- Ilorin is a city, traditional emirate, and capital of Kwara State, western Nigeria. It is located on the Awun River, a minor tributary of the river Niger. Founded in the late 18th century by Yoruba people, it became the capital of a kingdom that was a vassal state of the Oyo empire.
Oyo’s commander at Ilorin, Kakanfo (Field Marshal) Afonja, led a rebellion in 1817 that destroyed the unity of the empire. He was aided by Mallam Alimi (a Fulani from Sokoto), by Fulani warriors and slaves, and by Hausa slaves. Afonja was increasingly dominated by the Muslim Fulani, and, upon his assassination, Alimi’s son, Abd al-Salam (Abdul Salami), became emir of Ilorin and pledged allegiance (c. 1829) to the Sokoto caliphate.
As a Muslim emirate, Ilorin subjugated several towns in Yorubaland and destroyed the Oyo capital, Oyo Ile (Old Oyo, or Katunga), 40 miles (64 km) northwest, in 1837. Abd al-Salam conducted a jihad toward the sea and was only stopped by the Ibadan victory over his cavalrymen at Oshogbo in 1840.
Throughout the 19th century, Ilorin served as a major trade centre between the Hausa of the north and the Yoruba of the south. It strongly resisted British rule, and not until 1897, when the army of the Royal Niger Company arrived after conquering Bida (106 miles east-northeast), did Ilorin recognize British supremacy.
In 1900 Ilorin emirate was the only part of Yorubaland to be included in the Northern Nigeria Protectorate, which, later in the colonial period, developed into the Northern Province and then the Northern Region. With the subdivision of the country’s administrative regions in 1967, Ilorin became part of West Central (later Kwara) state.
Modern Ilorin is mainly inhabited by Muslim Yoruba people, although its traditional ruler is a Yoruba-speaking Fulani emir. Surrounding the historic central district with its traditional single-story red-mud houses with thatched straw roofs and numerous mosques, all protected by a mud wall, the modern city is an industrial, commercial, and educational centre.
It is a major market for locally raised crops (yams, cassava [manioc], corn [maize], sorghum, millet, rice, peppers, peanuts [groundnuts], shea nuts, kola nuts, cotton) and for cattle, hides, and poultry. Local handicrafts include pottery making, wood carving, leatherworking, cloth weaving, and mat and basket weaving.
The growing industrial sector now includes sugar refining, food processing, soft-drink bottling, match and soap manufacturing, and ironworking. There are several banks and insurance companies that serve the city and state.

History has repeated itself again. What a shame!
BOKO HARI has brought Wild Fulani kinsmen from African countries to help him fight democracy dominated by the Southern Presidency.
Now he won election and the armed wildlife he brought took to the forest to constitute nuisance and banditry.
Because they are his people he concord to look away and help them take over the forests all over the country.
This social disorder is metamorphosing into ethnic war.
Southern Nigerians, wise up .
It is well
Afonja never 👎
This is a funny cock and bull story about the history of Ilorin. This does not represent the true history of Ilorin. It is unfortunate that anyone will ever produce this trash as the epic story of Ilorin in view of the well-documented and reliable historical account of the formation of Ilorin and the circumstances leading to the ascendance of the Alimi dynasty in Ilorin.
Well, the producer of this firm has done a great disservice to the people of Ilorin by presenting a false narration of their history. The participation of respected actors in this firm leaves a sense of disappointment.
A historical firm of this nature ought to have an authentic and verifiable source of information and not just a jaundiced account of the history of the people of Ilorin. I do not think the producer realized that this was not just a movie but a work which supposed to tell an accurate and reliable historical account of the origin of the people of Ilorin. This is unfortunate and I believe at the right time a more reliable account of the events will soon be out to complement other documentary evidence of the history of Ilorin. This firm is therefore nothing but a lazy work of acting with reckless insensitivity to the consequences of so many lies put together and the implication of misinforming viewers of the true story of Ilorin. This is unfortunate.

Nice one hav been looking for dis 👌 💯
Great movie
God bless you for this ❤️
Amen
Even though there are some errors in the story line and how the norms and culture of the old Oyo Empire was portrayed, but yet it's still a great movie. Guns were not used to fight wars then. Our forefathers used bow and arrow, cutlasses, sword and spear. Also, the Basorun is the leader of that expedition and 10x superior to the Kakanfo, he can't be calling the Kakanfo" Lo gun Ofe". Also,the Onikoyi is a king,Afonja can't send him on an errand like that. Alaafin Aole committed suicide, he wasn't killed. Solagberu and Alimi are not paddies
Valid Points
This is really so interesting, Weldone woven tv👍👍
Please we need Bashorun Gaa🙏
Thanks for your kind words, we really appreciate.

