TAO11:
The “no man’s land” label is in fact rooted in inferiority complex.

Those who use the label are not merely inferior, they also unknowingly affirm & admit their own inferiority whenever they make that statement.

I don’t even care what they think it’s is

You can stop beer Parlour narratives

Christistruth00:


I put the History there so our Youths will not be misled by some IPOB or other Cyber Bandits into thinking they are strangers in Lagos.

Any one that calls Lagos no man land is just as delusional as those who think there’s nothing like SS

Christistruth00:








All Yorubas see the Ooni of Ife as the foremost Yoruba King

Don’t let me School you on Lagos or Awori History

The Oba of Lagos is an Ijesha Man by lineage

The Ijesha link to Lagos dates back to about 1200 AD when Oduduwa sent his Grandson who became the first king of the Ijesha People to Lagos to fetch Sea Water as Part of a Cure for his failing eyesight

That is why the king of Ilesha is titled “ Owa Obokun” which means “he who fetches Water from the Sea”.

The Awori are 100% Yorubas and from Ife Originally

Lagos is Aworiland

Lagos is 100% Yorubaland



On the day the British Colonial Government first landed in Lagos in 1851 Oyo controlled Badagry Area Which they had taken from the king of Dahomey along with Porto Novo (Ajase) in War . The Oyos had fought Dahomey as Allies of the Eguns
Aare Oona Kakanfo oyabi had led the Oyo Army

The Abeokuta Egba Army Controlled all of Lagos Mainland Which they had won in the Ota War of 1842 in Which the Oyos of Ibadan fought as Allies of Oba Kosoko and the Awori and received such a heavy defeat at the hands of the Egbas that the Ibadan Army had to be smuggled back home.

The whole Episode almost led to the downfall of Basorun Oluyole back at Ibadan

The Ijebu Controlled Everything East of Lekki

All Oba Kosoko Controlled was the Slave market and Port of Isale Eko on Lagos Island, Even Ikoyi belonged to the Onikoyi who was an Oyo man

Again if you hear that Yorubas spent 100 years fighting themselves till 1878,

Just know that the Egba, Ijebu and Oyo Which included Ibadan were fighting for Control of the Coast of Lagos

Control of the Coast of Lagos meant Titanic Wealth. but unfortunately much of that was from the Slave trade

The Lagos territory Controlled by the Egbas , Oyo and Oba Kosoko belonged to the Awori People who were the most Peaceful and accommodating of all Yoruba Clans


Eko is Yoruba short for Ereko which means field and for Confirmation Ereko Market where the Egbas and Ijebu traded is still on Lagos Island today

Also Eko Ende in Osun State was one of the Locations of the Jalumi War of 1878

The Awori have inhabited Lagos since the 13th Century when they migrated from Ile Ife led by Olofin Ogunfuminire who was a great grandson of Oduduwa and a nephew of Oranmiyan who headed to Benin around the same period

The Land on Which Isale Eko of the Oba of Lagos is located belongs to the Awori Yoruba Aromire family till today

Aromire was one of the Sons of Olofin Ogunfuminire

The Otun Ekiti People migrated from Lagos in the 15 th Century and share the same ancestry with the Awori of Lagos

You have time

MrMaestro:

Many people suffer from Yorubaphobia unfortunately.

Typical Fulani go and duck your cows anus

buckeyemedia:
Na the Military build the airport for Akure, Federal money, Ondo state no fit built airport, since 1999 actually no where in the South west done build airport since the return to democrazy. Ironically My friend flew through the airport yesterday to Murtala Domestic overland Airways she said the size of the departure lounge is the size of 2 living rooms combined, soo small, and what was my response to her? & Some misguided infants will be shouting Oduduwa.

This one is suffering from chronic Yorubaphobia

buckeyemedia:
Go & explain this your jargon theory to The Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, you can move to Dahomey or Lomé, no one is giving even a half plot of land in Lagos State to you or any other foreigners.

Looool Anambra is Igala land

neyohh:


That wasn't what he said.

