But you've been claiming Lagosian. That is sad... Go through what you wrote again. Your dad is from Ondo, your mum is from Imota while yourself is probably from Lagos That's the exact point the article is trying to address. My friend, you're from Ondo and NEVER a Lagosian. That's the problem with most Yoruba migrants in Lagos state. Most of you have forgotten where you come from

VickJames:
Ok, let the argument end here.

VickJames:
Mr, I don't know the school you attended but if you were to write a project and you cite wikipedia, you will re-write the project from the scratch.

Lagos is a portuguese name, while eko is bini language. There's nothing yoruba in both words. If you want to apply logic here, you'll say the binis met the portuguese in eko.

So, yorubas like other tribes are migrants in Lagos.

totit:
Ibo this is for you

huangcheng:
Good then go back to Ondo state and let Lagosians Govern Lagos. Lagosians are not running for elections in Ondo state. Leave Lagos for Lagosians and go back to where you migrated from.

Yorubas go back to your evil forests.

VickJames:
A yoruba man asking me what's the meaning of "eko"?

This is hilarious

VickJames:

You should answer my question first.

huangcheng:
The aforementioned people are the INDIGENOUS LAGOSIANS. Lagos is not for ALL YORUBA as you migrant claim so that you can continue ruling Lagos against the wishes of the indigenous people. Lagos is for Lagosians only, you Yoruba migrant should go back to Oshogbo please.

VickJames:
Stop saying thing you can't verify. How can "eko" mean Lagos?
Lagos is now a yoruba word?

VickJames:
What's the meaning of "eko" in yoruba language?

huangcheng:
Are you a true Lagosian or you MIGRATED like other tribes from Oshogbo? Stick to the topic, what the Op-ed is saying is, Lagos is not YORUBA land, there are indigenous LAGOSIANS.

Go back to Oshogbo ASAP!!!!

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?

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

EVarn:
It cannot,Russia has a massive infantry force and its tank force is even more than that of the US{though most of them are old and obsolete},however Israel can deter Russia from ever formenting any aggression due to Israel's large nuclear stockpile and ICBM technology.
Same way the US cannot invade North Korea,even though North Korea is significantly very weak compared to the US.

Your questions are all repetitive and shows your ignorance. The fact remains that these people were living in peace before Lugard decided to mix oil and water.

uchedydy:
I have been thinking, and imagining, what would the south west be like without Lagos, I.e if Lagos wasn't the capital and did not have those precolonial links. Coz for me Lagos was built by all, oyibo, igbos, Hausa inclusive.

So now, I ask, imagine a south west without Lagos.

Slave get ready for ISWAP


Exactly a month from now America economy will collapse and the legacies of Obama will perish in a pile of dust.


With no US or heathen Obama to defend your jihadist President get ready for ISWAP to overrun your slave region.
