How come the Idejos who are Aworis own the land irrespective of the Oba? The Obas territory in reality is just the "eko camp" (Lagos Island) or more appropriately Isale Eko. The Oniru for instance seems to own and oversee land (outside government acquisition) from VI towards Lekki.

Theres a story about how the Aworis migrated from Ile Ife to Lagos. Erelu is not telling the truth. Probably she's trying to safeguard the interests of the descendants of King Ado.

My Yoruba in-laws, the person saying this is 'Abiola Dosunmu' and not Okechukwu, please don't derail this thread by mentioning Igbos, they have no dog in this fight between Bini and Awoori Yorubas.
Thank you.
Now Igbos can pick up their popcorn and watch as they battle unfolds grin grin

I think there is a silent tussel. The Idejo’s probably want the kingship. They are richer than the Oba. Very rich in fact. Oba might be trying to fight for his life with these useless stories.

Binis met Aworis in Lagos.

Aworis are Yorubas

Oba of Lagos was only Bini for 2 generations.

The father of the 3rd Oba of Lagos was the high priest, an Ijesha man.

it seems the current Oba relegated her to the background after the death of her brother ,the previous Obaundecided

What is amazing about a career-höe who spent her entire life hopping from one rich man's dīck to the other?

My brother its difficult for me to even reply the woman. There so many lies in her attempt to rewrite history. The Aworis have been in Lagos area before any other group of people including ijebu, bini, ondo etc came to Lagos.The woman said Lagos was an extension of Bini Kingdom ( another big lie). So if this was true, then the ijebus, ondos, ilaje and other group along the way to Lagos from bini were at one time under bini empire too, but this never happened (no historical data to supprt this). Oyo empire controlled most present Yoruba land even up to Dahomey in present day republic of Benin. The dahomey king was even paying tax to Oyo empire at one time (historical fact).

Another lie that is common is that Lagos was a military camp for bini empire ( grin grin grin). But the question is military camp for which war? war with Oyo empire or with who? The true is that bini kingdom never had military capability for such expedition.The books are there for people to read but they wont my brother.

And who wrote those books....who won't have a biased view of history. Sorry, the origins of Lagos remain unclear. I think the answers may lie somewhere in the libraries and imperial archives in London and Lisbon.

Oyinbo do not know our history more than us. Even they claimed Lagos was the pride of the Yoruba. You think we are like your ancestors wandering about with no known history?

So, the bottom line is that Lagos is owned by the Bini. It is interesting to hear this from the likes of Erelu Dosunmu. And some loud mouths were claiming that the Aworis came here before the Binis.

Keep quiet,she is referring to part of Lagos island and not the whole Lagos state.I hope you know the meaning of IBILE ?

I have stated it severally on this fora and others without mincing words.

Those who have divergent views against that of OBA of LAGOS, Prince Ajayi and ERELU DOSUNMU are children of slaves.

How can you come from one village in Ogun or Osun or Oyo or Kwara and try to re-write the history of EKO!!!

ERELU has said it all and the children of angered returnee slaves can keep wailing.

This version of history from the Bini princess is nothing but a complete hogwash. Awori owns Lagos and that is not in dispute. The Oba of Lagos island has no traditional authority beyond Lagos island. Lagos is far bigger than Lagos island so limiting who owns Lagos to the royalty of Lagos island is very silly and illogical.

How can you affirm that Yorubas will never have that.

Yorubas and Binis agree that Oranmiyan (son/grandson of Oduduwa) from Ile Ife is the father of all Obas of Benin.

Let us stick to that.

The few Lagosians with Edo ancestry can never rewrite the history of Lagos.

Ado = Bini
yes, Some yorubas call Bini Ado but Ado-odo has nothing to do with Bini, it was founded as one of the first Awori towns...Aworis came from Ife and moved further south, so they founded Ado-odo before even Ido(the ancient Awori capital)
