If you go through history, you would understand that Lagos is Aworiland. The Aworis are from Benin. So the Bini have more claims to Lagos than any other tribe. In fact, if not for colonialism, Lagos should be a vassal of the Benin kingdom.

This is for those claiming that Lagos belongs to them. Yorubaland is Ile-Ife and Oyo and co. It doesn't extend to Lagos.

May gods fire your generation for delving into history you know nothing about. You will continue to fail just as you fail in your attempt to bring out separation where does not exit.

Enrol into LASU you'll be thought history of Lagos in GNS.

Your stupid distortion of history will ruin your generation and ease you from the surface of the earth.

Oba Ado the first King Of Lagos was an Awori man from Isheri
Oba Ado’s Father was the Ashipa Of Isheri
It was his mother that was a Benin Princess and even the Benin version accepts that he may have been the grandson of the Oba of Benin which he was on his mother’s side


On top of all that the Awori Oba’s Of Lagos have been of Ijesha Roots since the Time Of Ologun Kutere whose father Alagba was an Ijesha man from Ilesa in Osun State

You will agree that it is Yoruba Culture that Permits the Sons Of Princesses to occasionally inherit the Throne in certain Circumstances

it is not a Benin Custom as the Practice is totally Alien to Benin

Ologun Kutere was the son of Princess Erelu Kuti

That is cast Iron evidence that the Royal Lineage was originally an Awori Yoruba one

Yorubas have had a Female Ooni called Luwo and a Female Alaafin called Orompoto before

The Present Oba Tejuosho Of Oke Ona inherited the Throne through his mother’s Lineage who was an Oke Ona Princess

We are talking of Aworiland, not SW. If Awori or Bini are not complaining, why must you complain that people are coming to do business in Aworiland. I do not mind you complaining if you do not want people to come and do business in Yorubaland, but not Lagos. Only Bini and Aworis have that right.

You yeebos are really ignorant (and you're usually proud of it). Let's pretend Lagos is Aworiland, and Aworis are not Yorubas, now which Lagos are you talking about? Lagos State, or Lagos Island? By the time you bums are many enough in Ibadan I know Ibadan will now belong to the Eguns. You guys never disappoint.

Christistruth00:






Who do you think you are ?


Lagos is Aworiland

Lagos is 100% Yorubaland

The Awori are 100% Yorubas and from Ife Originally



On the day the British Colonial Government first landed in Lagos in 1851 Oyo controlled Badagry Area including Seme Which they had taken from the king of Dahomey along with Porto Novo (Ajase) in War .

The Oyos had initially also taken Allada ,Ouidah and Cotonou at the time but the King of Dahomey had managed to take them back while the Oyo were very busy fighting the Power drunk Afonja and the Fulani at Ilorin

The Oyos had fought Dahomey as Allies of the Eguns
aare oona kakanfo oyabi had led the Oyo Army

The Abeokuta Egba Army Controlled all of Lagos Mainland including Iddo Island and all the Territory from there to Abeokuta Which they had won in the Ota War of 1842 in Which the Oyos of Ibadan fought as Allies of Oba Kosoko and the Awori and received such a heavy defeat at the hands of the Egbas that the Ibadan Army had to be smuggled back home.

The whole Episode almost led to the downfall of Basorun Oluyole back at Ibadan

The Ijebu Army Controlled Everything East and North of Lekki including Victoria Island

All Oba Kosoko Controlled was the Slave market and Port of Isale Eko on Lagos Island, Even Ikoyi belonged to the Onikoyi who was Awori Yoruba with Oyo roots

Again if you hear that Yorubas spent 100 years fighting themselves till 1878,

Just know that the Egba, Ijebu and Oyo Which included Ibadan were also fighting for Control of the Coast of Lagos

Control of the Coast of Lagos meant Titanic Wealth. but unfortunately much of that was from the Slave trade

The Lagos territory Controlled by the Egbas , Oyo and Oba Kosoko belonged to the Awori People who were the most Peaceful and accommodating of all Yoruba Clans


Eko is Yoruba short for Ereko which means field and for Confirmation Ereko Market where the Egbas and Ijebu traded is still on Lagos Island today

Also Eko Ende in Osun State was one of the Locations of the Jalumi War of 1878

The Awori have inhabited Lagos since the 13th Century when they migrated from Ile Ife led by Olofin Ogunfuminire who was a great grandson of Oduduwa and a nephew of Oranmiyan who headed to Benin around the same period

The Land on Which Isale Eko of the Oba of Lagos is located belongs to the Awori Yoruba Aromire family till today

Aromire was one of the Sons of Olofin Ogunfuminire

The Otun Ekiti People migrated from Lagos in the 15 th Century and share the same ancestry with the Awori of Lagos

It was the returnee Egba Slaves who had been Converted to Christianity at Sierra Leone Bishop Ajayi Crowther included that asked the British Queen Victoria to invade Oba Kosoko’s Lagos in order to finally end the Evil Slave trade

Bishop Ajayi Crowther had met with Queen Victoria and Prince Albert her Husband at Windsor Castle over the Issue of how to finally end the Slave Trade in Lagos on 18th November 1851 and the Royal British Navy Bombarded Lagos one month Later on 26th of December 1851.

Bishop Ajayi Crowther who was originally from Osogun near Oyo had himself at age 13 been sold to a Portuguese Slave Trader at Lagos for a bottle of Wine and some Tobacco leaves

Capt Labulo Davies who later married Queen Victoria’s adopted Daughter Sarah Bonnetta (Aina) originally from Ilaro , was on the British ship that Bombarded Oba Kosoko’s Lagos in 1951 and Oba Akitoye whom the British had restored to the Throne of Lagos had first met the British Missionaries at Abeokuta while he was exiled there as Abeokuta was also Oba Akitoyes Owu mother’s Hometown he had promised. to end the Evil Slave Trade if the British helped to restore him to his Throne which his nephew Oba Kosoko had Usurped with the help of some local and Portuguese Slave traders after Oba Akintoye had driven the Portuguese Slave Traders out of Lagos 6 years earlier

Slave Trading was Oba Kosoko’s Business and his Slave Market was at Ereko Market of Isale Eko on Lagos Island where he also sold European made Goods

Ok listen to the Oba of Lagos Himself
At 25 mins of the Video below what exactly did the Oba of lagos mean when he Said
"I am a Yoruba monarch" ?

All this explanation reeling out history of complex conquests and empire administration is a waste of time. The ancestors of whom you're trying to educate lived in mushroom communities each made of around 5 mud huts, wearing palmfronds and selling palmkernel nuts. Thy don't see their neighbours until market days that hold every 2 weeks. So stories like this will be strange and and too complex for him.

The Awori are Bini that settled first in the area. Their language was influenced by the Yoruba who are claiming they are Yoruba. Some of us have researched this history. Awori are definitely not Yoruba despite the claims on Wikipedia.

Don't mind liars, the Awori followed our son to Oduduwa to Ife, that's why they left Ife immediately after his death.

They obviously couldn't go back to Benin because when Oduduwa was asked ti return to Benin, he refused and sent his son Oranmiyan instead.

Igboland is just like Japan. All the empires are in rumbles and backwards shit hole. Look at Iraq that house ancient Babylon and compare to Japa that had no empire? Tokyo is the largest city on Earth today. By 19th century it was just tiny scattered villages. Conquest, empires etc are inferior evolution and hindrance to technology advancement. Onitsha and it's environs is now the largest urban area by landmass, through trade, commerce and industry not by any conquest or political machinations which is for weaklings who have a primitive urge to find strength in numbers
