Are you aware that the name "Africa" is a Greek word ?
Does that mean that Africa was first a Greek settlement?

Edit: Africa is a Roman word, not Greek.

Raf4:


It is only a foool and slowpoke fraud like you that will believe that the same place the Portuguese visited, met indigenous people and established trading contacts with in 1472 was founded in 1630 by one set of people from over 400km away.

Raf4:

So how come a morọn like you is telling stories of the same events of over 600yrs ago?

OyinO:


If it were you, you'll insult me over this correction. Nansense an ingredient

Ghostagain:

1. I never said Lagos was founded in 1630. I showed you a map published in 1630, your brain is very confused.
2. The earliest maps and records of the region which mention Lagos all claim Lagos is a part of Benin
3) once again, you confuse Benin kingdom with its capital city (Benin city). Lagos is a part of Benin kingdom !
Map of Africa published in 1747 below.
4. It is like your brain can't register. You have to be corrected several times in the same thing. All I have just said here, I already told them to you.
5. Your intelligence is so limited, yet you think you belong in discussions about history.
6. Your onis are liars, they always have been, they were originally priests and they lied themselves into being considered kings and now they are calling themselves emperors 🤣 the same Ife which nobody can find in ancient maps 😂 when was Ife ever an empire as opposed to a small village?

Ghostagain:

I'm quoting papers written by people who witnessed the era. Why is this so difficult for you to understand?
Why do I constantly have to repeat it ?
Do you understand the meaning "eyewitness written documents" ?

.

Raf4:


And I'm asking you to mention the names of eye witnesses whose papers you're quoting now. Give the names of authors of those phantom eyewitness written documents.

Ghostagain:

I literally posted links to the websites hosting the documents.
Your head is very thick.
And of course your previous comment is you repeating your unsubstantiated claims again.

History-haram is a name which fits a fanatic like you.
Sense just can't enter your head.

Omobude244:

ozuor
ife owns benin but whenever Oba of Benin and Ooni meets, Ooni always stood up for the Oba

Raf4:


So, when was the 1st Oba of Lagos installed?

Raf4:


In your widest day dreams. Even in the arrangement of kings according to their seniority, your oba is not even among the first 5.
Ooni of Ife, Sultan of Sokoto, Alaafin of Oyo, Awujale of Ijebu, Olowu of Orile Owu, before your Oba of Bini is considered probably after Shehu of Borno.

Omobude244:

oh
i tot i was arguing with a human being with sense
now i know it is all sentiments
the same people that claimed tinubu is better than obi because of sentiment. i am not surprised though

go and learn ur history
or enjoy ur ignorance

peace out

Abagworo:


It was in reference to Oyo. Do thorough research.

Thebadpolitican:


Check it out ooni is a fraud

Ghostagain:

Look, you are too dumb to discuss history. Stop mentioning me. You can't learn, stop wasting my time.

Raf4:


Your elders at home are dumb. Dunce.

nobaga:
Do not let these fraudulent nonentities, trying tooth and nail to snatch victory from the top, drag you into roforofo fight.

I understand why they have to be set straight and educated because if lies are repeated often enough, gullible people believe themselves.

They have been ignored for too long. Do you really think they do not know they are liars and fraud that never had tangible history until Oba displayed their Ogiso. Even their own Ogiso known to the minorities within them as wicked, has been denied.

Raf4:


1.Dispute the fact that the Portuguese sailed into Ereko/Eko/Lagos Island in 1472 and met Aworis/Yoruba there
2. Provide the date the 1st Oba of Ereko/Eko/Lagos was installed.
3. Now reconcile the events and prove how Bini founded Lagos or how Lagos belongs to Bini.

Thebadpolitican:


My screenshot to you says even the Portuguese called it eko, curomo meaning ekonuame the full word the Benin gave to the lagos settlement

The Portuguese had their own name they gave the settlement they likened lagos as one of their city in Portugal called lagos and they nicknames it in their text as lagos interchangeably with the word eko

Raydos:
The fact that it's not even only Lagos that bears the name "Èkó" in Yoruba land has sealed the deal,

Because some Benin claimed "Eko" is a Benin word lol,

Just like the word "Akin" a yoruba word for a Strong man
And "Akin" A English word for something of similar nature

Because these words almost sound the same and has the same spellings in both Yoruba and English does that make English people the owner of Yoruba language?

Lol

Here are 7 other places in Yoruba land that also bears the name "Èkó"

Raf4:


I mentioned names of about 5 communities that still exist till today, yet you're still pretending.
If you say Eko means war camp or arsenal in bini language, howcome there's no single Eko in Bini city or anywhere again in Bini territory? Only a fool will believe that Bini, in 15th/16th century went about 400km away to establish war camp in an area already surrounded by many existing communities like Ijebus, Ilajes, Oyos, Dahomy etc.

Thebadpolitican:


LOL the yorubas people were the ones that named lagos curomo

You don't get eko is the short version of the original called eko-nuahme mispronounced by Europeans as curomo

cevek11:
Does it mention Benin, or the relation to Benin? If not, it's likely just another story book

Procashtips:

Too noisy set of a people.

Ghostagain:

Is it possible that these guys don't understand the meaning of the verb "to found" ?
In many of their online papers, and on social media they seem very confused. First of all they deliberately misquote the Oba of Benin. Then they confuse "to found" with "to find".

sotall:
You want to talk about history of Lagos and you are quoting a book written in 1913 by Yoruba Revisionists.

Like seriously

And some of you dont even go near that part that talks about Aworis paying tax to the Benins.

One of the many truths that prevails but you cant accept it.