Again, he said, Muslim's should be free to wear hijab.

Hope you get it now.

I’m done discussing with a jihadist

neyohh:



Essentially this has nothing to do with southerner's and that was the point all along.

Just discrediting the link between wearing hijab and backwardness & the right to religious freedom.

You can’t “impose” hijab on private spaces sha

neyohh:


There's no point complicating something so obvious.

I don't do semantics, only logic.

Sultan said let's allow Muslims to dress freely, why complicate it by comparing apples to oranges.

Sultan of Fulanis
No one has stopped Fulanis and Hausa. From dressing freely

dammyllare:



Are you minding the idiot?
The truth is they (yoruba Muslims) would have been worst than their northern counter part if not for free education that they enjoyed.
They still wallow in self pity and hopefully expecting their selves to practice what is obtainable in the north but they know they would never be able to over run the South with their useless ideologies....
Even after this country divide, the people to fear the most are the Yoruba Muslims who are always living in fear that they would loose their religion

Not all Yoruba Muslims but a section of them 20-30%

Since they started learning from Ilorin and adopted sultan of sokoto has their leader I knew their will soon be disharmony among the social fabric of yoruba land

In an independent Yoruba nation we can agree to rules like that but under Nigeria with Fulani Islam leaders we can’t agree to such

neyohh:


Very counter intuitive.. liberalism means respecting everyone's rights including Muslim's, but your lack of intelligence won't allow you understand .

You don't need liberalism, what you need is iq!.

You only responded with insult sha no logical response

Eifour:


Bro,I must first commend your civility at least you are not indulging in gutter argument this common on this platform.

But what discussion should a Muslim who feels he has been marginalised by the legacy left behind by the white colonial masters?plus, the questions of religion are fundamental questions which urgently needed to be attended to in Nigeria,we cannot pretend religion questions are inconsequential.And besides on several occasions had the Sultan lamented the problems that bedevil the country and in his own little way he has proffered solutions.And in the write-up above Sultan's talk covers more than the problems that border only on religion.
I do never push for the use of hijab in
missionary schools but only at the government institutions.
Let me shock you and I stand to be corrected,Muslims here in Southwest are more tolerant than the Christians.I challenge you to go to any Islamic oriented school under the government,the christians there are not ordered or forced to use hijab infact they are being allowed to use beret.Whereas it is no if we should turn the table.

Why not let the Christain students not use beret

neyohh:



Let's repeat what he said. ..

Allow Muslims to dress in hijab freely, that's it!.

All these emotional rants are meaningless because southerners are living as they please already.

It's terrible when you guys conflate religion with development because as far as I know some Islamic countries are doing way better than western wannabe southerners.

As a Yoruba man yourself, how will you stop your Muslim Yoruba brother's from practising their religion let alone the north.

Between why are you so angry about hijab? I just don't get it.

I’m confused when have Yoruba Muslims being banned from wearing hijab in public spaces ?

NaijirianKing:
This is a welcomed development, pragmatically speaking, Nigeria is a Muslim majority country and Islam is Nigeria's dominant religion. Unfortunately, some Muslims are not allowed to practice their faith in peace, imagine a school girl having her hijab ripped off at her school in the SW.

Such freedoms should be guaranteed by law. Development can only happen when there is strict adherence to rule of law and religious freedom. Let's live together in harmony.

Aboki you don’t speak for Yoruba Muslims

BeansAndBread:
Leave Fulani out of this, it's nauseating. If the Muslims can get Shari'ah for their affairs in Yorùbá republic, then we'll support it. Lagos Muslims have been asking for it since 1896, how can we be denied for so long and then when we finally move to a place we call our own, we'll now be denied again? No o, every one must be represented and the Muslims ask for this

Fulani rule Islam in Nigeria so we can’t leave them out it it
And btw a lot of yoruba Muslims don’t want it
So try convincing the secular Yoruba Muslims
In a Yoruba nation snd a supreme Islamic councils filled with Yoruba Muslims such can be entertained

Kaduna1stson:

