On a lighter note,tell the guy to publicise his endeavour thru the sc and tech ministry.

iflywithbuhari:
The people of Ughene should shutup and hold their peace. Everywhere in the world, the caste system is being practiced whether transparently or opaquely. It's all this useless Osu that come to lagos, to engage in prostitution and lesbianism. They go as far as having taboo sexual intercourse with Yorubas and even hausas. The Osu custom must be enforced and a clear system of identification should be implored.

I am sorry.Is Bianka an Osu too?Onyeka and lots of those big Ibo women rolling in the hay with Yoloba dudes must all be Osus going by your flow...

naijaforlife:
Quite a pity that the convicted though must have realize their mistakes, it is nonetheless too late. Nothing but greed and get-rich-quick syndrome explain why able bodied youths, perhaps somewhat educated would engage in this kind of business. Even more annoying is the pittance they get paid by their sponsors who rarely get caught anyway (we always hear about the carrier being arrested and not the sender nor the recipient). Again, notwithstanding the consistence of the coincidence, we should all condemn the act and the actors, not their tribe, religion or any other affiliation. Perhaps, if they had succeeded our society where they would have come back to live larger than life without anybody blinking an eye about their sudden wealth gives hope to those yet to be caught that it is a way to go. I make bold to say that as Nigerians, this is not in our character. If we keep playing the ethnic card and not condemn
this and other disgraceful acts by Nigerians
together, foreigners do not know the difference between or among us.

You are on point,sir.If only Nigerian parents would wake up to their responsibilities..*sighs*

Menace of Fulani herdsmen: Tales of woes from the East. By Chidi Nkwopara, Anayo Okoli, Francis Igata & Peter Okutu.


Incidents of killing, robbery, rape, maiming and kidnapping by the cattle herdsmen have inflicted pains on most farmers, even as farm produce have been drastically affected. Farmers, leaving in fear, have scampered to safety in desperate bids to avoid being hacked down by the rampaging herdsmen. Fulani-herdsman Fulani-herdsman CATTLE rearing and cattle rearers have over the years contributed their own quota to the economy of the South-East and the country at large. The place of Fulani herdsmen is inevitably important as they have sustained the production and sales of meat in markets across the country.


However, despite their diverse importance, the recent activities of Fulani cattle rearers in the South-East obviously threaten the life and existence of those living within their areas of grazing, especially in the rural areas. It is not in doubt that there is hardly any community in the South-East geo-political zone where you will not find Fulani herdsmen. What is however most disturbing to farmers and land owners is the way they forcefully colonize, kill, maim and allow their cattle to destroy farm crops wherever they set their feet. They have sadly transformed themselves into law. The stories trailing the rampage of Fulani herdsmen and their cattle in the South-East are therefore as ugly as they are most discomforting.


The activities of these herdsmen in some communities in Abia State, for example, have become a source of great worry to the people. This is because of the huge damage the cattle inflict on crops and farmlands in these rural communities which the breeders illegally and brazenly colonize as grazing grounds. That the herdsmen dare them for a showdown when challenged is most provocative to victims of this menace! File: Eze attacked along Enugu-Makurdi Expressway recently by Fulani herdsmen File: Eze attacked along Enugu-Makurdi Expressway recently by Fulani herdsmen Saturday Vanguard investigations revealed that, besides the damage on crops and other farm produce, the aggressive nature of the Fulani cattle guards is more of concern to any community they invade. They are always armed to the teeth with dangerous weapons, including AK47, charms and deadly sharp daggers and machetes and are often ready to attack the farm owners at the least confrontation. Tales of woes There have been reports of clashes between the herdsmen and farmers across the region. For instance, in Abia communities of Uzuakoli in Bende Local Government Area, Ebem and Akanu in Ohafia and Umuchieze in Umunneochi, there have been cases of deadly clashes between rural farmers and these cattle breeders.


In Uzuakoli, a man popularly known in the area as Ajambele sometime in the past received a deadly attack when he met cattle destroying his farm in the Over Rail area of the community and confronted the Fulani cattle herdsmen who had invaded the farmland with the cattle. The herdsmen were said to have used sharp dagger to rip open Ajambele’s stomach, forcing the intestines to gush out. He was said to have been rushed to a hospital and was lucky to have survived. Cases of invasion of farmlands in Ebem and Akanu communities nearly resulted in bloodbath but the wisdom of the leaders in the community who timely reported to the authorities saved bloody clashes. Some of the cases were so serious that Abia State Government had to intervene, preventing the youths of the communities from retaliating. It set up a peace committee that quelled the then imminent doom. The story is not different in Enugu State. Saturday Vanguard investigation revealed that attacks unleashed by Fulani herdsmen are a recurring decimal in the state.


