Lai Mohammed is from Oro(Igbomina), so, he is a yoruba man. There are both Emirs and Obas in Ilorin, but we only have Obas in Igbomina and Offa

Kwara people had sold their soul to jihad and fulani oligarchy that is why they have emir

A majority Yoruba state controlled by fulanis.
Ilorin a Yoruba city with an Emir and no Oba

Don't say what you don't know, you can only find an emir in Ilorin, Igbomina and Offa have Obas

Tell us how fulanis are controlling the state.

Emir was imposed on them after a bloody palace coup by Jihadist Alimi the terrible terrorist that once migrated to Ilorin for business.

One govnor Lawal Mohd in 2002 attempted to do the right thing by degrading the Emir and installing the real Afonja dynasty as main Oba of Ilorin..... He was killed.

Then the scion of Olushola the godfather took over as new govnor.... 2003.

If u know u know....

He is asking questions about the whole of Kwara state and not Ilorin only.

Kwara (Yoruba: Ìpínlẹ̀ Kwárà) is a state in Western Nigeria. Its capital is Ilorin. Kwara is located within the North Central geopolitical zone, commonly referred to as the Middle Belt. The primary ethnic group is Yoruba, with significant Nupe, Bariba, and Fulani minorities.

Kwara State was created on 27 May 1967, when the Federal Military Government of General Yakubu Gowon broke the four regions that then constituted the Federation of Nigeria into 12 states. At its creation, the state was made up of the former Ilorin and Kabba provinces of the then Northern Region and was initially named the West Central State but later changed to "Kwara", a local name for the River Niger.

Kwara State has since 1976 reduced considerably in size as a result of further state creation exercises in Nigeria. On 13 February 1976, the Idah/Dekina part of the state was carved out and merged with a part of the then Benue/Plateau State to form Benue State.

On 27 August 1991, five local government areas, namely Oyi, Yagba, Okene, Okehi and Kogi were also excised to form part of the new Kogi State, while a sixth, Borgu Local Government Area, was merged with Niger State.

Kwara state has numerous mineral resources such as tamaline, tantalite, and lots of mineral deposit in the northern part Ndeji and Lema Community. Cocoa and Kolanut in the Southern parts Oke - Ero, Ekiti and Isin LGA

Kwara State consists of sixteen Local Government Areas. They are:

Asa
Baruten
Edu
Ekiti
Ifelodun
Ilorin East
Ilorin South
Ilorin West
Irepodun
Isin
Kaiama
Moro