I watch the movie back then too when we were still a kid.
An evergreen movie
@@WovenTVC yes ooo
Love it
We are glad you do
I just dey vex anytime I remember the history of ilorin…. I know one day they will regain it bck but might not happen anytime soon maybe when Nigeria divide. Everyone will fight for their land
Exactly I go just day vex because what’s going on there isn’t proper at all
Hopefully the land will be regained someday
If that emir die they shouldn't allow them to crown another one
It will happened soon even when Nigeria did not divide when alimi king passed away.
everything is going to be alright soon✌️I will make sure that happen by eledumare😍😍

So so lovely 😍💕

Lots of lessons from the historical movie
Well done
Thanks
Alimi, very proud even from rhe start of the film
Yeah
,i really like this film
We are glad you love it
Beautiful ❤
Yeah ❤️
Interesting
Yes it is
The movie speak volume of what is happening to yorubas now and will never learn from the past,think is going to repeat itself again
You are right
But I hope it doesn’t repeat itself
The yoruba tribe are so accommodating and tolerant.
It's a very touching story, but Allah knows best.
History is still repeating it self due to the yoruba leader's greediness and selfishness. I don't think we can ever change.
Being accommodating is not a bad thing and honestly I love Yorubas for that. But sometimes, we just need to be careful and what makes it a disaster most times is the selfish nature of some Yorùbás
@@RemilekunAkinrinadeThey now claim ownership of Lagos, how? Is Lagos in the South East? Obviously, you don't know what you are saying.
Very interested
Yes it is
May God help Nigeria and Yoruba,in Jesus name Amen
The thumb nail of this film is crazy! See how the boys wore turbans. Damn!
😀
Always yorubas fight each other aspa brothers for power and later invite outsiders to help fight for them down in Lagos 2 brothers fighting that leed to one asking British to fight for him and they did that lead to the control of Lagos then
Hmmmm
May Olódùmarè help and give us lasting unity
Toh we hope so the yorubas has not learn till date the Fulani will dominate them u can see the yorubas kings are getting married to Fulani women so wat happens after they must have grown power struggle
Yorubas are too simplistic in dealing with strangers in their mist, encouraging the strangers already in their mist to become formidable enemies, easily defeating the Yorubas in their own land. No true victorious warrior brings war to himself. He takes war to the enemy. Not the Yoruba. He is too simplistic. In present day Nigeria, see how the Yorubas accommodated the Igbos who now claim Lagos is no man's land as a first step to claiming Lagos is Igboland. Sadly, some Yoruba leaders claiming civilisation, are quarrelling with Yorubas resisting the Igbos.
You are very correct. As Yorùbás, we need to be more conservative especially all these young guys forming to be liberal at the expense of forfeiting ours
If you want Lagos to be yours and oyibos support the call for separation or else shut it. Igbos are not the only nonyorubas living in your shitty Lagos.
One thing I've noticed about you lot is ttst you and your Fulani lovers love to steal resources from BIAFRA land and damning the consequences but get upset when people come to your land to seek economic prosperity.
If you want Lagos to be yours, Please do the needful. We are all tired of your Nigeria.
theres just so much hate for fulanis online but in reality they are better than most tribes
The hatred is not without a cause.
Better than other tribes in what way?
Had afonja done wrong accommodating u people u, here saying nonsense ingrate fulani and hausa
@@olalakeazeez6342 chase the comot na 😂😂
Is that the reason they takeover other people land

Yeah
Most of this are spiced not real if you know the truth
@@folaranmiolateju2570 if you don't know please just ask, what history do you know to say it is spiced
This is exactly what is happening in Nigeria today, it was ilorin then but now is all Nigeria they want to take, and yoruba peuple dont see what is coming
God help us
Tinubu needs to watch this movie and note what happened very carefully hmmm
Olofamejo ni ki igu

It’s not happening in nigeria. Stop spreading false information.

I hate it when people say Ilorin is Fulanis' Territory! 😒 We shall soon 👀

I watched this movie when I was in jss 1
An interesting movie
So this is how Fulani people took over Ilorin, Kwara state entirely 🤔🙄😳🤷🇳🇬🔥🤟
Yes sir,
That’s the history.
Ilorin is just a town in Kwara, Fulani took over the Kingship by integrating with the Yoruba community. mind you, they speak only Yoruba in Ilorin, other towns in Kwara include Omu-Aran where Bishop Oyedepo hails from; others are Offa, Ekiti communities etc.. It is incorrect to conclude that Fulani took over the whole Kwara state.
Thank you
@@salawuopeyemi6655 exactly, most people that haven’t been to kwara state think the whole kwara is under fulani emirate
Who told you Fulani took over Ilorin not to talk of Kwara state entirely. You all need to stop talking rubish
@@saidatadeyinka7063 Can you please explain then, we are all here to learn not insult eachother
This is exactly where the problem with Yoruba start and till now especially we from Kwara state have no say in our own land except we accept Zulu Gambari as our leader in a Yoruba land also we have to be a Muslim is just sad 😅 cause if you are not ready to accept them then you already have problem may God vindicate us from their hand
This is just sad
We saw Amen to your prayers
Yoruba nation is the solution
You are correct
We need to pray together for this cause
It’s really sad the way the history went down
Koro orun
GOOD OL' DAYS
Yes o
May allah bring back yoruba to ilorin
Amen
Dont worry ile ife will soon take over ilorin town ...mafo wait nd see
We really hope so
I think all the Yoruba kings and the elders with those have knowledge and wisdom come together to find solution to the matter
Yeah
Years after, Fulani are still doing the same thing in Yoruba Lands,
Yoruba o si ronu
Hmmmm
❤
Thanks
It is happening again.....imagine the killings in ondo😔😔
It's so sad
This is March 2024

