We yorubas muslims are more in population.

That we don't make noise like muslims in north doesn't mean we are minority.

We have at least the 80% of the population,

minus Ibos that fill all part of our land,where are the christians?

Go to church on sundays then check how many of it members that are yorubas.

Start with all this one shop church.

You're right! I do a lot of research work that involves the use of questionnaire and one on one interviews which shows a higher percentage of the Yorubas are Christians. They are more in Osun and Oyo states, but Ondo and Ekiti has very few, while Lagos and Ogun has a bit of both. However, my personal observation is that the Muslims support each other more, hence their ability to get financial aid easily and do better in businesses
The yoruba muslims can do all sot of work regardless of their fate. There are some kind of professions good Christians will not involve themselves why the Muslims will do it. Christians avoid this kind of work because they don't like a profession that can bring them closer to sin.
Many good Christians will avoid profession like lawyer, politics, military, police force, customs etc. If u find out, u will know Muslims are more in this area of profession than Christians. So this makes it looks as if Muslims are more than Christians in d South west.

I totally disagree. I think the difference mainly is in education, The Christians are generally more educated and proceed to higher education. Maybe because many schools are misionary schools and Islam used to be looked down on as if na illiterates dem be. Thus you have more Moslems converting to Xtianity than reverse

It is changing now and more moslems are going further in academics and top careers

Any profession that requires higher education will have more Xtians, Among artisans there will be more moslems

We can't use Politicians or elected politicians to judge
In ondo they are up to 10%
Remember some akoko areas are predominantly Muslims
I am from Akoko area in Ondo State, Ikare Akoko in particular. This is a meaningless question, we Yoruba see ourselves first through our ethnic identity, religion is in material bro.

Muslims are the majority in Akoko with Ikare the largest in the senatorial district, there also Muslim in Owo and Ondo town. In summary, Muslim will be 25% to 30% of the state.

Real Muslims in Yoruba land are not up to 10%. Many have Muslim names but are not Muslims. Yorubas are enlightened people. Enlightenment and Islam does not mix. You must be extremely dumb to be a Muslim. Many of my friends are Muslims by name but we all know they give no fvck about Islam.
On the contrary, the most gullible people on earth are Christians. It is the dumbest religion on earth with so many red flags.

This will be the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read in my entire life. You mean Muslims of Yoruba origin are not educated like the Christians and they don’t proceed to higher institutions in their entirety??

What kind is statement is this? You should modify this post coz it’s baseless bro. In all institute of learning, we have both Muslims and Christians leading classes and excelling in their professions and it will be absurd for anyone to think otherwise.

Some Muslims are even always profiled to be too brilliant that some always attribute it to them drinking hontu.

This argument on this thread is baseless. How will you categorize Yorubas into Muslims/Christians/traditionalist when people frequent those other religious institution and intermarry?

You are right about Muslims converting to Christian and that is due to the fact that churches do a lot of miracles and crusades such that people always go to churches for their problem to be solved. Thats why women form the bulks of the converts.

My mom was a Muslim before, she switched to Christianity. Dad is still a Muslim, my brother are Muslim and Christian anytime they like and I personally identify as a Muslim.

Now brother how will I categorize my religion based on my family analogy?

Seriously. The only Christian group that looks a little bit okay is the Jehovah witness. The rest are on another level of absurdity.

Mehn the ones I feared most are the Jehovah witness. They won’t allow me rest when I was still an undergraduate. I will tell them I’m a Muslim, but yet they will still want to read their book to me and I always don’t wanna talk harsh to them.

Although their doctrine is truly different from the rest of the Christianity tho.

The only thing I dislike about churches is the noise from their loudspeaker during night vigil that time. Mehn those people suffer me.

Muslims from core southwestern states are forced to take education seriously because of the environment they live in but in State like Kwara Yoruba Muslim married too many women thereby rendering their purchasing power useless, yet the women still try to send their children to school due to the culture of excellence of the Yorubas.

Christians basically worship the west, they sing dance in churches, these activities promote western lifestyle and encourage adherence to seek for western education.

Let me ask, Did you go to a University in the Southwest? Not Ilorin
