“We, Badagry people are from Ile-Ife and settled at Quidah in Benin Republic, later the Ifa oracle directed us to return through Gberefu to our present location in Badagry.
-High Chief Wawu



O ma se o. You are really pained.
Egun and Ogu are the same as much as Awori and Ogu are same Yoruba or Egbado and Yewa are the same today for semantics reason. Listing Egun and Ogu side by side does not mean they are different but your pain did not see that nowhere was it stated that they are different.

Even Wawu itself was not included and means that list is inconclusive and does not mean will not change in the future. High Chief Wawu is still alive and an authoritative custodian of the oral tradition and history of Badagry. Emeritus Prof Falola , an authority on history, has done extensive research too and published the works providing the authorities to support High Chief Wawu's account.

You can go and argue with Ifa if you are pained. The Yoruba Badagry can not be second class Yoruba in their own land because of few ignorant people who want to hold down Badagry like the ehinkule ile Yoruba.

But for this few ignorant people who do not know the place of Badagry in Yorubaland, Badagry should by now be like Eti Osa if not greater.


They are all Yoruba from Ile Ife.

You are spitting trash! Awori is unrelated to Yoruba, Egun is also pronounced as ogu, Yewa is a political nomenclature. The people of yea are Egun or ogu people and they are a distinct tribe from Yoruba. Stop spitting trash and misleading the public.

Today I have time for People like you



The Egun descended from Oduduwa and Ile Ife through the Branch of the Yorubas called
the Popos led by the Olupopo who was a Son Of Oduduwa

The Egun were the offspring of intermarriage between the fon of Dahomey and the yoruba Popos Of Dahormey and Togo

They settled in Badagry in the late 17 th Century as guests of their Awori yoruba Cousins who gave them the land they settled on when they fled from the King of Dahomey’s Wars against Ouidah which was their original homeland

Even the fon Of Dahormey have some Yoruba Ancestry but speak an Akan Language

The Ewe ,and ga Tribes of Benin Republic , Togo and Ghana are Of Yoruba Ancestry

and migrated from Yorubaland but now Speak the Akan Languages Of their Neigbours

The fon Of Dahomey Conquered Part of the Yoruba Popos and assimilated with them producing the egun

the Alaafin Of Oyo later reconquered the fon and almost everybody in Dahomey and Togo all the Way to the

Coastal Accra Area in Ghana and defeated the Ashanti of Ghana along the Way in the days of Bashorun Gaa

Since the Alaafin reconquered the fon and Dahomey the Eguns were under Oyos Protection

So what is your Problem ?

the Egun are our People

What happened to your Biafra ?

Till today, Yoruba people are still confused about the origin of their ancestry. One day they are tracing their roots to Sudan, next day it's Togo, before you digest that information they'll switch to Ghana.

That explains why Tinubu is confused about his origin.

Please stop saying what. You don't know,am from badagry and we are not from old ife,av never heard of high Chief wawu before,we are not a subset of Yoruba,nor are we from Ghana...we are Eguns or Ogu...a subset of fon people of West Africa..see.

They are all Yoruba from Ile Ife.

LagbajaTheBEREAN:
How about the Ewe speaking folks? I've seen some of them in Agbadarigi (not resident but indigenes) and also some of them indigenous to Ghana.

Anyway, I find the Egun link to the Yorubas quite absurd, I'm not denying historical context though but the languages is far apart make we no deceive ourselves, only a Yoruba who had stayed long enough in Ogu land, has shown a deep interest in learning the language can actually communicate in Egun but you can't just pick a Yoruba man from Ile-Ife and you expect such a man to understand Egun, it's nearly impossible.

With all the years spent outside Badagry and Ipokia, I find it hard understanding mother tongue but I can't say the same thing for when it comes to communication inYoruba.

VEHINTOLAR:


You need to quickly check into a nearby psychiatric facility for spewing this obvious gibberish ! Awori are not Yoruba,right ? Then tell us who Olofin Ogunfunminire was ? Ode,Awori quarter is in Ile Ife,go there and educate your silly self !

These people always tracing their roots. The one in Ijebu even said they came from Sudan. Lol

Fool! You know nothing. The late Alafin of OYObursted many lies about ile-ife, yet some of you omoale don't want to have sense. Awori is a subgroup of ijebu and are never from Ife.

About Badagry, the indigenous people of Lagos

The coastal town of Badagry, traditionally known as Gbagle, is situated between the city of Lagos, and the border with Benin Republic at Seme. It was cut out of Nigeria in 1863 and eventually added to the state of Lagos as part of Nigeria by the United Kingdom in 1901.

Being the second largest town in Lagos State, Badagry is surrounded by lakes, creeks and island, which makes beaches and resorts one of the major attractions of the ancient town.

1. Badagry is a monarchy headed by the Wheno Aholuship, a king­ship head by the Akran of Badagry and his seven white cap high chiefs. The white cap chiefs administer the eight quarters which Badagry is di­vided into. These divisions are Aho­vikoh, Boekoh, Jegba, Posukoh, Awhanjigo, Asago, Whalako and Ganho.

2. The title of Badagry’s royal father is Oba Akran, a kingship so influential that one of longest commercial avenues (a 2.14kilometere stretch) in Ikeja, Oba Akran Avenue, was named after it.

3. Badagry locals, comprising of the Aworis, Egun, Yoruba and Ogu people, are known for their hospitable disposition and their famous snack, Ajogun, made from cassava, best enjoyed with coconut water sucked from a straw plunged deep into the coconut.

4. Because of its proximity to the ocean, Badagry became the key port for export of African slaves to the Americas. Till date, there is a small museum in the building of the first Christian mission that showcases the manacles and other relics of the hugely lucrative and barbaric trade in humans.

5. Founded in the 15th century, Badagry was said to have been named from a dual corruption of Agbedegreme (which means Agbedeh’s farm in “Ogu” language) to Agbedagari and Agbedagari to Badagry by Yoruba settlers and European slave traders respectively. It is believed that Agbedeh was the famous farmer who founded the town.

6. Badagry served as the auction point for slaves captured during the inter-village warfare. Well, let's know more about this ancient tribe. Although the people belong to the Yoruba tribe of Southwest Nigeria, they speak a distinct language from the main Yoruba spoken in its land.

7. Notable Badagry indigenes

Late Oba Claudius Dosa Akran was a Nigerian politician and traditional title holder who represented Badagry in parliament in 1951 and held the title of Aholu Jiwa II of Jegba.