We the north will never allow yoruba to have their own country. We need access to the sea in Lagos and Ogun

Get ready to pay tax like you did to Alaafin of oyo

BeansAndBread:
There are Shari'ah courts in Kwara State, now stop repeating this dumb rhetorics in my mention Yoruba Christian

When we have our own Independent nations we will consider it but now we say no TO FULANI sponsored shariah

emerged01:

People that have access to internet always believe their opinions matter on those who does not. PFN doesn’t need to say anything sharia law it will not stand in Southwest,no matter how they try.
If eventually Sharia comes to reality in Southwest,you will see how yoruba Muslims will convert to Christians because of the so called law. No Yoruba no be Hausa.

If you know the number of Muslims that converted to Christianity over ile kewu treatment

With sharia law policing morals more of them will even convert lol

BeansAndBread:
Common and customary law

Your still spreading this fake info

BeansAndBread:
If Yorùbás are truly omoluabis, then Yorùbá land would be heaven. Apart from Lagos, which other state is functioning? Be truthful to yourself na

Mr Ilorin why not institutionalize sharia in your Ilorin & offa Na by force to do sharia for Yoruba land
Secular Muslims have said no
The entire Yoruba Christaindom has said no
Your jihad has failed as it has been failing since 1600s
Useless Fulani slave

omoharry:
Oo! I see .Thanks for the clarification.. let us see how they intend to arms-twist the state governors in the south west to implement it . Maybe Osun will do it but i don’t know about other south western state .

It’s not possible in Osun it’s religiously mixed the worker is a Christian

NaijirianKing:
Fulani are being attacked in Kwara state... imagine being attacked on your home soil. And you are here talking about farmlands...

Eventually Fulani will strike back and then everyone will begin to call Fulani all sorts of names. But, let's record this day, Kwara is Fulani land, and Fulani are being attacked in that very same Kwara... and yet you are so tribalistic and bias that you justify Fulani being attacked on their home soil.

Continue, this will only cause reprisal attacks and more insecurity... Nigeria, Nigeria, which way??

No I see your not a Yoruba Muslim has you claimed
Your a fake Fulani Muslim and this as opened you up
Loool

babaolofin:


All this nonsense you wrote here have no meaning in Yoruba land. I only read two sentences and stopped. The Supreme Council for Sharia in Nigeria or the Caliphate cannot impose Sharia in South West. You guys are jokers.

While Abiola was alive despite his Islamic fanaticism before his imprisonment, he knows Sharia is not possible in Yoruba land. Some of his wives practice Christianity and some both. Religion is not used for appointments in Yoruba land. Mimiko, late Ajimobi and Tinubu have Christian wives. Late Chief Wahab Iyanda Folawiyo and Arisekola both knew the cosmopolitan nature of the Yorubas.

Alimi came to Ilorin as a pauper and as a beggar looking for survival for his family and Cattles. Out of sympathy, Afonja accommodated him. You cannot bring the Caliphate dominion of the South West using religion. You are day dreaming. The South West cannot be used as a pipe to penetrate the South again. We have no land for Cattles reserve or Ruga and have zero tolerance for terrorism and Islamist insurgency.

We know where you are going. We are waiting for you. The G5 Sahel countries of Chad, Niger, Mali and others have no peace. There are outflows from Libya, Sudan and Northern Cameroon. You cannot use Islam as a platform to penetrate South West, it would be resisted. I see all your discussion and that of fake omo Oodua and bread and beans as childish.

We have religious harmony in South West. The Northern Sharia Council cannot create crisis in South West using Islam. MURIC be warned.

