There is nothing to gain ,no victory or pride in Saraki being Yoruba. It is not a plus in any way. Saraki is a totally forgettable individual What will he be remembered for that will make Yoruba want to claim him 1 Like |

There is something you people probably don't know. Yoruba people also bear "BUHARI" as surname. One Yoruba woman came to photocopy her National ID card in my office yesterday, I was just dumbfounded. 3 Likes |

Lol...it's funny how people who know close to nothing about Ilorin history claim to be an authority on Ilorin. Some people, having read some discredited works claim to know Ilorin even much more than the Emir. so funny. First and foremost, The Sarakis claim to originate from Agbaji Quarters, specifically at "Ile Agoro". Further checks on Agbaji itself and Agoro shows that the progenitor of the Agoro compound is NEITHER Fulani Nor Yoruba. In fact, He's a SHUWA ARAB who migrated from a Sudan via Mali to Ilorin. The name Agbaji is a Yoruba version of the town they come from "Al-barji" in the Sudan. However, Most people classify SHUWA as FULANI just because of the close similarities between them. one thing of note is that there's a Fulanization of the shuwa/tuareg in most Emirates. most shuwa, on account of close similarity with the Fulani, would just subsume their identities under that of the Fula identity, and interestingly they're welcome. Also, They're culturally Yoruba because they've assimilated the Yoruba culture, to a great extent. So it is true, to an extent, that Saraki is a Fulani and a Yoruba man. it is also true that Saraki is not a Fulani nor Yoruba. However, what is true at all time is that Saraki is an Ilorin man!

TundeHashim:The reality is that there are cultural assimilation by people who migrated toward the Ilorin but do have a lot of intermarriages with the so called Yoruba of today. However, Candidly, Sarakis are paternally Yoruba. Even the Balogun Fulanis of Ilorin are of paternally of Yoruba descent. However, one thing that baffles me is the method at which these people understood Yoruba dialects without having a formal studying for it. If solagberu's ancestor who settled at Kuwo, but was said to have migrated from part of Bama in Borno( Kanuris) before solagberu's migration to Oke suna Ilorin is really interesting having these set of people fusing with others. But it seems these people have one form of link or the other because, why would such without reasons? Perhaps greener pastures or seeking out families members? The Yorubas are of different groups that fused together with new ones but most of them do still retain one form of tradition linking them to their past. |

TundeHashim:That's what I was telling that guy,he has Fulani ancestry his forefather 200 yrs ago was a Fulani from Mali who migrated into Ilorin but years of marriage to Yorubas has made him a Yoruba man. Saraki is a Yoruba man with Fulani Ancestry. |

[quote author=chinjo post=62169189]We all know Oyedepo is from kwara state but is he also from Ilorin as Saraki? Even in Ilorin, they have four baloguns namely: Balogun Gambari, Balogun Fulani, Balogun Alanamu and Balogun Ajikobi. While Balogun Gambari and Fulani are from the Hausa extraction, both Balogun Alanamu and Ajikobi are from the Yoruba extraction. Though both Oyedepo and Saraki are from the same state, Oyedepo is a pure Yoruba man from Omu-Aran while Saraki is a Fulani man from Ilorin. Lai Mohammed though a Muslim, is another typical Yoruba man from Oro in kwara state.[/quotes] God bless you for this insight. 1 Like |

Olu317: bro...while I completely agree with u that there's a cultural assimilation in Ilorin...I am, however indifferent about whether Saraki is a Yoruba or not. however, u made an error. The Balogun Fulani have paternal Fulani ancestry traceable to a particular quarters in Kebbi. I'm Fulani and I've got relatives married to the olufadi and imam-Fulani clans. However, you're absolutely right if you had said Balogun Gambari. I presume you know they're four Baloguns in Ilorin. Two Yorubas(Ajikobi and Alanamu), One Hausa(Gambari) and one Fulani (Fulani). Some crazy power play happened in Balogun Gambari quarters that eventually led to a Yoruba man (murogo) becoming a Balogun Gambari. But we're all one..a big family bounded by an Islamic identity headed under the leadership of the house of Alimi... 1 Like |

bakynes: I doubt if he's a Fulani. His ancestor was probably an Hausa man, part of the slaves that got emancipated from old Oyo empire. He's probably ashamed of it and the reason for his nonsensical tales of how his Family came from Mali to settle down. Why didn't they settle in the North, which is more closer and has a way of life close to the Fulanis? |

TundeHashim: You are a fulani man and you are answering Tunde? I smell identity crisis here. Can you still speak fulfude and do you still practice pulaar culture? Face it! You are more or less a yorubanized fulani, just as the millions of fulanis in the northwest have become Hausanized fulanis. |

TundeHashim: Pls, are you for real with your 2nd and 3rd paragraph? Fulanization of shuwa Arabs? Where is that happening? If you had said Kanuri-nization of the shuwa Arabs, it would be more reasonable, b cos all the Shuwa Arabs in Nigeria and to an extent Niger republic are living and settled in the midst of Kanuris in Kanuri homeland as nomads and as such almost all shuwa Arabs speak Kanuri as a 2nd language and heavily intermarry with Kanuris than they do with fulanis. |
