Tinubu really empowered a lot of men in Lagos. MC Oluomo will become his chief of staff once he becomes the president.

This Topic was inspired because of BOMBOY(Ugochukwu Dum Obiora shocked) I have been hearing of him 4 quite sometime but he just caught my intrigue the more wen I heard that he is not Yoruba seff

Before, a stranger to Oshodi would do everything possible to avoid passing through the area particularly at night, because of the fear of being harassed, molested, raped or robbed. Street urchins and hoodlums take laws into their hands and because there is no traditional ruler in Oshodi, it is a place where every hoodlum fights to be recognized. The hoodlums are feared by transporters, traders, hawkers and market women. Their leaders are reputed to be on politicians’ payroll as they are used as thugs in political wars of settling grudges with political opponents. Even the police avoid them.

In early 1990s, Ugochukwu Dum Obiora, a notorious area boy known as “Bomboy” took control of Oshodi. He employed the weapon of fear and violence to oppress and extort money from bus drivers and traders doing business in Oshodi. His style of money making which was akin to that of Bayo Ogundare a.k.a success, who held sway in the Second Republic during the UPN/NPN era. He soon became the toast of most politicians within and outside Oshodi, who saw him as a tool to rig elections, harass and intimidate their political opponents.

This, of course made the position of Oshodi leader (Olori) lucrative and the clamour to become Olori became a do-or-die affair. To make the situation worse, law enforcement agents romance these hoodlums and made them seems larger than life and above the law. So, they always get away with their crimes. But new gangs soon emerged within the rank and file.



Gangs like the 36 Kiniun (Lions) headed by Musiliu Akinsanya, a.k.a Olu-omo, soon gained prominence. Diekot, headed by the late Wasiu Trailer, who migrated from Ibadan also waxed strong. His base was at Cairo. Bomboy, was the leader of the Lion junction and leader of all the groups put together. However, there were always clashes within the groups mostly due to the quest for supremacy. Along the line, a subordinate of Bombay, Taoreed Adedigba, popularly called Talo, staged a ‘coup’ against Bomboy and the violence that ensued led to several losses of lives while many were maimed for life.

A politician and member of opposition party in Lagos,the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Kehinde Al-Moroof, saw Bomboy as an obstacle to achieving his political ambition. He employed tribal sentiments tactics to fight against Bomboy who was loyal to his rival political group, using Talo as his marksman. This led to several clashes until a partial peace accord was reached and Bomboy was made the leader of all the groups, while MC Oluomo led the 36 kiniun (36 lions). Wasiu Trailer continued to lead the Diektot.

There were several other popular subordinates like Sule Nayam (George Bush), and Baba Fela. Bombay later died mysteriously. His death was attributed to a mysterious sore that he had on his legs. Wasiu trailer also died mysteriously on his return from Saudi Arabia where he had gone for hajj. After these two, Talo held sway briefly as Olori, before he was humiliated and humbled by the MC Oluomo of the 36 kiniun(36 lions). After the death of Bombay and and Wasiu Trailer, there was continued fracas amongst the gangs.

The desperation for control of territories (junctions) left so many dead. MC Oluomo was able to prove himself as a ruthless fighter. For example, he successfully avenged the murder of his elder brother Igidaduro. This led to the killing of the popular Elewedu and Suwe-Suwe who were both notorious members of the dreaded Oodua People’s Congress (OPC). This endeared him to the hearts of many of the hoodlums. It also led to his having more loyalists than any other group. He was also believed to have had the backing of the authorities in Lagos and some other neighboring states.


Due to the frequent clashes in Oshodi, influential persons in the state called on MC Oluomo to bring about peace; otherwise, he would lose their backing. So he called other leaders, the likes of Sule Nayam, Baba Fela, and others who are leaders of other groups.to a meeting where they agreed to have a single front which they tagged Oshodi One. They all swore to an oath that they would remain under one leadership. MC Oluomo became Olori of all the gangs.

However, this did not stop others from heading their various gangs, just like Capone having so many dons of different gangs under him. The source of income for these gangs is extortion; monies from politicians and political godfathers who use them as tools to destabilize the society and rig elections. They can go to any length to extort money from bus drivers and petty traders. Recently, such monies generated have continued to cause problems within and outside the gangs.

