IronGalaxy:
Exactly the type of question I expect from you.

Gjrich:
The Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, has claimed that Lagos State is not part of Yoruba land.

Akiolu’s statement is coming barely a week after he publicly humiliated the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi at an event.

In a statement from Akiolu’s palace, the monarch traced the historical background of the state and why it should not be regarded as part of Yoruba land.

The statement reads: “Coming from the palace, with what I was told by my late paternal grandmother who is a descendant of Oba Ovonramwen Nogbaisi and also reading from factual Historical books, let me share this Knowledge with you all on Eko/Lagos.

“Modern day Lagos was founded by Prince Ado, the son of the Oba of Benin, Prince Ado was the first Oba of Lagos, the son of the Bini King, Prince Ado, named the town Eko until the Portuguese explorer Ruy de Segueira changed the Maritime town to Lagos, which at that time from 1942 was Portuguese expedition center down the African Coast.

“It was a major centre of the slave trade until 1851. Lagos was annexed by Britain via the Lagos treaty of cession in 1861, ending the consular period and starting the British Colonial Period. The remainder of modern day Nigeria was seized in 1886 when the Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria was established in 1914 Lagos was declared its capital due to the struggle of the Bini King.

“Lagos experienced growth prior to the British Colonial rule and even more rapid growth during the Colonial rule throughout the 1960s, 70s, continued through the 80s and 90s till date. Thanks to the Awori’s, Bini’s, Yoruba’s, migrants across the nation and world at large, as no particular group of people can take the glory alone.

“Lagos is made up of Lagoons and creeks. The Lagos lagoon, Lagos Harbour, five cowne creeks, Ebute-Metta creeks, Porto-Novo creeks, New canal, Badagry creeks, Kuramo waters and Light house creeks.

“The Awori’s and Bini’s are known to be the first settlers of the Eko land. The Awori’s are speakers of a distinct dialect close to that of the Yoruba language with a rich Bini mixture. Traditionally, Awori’s were found in Ile-Ife, they were known to be the Bini’s who followed their self-exiled Prince, the first son of the Ogiso (now called Oba) of Benin Kingdom, whose step-mother was after his head.

“The exiled Benin Prince Izoduwa known to the Yorubas as Ooduwa (Oduduwa) was made ruler of the Ife people due to his powers and followers from the Great Benin-Kingdom.

“Izoduwa (Ooduwa) was made the first King of Ile-Ife in 1230 AD. His followers from his father’s Kingdom in Benin are the today’s Awori people who settled in Eko now called Lagos.

“In the 1300, the King of Benin-Empire heard from one of his traders who was a settler in Eko on how the Bini’s were treated by the Awori’s who lived in their area. Upon hearing this, the King of Benin commanded the assembling of a war expedition, led by his son, Prince Ado, which headed the settlement of the Awori’s and demanded explanation.

“On arriving Eko, Prince Ado and his Army were more than received. The Aworis asked the Bini Prince to stay and become their leader. Ado agreed on the condition that they surrender their sovereignty to the Oba of Benin, to which the people agreed. Hearing this, the King of Benin gave his permission for Prince Ado and the expedition to remain in Eko.

“The Oba of Benin sent some of his chiefs including the Eletu, Odibo, Obanikoro and others to assist his son, Oba Ado in the running of Eko.

“From the crowing of Prince Ado as the first Oba of Lagos (then called Eko), Lagos served as a major center for slave trade from which the Aworis, the Oba of Benin and his son the Oba of Lagos and all the children/descendants who took over as his successors for over four centuries supported the trade.

“The Oba of Benin was the head of the Benin Empire which are the present day Western, Southern and Eastern modern day Nigeria. The King never obliged anyone to speak the Bini language as he believed everyone was entitled

IronGalaxy:
Not interested

IronGalaxy:
Now you're just trolling

XhosaNostra:
So you want me to have my own Naija pet to chase around with a shoe? Isn't that how your media portrayed the South African lady, as a ball breaker?

JaceBlaze:
No that's you.Claiming you saw a South African in Makoko...Makoko is a slum that never sleeps

JaceBlaze:
If you kick South African companies out of that cesspit it won't be long before you savages turn into Jeffery Dahmer clones.You will be eating raw human organs and we will be watching.

IronGalaxy:
Shit doesn't bother me, we all know which country is a slum. Argue this till you turn beige blue

Problemkid1:
What about this ones you hosted the World's largest slums, and you still have the guts to spew trash. Stupid prick

XhosaNostra:

IronGalaxy:
Where was it established?

IronGalaxy:
Don't tell me about now, where was Vodacom established? you like arguing over every little thing, you Nigerians are little children sometimes

IronGalaxy:
MTN, Cell C, Vodacom all South African companies, where are the lies there?

JaceBlaze:
You were seeing glitches in a matrix.A South African in Makoko?

JaceBlaze:
And we are supposed to take stats compiled by your jungle at face value? when you don't even know how many people die a year from Boko Haram & Fulani?


Have you ever bumped into a South African in the streets of Kirikiri?

IronGalaxy:
look at this one... It's the other way around olodo. we introduced proper retail in your zoo otherwise you'd still be buying tuxedos from street vendors. Take South African companies from that cave many of you will be out of jobs. Where would you watch your beloved EPL if multichoice decides to leave that jungle? Lol


FYI, those companies were already successful before they even branched out of SA, Vodacom for example is only based in SA and yet it's bigger than MTN.