Of the 482 communities in Enugu State, one cannot boost of one community that has not had its fair share of Fulani herdsmen’s barbaric activities which leave in their wake,perennial tears of sorrow. Indigenes of Ezeagu tell stories of not only destruction of their farms but also rape of their women in their farms. Over 70 percent of the people in the state who are domiciled in rural areas, engage in subsistent or commercial agricultural activities as their mainstay. But the recent increasing threat posed by Fulani herdsmen is rocking the fabric of their fundamental existence. Incidents of killing, robbery, rape, maiming and kidnapping by the cattle herdsmen have inflicted pains on most farmers, even as farm produce have been drastically affected. Farmers, leaving in fear, have scampered to safety in desperate bids to avoid being hacked down by the rampaging herdsmen. Last March, suspected Fulani herdsmen allegedly killed Tamgbo Ogueji, a member of the traditional rulers’ cabinet at Eke Community in Udi Local Government Area of Enugu State. The deceased, aged 85, was shot in his house in the early hours over an undisclosed issue with the herdsmen. President-General, Eke Town Union, Mr. Anthony Enu, told Saturday Vanguard that the community was irked and the youths restive. He said: “Last year, the same Fulani herdsmen killed two of our brothers, Matthew Aniugo and Chiagha Chigbo, in their farms. The town is boiling with anger now. We have reported the matter to the Police. We are calling on all relevant authorities to prevail on these Fulani herdsmen to ensure justice for our people.” The sleepy town of Nkpologu Community in Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu State was, last January, thrown into mourning following news of the death of a young woman on New Year eve, during a Fulani herdsmen’s robbery attack on a commuter bus. *Umar...on the hospital bed after the attack by Fulani herdsmen *Umar…on the hospital bed after the attack by Fulani herdsmen The deceased, Veronica Ezugwu, 20, from Agum Village, Nkpologu Community was pronounced dead at Annunciation Hospital, Emene, Enugu. She had sustained several gunshot injuries during the robbery attack on the commuter bus conveying the victim and three other passengers home for Christmas on December 24, 2014. The incident occurred at Camp Bus Stop, Nkpologu Community at 12.54pm. According to an eyewitness, three Fulani herdsmen, armed with short pump action double-barrelled guns, sprang from the bush and started shooting at the bus.



The bus driver escaped into the bush with gunshot wounds, while the two other passengers sustained minor injuries. According to the eyewitness, “Veronica was hit on the head and eyes and her brain tissues severed.” Contacted, the cousin to the deceased, Chinedu Ezugwu, said: “She was rushed immediately to University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital, UNTH, Ituku-Ozalla, Enugu. But we could not get medical attention following the industrial action embarked upon by health workers. “We then took her to Annunciation Hospital on December 25. She was operated on and the bullets removed. Eventually she died on New Year eve. We are yet to come to terms with the sad development. She was coming home for Christmas and had got to the bus stop to her village. I do not think we will ever recover from this”, Mr. Ezugwu lamented. In Ebonyi State, people are usually uncomfortable with the activities of Fulani herdsmen simply because of their tendency to become violent at the slightest provocation. And due to their level of education, exposure and background, many people in the state tend to avoid them but only react to their misdemeanors whenever situations get out of control.



However, the complaints of those in Ebonyi border mainly on the ease with which the cattle rearers go into both private and public farms without permission to allow their cattle to graze in the area. Farmers and villagers in Imo State also have gory tales to tell. Emotions ran high and tension was electric recently as scores of angry youths of Irete Community in the state, blocked the ever busy Owerri-Onitsha dual carriageway to protest the damnable activities of Fulani herdsmen in their community. Obviously, the Hausa-Fulani herdsmen were at it again in the community, harassing the people who tried to resist efforts to turn their cassava, yam and vegetables farms into grazing fields for cattle. Some affected villagers told Saturday Vanguard that they now feel helpless and defenceless in their own communities, especially as the Federal and State Governments appear not ready to come to their assistance. Presently, most farmers are now scared to go to their farms, while it is also true that they are afraid to move about in the night! Many South-East socio-political leaders perceive the menace of these Fulani herdsmen as a threat to every Nigerian as their activities are nationwide. Following the recent abduction of Chief Olu Falae, a group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Stakeholders called on President Muhammadu Buhari to “cage the Fulani herdsmen now.” The group, in a statement signed by its Chairman, Mr. Chukwudi Ibegbo said: “The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Stakeholders’ Forum was alarmed by the recent abduction of a Nigerian statesman and Yoruba leader, Chief Olu Falae, by Fulani herdsmen. This abduction, one too many, could have led to a national chaos if he was not released later by the marauders. “Nigeria and her government should no longer keep quiet in the face of this Fulani terror in the Middle Belt and South of the country. The open grazing acts of Fulani herdsmen are now outdated and should be phased out in Nigeria. We warn of future consequences of unchecked Fulani herdsmen attacks on innocent Nigerians.