Most clashes alleged to have been caused by OPC were actually the result of the struggle for ‘resource control’. For instance, November 28, 2008, was a day the residents of Agbole in Ariori Street, Oshodi will not forget in a hurry. Residents woke to the sounds of gunshots and the ugly sights of human beings being roasted like animals. A group of street urchins (hiding under the umbrella of the Gani Adams led OPC popularly known as Wasiu (Nothing spoil)took the lives of two young men who belonged to the Fredrick Fasheun led faction of the OPC. This, at its face value, was another OPC war. But facts revealed to our correspondent by an outsider who wants to remain anonymous was that the killings were a calculated efforts to use the rivalry between the two factions of the OPC to eliminate some perceived enemies.

A source said the killing was a result of a fight which started at TY Hotel, which is a hideout for members of the OPC and some area boys. The source disclosed that one of the boys killed, known as MC Lee, an upcoming musician who was on his way to TY hotel when he saw a fight between two young boys he knew fairly well. In the process of trying to separate the fighting duo, one of the boys whom he never knew was a member of Gani Adams led-OPC, started a fight with him and MC Lee was said to have upper hand in the fight. A few days later, MC Lee was stopped on a motorcycle at Ariori, on his way to TY Hotel by a leader of the Gani Adams led OPC) Wasiu Nothing spoil). He was beaten blue and black and tied like a goat till following day.


New Oshodi

He was asked to call the leader Otunba Kosija, to come to his rescue. An ambush had been laid down for Kosija. MC Lee’s effort to reach Kosija on the phone proved futile. He was also directed to call Bayo Sanusi , popularly called Oro Bayo. Oro Bayo responded immediately he received the distress call from MC Lee. On getting to the place where MC Lee was held, he was said to have told Nothing Spoil that whatever the issue was could be resolved without getting into such a humiliating extent. Immediately, Nothing Spoil was said to have ordered his boys to attack Oro Bayo while he shot MC Lee, and commanded Oro Bayo be brought before him. He also shot him and ordered the two of them be set ablaze.

Another source who preferred anonymity told our correspondent that the killings of Oro Bayo and MC Lee was as a result of the struggle for ‘resource control’ in Oshodi between Akinsanya (Oluomo) and Otunba Kassim Badmus (Kosija). It was learnt that some youths in Oshodi felt sidelined and deprived of their ‘rights’ to monies generated by the Oluomo led National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) (area boys). They were also angered by the fact that some people outside Oshodi, who were not stakeholders, were being given large sums of money monthly. Some were said to have been given what is popularly ‘junction’ in Oshodi to take charge of and these ‘junctions’ are where the monies are being made. Among such people are popular Yoruba actor and a famous Fuji musician.


The killing of M C Lee and Oro Bayo was targeted to coincide with the time Oluomo was going 2008 Hajj, knowing fully well that people will not point accusing fingers at him when the killing took place. The plan was that the death of Kosija would send a warning message to those sympathetic to him, just as the death of Elewedu and Suwe-Suwe sent warning signals to those who were sympathetic to their causes.

Rumour has it he killed Igidaduro.

I remember Kiniun street ruled by Bomboy. Oshodi was hot o. Those snooker boys that will call you to come play and before you know it you start losing money, especially table tennis. My dad had an office at NAFRC Barracks and every money, army will raid Oshodi and pick area boys. Oshodi of pick pockets and intimidation. Oshodi don't calm. A du pe.

OMG to be honest. This is a vivid account of Oshodi. Toms up to the writer of this story. I remembered around 1998 when there was a fight between Hausas and Yorubas at mile 12 market then. These Oshodi boys were used in that fight. We could not eat meat for one month due to human remains layed on every street. These men especially Ganiu Adam then OPC leader and MC Oluomo have taken many lifes and must not go unpunished. God almighty will cause pain and sorrow to them and any of their uprings.

I don't like the way teni was glorifying thuggery and hailing MC oluomo in her song.i was irritated because if she knew the history of oshodi and MC oluomo she will be disgusted by the likes of MC oluomo.lagos kids need to know their history, MC oluomo is not in anyway a model or worth being a model because of his past antecedents.hes just a street criminal in the early 90s who the APC led Administration empowered and decorated for their political interests.

You are not alone my brother. I have always heard of how dangerous that place is back then but I have read a detailed info as this.

