I've pulled the hotel phone numbers as non-encyclopedic; this info seems more appropriate for a travel site than an encyclopedia. Best, --Dvyost 08:20, 16 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The population is difering between the english and the german wiki. Does anyone know the correct number --Stefan da 20:32, 31 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

If the phrase "second-largest city" is taken to mean population (and I see no reason to believe it means size, or anything else), then it looks to me like there are still several cities in line ahead of Ilorin, notably Kano, Abuja, and Ibadan, with which it can't begin to compete. Check out here and here. So I'm watering down the phrase for now, but if somebody has some more up-to-date, reliable sources on this, feel free to switch it back (with citation of course =)). --Dvyost 05:48, 16 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I removed claims that the Saraki Family controls the state through vote buying. I don't believe controversial claims such as that should be reported in the article without following WP:CITE. Didn't see any sources supporting the claim in a cursory google search. --Mysidia (talk) 17:08, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
