Your rejection or acceptance of Igbo Muslims means nothing.


Igbo Muslims have no obligation to prove anything to you or anyone else

If there are 2000 comments on a post there,can we see up to 5 comments that are Igbo claiming to be Muslims?


Why is over 99% of those on page of so called Igbo Muslim are Yorubas and Hausafulanis?
You hate the truth.

Islam has been existing in Igbo land for generations and you know it but you will deny the truth.

Igbo Muslims are a minority but they exist and you know but hate to accept the truth.
Besides, Igbo Muslims have no obligation to prove anything to you

The decentralized nature of Igbo cultural setup has made it very difficult for islam to penetrate.

In DJ Trump's words "There's an Islam problem in the world". A religion that destroy people's culture and identity is not something to promote far.

Take a Look at the conquered Yoruba people of Kwara State, they are not allowed to identify with their culture, they can't sight the moon for themselves, otherwise, the Sultan of Sokoto will not take it likely with them, their identity is completely altered, they use Emir of Ilorin and not Oba Ilorin. An educated tribe to say the least in 2026.

In my opinion, the Top most priority on the mind of Yoruba people today should be saving their conquered tribes men other than worry about other courageous tribes that has stood firm against such invasion over time.

It's alarming and worrisome.
All over the world, ma y countries are avoiding Islam... Even the Muslims themselves are running away from their Islamic countries and coming to western countries to convert ! Saudi Arabia the owner of the religion are dropping the religion aspect technically cos it is 15th century mentality

Iranians are tired of being Muslim as we have seen and were burning mosques and their women throwing away hijab saying they want to go back to their original religion of their forefathers

Places like Japan, China , Poland etc don't even want them to have a single mosque. China see it as a mental situation and are treated accordingly! The Igbo and many Niger Delta tribes find it a bit funny and ridiculous!

Why? They have seen how North is turned lately and the division in the west

It's only the fear of death that can convert igho man to Islam, no amount of peaceful words can change Igbo man to Islam because of Igbo culture, you can convert Igbo man to Christianity with words but not islam. The Chinese, polish, Irish, Canadian, Japanese , Igbo cultures etc are all anti islam unless death is involve, Muslim don't like truths

I have explained to you. The word Gambari is a Yoruba word for Hausa and that is where the rest of Nigeria got it. The Emir of Ilorin is NOT a member of the Fulani compound in Ilorin but a member of the Gambari compound. His compound head is Balogun Gambari and not Balogun Fulani.
So, it means that Alhaji Sulu Gambari is a Hausa Emir of Ilorin and not a Fulani. Thanks for this exposition.
When you tell lies to cover the truth, you'll eventually lose the truth and become lost in your lies forever.

He is a Yoruba who is paternally descended from either Hausa, Nupe or Bariba. You can't call him Hausa the same way you can't call a Kano indigene Yoruba despite that many of them are paternally descended from Yoruba

Islam is a minority if Japan, China, Poland etc but to totally say there are no Muslims in those countries must be dumber than Peter Obi. There are loads of Muslims in China and Japan with Chinese mosques are hundreds of year old.
There are Muslims in Igboland who are 100% Igbos and you can hug a transformer if you hate the truth.

Do you know there is a government agency, HAAJI COMMISSION IN ENUGU? Did you think govt would create and be spending money on such agency, if none of her citizens is a Muslim?


Check below and see name of board members during the time of chime in Enugu.

Maybe Enugu is no longer Igbo State.

Igbos are Christians and Christianity is more stupid than Islam. A foreigner died for your past, future and present sins two thousand years ago?. Mind you there is no evil and violence Muslims do that Christians have not done worse. They burnt over 100k people on the stakes in Europe accusing them of witchcraft

You're just spewing propaganda.... Just answer the question. If Islam is that good why want Igbos to be part of it so bad. grin

Europeans, Chinese, Japanese etc are Muslims, so how is it possible for some Igbos not to fall for it?. If it were present in Igbo land early enough, most Igbo would be Muslims

The claim that the Igbo only avoided Islam due to timing is a historical fallacy; proximity doesn't guarantee conversion, as seen in China (1.8% Muslim), Japan (0.3% Muslim), and Europe (6% Muslim), all of which have had contact with the religion for over a thousand years without 'falling for it.' Unlike the centralized northern kingdoms, the Igbo 'Igbo Enwe Eze' (Igbo have no king) social structure meant there was no single ruler to convert and force the religion onto the masses. Combined with a rainforest geography that neutralized northern cavalry, the Igbo weren't 'saved by the clock' it is our decentralized democracy and ancestral traditions made us structurally resistant to the top-down expansion seen elsewhere. grin

Japan, China and Europe had strong governments that restricted Islam. Also Europe already had something worse which was Christianity which made them rivals. In Europe you can't even be in a church denomination not approved by the state in most cases. Igbos had no central government and they were not known to anybody except their immediate neighbors as at the nineteenth century. They had no long distance traders Trade brought Islam to the rest of Nigeria and if Igbos had traders that travelled far and wide back then, their society would have at least partially adopted Islam just like others. All the forested cities in Yoruba land had large numbers of Muslims before colonisation. My grandfather was born in 1908 and his father was a Muslim, his father too would have been a Muslim and I am Ijesa a Yoruba nation in the rain forest. There is nowhere including in Mecca where it happened overnight. It will at first be foreign merchants worshipping in your local mosques then....

Then Japan, China, Europe etc can become Islamic in the future as they are already on the way there. It started in Mecca like that. Nobody could have guessed Mecca would become Muslim

That era is gone for good... That you're alive today is thanks to Christianity if not, you would have been a slave for the Arabs... Christianity brought civilization you're enjoying today. What has islam brought to humanity if not jihad terrorism ?? If China ancestors can stop Islam their progenitor won't be any different, I can be here in Enugu and trade my wares around the globe with no mix of culture or Islam. Even today Islam is being rejected in Iran, China has put restrictions in place to checkmate islam. Islam can never be an Igbo religion. You can wait like saraduna and danfodio then you can join them in grave waiting for igbo people to be Muslim. cheesy

How would the Arabs have enslaved me? The Yoruba have known the Arabs for centuries and there was no time they were in a position to enslave us. They know their territory and we know ours. You seem like a cry baby who thinks Africans were enslaved by anyone they come across. People are waking up against religion now across the world and religion will be eradicated. If however they don't act, then it can grow gradually and eat up any society. That is common sense. No society is immune. It applies to both Christianity and Islam. They are both scourges. You thank Christianity for being alive not me. That is the level of your understanding. Christianity is more ridiculous than Islam, has caused more violence than Islam and etc. A Christian is not by any means justified to say he or she is thinking deeper or better than a Muslim.
Some Igbos are already Muslims. So there is nobody waiting for Igbos to be Muslims.
