The Imminent Balkanisation of Iloro-Ekiti (Part 1)

It often begins subtly — just as it once did in great Ipoti-Ekiti decades ago. What started as mere tussles among traditional rulers eventually led to divisions within the community. Over time, the town fragmented into smaller groups and zones, divided by political rivalry, family (“omo-ile”) tensions, leadership disputes, and the erosion of unity.

Today, the outcome is evident — the once-unified great Ipoti-Ekiti now stands balkanised (though it may be a healthy compectition; see plenty beautiful rivery houses in Ipoti-Ekiti today, we hope many rivery companies will spring up too)

This trend reflects a growing preference for so-called modern equality over the values of tradition and culture that once bound our forefathers together.

Let no Iloro-Ekiti & the likes be in hurry, the same winds that scattered others are blowing still. Unless unity and respect for heritage prevail (difficult), Iloro-Ekiti too may soon face the same fate — the balkanisation of a once-peaceful community.

If any one think division in homes, families, towns and nations will not come, "omo-ale ni o ti dagba ni o"
