Actually main religion in lagos is Islam then christianity and traditional religion. If christianity was the main religion, then why were muslims clamoring for sharia court in 2002. Modern-day Lagos was founded by the Awori in the thirteenth century. It was later called Eko. The Portuguese explorer Ruy de Sequeira who visited the area in 1472, named the area around the city Lago de Curamo; the present name is Portuguese for "lakes". Oldest church in nigeria is the Cathedral Church of Christ Marina which was established in 1946 while mohammed shitta beys mosque was was in 1892. hmm.

A certain "TAIRU EKO mosque in Obalende(glover street), was founded in 1880s.
