[b]Afonjo [/b]was a warrior from Ibadan. One of the warriors serving under the Alaafin of Oyo in the Oyo Empire. Fearless and Brave but and the long run became careless, He trusted the Fulanis and that caused him Ilorin which was is domain.

I hope history does not repeat itself with the Yooba Representative. Well, Trusting all will be well smiley

I resurrect this thread NOW.
Re: What Is The Real Meaning Of Afonja ? by phreakabitoo: 1:35pm On Jul 17, 2018
The word was first used on this forum by Mrchippychappy... this was back when him, myself, Ak47man,Odumchi,Redsun,maziuche,PointB,onlytruth and a very few others were the only Igbos on NL.
Back then Dayokanu,Bkbabe97y,Shymexx and his other account Bittyend,ilekeidi,desola, ektbear and the others were always poking fun at Igbos and the mods weren't doing anything about it. So we had to return the favour. Anyways somewhere along the line Mrchippychappy decided to name them descendants of the historic Yoruba military General(Aare Ona Kakanfo) to the Alaafin of old Oyo empire named Afonja, who conivied with the Fulanis to rebel against the Alaafin, after seceding from the oyo empire, he Ilorin, he invited the Fulanis to come stay in Ilorin with him, but he was assassinated by them and they took over the throne and the town....Hence the on going slave/master relationship between the S.West and the North......
