We know how Yoruba's have asslicked Fulani's for political positions , we have always fearlessly looked Fulani's and Yoruba's in the eye and told them bitter truth since 1966 reasons they have done everything to stop us from been in power cause they know we will divide this country the moment we get into power

Loooool the bitter truth
You means how onyeka wanted abacha to continue ruling
Or how igbos are begging atiku looool Osu Brain thinking
Even 2023 you don’t have confidence to present yourself

9jabull:
To bow for Adebayo, or Bakari or bow for oba has no problem but to bow for Nnamdi kanu is a problem abi?

That’s not a problem
How can you boldly lie you don’t bow for any man

Just wanted to call out ipod hypocrisy

ZombieHUNT:
They should all go back to Benin Republic.... Where they were originally from...

Just like Fulani
Those guys migrated Into this country

E pain you became Igbo only Dey Nigeria

Great Yoruba race

Yes iPods don’t bow to any man only their chi
Nnamdi kanu is their chi and God

Comedian

leokid866:
So it's obvious you have been living under a rock for a long time and have long since left the modern world behind...ps the attachment is from a premium times write up.....there are also several videos online of French soldiers fighting alongside biafran soldiers and bringing in aid via air....I'm sure you will find them if you get closer to Google....

Igbos and truth is like salt and worm

No be today them start

leokid866:
Google is your friend and it's 2020....please stop been stupid and shaming us as a people because when you go out there they won't categories you as an igbo man but a Nigerian.

Second class afonja from bini

No be my forefathers then conquer use 3m do suya

jimyjames:
Ah my second class afonja friend from bini , how is your motuary business moving?

Coming from a second class tribe loool

If western countries are crumbing what is Africa doing ?

Gabkosh:
I wonder o. The war they couldn't fight in

War that you were humiliated smh person Dey use am brag

myobjective:
Kwara Yorubas are educated, I am just replying to his message, sir. I think Ofa people and Kwara south were doing better in the past but Illorin people are catching up now she.

Yorubas generally valued education

Yup to me yoruba Muslims have no other option to be educated if not the Christains will fill every crook and cranny just like what happened in Sierra Leone
It’s a majority Muslim country but the Christians run it cause they are educated

myobjective:
My mother is from Ilorin why dad is Ikare. Muslims from core southwestern states are forced to take education seriously because of the environment they live in but in State like Kwara Yoruba Muslim married too many women thereby rendering their purchasing power useless, yet the women still try to send their children to school due to the culture of excellence of the Yorubas.

Christians basically worship the west, they sing dance in churches, these activities promote western lifestyle and encourage adherence to seek for western education.

You mean ilorin
Kwara Yorubas are well educated

jimyjames:
Lol afonja

Why are you bragging with a war you lost and your kiths were roasted like suya

raumdeuter:
And these people are not p[art time Moslems or Xtians?

Nope pure stock
Go to osun osogbo festival

raumdeuter:
I doubt the core traditionalists are up to 10%. Even the royal fathers even though traditionalists still have a religion, Ooni is a Christian he goes to church, Alaafin is a Moslem he attends Eid
Gani Adams sef na Moslem on the side
Those that are core traditionalists without any mixture are less than 5%

So I can say Xtians about 51%, Moslems about 46% and Traditionalists(without any mix) 3%

Its like a Venn diagram

Traditionalist are a lot especially ogun Oyo and osun those border areas so I say 9%

raumdeuter:
sammy07 and osaze007

you also have to factor in that in Yorubaland many people cant be categorized as Xtians or Moslems because of intermarriages and they openly worship in both places

Tinubu is a Moslem his wife is a Xtian, what do you think the children are? Don't be surprised if the children are both. They go to church and go to mosque. Tinubu himself probably can recite bible and his wife recite koran. Same thing with Saraki, Ajimobi, fashola etc.