It was when saula of iyana Ipaja was killed I knew how dangerous this people can be.

Rumors has it that they were fighting for territory as well.

Yeah, Saula was the reigning king in our own area then... I didn't even know these other names

Saula's boys and some boys from Agege will always clash at Iyana-Orile busstop... We'll have to remain in school till they finish their fights. You'll be heading home and seeing broken bottles and blood everywhere

Funny thing was the police armoured tank will only patrol AFTER they have finished fighting and have dispersed... Saula's death though, ewwwwwwwww, manchi was hacked to death with cutlasses even in the gutter

It was also during that time robbers rob banks a lot... Until one incident where banks at Dopemu were robbed in the morning. The armoured tank came during the robbery and the shootout lasted for hours. The robbers were caught or killed and the whole area people were hailing policemen anywhere you see them... That was the end of bank robberies in that area. Also the first time I knew about RRS, cos they were the ones who foiled the robbery

MC Oluomo eliminated so many heads of other faction for him to remain till this day, the Lagos authority back is what's keeping MC till this day, even at the last election rally of APC, there was an ambushed within his camp to kill him but he survived the knife stabbing in his neck.

Oh! The dark days of oshodi. This article brings nostalgia feelings. I remember the day swe-swe was killed and burnt like an animal at agbelekale street opposite mafoluku grammar school on Christmas Eve, rumors has it that he was coming back from night vigil at a C&S church. One of his close ally actually set him up. Talo skibo is still alive though but he doesn't have the kind of Influence he used to have. They tried to get him many times, but they couldn't. Especially when they get that man called hamburger, they wanted to use a stone to kill 2 birds AKA to execute Talo and hamburger, but Talo was quite smart.

Enipe? They are back o...

Although I think Agege is the new breeding ground for them. You see that Orile axis, I won't advice my enemy to bring up their children there... Orile don turn another thing ENTIRELY, while Agege is their operating quarters...
yes you're right my bro.agege in
1995-early 2000s were training grounds and recruitment centres for little and teenage agberos who are now grown and distributed to other locations to constitute menace Till they're killed.

Now what surprises me about the way they operate is that they fight over stupid issues and easily get triggered/angered,quick to betray themselves for money and positions in garages, diabolical and have no value for life.

Around 1997 period in agege I see how they easily get provoked to violent clashes and this is beyond fisticuffs.they use guns and throw charms on each other.

I remember studying/observing them.after harassing roadside traders and busses, they go to local pubs and bars to drink, smoke,get intoxicated, argue about whose boss is more powerful than the other boss till they get provoked to a fight,use bottles to hurt each other till they loose their lives and the cycle goes on


Meanwhile these guys are weaklings.they operate like cultists.they cannot survive alone.they have to move in groups and packs to feel powerful.even female passerby aren't spared from their sexual harassment especially towards 7.30 pm.any woman passing they Hit her buttocks.they don't even care she's moving with her husband, boyfriend, brother or father and if the husband dares protest,the rest of the thugs Will come out from their den and shoot him or hit him with charm ( their common strategy of attacking in agege) till he either becomes an slowpoke or drops dead while the woman is rapedd

I really hope tinubu doesn't win because oshodi,agege, Lagos island and other parts of Lagos Will never be safe.thugs will be raping people's wives in broad daylight and police Will never be able to do anything about it.why do you think street urchins are supporting tinubu? They know if he wins,the Power Will trickle down to them,then they'll have state and federal backing for lawlessness and unlimited violence

This account is VERY ACCURATE, as a young boy growing up in makinde street, mafoluku, oshodi. The 36 kininun boys where my roll model, my mum use beaten correct my head.
The Suwe suwe in the story lived on Joseph street, his base was at ogun oloko junction.

He was killed, hit with a pestle on his head when he went to a Cele church program, rumours have it that those involved in his killing are his close Allies because he was called from the church vigil on his cell phone. Been who he is he wouldn't just go meet a random person....

I know bomboy. He is from my village. Infact, his house is opposite my father's house.

After his death, his brothers relocated to the village and introduced thuggery to my village. They control junctions, extort money from motorists, extort money from property developers and grab people's land at will.

Make dem no worry. Their cup go soon full

Bomboy's brother: Austin, also died mysteriously.
