[s]
There was once Sharia law introduced by an Oba of Ede who had lived in the North for many years before becoming the Timi of Ede

His reign was so horrible that the People of Ede in Osun State swore his descendants would never rule Ede again that was over 150

Years ago and to this day none of his descendants has been allowed to mount the Throne of Ede Town again

That was when Yorubas started using the Proverb “Won da Seria fun “ which means “ He was given the Sharia Punishment “

to describe a very Cruel type of punishment
[/s]
Yorùbá Christians with their lies, Timi Lagunju was described by missionaries as very tolerant and peaceful, the only people who complain about him were bulgars, bandits, prostitutes, adulterer/adulteress and other criminals. So my guess is you're probably a descendant of one of the above mentioned.

Oba Lagunju as described by historians: Timi Lagunju effectively checked all forms of stealing and burglary. If anyone was caught in the act of stealing, the Timi would sell him into slavery and would also sell members of his family. A few men having been made examples, all potential thieves were effectively checked

If only other Muslims could practice their religion like the Yorubas then the world would be much peaceful than what we are seeing with Muslims from northern Nigeria and other Arab nations.

Mali and Senegalese are fulani.
Besides, you claim Christianity was imposed through slavery, colonization, deceit and oppression.
Remind me what happened in Ilorin again.
How did the whole northern emirs become Fulani?
At least Christianity was never forced on anybody by the colonialists. If you have evidence of such, show it. Unfortunately, the Hausas can't say same.
Mali and Senegalese aren't Fulanis, a simple research would've helped you but as usual you'd type rubbish.

Christianity that forced and deceptively converted Muslims? Demanding Muslims change their names and religion just to be educated? grin

Thank me later. I hope you know Fulani are the most itinerant tribe with colonisation in their blood.
Secondly, let's assume you're right Muslim were forced to change their names and religion to attend missionary schools. You need to know that going to school was not by force then. There was no constitution that guaranteed rightful or mandatory schooling then. It's called prerequisite. Just as you have to pass common entrance and cut your hair to attend some female schools then. It was never by force. It was a choice. You either shape in or ship out. The Muslims could have attended quraniyya schools instead. No one will arrest them for it.

Only an illiterate without common sense will believe Yoruba muslims are fanatics.

I went to a Catholic school in Lagos, and some of my classmates back then were Muslims, I am talking of those rich Awori Muslims. Guess what? We attended Mass service together, twice every week.

During Sallah, we go to their houses to eat Sallah meat. We were one United Family. Never at any point in time did religious tension arise throughout my six years in high school.

Its only in the South West that you will have Alhaji as a Father, Deaconess as a mother, and Alhaji will drop his family in church on Sundays.

Only in South West Nigeria, have I seen Muslim families asking a pastor to come pray for them.

South Western muslims will even tell Christians going to church on Sunday, "pray for me too ooo"

South Western muslims are enlightened and educated. They don't give room for religious idiocy and fanatism.

South West muslims will come to your house and finish your Christmas food.
Dem no send you.

South West Christians will even attend the naming ceremony of a Muslim child, they will even play with Alfa, and eat enough food.

South West Christians will even buy Sallah ram for some mosques.

Do you know that South Westerners will have a Muslim landlord, Christian tenants, and they will live together for 10 years without ever having religious conflicts

If they are trying to break South West with religion, they have failed already. No SW muslim will ever take to terrorism and fanatism. This Sharia is dead and buried. Not going to work in the SW.

Like every group of people on planet earth, there is always these 0.00000000001% of traitors, backstabbers and idiots. Therefore, SW Nigeria is not an exception. There is that 0.000000001% SW Muslims who are backstabbers, just because of what they will eat or benefit. However, they are inconsequential to the task of having Sharia law in the SW.

I hate people who go ahead of themselves, your screenshot rightly pointed majority of Senegalese and Malians aren't Fulanis. Now my challenge to you is, give me evidence of these Senegalese or Malian Fulanis(<20%) bringing Islam to Nigeria, mind the early Hausas who became Muslims were from these same Senegalese. All the contacts Yorùbá had with Islam from Mali weren't from Fulanis, i challenge you to disprove this.

It's only a fool that'll deny what happened during the colonial era to Muslims especially in Yorùbáland, this today is one of the reasons why the Muslims are disadvantaged in terms of education due to policies by the missionaries as protected by the colonialists. Demanding Muslims to change their religion and names, all Muslims that went in came out as Christians, Rasheed became Richard, no matter how you deny this, it'll continue to be a fact.

