Your are right.

Ijebus are the largest ethnic group in South West, followed by Yorubas and Aworis.

Lagos is a teeny-tiny state. The part that is Ijebu cannot add significantly to the total landmass of Ijebuland.

And apart from being the name of a state, a sub-ethnic grouping of the Yoruba go by the name 'Oyo'.
