How do you know majority of Lagos and Ogun indigenes are Christians?
Did you carry out any survey?
I may not argue Ekiti and Ondo, but definitely not Lagos and Ogun.
I know you will use the number of churches in those states to affirm your opinion, but it is not totally correct.
Majority of church goers in Lagos and Ogun if we look clearly may not (I am using "may" because we are not too sure based on census) even be Yorubas to begin with.

In Ogun state
There are egba yewa ijebu remo where osinbajo is from
Then the aworis in small number, most of the land of awori people has been bought by churches anyway
Now to business
Egba are largely Christians, maybe 67-33%
Yewa are largely Christians again
Ijebu has rich Islamic culture but most of their billionaires and well known people are Christians
The ojude oba of ijebu ode is largely funded by ijebu Christians
Even the awujale of ijebu land, them no born am to try rubbish with ijebu Christians
Now, ijebu igbo is largely Christian
Islam in ijebu land is sleeping, whenever I see ijebu Muslims especially their women, u can never know they are Muslims
Only by their names, ijebu people are too rich to be bothered by religion, trust me,I know what im saying
Now remo land, they are largely Christians
Ikorodu has more indigenous Muslims and traditionalist than Christians
But the traditionalist control everything in ikorodu
But the outlook of ikorodu now is christian
Now the awori,Ota is their headquarters
I don't think I have to tell u about what's going on in Oga
Billionaires Christians and churches and business men have buy so much land
See,don't look at a state because of their previous histories
Muslims in yoruba land are largely successful because of politics
The most urban and exquisite areas in ibadan is dominated by Christians
U can't argue that
In ibadan now
Only idi arere oke ado and all those ghetto looking places in ibadab that original ibadan inhabitants dominate
U should know in Ibadan, the ratio of non-ibadan yorubas to ibadan yorubas is very high
Go to bodija akobo apata odo ona alalubosa toll gate Iwo road agodi oritamefa dominated by baptist church
Omi is dominated by Muslims, oke ayo challenge mobi ring road ososami and so many places are dominated by non-ibadan indigenes
If u go to any school in Ibadan, tell all the students to tell u their state of origin
U will likely hear osun ekiti and Ogun
Those are the three that dominate ibadan metropolis most
The places dominated by real Ibadan indigenes like oke mapo and some ghetto areas have the largest muslims population
The outskirts of ibadan also has many estates dominated by Christians
See ibadan is a very complex place, just forget it
U have the ibarapa the ogbomoso that have large indigenous Christians
In Oyo state
I can beat my chest that only iseyin igboho one Ogun side have the largest Muslim populations
But ibadan is already too diluted
Ogbomoso has large Christians
Ibarapa also
So even oyo u can see for yourself now
But the Ibadan indigene are Muslims but ibadan has been largeeeelyyy diluted
In osun state Iwo ede is like a large village
Most of the big businesses in iwo and ede are controlled by Christians,especially private schools university hospitals shops and so on
U can go ask
In ife Ilesha, high Christian population are competing with Oshogbo in development
Do u know at one time, Ilesha had more population than oshogbo the capital
Ondo ekiti,u already know this one
In kwara Ilorin offa share has the largest Muslims population
But go to some areas in Ilorin now
Even the most well known alumni of unilorin are Christians
Go to wikipedia and find out
Why do u think any good news from abroad on nairaland about yorubas are most of the time from yoruba Christians?
In education, Yoruba Muslims don't come close to their Christian counterpart
Note I'm an atheist
I'm only saying about my research

Nigeria and religion Sha, I just don't get it on how a worker will leave his work 1pm daily to pray, just because you're a Muslim.. Some religion no just follow

Good point. May I know why there is no work on Saturday and Sunday? And why most of the ministries in the South have been turn to churches for morning devotion?

I'm Mr south-west. I know every length and breadth of my region. I was born in Ekiti, in formerly Ondo state, schooled in kwara and Lagos, grew up in ibadan. I know every part of ibadan, have clients in osun. I've been a marketer all my life and I know virtually everywhere in lagos. I served and still serving people from education to health and religious materials especially in those days. I'm very inquisitive too. I have friends both muslims and Christians across Nigeria, especially in the south west. I have cousins too from the maternal side who are muslims and we don't discriminate and that's why muslims down south are different from those the north. We visit and celebrate with one another during religious festivities. In the south, Islam is truly religion of peace it connotes( that's the meaning of the word islam) whilst the reverse is the case up north. We carry everyone along. Even down south, especially in Christian dominated areas, if a governor is a xtian, his deputy would he muslim and vice versa. No hate speeches apart from those orchestrated by aregbesola of osun state which nearly escalated into violence and hatred among our people by forcing muslims to be wearing an hijab in a Christian school but instead of fighting, the elders waded in and quenched the crises.

That's why I can't wait to see a sovereign odu'a republic because religion doesn't take precedence in decision making process in the south as obtainable in the north. Anyone can be a leader, so long as we love and support him, though some few still discriminate when it comes to choice of a leader but not as obvious as it is in the north. Tinubu, my erstwhile political leader and one time advocate of restructuring is now a thoothless bulldog.

You have cleared the little doubt i had about your writeup, though i would have loved a united Nigeria but i don't see that happening any time soon, that's why i also support secession. our ethnic and religion differences is stronger than what binds us together but some people especially at the top will disagree with my ascertion because of what they gain from the failed union. i was born in Edo, got all my education in the east, served in katsina, presently work and lives in Abuja. I have never been to any southwest state apart from going to Murtala Mohammed Airport in Lagos to welcome my inlaw home, thats why i value this your information so much.

Just because you lost touch with your Creator doesn't mean everyone should!

calm down bro, is not by show business.. After all some after still doing that showmanship prayer still go on to bomb their fellow humans, who's deceiving who?

sat and Sunday is for everyone, or do Muslims go to work on sat and sun? the colonial masters made it so, it has nothing to do with Nigerian Christians

It has a lot to do with Nigerian Christians. Watch how you will all go berserk if Friday is declared a no-work day and Sunday is included in the work days. Well if you don't know, those colonial "slaves" chose Sundays and Saturdays as work free days because of the unfounded Bible teaching that god of the Christians had a rest on the 6th and 7th days of creation of the earth.

see, as long as Nigeria was colonized by the British it would remain so, .. Friday is a working day and will continue to remain so, Muslim faithfuls can be giving time on that Friday alone and not daily going to pray from work or you also want Monday to Friday to be declared public holiday for you so you can pray? do you also think Christians don't pray daily? what do you think will happen if Christians also go to pray by 12 daily , think about it..your religion needs some tolerance