” Panacea Perturbed by the herdsmen’s activities, the immediate past Enugu State House of Assembly led by Eugene Odoh, began public hearing on a bill to make provisions for the control of nomadic cattle rearing in the state, and which passed second reading. Represented by the Leader of the House, Mr. Udo-Okoye of Awgu-North Constituency, the Speaker said: “Yes, it’s true that our women, both young and old, have been raped, maimed in their farmlands by cattle rearers in the state. These cattle rearers send their cows into the farmlands of our people where they destroy all their farm produce. They block the highways with their cattle, rob and kidnap our people. They abduct them and keep them captives in the bush and demand for ransom. That is why as a House elected to serve, represent and make laws for the good governance of our people, we can no longer fold our arms and watch our people being killed and maimed.” The bill provides for the establishment of grazing areas in each of the three senatorial zones of Enugu State and the nomadic cattle rearers shall ensure that the cattle are confined within the grazing areas as provided.” It further stipulated: “Any person who permits cattle to graze in an area not designated as grazing area in the state, shall be guilty of an offence and shall on conviction be liable to a six-month imprisonment or a fine of N100,000 or both. File: Late Thadeus's mother, Late Michael, Michael's step father: They were killed by Fulani herdsmen File: Late Thadeus’s mother, Late Michael, Michael’s step father:



They were killed by Fulani herdsmen “Cattle found grazing in an area not designated a grazing area in the state shall be impounded by the pound master or any other person duly authorized by the commissioner. Any cattle impounded under this law, which is not claimed within one week of the impounding shall be sold in accordance with auction law; the proceeds of the sale shall be deposited in the government revenue.” And in Ebonyi State, reacting to the menace of the Fulani herdsmen, the State Commissioner for Agriculture and Natural Resources, Barr. Uchenna Orji condemned the illegal activities of cattle rearers in the state and called on them to be law abiding and avoid all forms of vices while carrying out their activities. “They need to keep tenets governing the state and they have not been complying; their actions have been devastating and

Action is what we need not ultimatums.

[b]Fulani Herdsmen Hoist Flag In IGBOLAND

Residents of Ohafia in Abia State have been gripped by fear and panic as herdsmen in the area have hoisted ‘Fulani Republic’ flag near the army barracks in the area.
The locals who now live in dread of sudden attack by the herdsmen accuse the herdsmen of illegally occupying part of the land donated to the army as grazing field for their cattle.
The agitated members of the communities sought to know if part of the large expanse of land donated to the army had been con­verted to grazing field by the herdsmen whereas the army authorities forbid the locals from farming on same land.
Lamenting the grievances of the people on the floor of the Abia State House of Assembly, mem­ber representing Ohafia South constituency Chief Uchendu Ifeanyi, called for investigation into the matter.
He said that the devel­opment posed serious threat to his constituents who now live in fear of im­minent attack by herdsmen.

This is the story, if you have another version that says otherwise,you lying Linus can post it:



The fighting continued all through Wednesday till Thursday (today) when some thugs, believed to be of Yoruba origin, invaded the market and started attacking the Hausas.

They burnt seven cars and killed three Hausa traders.

The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni; the Commander of the Rapid Response Squad, Olatunji Disu; the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of Operation, Lagos State Police Command; and teams of policemen were still at the scene as at the time of filing the report. - Online Reporter

proeast:
Cowards & their lame ultimatums. Where were they when the hausas ransacked mile 12 and their people had to escape by claiming to be hausa in their own land? Why cant they issue similar ultimatum against fulanis that has been on rampage all over the South West, killing & maiming their people? Well I trust the brave & courageous boys from the creeks, they dont believe in useless ultimatums but action. I hope OPC wont bite more than they can chew. They cant fight this with their dane guns, broken bottles or ineffective charms.

They are giving them ultimatum so you don't cry GENOCIDE when poo hits the ceiling.Go and read about Herero and German:Genocide.
You would learn one or two things there.Niger Delta militants or whatever they call themselves are too small to be attacked without given the sensible ones among them why they could face extinction from the lethal attack that might even take Yorubas going into the creeks to eliminate and obliterate them.A word is enough for the wise.

You know a people by reading about their history:

YORUBAS ARE CONSIDERATE WARRIORS WHO HAVE FOUGHT FOR MORE THAN 100 YEARS LOCALLY AND INTERNATIONALLY AND HAD WON THEIR WARS.

A few ignorant Igbos and Niger Deltans...not all... who see the liberal and live and let live nature of the SW(Yorubas) as something of cowardice or docility should for their own sake go and read and know about their(IGBOS) history and compare with that of the robust history of the Great Yoruba race...GREAT because they built empire like Great Britain,Great Roman empire etc and great because they were never Unclad or half clad like barbarians in their lives...

The fact is Yorubas have been warriors from time immemorial while the Igbos had been the opposites from time immemorial...

AS MUCH AS YORUBAS DO NOT LIKE WARS OR BLOODSHED,THEY BECOME THE WARRIORS THEIR DNAs ARE ENCOMPASSED WITH AS SOON AS IT WARRANTS FOR WAR...
BLACK SCORPION OVERDID IT IN HERE:

The new division took on the special qualities of its GOC.
Colonel Adekunle, Age 29, was diminuative and aggressive,
known to be more daring than the other division commanders.
A staunch disciplinarian, Adekunle carried a golf club shaft
or bat which he used to prod soldiers under fire. Colonel
Adekunle apparently was able to get away with this because of
the universally accepted belief that he was fearless. He was
noted for personally leading his brigades into battle.Adekunle was dynamic and innovative in his plans and
operations...

The Biafran attack was led by Lt. Col. Banjo...A BORN WARRIOR but always considerate.

The EWE people have not always lived in their present home. Their traditions recall a migration from the east - more precisely KETU a YORUBA town in modern BENIN. KETU is also called AMEDZOFE or MAWUFE in the accounts. KETU was founded by the YORUBA people by the fourteenth century at the latest.

In it lived besides the forebears of the EWE, the YORUBA and the ancestors of the AJA, FON, and GA-DANGME. It was the expansion of the YORUBA people that pushed the EWE and related peoples westward.
The migrants went to live at TADO in present-day TOGO from where they later dispersed in various directions.

In what was suspected to be a reprisal attack, a Fulani herdsman identified as Dan Bako was Wednesday killed in Ilara-Mokin in Ifedore Local Government Area of Ondo State.
This is coming barely a week after an Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) member, Mr Ayodele Ige was killed in the farm of Chief Olu Falae in Ilado in Akure Local Government Area of the state.
The head of the Fulani herdsmen in the state, Alhaji Alli Dongo and Babangida Sodiq Kusada, the Chairman of Hausa community in Akure kingdom and the head of Arewa community in the state, said Dongo was declared missing after all efforts to trace him prove abortive.
Briefing reporters in the Officers’ Mess of the Nigerian Police Force in Akure, the state capital, Dongo and Kusada said their kinsman had been living in Ilara-Mokin for the past seven years and was preparing to relocate to his state when the incident happened.

NO fewer than eleven herdsmen have been killed in the last six weeks in some parts of Oke Ogun area of Oyo State. The towns where the killings allegedly took place, according to the Fulani ethnic community in the state, are Otu, Ikomu, Igbo-Ora, Iwere-Ile, Iganna, Ilaju and Ado-Awaye. In a petition by the leaders of Jamu Nati Fulbe Association of Nigeria, Oyo State Chapter, Alhaji Salihu Kadiri and Mallam Muhammed Salihu Kisi, National Chairman and General Secretary ,respectively, the herdsmen called on Governor Abiola Ajimobi to do something urgently to prevent further loss of lives in the areas.

The meeting was called to order after Lam
walked into the Executive Chambers.
Introductions over, Buhari spoke on their
mission to the governor’s office. Emitting fire,
the general accused Lam and the government
of Oyo State of complicity in the killing of over
68 Fulani people in Oke Ogun area and
perversion of justice.
His words: “Your Excellency, our visit here is to
discuss with you and your government our
displeasure about the incident of clashes
between two peoples… the Fulani cattle rearers
and merchants are today being harassed ,
attacked and killed like in Saki. In the month of
May, 2000, 68 bodies of Fulani cattle rearers
were recovered and buried under the
supervision and protection from a team of
Mobile Police from Oyo State Command.
“ That some arrests were made by Oyo State
Police Command in the massacre with their
immediate release without court trial. This was
said to have been ordered by Oyo State
authorities and they were so released to their
amazement. The release of the arrested
suspects gave the clear impression that the
authorities are backing and protecting them to
continue the unjust and illegal killings of Fulani
cattle rearers…”
According to the general, they therefore wanted
immediate stoppage of the killings, justice and
compensation to the Fulanis.

The Oyo Empire was a Yoruba empire of what is today Western and North central Nigeria, and Eastern Benin. Established in the 15th century, the Oyo Empire grew to become one of the largest West African states. It rose through the outstanding organizational skills of the Yoruba, wealth gained from trade and its powerful cavalry. The Oyo Empire was the most politically important state in the region from the mid-17th to the late 18th century,[citation needed] holding sway not only over most of the other kingdoms in Yorubaland, but also over nearby African states, notably the Fon Kingdom of Dahomey in the modern Republic of Benin to the west.


Mythical origins

The mythical origins of the Oyo Empire lie with Oranyan (also known as Oranmiyan), the second prince of the Yoruba Kingdom of Ile-Ife (Ife). Oranyan made an agreement with his brother to launch a punitive raid on their northern neighbors for insulting their father Oba (King) Oduduwa, the first Ooni of Ife. On the way to the battle, the brothers quarreled and the army split up.[2] Oranyan's force was too small to make a successful attack, so he wandered the southern shore until reaching Bussa. There the local chief entertained him and provided a large snake with a magic charm attached to its throat.

The chief instructed Oranyan to follow the snake until it stopped somewhere for seven days and disappeared into the ground. Oranyan followed the advice and founded Oyo where the serpent stopped. The site is remembered as Ajaka. Oranyan made Oyo his new kingdom and became the first "oba" (meaning 'king' or 'ruler' in the Yoruba language) with the title of "Alaafin of Oyo" (Alaafin means 'owner of the palace' in Yoruba). He left all his treasures in Ife and allowed another king named Adimu to rule there.[3]
Early period (14th century–1535)
A Survey of Old Oyo Palace Compound

Oranyan, the first oba (king) of Oyo, was succeeded by Oba Ajaka, Alaafin of Oyo. Ajaka was deposed, because he lacked Yoruba military virtue and allowed his sub-chiefs too much independence. Leadership was then conferred upon Ajaka's brother, Shango, who was later deified as the deity of thunder and lightning. Ajaka was restored after Shango's death. Ajaka returned to the throne thoroughly more warlike and oppressive. His successor, Kori, managed to conquer the rest of what later historians would refer to as metropolitan Oyo.[3]
Oyo-Ile

The heart of metropolitan Oyo was its capital at Oyo-Ile, (also known as Katunga or Old Oyo or Oyo-oro).[4] The two most important structures in Oyo-Ile was the 'afin,' or palace of the Oba, and his market. The palace was at the center of the city close to the Oba's market called 'Oja-oba'. Around the capital was a tall earthen wall for defense with 17 gates. The importance of the two large structures (the palace and the Oja Oba) signified the importance of the king in Oyo.
The Nupe occupation

Oyo had grown into a formidable inland power by the end of the 14th century. For over a century, the Yoruba state had expanded at the expense of its neighbors. During the reign of Onigbogi, Oyo suffered military defeats at the hands of the Nupe led by Tsoede.[5] Sometime around 1535, the Nupe occupied Oyo and forced its ruling dynasty to take refuge in the kingdom of Borgu.[6] The Nupe sacked the capital, destroying Oyo as a regional power until the early 17th century.[7]
Imperial period (1608–1800)

The Yoruba of Oyo went through an interregnum of 80 years as an exiled dynasty after its defeat by the Nupe. They re-established Oyo as more centralized and expansive than ever. The people created a government that established its power over a vast empire.[6] During the 17th century, Oyo began a long stretch of growth, becoming a major empire.[7] Oyo never encompassed all Yoruba-speaking people, but it was the most populous kingdom in Yoruba history.[8]
Reconquest and expansion
Oyo Empire and surrounding states, c. 1625.

The key to Yoruba rebuilding of Oyo was a stronger military and a more centralized government. Taking a cue from their Nupe enemies (whom they called "Tapa"wink, the Yoruba rearmed with armor and cavalry.[6] Oba Ofinran, Alaafin of Oyo, succeeded in regaining Oyo's original territory from the Nupe.[5] A new capital, Oyo-Igboho, was constructed, and the original became known as Old Oyo.[5] The next oba, Eguguojo, conquered nearly all of Yorubaland.[5] After this, Oba Orompoto led attacks to obliterate the Nupe to ensure Oyo was never threatened by them again.[5] During the reign of Oba, Ajiboyede, he held the first Bere festival, an event to celebrate peace in the kingdom. Celebrated regularly, it would retain much significance among the Yoruba long after the fall of Oyo.[5]

Under his successor, Abipa, the Yoruba repopulated Oyo-Ile and rebuilt the original capital.[5] Despite a failed attempt to conquer the Benin Empire sometime between 1578 and 1608,[5] Oyo continued to expand. The Yoruba allowed autonomy to the southeast of metropolitan Oyo, where the non-Yoruba areas could act as a buffer between Oyo and Imperial Benin.[9] By the end of the 16th century, the Ewe and Aja states of modern Benin were paying tribute to Oyo.[10]

Dahomey Wars

The reinvigorated Oyo Empire began raiding southward as early as 1682.[11] By the end of its military expansion, Oyo's borders would reach to the coast some 200 miles southwest of its capital.[12] It met little serious opposition until the early 18th century. In 1728, the Oyo Empire invaded the Kingdom of Dahomey in a major campaign of its cavalry.[11][13] Dahomey warriors, on the other hand, had no cavalry but many firearms. Their gunshots scared the Oyo cavalry horses and prevented their charging.[14] Dahomey's army also built fortifications such as trenches, which forced the Oyo army to fight as infantry.[15] The battle lasted four days, but the Yoruba were eventually victorious after reinforcements arrived.[15] Dahomey was forced to pay tribute to Oyo. The Yoruba invaded Dahomey seven times before finally subjugating the small kingdom in 1748.[16]

Later conquest

With its cavalry, Oyo campaigned successfully in conquest and suppression over great distances. The Oyo army was able to attack defensive fortifications, but it was harder to supply an army, and they withdrew when supplies ran out.[17] The Oyo did not use guns in its major conquests. The military waited until the 19th century to adopt them.[17] In 1764, a joint Akan(Akyem)-Dahomey-Oyo[18] force defeated an Asante army.[11] The alliance victory defined borders between the neighboring states.[11] Oyo led a successful campaign into Mahi territory north of Dahomey in the late 18th century.[11] The Yoruba also used the forces of their tributaries; for instance, they accomplished a 1784 naval blockade of Badagri with an Oyo-Dahomey-Lagos force.[19]
Organization

At the beginning, the people were concentrated in metropolitan Oyo. With imperial expansion, Oyo reorganized to better manage its vast holdings within and outside of Yorubaland. It was divided into four layers defined by relation to the core of the empire.[20] These layers were Metropolitan Oyo, southern Yorubaland, the Egbado Corridor and Ajaland.

Metropolitan Oyo

Metropolitan Oyo corresponded, more or less, to the Oyo state prior to the Nupe invasion.[20] This was the hub of the empire, where the Yoruba spoke the Oyo dialect.[9] Metropolitan Oyo was divided into six provinces, with three on the west side of the Ogun River and three to the river's east.[9] Each province was supervised by a governor appointed directly by the Alaafin of Oyo.[21]

Yorubaland

The second layer of the empire was composed of the towns closest to Oyo-Ile, which were recognized as brothers.[20] This area was south of metropolitan Oyo, and its Yoruba inhabitants spoke different dialects from that of Oyo.[9] These tributary states were led by their own rulers, titled Obas,[21] who were confirmed by the Alaafin of Oyo.[21]

Egbado Corridor

The empire's third layer was the Egbado Corridor southwest of Yorubaland. This area was inhabited by the Egba and Egbado, and guaranteed Oyo's trade with the coast. The Egba and Egbado tributaries were allowed, like their Yoruba counterparts, to rule themselves. They were, however, supervised by Ajele.[20] These were agents appointed by the Alaafin of Oyo to oversee his interest and monitor commerce. The lead representative of Oyo in the corridor was the Olu, ruler of the town of Ilaro.[12]

Ajaland

Ajaland was the last layer added to the empire. It was the most restive and distant, and kept in line with threats of expeditions against it.[20] This territory extended from the non-Yoruba areas west of the Egbado Corridor far into Ewe controlled territory in modern Togo.[9] This area, like all tributary states, was allowed a fair degree of autonomy as along as taxes were paid, the orders from Oyo were strictly followed, and access to local markets was provided to Oyo merchants.[10] The Oyo often demanded tribute in slaves. The tributary sometimes made war on other peoples to capture slaves for this.[22] Oyo punished disobedience by wholesale slaughter of the community, as it accomplished in Allada in 1698.

Fulani herdsmen cowards that Yorubas have been treating their asses up since 1900.Don't worry yourself about Yoruba because they are warriors who had always been helped by God to win their wars against all their enemies.When there is no more One Nigeria,we would treat their asses up.There is no more Afonja to help them grin grin

UNA COWARDNESS KNOWS NO BOUNDS.You know what?Na Yoruba man win una wars for una but when the coward Ojukwu murdered him,una weakling come show well well until a few yoruba soldiers decimated battalions of Igbo soldiers.

However, the Biafrans responded with an offensive of their own when on July 9, the Biafran forces moved west into the Mid-Western Nigerian region across the Niger River, passing through Benin City, until they were stopped at Ore just over the state boundary on August 21, just 130 miles east of the Nigerian capital of Lagos. The Biafran attack was led by Lt. Col. Banjo. grin

Yorubas are not savages and we do not like spilling blood without a very tangible cause but when it comes to measuring up to us,then the warrior in us comes out.

In what was suspected to be a reprisal attack, a Fulani herdsman identified as Dan Bako was Wednesday killed in Ilara-Mokin in Ifedore Local Government Area of Ondo State.
This is coming barely a week after an Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) member, Mr Ayodele Ige was killed in the farm of Chief Olu Falae in Ilado in Akure Local Government Area of the state.
The head of the Fulani herdsmen in the state, Alhaji Alli Dongo and Babangida Sodiq Kusada, the Chairman of Hausa community in Akure kingdom and the head of Arewa community in the state, said Dongo was declared missing after all efforts to trace him prove abortive.
Briefing reporters in the Officers’ Mess of the Nigerian Police Force in Akure, the state capital, Dongo and Kusada said their kinsman had been living in Ilara-Mokin for the past seven years and was preparing to relocate to his state when the incident happened.

NO fewer than eleven herdsmen have been killed in the last six weeks in some parts of Oke Ogun area of Oyo State. The towns where the killings allegedly took place, according to the Fulani ethnic community in the state, are Otu, Ikomu, Igbo-Ora, Iwere-Ile, Iganna, Ilaju and Ado-Awaye. In a petition by the leaders of Jamu Nati Fulbe Association of Nigeria, Oyo State Chapter, Alhaji Salihu Kadiri and Mallam Muhammed Salihu Kisi, National Chairman and General Secretary ,respectively, the herdsmen called on Governor Abiola Ajimobi to do something urgently to prevent further loss of lives in the areas.

It was on 13 October 2000, when words went
round that General Muhammadu Buhari was
leading the Arewa team to the governor’s office
to confront the state over alleged killings of
Fulani cattle rearers in Saki, Oke Ogun Area of
the state. Buhari did actually telephone the
governor that he was leading a team to his
office.
In less than 30 minutes after the general
informed the governor of his visit, we noticed
that the entire secretariat was already filled with
lorry loads of our brothers from the North. This
created some tension but we kept our calm. At
about 2 p.m., Buhari arrived in a long convoy at
the governor’s office in company of the former
governor of Lagos State, General Buba Marwa,
Alhaji Aliko Muhammed, Alhaji Abdulrazak and
Alhaji Hassan. They all wore long faces. In
fact, the anger in them was palpable as all
pleasantries extended to them were ignored.
“This is trouble” was the expression on the
faces of all of us in the governor’s office.
Shortly afterwards, the state Director of State
Security Service (SSS) and Commissioner of
Police arrived. But their presence did not
change anything particular on the fears that had
already gripped majority of us. The two security
chiefs did not come with any operatives, they
came almost alone.
Late Lam Adesina Photo NAN
The meeting was called to order after Lam
walked into the Executive Chambers.
Introductions over, Buhari spoke on their
mission to the governor’s office. Emitting fire,
the general accused Lam and the government
of Oyo State of complicity in the killing of over
68 Fulani people in Oke Ogun area and
perversion of justice.
His words: “Your Excellency, our visit here is to
discuss with you and your government our
displeasure about the incident of clashes
between two peoples… the Fulani cattle rearers
and merchants are today being harassed ,
attacked and killed like in Saki. In the month of
May, 2000, 68 bodies of Fulani cattle rearers
were recovered and buried under the
supervision and protection from a team of
Mobile Police from Oyo State Command.
“ That some arrests were made by Oyo State
Police Command in the massacre with their
immediate release without court trial. This was
said to have been ordered by Oyo State
authorities and they were so released to their
amazement. The release of the arrested
suspects gave the clear impression that the
authorities are backing and protecting them to
continue the unjust and illegal killings of Fulani
cattle rearers…”
According to the general, they therefore wanted
immediate stoppage of the killings, justice and
compensation to the Fulanis.

