80% of Yoruba Population from Osun, Oyo, Ogun, Lagos and Kwara are Muslim. The remaining 20% either converted to Christian or their parents or grandparents converted to Christian or thier lineage could be traced to Ondo or Ekiti state.

U have a strong point and this is close to factual.

Before opening the list, I knew they will all be Yoruba. They don't paste religion on their forehead like the hausas.

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

Fact cannot go together withe personal view please.
What fact is there to counter in the first personal view that he quoted? What exactly is factual there?

this is absolutely wrong, the egba and ijebu people have been Christians since 1700s, the first bible was written in yoruba over 200 years ago.
Yoruba are only muslim due to the influence of the north, core yoruba are traditionalists and NEVER islamist.

I am 100% sure you dont know shit about yoruba history. And probably never visited south west. More than 65% of the people in osun and ogun are have been Christians for generations. The ijesha, egba, and ijebus are some of the first to convert to christianity in this country .

According to statistics 44% of southwest is Christian, 40% Muslim and 16% traditionalists. In short, yoruba race have more traditionalists by percentage than any other tribe in Nigeria


Please get your fact right

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
True. Like Ishaq Akintola cheesy

No , maybe its your state, indigenous Oyo ,Osun , Ogun, kwara and Lagos have more Muslims, I can't say the percentage though, Ogun should be like half/half if Muslims are not more though , kwara has more Muslims, I haven't seen indigenous Ilorin Christian, even if there's, it wil be a convertee,.. Only Ondo and Ekiti have more Christian than Muslims