I can see right through Satan of sokotosplan to export violence in Yoruba land

BeansAndBread:
We'll shock you then

You can’t even implement it in kwara where there’s outright Muslim dominance

You don’t get it
The Yoruba man rather be judged his own cultural way than through Islam or Christianity

Open grazing remains banned in southern Nigeria

Coronabirus:
Ignorance is a disease. All these Islamaphobia won't let u get sense. Constitution of the FRN allow every state to make laws based on their culture and traditions with National law superseding all other laws. In this case, Customary court is adopted in most Christian dominated areas even in the entire North. Perhaps the provision of justice & the extent of jurisdiction in ur book is too limited to guide Christian court that is why u chose customary court but does choosing customary court differentiate u with Muslims who chose Shari'a court? Is the matter of choice which is giving Christianity fanatics headache.
The extreme religious persecution & subjugation in Yoruba Land is the most brutal.
There are other cases in reference and examples of the violation of the civil rights of Muslims in Yorubaland. Muslim female teachers who went for a promotion interview in Abeokuta (Thursday 15 th April, 2021) were told that they must remove their hijab before they could be interviewed. The Muslim girl-child is being stigmatized in the school and sometimes locked out of the classroom on account of an ordinary headscarf.
“The hijab of the Muslim girl-child is yanked off her head by Christian teachers who are also Yorubas. Muslim girls are beaten up and sent back home. Muslim parents suffer this humiliation on a daily basisin Yorubaland. Muslim males are forced to remove their caps and turbans. Some are forced to shave their beards before being attended to by government civil servants who are also Yorubas. Court cases which bother on the infringement of Allah-given fundamental human rights of Yoruba Muslims litter courts in the region.
“Political appointments are reserved mainly for Christians while Muslims who constitute the majority are ignored. There are only four Muslims among the fourteen (14) commissioners in Oyo and Ogun states where the governors are Christians. All the board chairmen in the two states are Christians except the Muslim Pilgrims Board and the governors have ignored the complaints of Muslims. In Ekiti State, Fayose ran an all-Christian cabinet. In Oyo State, the hijrah holiday which was declared by a former Muslim governor, Isiaka Ajimobi, has been annulled by Seyi Makinde, a Christian governor.
“Muslims are also totally marginalized in the education sector. Christians are in charge in the ministries of education in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti and Ondo. All the teaching service commissions TESCOM) are headed by Christians. Some of the heads are even church clerics. A pastor is the chairman of Ogun State TESCOM while an evangelist heads the Ogun State commission. We believe this is a deliberate and strategic ploy to perpetuate Christian hegemony in the education sector in Yorubaland. This is the machinery of oppression and it has served in the repression of hijab-wearing female Muslim students and teachers. The perpetrators persecute Muslims with impunity since they are assured of official protection up to the office of the commissioner of education.
“Mathew Obasanjo throughout his tenure appointed all Christian ministers from SW throughout his administration & never appointed a single Muslim COAS, to reduce the perception of ethno-religious bigotry he appointed a Southern Kaduna Christian COAS. Former President Goodluck Jonathan (2011 – 2015) appointed six (6) ministers from Yorubaland and all of them were Christians.
“We are nonplussed that Afenifere has never commented on the above maltreatment of Muslims that has lasted decades (since independence) in its domain but it revels in joining Ohaneze of the South East and the Middle Belt Forum in complaining about marginalisation, nepotism and Islamisation which they claim began six years ago.
“We call on Afenifere to put its house in order first. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. For now Yoruba Muslims see no difference between Afenifere and the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). In fact, the former looks more like the political wing of the latter in the South West.
We are waiting earnestly to know which way the cat will jump as regards Afenifere and the Muslim 2023 presidential candidate.

Yes Yoruba Christians are terrorist loool classic copy & paste from muric website

Come with a more logical argument not copying from muric website

The question is should we start operating a religious based system in Yoruba land

Because last I checked 90% of Lagos law makers are Muslims and Lagos indigenes aren’t 90% Muslims

So is that what you want representation based on religious make up

NaijirianKing:
Not 70%... smh

The real population totals are closer to:

A) Islam 46%
B) christianity 34%
C) traditional ~ 19%

Assuming your fake statistics
Can’t you see the non Muslims are more

NaijirianKing:
Just book mark this, Sharia courts will be built in the south. This is not something we have to argue, we know how this will end. The will of the people is like a surging ocean.

Yes since it’s done over nairaland comment
