Yoruba people combine religion with politics, when a Christian rule they become christian when Muslims they turn to Muslims, Yoruba don't belong to any religion they switched in and out in order to be favour.

There are by far more Christians in Yorubaland than Muslims.

It is just that the Muslims appear more vocal...

Islam came to the Yoruba by
the peaceful way, not by jihad..

That is why you don't have a fanatical
do or die attitude amongst the
Yoruba Muslims;; and they also live
side by side with brothers or strangers
of other religions.

The Hausa's were also peaceful Muslims
until the Fulani came & forced them
into fanatical, radical, intolerant,
backwards Islam that prohibited western
education..

Today, the average Fulani is still
living in rugas, in the bush in huts made of
leaves with his cows & refuses education
even when govt came up with 'Nomadic
Education" for them. They are now
unleashing their primitive violence on a
civilized populace, while their Fulani
brother watches over them from the 'Rock'.

How did you arrive at your statistics.
It's not only 80%, it's 120%.
Better stop giving people wrong info.

Why not give a counter fact according to your view. Name all the prominent christians from the states the guy listed and you'll find that their backgrounds were muslim backgrounds including prominent pastors e.g Oyedepo, Ashimolowo etc

Is this from the 2006 census where religion is filled out on the forms?
Why can't you stick with verifiable facts

Fun fact
There are no Muslims, Christians, or tradtional worshipers in yorubaland

The only religion is being a Yoruba

Thats why a Yoruba can practice all religion without breaking a sweat.
They have all ready understood from ages that religion is the opium of the masses
Now that is what we call sophistication
isiaku(mumuric Leader)and Tinubu Are Good Example Of The Religion Tolerance In Yoruba Race.