A very sad history

It’s painful
Hopefully we will regain it back
Very painful
Dey play
Dey dream. Was ilorin ever ruled by the yorubas before ?
@sunkanmisaibu7798 Get history book and read about Afonja’s Ancestors, Pàsín and Alùgbìn. Read up about Òjó Onisekuse too.
The name Ilorin itself is a Yorùbá so how can you be asking if Yorùbá has ever ruled their
Too much simplicity and welcoming of Yoruba and stubbornness and foolishness of Afonja cost us Ilorin.
Hmmmm🥹
Fulani wants to finish d job now
You yorubas don't like each other ever since right before time Till date you all are not united u all fight each other backstab each other curses each other trust outsiders than each other please tell me why will other tribes not take advantage of this
AREWA ☝🏾☪️

Imagine Yoruba people become bello 😫😫 ilorin people are in great messed up.
Who else is thinking about what am thinking about sheik alimi
Lol
👍
thanks
I’ll try to regain the lost territory
Hope so
Hmmm
Many lessons from the movie
Afonja the betrayer
It so sad!
@@WovenTVC they betrayed him first now
@@WovenTVC it’s very sad
History is lowkey repeating itself
@@Yorubaddie say the truth! they Betrayed him first
Ilorin history is a very sad one. The Fulani took over Ilorin with deceit and forcefully took their land, raped and forcefully married the Yorubas just like what the Boko haram did to the Chibok girls. Hence, the reason you see many of them speaking yoruba fluently and giving themselves yoruba names. They are Omo ale!
It would be very difficult to take back Ilorin from the Fulanis because they all speak yoruba and even have yoruba names. They use religion to cover up and manipulate history
Very accurate
God go eple Yoruba olorun ahgbewa
Àṣẹ
Starting with the foolishness and arrogance of aole. It was a sad story. The reinforcement arrived too late for afonja
A sad story
He shouldn’t have sold out his own army
Please guys Ilorin did NOT conquer all yoruba nations but they destroyed old Oyo kingdom. Also know that many commanders of ilorin army were yorubas. In 1840 were permanently defeated by only Ibadan army. Also know that ilorin always collabo with other yoruba nations and alliances. However, divisions among yorubas were very common which eventually brought down the Yoruba empire.
A detailed explanation on the fall of Ọ̀yọ́-Ilé (Old Oyo Empire)
Thanks for sharing this
This was when we had real kings. We just have political appointees
Great culture
Also at 49:12 the curse is there. Look at Ilorin, some people still foolishly calls Ilorin North Central. Calls it Hausa land. The cause is not letting them to be united to fight for their land
Lack of unity in Yorubaland.
Ilorin belongs to the Yorubas not Fulanis
That's the big problem in yoruba land we are not unite religiously and politically.
Amuda agolaje in
Okay
Se fulani lo ni ilorin??

Yoruba upon all this you people continue to remain slave to the Hausa and Fulani what a big shame till date.
😡
Yoruba People are no slaves to anyone or tribe. We lost Ilorin but not it's people. Some day, the real owners will take over.
@@mickelodu lol, yorubas were regarded as unbelievers by these people and because of that enslaved. and you say some day the real owners will take over , who are the real owners
@@boylikeanselm1740
That they see us as slaves doesn't mean we are their slaves. Yorubas see other tribes including the Fulanis, Igbos nd Hausas as slaves. I don't think those tribes will regard themselves as that.
@@mickelodu lol, you weren't seen as slaves, you were enslaved. the saddest part of this stuff is, we had the nuk kingdom, then the yoruba kingdom, and then the benin kingdom. the only people in nigeria who have been treated badly by the northerners due to religion are still the ones frolicing with the notherners.
Ilorin never became Fulani land and it would never be, all this stupid move
🤔
U talk like a fool, Ilorin has been installing Fulani Emir from den till date, so Ilorin is under which tribe like that?
@@josephferanmi9626 ilorin is ruled by its people not fulani ilorin is a Muslim city where we see ourselves as equal
Ilorin, the long walk of an elephant
Na so
This can never happen in igbo land
True
Let's all sense
From the beginning scenes there re some errors in this story
Why should Basorun be stealing
🤔
That was just showing the oppression going on under the Alaafin Aole who was a very wicked prince/king. So his chiefs too like Basorun among others became oppressive to the people

Once Yoruba gets the presidency all lost inheritance would be reclaimed. Keep calm and watch.
