First of all wikipedia is not a source and is not reliable in any manner.
Second of all, the Lagos which fought the british was under the authority of the Oba of Benin.
You people's myth about the awori has been going on for too long.
As every precolonial map indicates, Lagos was part of Benin Kingdom.
The only tribe which now calls itself yoruba and which fought the brits is called jebu.
Did you give me source to prove Kanuri, Fulani, Benin etc resisted the British? Show me any reliable source to that effect.

Who told you Kosoko was under the authority of Benin as at that time?


Do you have a source to back up your claim?


Adubi war the Egbas fought was about what?




Edit
On 11 June, a party of soldiers, recently returned from East Africa, were brought in to help police the area and keep the peace. On 13 June, Egba rebels pulled up railway lines at Agbesi and derailed a train. Other rebels demolished the station at Wasimi and murdered the British agent; the Oba Osile, the African leader of the north-eastern Egba district.[2] Hostilities between the 30,000 rebels and colonial troops continued for about three weeks at Otite, Tappona, Mokoloki and Lalako but by the 10th July, the rebellion had been put down and the leaders killed or arrested.[2]

What is your source ?
Don't give me a blog, give me real documentation.
Your people are well known for rewriting history at will.

Although, after my own personal research, I am glad to see that one tribe (the jebu) who now identifies with yoruba actually had balls.
I am still waiting for the ooni of ife and the alaffin of oyo, what were they doing when africa was being invaded ?
They were bowing down to the british without giving a fight.
Out of all you guys who claim to be "plenty pass everybody", only the few jebu had enough balls to give a fight to the brits.
This is my source.

Moreover, not only one resisted Egba and Awori also resisted.

This is the source for Egba.

[b]Battle of November 25, 1851 Edit
The first attack on November 25, 1851 was hastily organized and led by Commander Forbes who underestimated Oba Kosoko's defenses of about 5,000 men armed with muskets. Commander Forbes attack party consisted of 306 officers, men, marines and sailors aboard HMS Bloodhound along with 21 boats. Though the HMS Bloodhound sustained heavy fire from canons from the shore, a landing party went ashore but met very stiff resistance. By nightfall, the British had sustained 2 casualties and 10 injuries and Commander Forbes ordered a retreat.[7]

Battle of December 26, 1851 Edit
The battle of December 26, 1851 was termed by Lagosians Ogun Ahoyaya/Ogun Agidingbi (translated, "The Boiling Battle"wink. Captain Jones led the attack party consisting HMS Bloodhound, HMS Teaser, a flotilla of boats including The Victoria and The Harlequien equipped with overwhelming fighting power engaged Kosoko in a battle lasting 3 days. Kosoko put up a very stiff resistance however the British Navy's superior firepower won the day. Kosoko and his leading chiefs fled Lagos for Epe on December 28, 1851. According to Samuel Davies, a Saro and younger brother of JPL Davies who participated on the British side aboard HMS Bloodhound, Kosoko would have inflicted great losses on the British Navy had he not relied solely on static defenses but had deployed his war canoes with their swivel guns.[7] The British sustained 15 casualties and 75 wounded men. A young JPL Davies was among the wounded.[8]

Akitoye was taken ashore on December 29 to assess the bombarded town and accepted the loyalty of the chiefs to his installation as Oba of Lagos. On December 30, the British Navy dismantled all Kosoko's batteries and dumped 46 of his war guns at sea[/b].[7]

About Ibadan and others, they were engaged in 16 years civil war when the British came hence British allowed them to kill themselves.

And children of anger, frustration and hate want us to abandon a clearly working government for one whose candidate has shown us his natural affinity for wanton looting of our resources, a kleptomaniac at that act!.

Forbes rated Nigerian economy as the best performing economy in Africa.

Now, this news from a good ambassador from across the Niger has equally said:

"things are changing in Nigeria and it appears our economic managers have finally gotten a strong grip on the economy.”

"Our group is in the process of closing a $2.5 billion oil asset acquisition in the country. We are doing this as a demonstration of confidence in the economy. If the economy was not good or improving, we would not be contemplating that".



If your brain is already Athiefkulooted by the fraud called Atiku, not all of us we suffer such unfortunate occurrence.
The economy derived from Atikulootingnology is dead. Never again. Sai Baba! grin

Politics › Re: Fayemi’s Appointments Characterized By High Level Of Religious Discrimination – by forgiveness: 2:21pm On Oct 24, 2018
Tmmycash:
The Muslim Students’ Society of Nigeria (MSSN) B-Zone on Tuesday alleged that the first set of appointments by Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State was with high level of religious discrimination against Muslims in the state.

