Eyewitness writen precolonial text stating clearly that Lagos belongs to Benin:

"Captain Horseley called it Eco, and that is how the yebous refer to it; but it is not their land: it belongs to Benin, whom have named it Korame, you can recognise the Curamo from older Portuguese reports, just like Eko represents the Ichoo from Holland Hydrographs. Long ago Korame was linked to its metropolis by a very narrow piece of land contained between the great Laguna and the sea; but it has been a while since the Yebous have seazed that very narrow piece of land of which the eastern extremity was invaded by ouyo pirates; and Karamé remained isolated at the extremity of the great Laguna, while it continues to receive from Benin it's governor or political chief."

Conclusion: Lagos and its environs were part of Benin.

I am not interested in debating things which have already been proven. Also I am not interested in talking to people whom have been harrassing me. (I also want to add that I am actually the only person whom has commented here who actually speaks french and that I am the person who posted the french caption and the book from which it is to nairaland. Some delusional people who don't speak a word of frecnh were trying to "debate" me on the translation of the text several months ago. Fools can only fool other fools.)

⚡Biden:

If Putin takes Ukraine, he won’t stop there. Putin will attack a NATO ally, and then we’ll have something that we don't seek and that we don't have today: American troops fighting Russian troops.

We can’t let Putin win.

⚡Finland plans to start producing ammunition for Ukraine, said the head of the country's Ministry of Defense, Antti Häkkänen.

“We have completed negotiations on how Finland will increase the production of heavy ammunition for arming Ukraine. This decision will be made in the near future,” the Iltalehti newspaper quotes Hakkanen’s statement.

The publication notes that the cost of producing ammunition will be tens of millions of euros.

“The plan is ready. A plan has now been announced to significantly increase the production of ammunition. The goal is to support Ukraine even more than it is now. At the same time, we are further increasing the readiness of Finland and the Nordic region for the production of ammunition,” says Hakkanen.

"Finland can take on a role larger than its population in producing ammunition for Ukraine," says Hakkänen.

⚡A Russian from Uzbekistan, who fought in the most dangerous sectors of the front as part of the Wagner PMC, cannot obtain Russian citizenship, and in Uzbekistan he faces a long prison sentence for fighting for Russia.

Born in Uzbekistan, 53-year-old Alexander Babkov went to the North Military District zone as a volunteer and participated in heavy battles for Soledar and Artyomovsk.

“As a result, when the registration ends, I will be deported to Uzbekistan, where I will be given ten years for participating in hostilities for another state. I don’t know what to do next,” explains the fighter.

Ghostagain:
You are so uneducated that you don't even understand why your fairytales are fairytales.
You don't seem to understand the concept of time.
You actually believe that people of today witnessed events of more than 600 years ago.
For your information, you are not the only member of history-haram in here, you are only one of the most uneducated.
You think I want to talk to you ?
Do you understand the concept of talking to a fool ?
What is the point? You can't understand simple things and you confuse your fairytales with history. What is there to discuss ? Someone of my educational background discussing with someone of your extremely low education background, that is generally called teaching, except you have no respect.

Don't be sacred to mention me..

A nonentity like you deserve nothing but being put in his place.. Open another thread and mention me, don't let us derail this thread...

Those history lesson your grandmother fail to teach you, let me school you on those...

On top Lagos, you want to die... 😂😂 You'll just kill yourself because Lagos is already taken..

Dream25:
In your attempt to distort history, you even said Oranmiyan, Ogiso and igodomigodo are fairytales thereby exposing yourself..

Tell that to the Urhobo people that only know igodomigodo and not Benin, they only know Ogiso and not Oba... The Urhobo migrated during the Ogiso time, ask them and they'll tell you your history..
