So the emir in Ilorin is a Yoruba man?
Emir is symbol of islam. ilorin was a muslim region centuries before coming of alimi..if ilorin wasn't a muslim city why would they have fulani living among them some in the royal guard some Muslims slaves Hausa and Fulani won't lived with them ..hausa slaves were used in battles as well

My brothers who mentioned the Igbo

The igbo are a holy people

The igbo and yoruba were taken in chains as slaves as predicted by the most high in deuteronomy

Have you ever heard of any black american or carribean person claiming benin descent??

Benin people are not from the most high God

We are hebrews and we need to stick to our brothers only

know your enemies my people

The fulani are also a hebrew tribe

They are our brethren

Our king defeated the italians (Mussolini) in the battle of adowa 2

The only african country not colonized

Ethiopia

King Haille Selassie Qadamawi Most high of israel

Benin are a gentile nation, people who sacrifice human beings

Come out of her my people
So who enslaved the Yoruba and Igbo? Please don't tell me it was Benin.

Just imagine how uneducated you are? What concern me if he or she is from the heart of Usen? You rant as if you can look me up in the eyes in real life but you wouldn't dare it. Only coward rant like you and your Edo alikes online. Is Akoko Edo not Edo again? I thought you people claim, there are no one in Edo that bear full Yoruba names. I had thought you people from Edo who were exposed to civilization didnt learn anything from Yorubas? Set of confused people. You are so uncultured for insulting my personality but I know the reason and I mock you. I am doing this for my ancestors because of your dirty lies online and I will continue to quash your filthy lies. And others and I who write for Yoruba online with more fact have given more evidence than your so called fairy tale that is absolutely absurd,which is the reason you're hurt by the truth.... Go hit your head at a wall if you hate the truth. You are even lucky that your Oba gave gift to one of my ancestor to appease him when he went to your small village called Bini,which was created by by one of the strongest yoruba prince known as Odede or Oranmiyan. You are beneath me....Emi omo asè akoko yigbo yigbo..Emi Omo Kaare Oba mi...

gregyboy:
Have u read the benin akure chiefs....just goggle you ser why you see benins having Yoruba names not only yoruba names Igbo names as wells as urohobo making sound its only yoruba binis bear thier names make you look ignorant ...

Benin bear names like ojo idowu etc this are Benin's who ruled yoruba state and later came back to benin after benin fell to british to help oba akenzuwa restore bck benin

Names like oghene ese, efe,most urhobo bear the name also benin do also

Names like okoro,okojie which both deltans and igbos bear are also names in edo....

The problem with nigerians is we tend to leave the pre indepence history and focus on the post indepence history.... History were also made after 1897 after the fall of benin the oba was given two choice to remain in seat either he marries a white lady or he gives up his vassal territories and stay in Nigeria which he made a choice to give up his territories than to have a white lady in benin stool ...benin chiefs all over its territories all came back to benin to help benin build it state back after the destruction they brought new names like the yoruba names you see edo bear some also stayed behind...i leave you to judge
Your long epistle just confirms what I have been saying, that several core Edo people bear Yoruba names. sad I do not know why or how those Edo people came about their Yoruba names, but I know they bear such names even though they don't speak a word of Yoruba language. You need to enlighten your sister EdoNation, so that she can acquire some understanding on this subject. undecided

Do you know that your Oni which u worship is actually descendant of Oduduwa’s slave who usurped the throne after Oduduwa died and not Oduduwa lineage?
Do you know that the area we now refer to as Eastern Yoruba is actually Western Edo?

Truth is bitter but you will be forced to swallow it.

So is the emir Yoruba or Hausa/Fulani.. or you Dey shame to admit the truth that Yorubas are Fulanis subjects?

Benin kingdom/Edo people didn’t really participate in slave trade. It was outlawed in all Edo territories. That’s why you don’t see any slave descendants or history of slavery in Edolands including Eastern Yoruba (also known as Western Edo)..

It was the Yorubas selling themselves.. Oyo selling almost western Yorubas into slavery.
I think it was the ijaws that was kidnaping and selling the igbos into slavery.

Please don’t tell me you are daft like babaramota and moorish..
this argument is about tribe not religion.. there are Muslims in every tribe in Nigeria. The point is the ruler of Yorubas of Ilorin is a Fulani man. Yorubas are synonymous with servitude.

Because Yoruba colonized and civilized them. We have been asking them to explain the foreign attributes in their culture and society but they are mute.

Explain your foreign Oba, you no fit; Explain foreign names you are given, you no fit.
Explain ekaladheran's crime, you no fit;
Explani the buried heads of your kings in Ife, you no fit.

Everytime you are cornered you run to grab Hausa/Fulani for cover....

Leave fulani alone and stop using them for your escape. This is between Yoruba and Edo.

Explain how and why foreing monarchy and culture rule over you.

Which culture is foreign in Edo or foreign Monarchy in Edo?
Go do your research again.. Why is it claimed that Eastern Yoruba shows traces of Edo culture and not Yoruba culture?
Babaramota I have said it before that you are deluded.
Your Oni that you worship is a descendant of Oduduwa’s slave and not Oduduwa lineage. So you see why I say slavery and servitude is synonymous with Yoruba.

How can I be under you when my ancestors invaded your town that belonged to Ogiamien? Whatever name you refer here only show how unintelligent you are. Any way, I leave you to your delusion. Yoruba reign over your land locked Edonation,with less than 2.5 million in population. I spit on your mannerless writing online.

See this mugu that said Oba of Benin is Yoruba now desperately defending Emir of Ilorin as Yoruba and not a Fulani.
Emir of Ilorin is full blooded Fulani man that is ruling yorubas. His staffs are Fulanis, his bodyguards are Fulanis, he hangs out and parties with Fulanis. Yorubas are just his conquered subjects.

Ekiti, ondo and environs are all Western Edo. Even Ekiti and ondo governments recognize Edo as part of the people’s culture. Till tomorrow seniors citizens in Idanre and other parts of western Edo still speak the Edo language.
And FYI Yoruba juju don’t work on Edo people. You guys tried it during the period we were conquering you it didn’t work.

This pictures shows exactly what I’m talking about. The emir of Ilorin is full blooded Fulani man. Look at the people sitting around the emir, they are all Fulanis and dressed in Fulani attires.
In this modern era Yorubas are still in servitude to Fulanis.. what a shame!!