MSSN in a statement signed by Barrister Qaasim Odedeji (Amir/Zonal Coordinator), Alh Abdul Jalil AbdurRasaq (Secretary) and Engr Bashir Momoh (Public Relations Officer), a copy of which was made available to DAILY POST in Ibadan described the appointed of Secretary to the State Government, Chief of Staff and Chief Press Secretary (all Christians) as “a breach of trust and clear departure from the principles of objective policy embedded in the 1999 constitution”.

The association said, “Fayemi is holding the position for the second term. In his first term in office, he appeared a bit fair to the Muslims in comparison to his predecessors in office.

This attitude of Fayemi endeared him to Muslims in Ekiti State and beyond who saw in him a sense of fairness and a true demonstration of what a “Right Activist” and leader of civil society organization that he was before turning a politician should be.

“Therefore, Dr Fayemi got an overwhelming support of Ekiti Muslims who constitute about 40 per cent of the entire population of Ekiti state in his bid to return to office in 2014 and 2018 governorship elections.

“It is also important to state that the position of the Muslims as stated above was paid for when Ayodele Fayose won the 2014 election and did not hide his hatred for the Muslims in words and actions. Therefore, it was not surprising that Fayemi got the Muslims’ support in 2018 election despite various antics employed by Mr Fayose to secure the Muslim’s votes by hook and trickery.

It is, therefore, a breach of trust and clear departure from the principles of objective policy embedded in 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria when Dr John Kayode Fayemi named his Secretary to State Government, Chief of Staff and Chief Press Secretary with all of them Christians making Ekiti government now fully Christianized.

“The MSSN B-ZONE, covering the entire 17 States of Southern Nigeria including Ekiti State, rejects this appointments and considers them unfair, irresponsible, discriminatory and insensitive to the highest order. It is an attempt to paint Muslims as non-existent in the politics of Ekiti State. Is Fayemi claiming that there are no Muslims who are qualified to hold those positions within the fold of his party in Ekiti State? How come no such discrimination is seen in any other South West states where Muslims are a clear majority.

“We wonder if Fayemi is now initiated into the club of the people of his faith who find religious solace in the marginalization of Islam and the Muslims? Or perhaps he has an accord to subjugate and marginalize Muslims? With who he might have had such accord is also a thing of wonder. Could it be the Christian Association of Nigeria? Or is it just that Dr Fayemi has developed so much disregard for Muslims?

“Against the above background, we call on the leadership of APC in Nigeria and in particular Ekiti State to prevail on Dr Fayemi to, as a matter of urgency, reverse the recently-made appointments and reconstitute same in a fair and equitable manner.

MSSN, however, urged Fayemi to consider equity and fairness in his subsequent appointment of commissioners and advisers among others.

They said, “We also call on Dr Fayemi to consider equity and fairness in his subsequent appointment of Commissioners, Advisers, Chairmen and Members of Boards and Parastatals.

“The MSSN B-Zone is determined, more than ever before, to work in collaboration with other groups with similar objectives in making sure that Muslims are not relegated to background in any State of our jurisdiction and we are ready to take actions necessary including but not limited to legal action against any government or it’s official trying to treat us as second-class citizens in this Country. And let whoever cares know that the era when people use their office to subjugate and undermine the position of Muslims is gone for good Inshaa Allah”.
Ekiti constitute 40% of Muslims? shocked

Who can confirm this?

gare:
This Project was awarded during the GEJ Administration and work was ongoing before the change in Government, the project was paid for and no money was missing, the fact that it was not completed during the time of that administration does not mean the money was missing, APC coming to complete the Airport is a good one, dont come here a tell lies because you want to make GEJ look bad, the man did his best and may be it was not good enough that was why he was sent packing, PMB has come and done the little he can do and most Nigerians feel he should go and rest, it is not a do or die thing.

This country belongs to us all be it good or bad, the airport will be used by all APC, PDP so why make s much noise about, whoever wins next years general election will work for the good of all Nigerians, stop all this My APC and My PDP, if Atiku wins will that make you relocate from Nigeria? Or if PMB wins will that make PDP fans leave Nigeria? No, despite the fact that PMB has asked some people to leave Nigeria, that is not the way a true leader should speak.
Gej could not complete the project after 5 years but Bubu finished it within 3 years. grin sai Buhari! grin
