@ post

Apongbon. I have always seriously pondered the meaning. grin cheesy


Apogbon is derived from the colour of the beard of the Lagos District Officer, a white man with red beards who lived around the area at the time ( because the people couldn't pronounce his name McNaughton i believe, they choose to call him by the colour of his beard- Aponnigbon (later shorten to Apogbon and literally translated means the red beard one)...