I wouldn't even go to how Yorùbá Christians mistranslated the Quran and used it to proselytize Muslims. The wickedness and deceit of you guys is second to none, not even igbos do this. I don't see the igbos or northerners as enemies rather it's you guys, all the court cases regarding Hijab aren't against igbos or northerners but Yoruba Christians. Igbos or northerners don't pull hijab from the head of Muslim kids, it is Yorùbá Christians who always claim we're one with them that do this shit

My first sentence. Fulani are the most itinerant tribe in West Africa. The evidence abounds everywhere. It's funny you made an assertion without proof but ask me to disprove it. I already gave you proof that Fulani from Senegal and Mali colonised you guys using Islam. That's why till today, the sultan is the one who sights the moon on your behalf.

It's even worse if you believe Hausas brought Islam to you guys. Hausas are slaves of fulani which makes you slave of slaves.

Lol. Do you even hear yourself? You're blaming Christians for the backwardness of Muslims. Like Christians are supposed to ensure Muslims are educated. This is very funny. If Rasheed became Richard in a missionary school. Blame not the missionary school. Instead blame Rasheed who chose to go there. Or was he forced there? You claim your Islam is better than Christianity. Yet you want to enjoy the benefits of Christianity which is education. How shameless!!

And how we sight our moon isn't your business

It's even worse if you believe Hausas brought Islam to you guys. Hausas are slaves of fulani which makes you slave of slaves.

I never said Hausa brought Islam to us, did I? And you need to stop talking about slave this slave that. Christianity was brought to you through slavery, you were subdued by British guns and they pumped in missionaries who deceived y'all into Christianity. You don't get to talk about slavery when major proponents of the Christian faith in Yorùbá land were former slaves grin grin

Mali and Senegalese aren't Fulanis, a simple research would've helped you but as usual you'd type rubbish.
This was ur initial statement which I debunked by sharing those pages with you then you jumped to the question of majority. I hope you realise both Mali and Senegal have fulani presidents presently. Besides, statistics wise, there are more Fulani per person in Mali and Senegal than you have Yoruba in Nigeria. Yoruba are about 15% while Fulani are 16 and 17 in both countries. So obviously if Yoruba with 15% can be a majority tribe in Nigeria, how much more 16% and 17%?

On the issue of how Islam came to Yorubaland, I wanted to paste historical links and texts but I decided it will be a waste of time since you're obviously biased against facts and have chosen to sentimentally hold on to lies and innuendos to further your baseless arguments. So I'll just write out some basic statements of fact. If you want to dispute them as lies, feel free to consult Google. Also, anyone reading can also check online and know who is making sense between you and I.

The late waziri of Ilorin olusola saraki when asked of his ancestry claimed his forbears were fulani Islamic scholars who came from Mali to teach Islam in Ilorin. But that's not all. Like I told you, if Islam was brought to Yoruba land from Mali, then every evidence of culture and social assimilation point to the fulani as the agents. For example, fulani emir exists in Ilorin and other places in the north. So if you as Yoruba Muslims accept the authority of the sultan to sight the moon on your behalf and give spiritual direction as the supreme authority on Islamic affairs, it's because you recognise that they colonised you.

It's even very funny. You accuse Christianity of being a product of slavery. Yet Nigerian Christian pastors are all over the UK leading churches. Come and show me chief imam of a mosque in Kano who is Yoruba. An average Hausa wouldn't even allow you to lead him in prayers cause he sees you as lesser Muslim to him. What bigger slavery exists than that. When will a Yoruba become chairman of NSCIA? You guys gleefully complain about the transatlantic slave trade while you conveniently ignore the trans-saharan slave trade that was majorly carried out by your Muslim superiors which you remain subservient to spiritual wise till today.

Like I already told you and you can't argue, no one forced them to go to the school. If they didn't want to be "forcefully converted" they could have avoided missionary schools all together. Is that not what Boko haram is fighting for? Why do you want Sharia but want to attend missionary schools? Should you not first fight for Muslim children to attend quraniyya schools first before fighting for Sharia? What manner of hypocrisy is dis?

And yes. Christians wear choir robes to school for harvest thanksgiving, mass and other spiritual programs. So ansarudeen should allow them wear those robes on such days if they want to be what you claim they are.
Pls show me pictures of Christians wearing berets in ansarudeen schools. Which Christian will even allow his children go to ansarudeen with their very low standards when compared to missionary schools which y'all lust after.

You Yoruba Muslims are just suffering from inferiority complex. You want to attend missionary school but want to wear hijab. Same way one girl was called to the bar and wanted to wear hijab when we've had a female CJN from the core Muslim North who never wore hijab under her wig. Talk about looking to be more Muslim than Shekau.
