I repeat, that Wikipedia page was written by a yoruba troll. Look for real historical documents, not pieces of garbage written by jingoistic trolls.
See this mumu so Jimmy wales and Larry Sanger are Yoruba names.

So when was the war according to your own source? Counter him with facts and not insults.
Actually, logics doesn't work like this. When you make a claim, you have to provide proof before anybody could take you seriously.

Also, I wasn't concerned about "the war", I was concerned about the obvious lie of oyo seazing a piece of land from the Fulani. That is not substantiated at all.
Also when talking about a civil war, you need the two opponents to belong to the same country, whereas such is not the case with the "yoruba".

THe Oyo referred to in this oriki is the Ago di Oyo, not the empire. This current one is not the same as the empire. It was founded by one prince, hence, Oyo Atiba.
The descendants of those that occupied the old Oyo are the ones in the present Oyo. They are all the same people. Oyo is Oyo.

In summary are you saying there was no yoruba civil war as described in the Wikipedia article that was shared?

In addition, burden of counter-proof resides with you since you do not accept his own source

What don't you understand in " that Wikipedia page", let me repeat my comment so that your empty brain can review it again and again until you understand:

It seems you don't understand that it is ordinary bystanders/trolls who write Wikipedia pages and not Larry Wales who by the way knows nothing about anything.

Actually, once again logics do not work as you describe, if you make a claim, you have to provide proof.
Also I don't need you to rephrase what I said, it was more than clear enough.

You clearly speak just like your age, you thought you went to school but your mind is not emancipated. You picked something from a reputable site but you suspended your brain.
Guards fully clothed in 1600, pictures on the wall in 1600... LoL when was camera invented.

You see why this country can't develop?
You people are so senseless thinking one tribe is better than another.
BKayy:
You mean the Igbo women in your picture that are wearing rare copper spirals worth atleast 12 million Naira in todays amount on their legs are naked?

If you want to talk about people being naked, talk about the Yoruba women in the picture below that the few things they are wearing are worth absolutely nothing

You can't compare yourselves with Ndigbo. There has never been a time we were mates

Yoruba seized Jebba from Fulani when they overran their army...that is why they don't have an emir in Jebba but an Oba
Don't be a misguided fool.
