Thebadpolitican: You will notice that Benin is far from Lagos so what would benin be looking for in the Lagos Area in the first place? The ijebu remo and the benin People were very close relatives because oranmiyan the first Oba of benin and the first king of ikorodu had the same mother Whenever oranmiyan went to War they went together and when oranmiyan went to benin the first Oba of ikorodu went to benin with.oranmiyan It was on his return that he founded ikorodu and when the ijebu remo people of ikorodu were having problems with the Awori cousins and neighbours their brothers from benin would turn up to defend them that continued until a disagreement happened between the ijebu remo People and the benin People to the extent that the Remos ended up driving the benin from Lagos It was the Remos that brought the benin to Lagos Area and it was them.again that drove them out Being close relatives is different from Military Occupation o! The Owu Yorubas,the Egbas the Gbagura and the Okeona are all relatives living peacefully together at Abeokuta and willing under the Leadership of the Alake there is nothing to do with Military Occupation or domination in the matter o! It was the same with the Ijebu Remo and the Benin and when the Benin misbehaved the Ijebu Remo drove them out read the Osifekunde Slave narrative A Remnant remained at Isale Eko on Lagos Island and the Remos left them there as an act of Mercy since the only place they could escape to was the Bottom of the Atlantic ocean The ijebu of Lagos State including Ikorodu are mainly ijebu remo People That was why it was from ijebu that the Itsekiri People Migrated to Warri 1 Like |

MSGAMBLE9: Thebadpolitican: Tapa Oshodi was the adopted Nupe son of the Oba of Lagos who sent him and Dada Antonio who was from Ede in Osun State to Portugal and Brazil to be Educated he had no Business with Benin It was the Portuguese Education that made Oshodi to be an outstanding Balogun and most of the time he was fighting the king of Dahomey who also wanted to takeover Lagos You know the kings of Dahomey no take eye see good thing, they were trying to take over Badagry and Abeokuta at the same time The Alaafin and the Oyos defended their Egun allies at Badagry and the Egbas of Abeokuta gave the Dahomey two very heavy beatings at Abeokuta that made the Dahomey to give up every Capturing it It was Oba kosoko's father who had adopted and trained Oshodi Tapa and Oshodi Tapa was ever Loyal to him and his Children even after becoming Powerful and Wealthy Oshodi Tapa was a Nupe Prince who had followed his uncle to Lagos while fleeing the Fulani Jihad which had overun Nupeland and killed his Parents 1 Like |

christistruth01: If oshodi is a name of a nupe person then you have won the argument But if it's a name that is foreign to the nupes and was named by a benin monarch who is the Oba of Lagos, then its a benin name that was named after chief oshodi who brought down Lagos to benin control Simple |

christistruth01: Oromiyan is far tale he never existed he was an idol worshiped by oyo people same as oduduwa No Oromiyan ventured into benin If Oromiyan ventured into benin that's if he managed to exist we should have yoruba words, idols in the palace, atleast few names sounding yorubas as names of street Let me inform you The story of Oromiyan history in benin came as result of the indirect rule system made by the British around 1914 were the use of local kings were paramount so the Oba Eweka 11 who just ascended the throne in 1914 as a result of the war that brought and burnt down the kingdom Sort to find favour from the then ooni of ife who welcomed him as a yoruba son which the Oba accepted, in other to make it cultural synonymous the false claim of Oromiyan history was formed to unite both culture as one Simply the truth So take your Oromiyan shit out of benin history we ruled over the entire Yoruba people |

Efuaye: you mean oba lil wayne of lagos island not Lagos state. Even then the indigenous people of Lagos are Yorubas. Did the binis stop by at one point? probably. But binis are NOT indigenous to Lagos. |

Thebadpolitican: We're talking of the indigenous people of Lagos. Even if Bini people come to Lagos, they are not indigenous to Lagos. They met Yoruba people there. Is like saying the British are indigenous to Nigeria just because they came to Nigeria. Or Europeans are indigenous to America just because they came to America. Yorubas are the ONLY tribe that can claim INDIGENOUSNESS in Lagos. The British and the Binis have no such claim. |

crazygod: There is NO Ijaw that is INDIGENOUS to ONDO state. When Ijaws got to Ondo state Yorubas were ALREADY there. Aworis are Yorubas and they are not even the first Lagosians. The Ijebus were already in Lagos state thousands of years before the Aworis. When it comes to Yoruba heritage, I will continue to lecture you low information and low iq people until you learn to make friends with knowledge and logic. 1 Like 1 Share |
