Greenbullet:
Well,most guys thought this day will never come and many girls have been waiting for this just to know if their guys are sex maniacs,today i give you three confirmed tips on how to know a male virgin
1:the penis of a male virgin has an intact connector at the head this means each end of the head is not seperated from the hole which urine and sperm pours out but a non virgins own is very far away[check yourself niggas.]
2: if the complete head of the penis is whitish this means ur guy is a non virgin but brown means virgin .
3:the right ball of a penis is longer in male virgins but in non male virgins it is nearly equal to the left ball.[check urself]

ball as in? u mean testicules?

VickJames:
Why are you being emotional online

You should learn to argue without any form of emotions.

Now, you said Lagos is portuguese and its translation is eko? Oh please, this is language you guys infused into your language to be able to claim the land. The etymology of the "eko" is not yoruba. That means its not a yoruba land.



Calm down bro and argue without insults.

so if they asked you who are the native people of Eko now you don't knw? all tribes in nigeria and d world knows this except the envious igbos that's about to leave

Flyoruboy:
If they like they should cook, spice, fry and fabricate a spurious history that suits their wet dreams. None of that will change the fact that Yorubas are and will always remain the Landlords of Lagos. Make them go build their own for SE Dem no gree. Instead na Yorubaland Dem dey feju mo. Na wah.

Don't mind them jawe OP seriously we need to kick them out cuz they are too stubborn out of d tribes in Lagos.

VickJames:
The yorubas will not let this thread see the light of day. They'll attack with different lies like oduduwa wooed his first in eko or sango went for a summer holiday in epe those days.

We all know the history of Lagos, its just that based on the proximity of their states to Lagos, they came in numbers more than the real owners.

Now, yorubas, is "oba" your language?

what do you knw about yoruba? talk about the east... Yoruba own lagos the world knows this. igbo cannot rewrite history that has long being written before the igbo came

igbos envy lagos seriously, that's why they are claiming they are native of the precious city o Eko o ni baje o

huangcheng:
Having been born and bred in Lagos and armed with deep knowledge of Nigeria ancient and tribal history.

Actually one of the first settlers in downtown Lagos were Aworis. Then came the Benin who set up the Lagos Monarchy (A Benin prince) and named the city Eko. Up till today, the Oba of Lagos is still a Benin Prince.

However with the advent of the Portuguese and British, they started developing other parts of present day Lagos - which hitherto, were forest, bushes, swamps and creek.

What followed were MIGRATION of people from different parts of present day Nigeria and Africa continents such as Togo, Benin Republic etc.

YORUBA MIGRANTS TO LAGOS

For many of you who were born in the 80s or were not residing in Lagos in the 70s, let me tell you that Yorubas like most people in Lagos today, were also MIGRANTS to Lagos to work and better their lives. To access the Federal Govt special focus for development in Lagos. To them, migrating to Lagos was a greener pasture.

I personally witnessed the INFLUX of people into Lagos in the 70s and early 80s. They were mostly from the present day Osun, Ogun and Oyo states.

They loathed and very much DISSOCIATED themselves from being link to Lagos. They hated being called or referred to as 'Omo Eko'.

You hear them say, "Emi onse ara eko o, omo ilu oke lemi o " (Am not a Lagosian, am a proper indigene of...)

They were very PROUD to tell they're in Lagos to work, hustle and go back home. They referred to Lagos as "oko" (farm, work place) - not HOME! This prayer were common then: "ki olorun je ako ere oko dele o" (May God help us prosper and go back home with prosperity)

WHEN DID YORUBA START CLAIMING LAGOS?

Now the generation who migrated to Lagos, either came with their wives or later married in Lagos. Of course most NEVER married Lagos based girls, they traveled back to their country homes to pick wives back to Lagos.

In the year 1990, Ibrahim Babangida finished and commissioned the MASSIVE 3rd Mainland Bridge in Lagos. It was a sight to behold; the biggest and most profound Bridge, arguably in the whole of Africa then. It was a big fanfare.

That was the beginning of "Lagos is Yorubaland" among the younger generation of Yoruba MIGRANTS to Lagos.

The younger generation of the Yoruba MIGRANTS were 'waohed' and in their emotional ECSTASY started saying to themselves; "Nnkan toda sele nile yoba" (good things happening in Yorubaland and such cliches.

Gradually, that mantra spread. And as economic activities grow further, competition for economic space couple with rising employment and population explosion, the younger generation started 'fighting' telling others "Lagos is Yorubaland" to gain advantage.

CHILDREN Of YORUBA MIGRANTS IN 20s - 30s AGE BRACKET

Over the years, however it has assumed a formidable CULTURE among their children who were born in Lagos in the mid-80s to the early 20s.

And for these young boys and girls (now in their 20s and 30s), who were born and raised during the ERA of "Lagos is Yorubaland" are the ones CHAMPIONING this course now.

They're everywhere online. Whenever the issue of region crops us, a young lady/man from Ogun state (maybe Egba, Ijebu) will bring Lagos to his/her defense.

BUT WHY THIS UNFORTUNATE TREND?

It is not their fault at all. First realize that most they don't know their parents ancestral homes and UNLIKE their parents and grannies, they were NOT grilled into their ancestral lineage.

In facts, majority can't speak their own dialects. They are NOT proud of their ancestry because EVERYTHING about them is Lagos. And having hear all their lives that "Lagos is Yorubaland" have made it extremely difficult for this generation to EXTRICATE themselves from this fallacy.

POLITICIANS ARE MILKING IT

Trust politicians and tribal leaders, who'd been applying this trend to not only stay in power looting the state dry, but are CHEATING everyone in the process.

These evil people (politicians and tribal leaders) have consistently promote the "Lagos is Yorubaland" to the Yoruba MIGRANTS over the years, to achieve THREE benefits:

1) To suppress the Aworis and other first indigens to their rights in Lagos;

2) To have a complete PERPETUITY and CONTROL over Lagos wealth;

3) To use the misguided children of the Yoruba MIGRANTS to fight their fights. To put them in arms way when crises breaks out.

For example, during the last election, thousands of this generation were PRIMED to do battle to 'defend Lagos' with their lives, while TINUBU, Fashola and others had carefully smuggled their families abroad.

PS: Just watch out on this forum, how this same Yoruba generation whose parent MIGRATED to Lagos, will start raining abuses and insults on me. Just take time to read the quotes later
