How Yoruba Warriors Stopped Fulani From Invading Southern Nigeria by Nobody:
The Yorubas are a peace loving race, and other tribes in Nigeria equate that with cowardice. A tribe that created an empire so vast that it stretched as far as Togo couldn't have done it without a lion heart. To know more about the Yoruba, go read about Oyo Empire.


Even the Fulanis, who are laying claim to the whole Nigeria know from history that their invasion was impeded by the Yoruba. At the first invasion, the Fulanis had the upper hand because they had the advantage of fighting on horses while the Yorubas fought on foot. However, the surprised Yoruba learnt from that attack, and in their second attempt, the Fulanis were cut to size by the Ibadan army.


Despite the fact that the Ibadan army was warring on 3 major fronts. Holding Ibadan city against the Ẹgba, defending Modakeke against Ife and holding the Fulanis at bay in Offa and Ikirun, all at the same time, yet the Fulanis could not penetrate.


If the Yorubas had not stopped them at Offa, the Fulanis would have made great inroads into Nigeria. It was the Yoruba who kept the Fulani to the North.


The only reason why they were able to capture Ilorin was because Afonja had long dissociated himself from his own people, so when Ilorin was under attack, Afonja had no support from any of his kinsmen.


The Yoruba nation is a nation of gallant warriors, with a rich history of amazing military achievements. The Yorubas are no cowards.
Any race that can sustain a vast empire for a long period of time can only do so through military might and political genius. The British themselves knew this of the Yorubas. They handed Nigeria over to the Hausas, because they knew that with Yorubas at the helm of affairs, in no distance time, Nigeria will be a nation to reckon with among the nations.


The Yorubas were the fear of the British and not the Igbos. We are peace loving and hate shedding blood but when occasion calls for it, the Yorubas will rise gallantly to the occasion. Yoruba is never a coward and never shall be.

Don't mind them with their usual tales by moonlight stories. Propaganda no longer sells.
Hear the op, afonjas stopped fulanis from invading the South yet he forgot that fulani does not need to pass through SW to get to SE or SS.

You won't see the Tivs, Idomas, Beroms making mouth on how they stopped the fulanis but those who lost territories even to this day. A set of people whose ancestral lands are being ruled by Invaders as we speak are the ones claiming victory.

If indeed you stopped the fulanis as you claim, why didn't you chase them out of Illorin and other afonja towns and villages?!

Audio people, everyone don see una finish grin

They know and they are envious our history cannot be denied. The whites tagged Awolowo as dangerous because he was a genius that looked out for his people, no way you allow him to govern Nigeria. He won’t look out for British interests, so he’s a dangerous man.
