Your house is burning. Small boys are restricting the movement of all your elders and flogging your women and children. But you are more concerned with religious differences in a Yoruba town. You people have collective mental problem. Or are you IPOB try to deflect from your shame that as a man you can protect your women, children and land?

But he bear Bukola as name na...



Although I have never heard him speak Yoruba but rather Hausa.

Why is Saraki silent 😶

There is no Emir of Kwara state bro

It's Emir of Ilorin, one of the cities in Kwara....

So the Emir in Ilorin can't impose anything on the whole of Kwara

In Kwara we have Omuaran, which is just about 30 minutes from Ilorin, and they are mostly traditionalists

Insecurity: Infant, seven others killed in another Plateau community attack
The attackers reportedly shot indiscriminately, killing eight people, including an infant.
ByUsman Audu July 10, 2023 Reading Time: 2 mins read
An eight-month-old infant was killed in Farin Lamba, a community in Vwang District of Jos South Local Government Area of Plateau State, on Sunday.

This incident happened two days after another attack on Sabon Gari, a community in Mangu Local Government of the state led to multiple deaths. Several houses were also burnt during the attack.

According to Rwang Tengwong, the spokesperson of Berom Youth Moulders, the attackers arrived at the community at about 9:45 p.m. when many members of the community were sleeping.

He said the attackers came in a Vectra vehicle and started shooting indiscriminately at residents.

“At about 9:45 p.m. on Sunday night, eight persons, including an eight-month-old baby, were murdered by gunmen suspected to be Fulani herdsmen at Farin Lamba, Vwang District of Jos

“This is as the bandits continue to unleash terror on innocent citizens in some communities of Riyom, Barkin Ladi, Jos South and Mangu Local Government Areas of Plateau State in renewed attacks since after the 2023 General Elections.

“The eight-month-old baby who was murdered with her father was said to be returning from the hospital when they met their untimely death. Before this unprovoked attack, several communities in Riyom, Barkin Ladi, Jos South and Mangu Local Government Area have witnessed the deliberate destruction of farmlands and provocative grazing of over 300 hectares of land.

“Also, there have been daily ambushes and killing of innocent persons on motorcycles after Ta-hoss village in Riyom LGA, along the Abuja highway, which has taken the lives of four persons and one injured,” he said.

TinubuDcrook:
Comrade don tell me that.


Are you trying to tell me that with this ban Yoruba cannot celebrate festivals like new yam festival in Yoruba land ?

And the Yoruba have no leader in KWARA only emir .

This might be why Yoruba Mallams in KWARA move without direction.

Correct me if I am wrong comrade

helinues:
Should you people even be mocking others for loosing territory.

The East lands that were carved into SS alone should be a region on its own.

See beautiful own goal

XerXers:
You are using sit at home to compare losing territory to another tribe?

Town crier

Renowned Ifa priest, Chief Ifayemi Elebuibon, has urged federal and state governments to caution the Emir of Ilorin, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari, and Islamic clerics in the town against action that could breach freedom of association in the town.

Elebuibon was reacting to the cancellation of Isese festival in Ilorin after a traditionalist, Ajesikemi Omolara, was threatened by an Islamic group, reportedly backed by the Emir, not to go ahead with the traditional festival.

But speaking with The PUNCH on Monday, Elebuibon argued that parts of Ilorin are Yoruba land with links with traditional religion. He argued that Ilorin is not an exclsive Arab community.

“It is disheartening that a ruler that was supposed to embrace all religions, would go to the extent of preventing people of other faith from practising their religion.

“We have government at the federal and state levels. They owe us the duty of protection and I find it strange that governments have now relinquished that duty to a ruler who is biased against a particular religion and prevented the adherents from practising their religion. He and those clerics must be cautioned,” Elebuibon said.

He argued further that what the Islamic group did was against the law.

“Their action is against the law but our governments seem helpless. They better wake up to their responsibilities. It is not fair to suppress a religion for another.”

Meanwhile, the Emir of Ilorin, on Monday, directed indigenes of llorin Emirate to sheathe their swords and close communication in the ongoing controversies generated on the Isese festival.

The Emir also told indigenes of the five local government areas that constituted the Ilorin Emirate Council to stop responding to the Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, who had earlier condemned the role played by the Emir forcing traditionalists to cancel the Isese festival.

In a statement by his spokesman, Mallam Abdulazeez Arowona, the Emir noted that peace and tranquility were the major recipes required for the promotion of harmony in the state.

“His Royal Highness, Alhaji (Dr) Ibrahim Sulu-Gambari has ordered that nobody should further express their anger on the Isese festival and Prof Wole Soyinka saga under any guide any longer in the interest of peaceful coexistence and harmonious working environment in Nigeria,” the statement said.
