrated before the setting up of Ibadan as a new camp for the oyo generals who retreated and regrouped in Ibadan after they lost to the Fulani jamaa of ilorin

Those are very disgusting lies

The Yorubas of Kogi were even allies of the Igala and Egbira and together they defeated the jihad and sent it packing

There is no single Emirate in the Niger Confluence area Jihad




You will Travel 100km before reaching the nearest one


The Nupes fleeing jihadists poured into Yorubaland as refugees looking for Refuge from the Fulani Jihad and have since been absorbed into the local population

Balogun Oshodi Tapa of Lagos was one of them

Exiled Ibadan Warlord Ayorinde very successfully defended part of Kogi and Akoko from the Fulani

babasolution:


Ibadan was created after the destruction of the oyo capital, Ilorin was the hitherto military capital of oyo empire

Stop confusing yourself. Oyo Generals founded Ibadan, no?