I know many people when its time for church they go, when its time for mosque they go

If an average Yoruba person has a small problem he will visit Alfa, Pastors and even Babalawo

To make the research more dynamic
Instead of asking for just one religion a lot of Yorubas practice traditional religion by their side

Only about 10% of the population practices pure traditionalist but
Safe to say 50% of Yoruba Christains visit babalawo

Gbenga daniel is a chronic juju man
Safe to say 50% of Yoruba Muslims visit babalawo
Everyone in Egba knew Amosun was a traditionalist

So
Yorubas most likely are 52% Christians 38% Muslims 10% traditionalist

But when you dig deeper
51% traditionalist
While the other 49% adheres strictly to foreign religion

raumdeuter:
Right now Of 6 governors 5 are Christians. Sanwoolu Abiodun Makinde Fayemi and Akeredolu

Around 2012 about 5 governors were Moslems Fashola, Aregbe, Mimiko, Amosun and Ajimobi

Around 2007 5 governors were Christians Daniels, Agagu, Oyinlola, Fayose, Akala

Around 2002 about 3 governors were Moslems Tinubu, Lam, Akande while 3 were Xtians Adebayo Adefarati Osoba

Bottom line no religion dominates the political landscape, it revolves

True

Sammy07:
Yes, Muslims elites are leading In political things of SW.
that's people thought that SW are predominantly Muslims

It doesn’t work that way in Yoruba Land politics is strictly based on merit Tinubu earned it

Sammy07:
Muslims in Lagos I believe are more than Christians who are YORUBA

Then the figure you gave to Muslims in ekiti is too much...

Muslims in ekiti are not many...

There are some towns in ekiti where you won't find a single Muslim except the Hausa and Fulani barrow pusher.

I should be able to agree with the rest.

Indigenous lAgisions May be predominantly Muslims but most Yorubas in Lagos are not from Lagos that’s why I think overall the Christains are more in Lagos

Even adopting your 40% Christain and 60.% muslim
Christains are still more overall
So far kogi Yorubas ekiti and ondo have over 80% Christians populations.
They remain a predominantly Christian group

Sammy07:
Actually Christians are more than Muslims in SW.
Rough analysis
Lagos...
Excluding Non Yorubas, Yorubas in Lagos are about 60% Muslims - 40% Christians.

Ogun
Excluding Non Yorubas, Yorubas in Ogun are about 80% Christians - 20%muslims

Oyo
Excluding Non Yorubas, Yorubas in Oyo are about 55% Muslims - 45% Christians.

Ondo
Excluding Non Yorubas, Yorubas in Ondo are about 91% Christians - 9%Muslims.

Ekiti
Excluding Non Yorubas, Yorubas in Ekiti are about 98% Christians - 2%Muslims

Osun
They are about 53%Muslims - 47%Christians.

Note that,
there are some towns in Ekiti that doesn't have any Muslim presence.
Only Akoko areas of Ondo State has significant Muslim population.

For me
Lagos - Yoruba christains - 60% Muslims 40%
Ogun - Yoruba Christains - 65% Muslim’s - 35%
Oyo - Yoruba Christains - 45% Muslim’s - 55%
Osun - Christains - 40% Muslims-60%
Ekiti - Christains -80% Muslim’s - 20%
Ondo - Christains -90% Muslim’s -10%
Kwara - Christains -25% Muslim’s - 75%
Kogi Yorubas - Christains - 80% Muslim’s - 20%

Overall christains - 52% Muslim’s -38% traditional -10%

It’s usually northerner that scream Muslims are more

We southerners that have lived in Yoruba land know the Christains are more

The leading political class may be Muslim Bisi Akande and Bola Tinubu
But Yoruba remains a predominantly Christain group
Even Tinubu knows he can’t try much religious wahala in lagos he will loose his empire in a second

The largely Yoruba Christain population in Lagos have favoured him over others

iPod and fear fear

BrownRoofRep:
If you mean Abdulsalami Abubakar - he is a Gwari.
If you mean the current governor of Kwara State he is a Fulani.
Kwankwaso was just a governor.

The fact remains that no Hausa has ever ruled Nigeria.

Nope kwara gov is an Afonja descendant

olril17:
so can you also explained why they are trying to put Jebba in to the Ilorin emirate?
can a pure Yoruba ever become an emir in ilorin?

I’m confused Jebba as an existing Oba Adèbara

MONIKERREVEALER:
