Ategberoson:No, in Oro town it's mixed. 50-50, I have relatives from Oro town and they're mixed. The reason why there many Christians in some of this towns is because of missionaries who converted many Muslims and traditionalists to Christianity. Missionaries were really successful there, but Ijebus are mostly Muslims and Egbas Christians. This is a fact |

BeansAndBread:You a the one who is dumb. I don't know anything about the Chinese or their religion. Now, you are insisting on igbo muslims and every igbo person who quoted you told you there is nothing like igbo muslims, but you a yoruba man keeps insisting on igbo muslims. Now, i want you to quote and invite your igbo muslim friends on nairaland. Nairaland info says it has at least one million subscribers. At least, you should have one igbo muslim friend who must be lamenting to you about 'igbo muslims marginalization in igboland' in your islamic section, abi you want to do your usual propaganda work. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

BeansAndBread:I have never said igbo muslims don't exist. I know nothing about their online presence. Your propagation of making it look like that a good percentage of igbos are muslims when they aren't even upto 3% of igbo population is where the argument is coming from. Fyi, most igbos have never met or seen an igbo muslim physically because of their small percentage that is why most will say there is nothing like igbo muslims. I don't have anymore response for you. You know nothing about igboland. 3 Likes |

BeansAndBread:More Muslim than Christian is a big lie. I am a Yoruba who have been all over the South West not to talk of outside the South West or Outside the country. You people only have a say because Christians shy away from politics because of religious beliefs while you people see politics as a means to have control over how things are done. Kindly mention towns, villages/states in the South West that have more Muslims than Christians apart from Sarki, ede, ijebu or Abekuta? Let just use both festive periods as example; Compare both religion festive periods and also worship days/number of worship houses in the South West. Furthermore, the Bible was is translated to Yoruba decade ago and this made it easy for Yorubas to really know the content of the Bible and Christianity is very peaceful. The above makes Christianity more acceptable to lots of people and the Population is increasing by the day in the South West and several other parts outside the South West. On Ajimobi, go and checkout those employed during his 8 years in power and you will find out that at least 90% are Muslims and please mention the majority Muslim villages and towns in Oyo State and South West apart from the ones I have mentioned. Inconclusion; Please note that due to time factor I may not be able to go real deep for now but do note that I await your response at the earliest. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria, the most populous African country (with a population of over 182 million in 2015),[6] is nearly equally divided between Christianity and Islam, though the exact ratio is uncertain.The majority of Nigerian Muslims are Sunni and are concentrated in the northern region of the country, while Christians dominate in the south. Most of Nigeria's Christians are Protestant (broadly defined) though about a quarter are Catholic.[4] From the 1990s to the 2000s, there was significant growth in Protestant churches, including the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Winners' Chapel, Christ Apostolic Church (the first Aladura Movement in Nigeria), Deeper Christian Life Ministry, (Christian Reformed Church, Nigeria),[Evangelical Church Winning All]], Mountain of Fire and Miracles, Christ Embassy, The Synagogue Church Of All Nations, The Common Wealth of Zion Assembly (COZA), the Aladura Church[7] (indigenous Christian churches being especially strong in the Yoruba and Igbo areas), and of evangelical churches in general. These churches have spilled over into adjacent and southern areas of the middle belt. Denominations like the Seventh-day Adventist also exist.[8] Other leading Protestant churches in the country are the Church of Nigeria of the Anglican Communion, the Assemblies of God Church, the Nigerian Baptist Convention and The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations. The Yoruba area contains a large Anglican population, while Igboland is predominantly Catholic and the Edo area is predominantly Assemblies of God, which was introduced into Nigeria by Augustus Ehurie Wogu and his associates at Old Umuahia. Nigeria has the largest Muslim population in sub-Saharan Africa. Islam dominates the north and has a number of supporters in the South Western, Yoruba part of the country. In terms of Nigeria's major ethnic groups' religious affiliations, the Hausa ethnic group in the North is mostly Muslim, the West which is the Yoruba tribe is divided among mainly Christianity, Islam and traditional religions, while the Igbos of the East and the Ijaw in the South are predominantly Christians (Catholics) and some practitioners of traditional religions.[9] The middle belt of Nigeria contains the largest number of minority ethnic groups in Nigeria and they are mostly Christians and members of traditional religions with few Muslim converts.[10][11] The vast majority of Muslims in Nigeria are Sunni, belonging to Maliki school of jurisprudence; however, a sizeable minority also belongs to Shafi madhhab. A large number of Sunni Muslims are members of Sufi brotherhoods. Most Sufis follow the Qadiriyya, Tijaniyyah or Mouride movement. A significant Shia minority exists (see Shia in Nigeria). Some northern states have incorporated Sharia law into their previously secular legal systems, which has brought about some controversy.[12] Kano State has sought to incorporate Sharia law into its constitution.[13] The majority of Quranists follow the Kalo Kato or Quraniyyun movement.

Someone said religion is our problem in Africa and i told him no. Even if all of us become Muslims in Nigeria we will still have problem. Now this fellow is asking for appointment of more Yoruba Muslims, not minding that majority of appointees under this administration are Muslims. A typical African man will always look for something of disunity. |