IF HE HAD NOT BEGGED,THE KILLINGS OF THE SAVAGES WOULD HAVE CONTINUED UP TO FUTA JALON.

You get...COWARD from a documented Coward tribe.Ojukwu comes to mind.

Olu20090:
This yoruba people harbor inordinate hate and envy towards the Igbos for absolutely no reason but for their success. I have warned my friends from SS and SE, if I catch you with any yoruba minus Fayose and others who have conscience, I'll terminate our friendship immediately. You don't know a poisonous snake until you have be beaten, to be safe, what do you do? Stay away from all snakes. What pains me is Igbos are agitating to stay away from you so that this kind of hate will stop...for the sake of peace, yet you are the champion of One Nigeria but still harbors this hate. If this random yoruba man can say this on facebook, a doctor in America(with all the money still Igbo is his priority) and a leading figure OBA of Lagos, now imagine the millions who harbor the same hateful feelings around you, in our daily activities and even here Nairaland; we see every day. Goodness me...this people!

Should I say you are not sensible enough to know that in each society there are some sadists and this man if really he is a Yorubaman is one of them together with any countable yorubas out of millions who have said these unreasonable and shameful things against the great Igbo tribe.Ask yourself if a Yorubaman had ever killed an Igboman talkless of killing your women.Also remember that our disunity is the gain of the North and the social media especially Nairaland,facebook,Twitter where all of you congregate on each day are potent avenues to grow the already germinating hatred between the Southern tribes.Open your eyes.

OUR UNITY IS THEIR FEAR.LET US UNITE UNTIL WE GO OUR SEPARATE WAYS.THIS YORUBA THIS,IGBO THAT WILL FURTHER DEEPEN THE ALREADY SOUR WOUNDS ESPECIALLY IN THE MINDS OF THE IGBOS DUE TO THE CIVIL WAR AND THE LAST ELECTION.TO ERR IS HUMAN,TO FORGIVE DIVINE.

TANTUMERGO007:
don't tell me you wailing

My man, go and sit down.He is saying the truth.Something is wrong with Buhari.

ArmedRobber:
Can you provide a fact for ur assertions that poverty rate in south east is lower than other regions.??

LOL YOU DON KILL AM

mfm04622:
No single person can be singled out for that honor. Islam came to present day Nigeria through trade contact. There are Muslims far down as Yoruba land even before the Jihad! Islam even came to Yoruba land before masquerades worship was introduced!

Yes,exactly 600 and something years before the arrival of Christianity.......NA WAH O

MrEverest:
Consolation, Man up & do what you think is neccessary, all these yoruba is peaceful, we are accomodating & bla bla bla is already stale, it all points to one thing & that is COWARDICE!!

lol....Yoruba and cowardice are two opposing entities.Only dullards like you would put these two opposing entities together.You might as well try to ride two horses moving in different directions.Being patient because you know your capabilities does not translate to cowardice.What manner of wars have those that attacked yorubaland had ever fought.What is their history?Yoruba have been tested and I assure you that they are tested trusted and guaranteed when it comes to war.Yorubas are not weaklings like the Igbos and the militants who only do gra gra but will fall yakata in the end.

LET ME JUST POST A LITTLE OF THE SUCCESSES OF THE YORUBA RACE WHEN IT COMES TO WARS OR HOSTILITIES WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN MATCHED BY ANY TRIBE IN NIGERIA TALKLESS OF YOU WEAKLINGS

Yoruba built empire like the Roman empire,British empire etc.Only the brave built empire in those days when your people were still covering their blockoss with their bare hands.

Just a group of the Yoruba race..THE EGBAS...defeated the Fon warriors(they have been undefeated until they met their waterloo in the hands of the yorubas) four times without blinking their their eyes doing that...
Yoruba fought both local and international wars and had never lost any war.

Now let us come to the new millennium when your people have been decimated by the Fulani herdsmen and they could not even stay in their homes but in IDP camps...Yorubas are the only people to have decimated the hausa fulanis time and time again and it is only this foolish one Nigeria that is saving their asses just like it is saving the asses of these COWARD MILITANTS.

