Well let me educate some kids here, I agree with that People would choose to believe whatever they want to anyway doesn't change the fact.

The fact the throne of Lagos was created by a Bini Prince doesn't make it Bini land. Just like the throne of Onitsha was created by the Oba of Benin too doesn't make Onitsha a Benin land.

Pre Colonial times, the Benin Empire had a strong influence on a large expanse of people across the Niger to the East and west down towards Oyo and Dahomey Empire.

We all know the first settlers on the now Lagos (Eko) are the Aworis who welcomed a Bini Prince and asked him to rule over them because they were defending them from the Dahomey warriors. But the throne after the 3rd generation was been ruled by the Aworis after the Oba then didn't have a male child so his daughter married an indigene.

The fact that the present day Britain(Britannia) was a name given to them by the Roman Empire in today's Italy and ruled by Roman commander put in charge by the Emperor but they ruled Anglo-saxons(English people) doesn't make mean Britain of now is owned by the Italian people of Roma (or Rome)

Many places in Jerusalem, Bethlehem during the time of Jesus Christ was ruled by Roman Pilates and Commander, they ruled Jews, Hebrews and Pharisees. It's all due to the influence of the then Roman Empire does that make Present day Isreal a Roman Land?

Even Egypt is not left out,The Emperor Julius Caesar sent a Roman commander of Mark Anthony to rule over Egypt during the time of Cleopatra does that make present day Egypt a Roman land or Italian land?

So like wise is the issue of Lagos and Onitsha the Benin emissaries and Prince from Benin ruled over the indigenous people.

After the fall of the Benin Empire likewise the Fall of the Roman Empire the indigenous people started ruling themselves.

So there is no argument there Lagos is Yoruba land. The present Oba of Lagos is an Awori man.

There is even a difference between Lagos Island and Lagos state.

Lagos Island where the Oba of Lagos rules down towards Ota in Ogun state is Awori land but the Ikorodu and Epe area is owned by the Ijebu people.

Many non-Yorubas wouldn't know these things because they aren't connected to the land all they see is the Bridge, Roads, Buildings etc they don't know the history of the land.

It is quite unfortunate that a medium such as Nairaland which is a formidable tool to foster national unity is instead dedicated to fostering enmity between Nigerians. At this critical juncture in our nation's history, we need forces that unite and not those that divide us.

Anyone who is a regular visitor to Nairaland pages can attest tot he quality of the IVY (Igbo Vs Yoruba) education, that impressionable minds can acquire on its pages.
Everyone of us has a family member or relative who is married from someone of a different ethnic group.
Why is Nairaland dedicated to fostering and promoting tribalism
No doubt, it (promoting tribalism) is a business model as analytics demonstrates that it generates the most traffic/pay to Nairaland owners/operators. In that respect, is Nairaland any better than Nigerian politicians who use us against each other for their own profit?

My friend it is the the same Onitsha, the throne of Onitsha too was founded by the Benin Empire but that doesn't make Onitsha Benin land same as Lagos.

Wrong info!
Even a baby PIG knows that Ile-Ife owns Benin. So how could you bring Lagos to some people who are historically answerable to Ooni? OP please close this thread!
You are turning history on it's head! The founder of ile ife, who the yorubas called oduduwa is a bini prince. So if a bini prince founded ife, how can you then claim Binis are from ile ife?

The founder of Ogodomiodo called ogiso King of the skies that the Yoruba Oba overthrew was not really from the skies or from Egypt as the Ogiso told Them.

Ogiso are Fulani wonderers and lied to the good people of Ogogomiodo that they were from the skies. They welcomed Fulani as their Ogiso, rulers from the skies.

The Fulani called Ogiso, brutalized them. Decapitating a pregnant woman was the last straw. They pleaded to iFE to send them OBA.