BarrElChapo:
sadly you guys av always envied us eventhough we all know that you ain't a serious competition 2 us..

Even Awolowo tried n failed

I saw this and I was rolling on the floor laughing.

What kind of competition would one do with Igbos that have not gotten up to 1/50 of Yorubas' achievements...
YORUBA....FIRST TV,FIRST SKYSCRAPER,FIRST OLYMPIC SWIMMING POOL,EIRST NEWSPAPER...in fact first in everything develpoment and this was when Nnamdi Azikiwe was manipulating things to favour his tribesmen.
IGBO...NIL

Even in this new millennium....

Yorubas have gotten more than ten grammy awards from five great Yoruba people.

IGBOS HAVE NONE.

Yoruba has some of the youngest Phd holders in the world.

IGBOS HAVE NONE.

YORUBA HAS 2 NOBEL LAUREATES IN THE WORLD.

IGBOS HAVE NONE.

YORUBAS HAVE THE HIGHEST UNIVERSITY CGPA 5.0 GENIUSES IN THE WORLD.

IGBOS HAVE NONE.

AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.

Now how do you compete with somebody who is below you and does not have your achievements?

Or better still...how do you subtract 1000 000 000 from 100?

let us see few of your achievements or are you talking about the houses you are building for us in Lagos?You do not even have 1/5 of the landed properties of Kwarans who are yorubas..

I LAUGH IN ALAIGBO

SonOfEl:
Chai....eweliwe....I no say e pain u no be small....

We are trooping to the SW (lagos esp) to collect our own spoil of ownership... We are your landlords, we are your business leaders, we are even your political representatives at the national assembly....very soon, alausa becomes ours....lol....

Your eyes will never open that Yorubas are using you to develop their fatherland (as Oyibos are using blacks even giving them green card lottery) which they know you cannot carry to Alaigbo.
Mumuness is really a disease.You remember your houses in the SS called abandoned properties?I do not pray to be as dull as some tribesmen

SonOfEl:
LMAO....so a queen's handshake na achievement for oduduwa republic? Congratulobia, meanwhile...
Check out the first recipient of AFRICAN DESCENT (KALU Ugba Ogbureke) to receive the prestigious KING JAMES IV Professorship, a rare honor given to GROUNDBREAKING SURGEONS in medicine and dentistry since 1492! Let a little google show you losers some REAL ACHIEVEMENT. this ceremony took place in May 4, 2016

The truth is YORUBA SUCCESS STORY COMPARED TO THE IGBOS THEN AND NOW HAD BEEN IN THE RATIO 100:1

See how Yorubas dominate the list?

18 Ibos
33 Yorubas

Proud omo Oduduwa.

This one can't be manipulated with miracle centers grin

The brilliant and unbeatable Yoruba nation deserves its own country. Nigeria is holding us back.

No nation is like ours. No nation can have an equal number of Muslim and Christians and still be tolerant and peaceful.

May Oduduwa continue to smile down on his children. Oduduwa a gbe wa o.

I'm proud to be Yoruba!

PRYCE:
I'm NOT encouraging violence bro... I'm from the North-East east so I've had my fair share of violence. I can't encourage what I know is wrong but what pisses me off is the hypocrisy of you westerners.

You guys are the first to insult northerners whenever there's a BH attack- calling us illiterates and that we should "finish ourselves there".... now see huz crying foul!

RIP to the dead oo but if I'm not enjoying the message this attack is sending make I bend for here!

Now I'll wait to see if those cowards will respond!

A tiger does not shout its tigritude.Yorubas do not just just go begin kill people like that especially when they are minorities like the Niger Deltans because we know our capabilities..glory to the MOST HIGH.What if some people are masquerading as these militants from the creeks?We have Ijaw and ND people around us and we can kill them in their hundreds but we are considerate warriors who would rather lose tens in a war when the others would be losing thousands and millions.When poo hits the wall now...I pity the innocents.To know Yoruba..go learn about their history and read about their wars.YORUBA...TESTED,TRUSTED AND GUARANTEED.PRAISES TO THE MOST POWERFUL ALMIGHTY GOD.

Military
There was a high degree of professionalism in the army of the Oyo Empire.[29] Its military success was due in large part to its cavalry as well as the leadership and courage of Oyo officers and warriors.[29] Because its main geographic focus was north of the forest, Oyo enjoyed easier farming and thus a steady growth in population.[29] This contributed to Oyo's ability to consistently field a large force. There was also an entrenched military culture in Oyo where victory was obligatory and defeat carried the duty of committing suicide.[25] This do-or-die policy no doubt contributed to the military aggressiveness of Oyo's generals...

Fon warriors who were unbeaten severally defeated by the Yorubas..Egba.
By 1748, after the Dahomey Kingdom had been subdued by the Oyo Empire, King Gezo restored Dahomey independence by defeating the Mahi nation, an ally of Oyo. With military success in part attributed to the Amazons, Dahomey attacked the Egba city of Abeokuta in 1851, and again in 1864. Both battles ended in defeat for Dahomey, with many Amazon casualties.
