I believe you're one of those people who believe oduduwa fell from the sky.

Ijebus are Jews who migrated from Sudan. Just as oduduwa migrated with his people from Saudi Arabia.

Stop peddling falsehood as history

Ijebus migrated from ile - ife they were among the first people that Oduduwa met in Ile - ife, their Ancestors Obanta was a prince of one of the ruling faction in ile ife before Oduduwa arrived, after Oduduwa arrived there was a war to unify ile ife.

He left with his people after they lost the war and later founded Ijebu kingdom it was also the same reason that Ijebu people hardly associate with Oyo Empire and it was also the same reason that King of Ijebu concocted that Sudan story so as not to be under Ooni of Ife influence.

Ooni of Ife is an Oduduwa descendant and the Ijebu still aren't happy with the way they left ile - ife back then. They believe Ile - ife ruling dynasty belong to them.

Ijebu people are not jew same way Oduduwa didn't migrated from Saudi Arabia

Oduduwa was a Yoruba man from Ijesha Land because of the role he played in Yoruba land they made him a Gods through that story of descending from the sky, same way Yoruba Gods were once real people that lived among Yoruba before they died, for example Ogun and Sango, sango was an Alaafin of Oyo Empire before he died, but they turned his history to a myth to make him a gods.

you just a very ignorant person.. are you a Badagarian? have u ever been to Badagry to be talking about the people? am from Badagry my family compound is not far from the Akran palace... my uncle was former commissioner of Education in lagos state in the 80s under Babangida regime... so don't come online disputing my history for me and try to learn is not a bad thing to admit when you wrong online... Who tell you Sango, Ogun are Egun Gods... besides we don't call ourselves Egun... its either Ogu or Gunnu... period.

There's nothing like Gunnu or Badagrian. You dey ment. Meanwhile, you do realise that Awori are co-owner of Badagry and as a matter of fact, Awori are the real natives of Badagry before Egun fled from Dahomey captive to coexist with Awori in Badagry? I repeat, Ogun, Sango, Ifa, Okun etc are the gods in Badagry. Sink that into your skull. It's even stupid to argue with an ignorant like you in the first place considering you can see Egun king in yoruba costumes and attires from crown to feet yet you're still spewing gibberish. Na ment?

Ekealterego:
What do you mean your language is not your root?
Language says more about your root and history than any thing. Language is a bundle of your roots, history, battles and war expressed via sounds.

Do you mean Yoruba language does not define Yoruba people. When the name of your language is literarily the name of your people. Igbos speak Igbo. Yorubas speak Yoruba but the language is not the people? Guy please don't disappoint people with any iota of sense.

If Yoruba language is for Yorubas and Igbo language is for Igbos why are you contesting that Ógu/Egun should not define Egun people?

As per language classification. It is NOT an OPINION that Ógu is not a Yoruba language nor even close, it's a SCIENTIFIC fact.

It is possible that Ijebu and Ilaje could have an ógu sound, it shows past and present relationship which is a fact with all neighbouring languages. They can be mutually influential. However, by fact and not by folklore of a earth bound, heaven evicted creature who layed eggs all by himself to father children singlehandedly. Ógu do not speak a close language to Yoruba neither do they identify as Yorubas.

If Yoruba isn't part of Egun's language, then what's 'dugbe'? Na ment? Meanwhile dugbe is a town in Oyo state.

That said, your root isn't linked to your language but culture and historical root. Egun's culture and root are Yorubas. Their language though modified is a variant of Yoruba.

I know why you're laying emphasis on language and not culture because of Ikwerre, Agbor etc who denied being Igbo despite speaking a variant of Igbo. Point is check their culture and their root. Their culture and root stemmed from Binis. Of course their language got modified by the Igbos they interracted with but their roots, culture and old language are all Binis.

oga go and sit the hell down... my step siblings are aworis from Mowo after Age Mowo
. aworis are not indigenous after Mowo..
they are not in Ajido. Ajara,or Badagry... Infact Badagarians were pushed from current OJo into Badagry now over the last centuries they are the real owners of the land the aworis were the migrants.. if you been there the historical evidence are there..
aworis settlements are new.
Gunnu which is what we actually call ourselves is ancient.
it should be embarrassing to you to be talking about someone's else lineage.. and apparently you ve not left the confine of you village thats why you will say that crown on Akran head is yoruba crown.. am half Gunnu and half Yorùbá.. when your elders are talking go and sit your ass down and shut up ad learn about what you don't know.

Awori who owns the majority of Lagos apart from Ijebus are migrants in Badagry? Na ment? Go read on Egun history. They fled from Dahomey captive.

And yeah that crown on the king of Egun is a beaded crown like oduduwa's crown. You dey blind or what? Na ment?

You copied and pasted your rehearsed gibberish again.

I repeat, How could Awori who are the major owner of Lagos apart from the Ijebus be a migrant in Badagry? Na ment? Rather it was Egun who fled from Dahomey captive.

Ignorant clown who doesn't know nada.

The name 'Egun is a Yoruba name yet you're still spewing gibberish.

Egun's king wear Yoruba costumes from crown to feet yet you're still spewing gibberish?

Egun stemmed from Popo who's one of the offsprings of Oduduwa yet you're still spewing gibberish?

Meanwhile, You didn't even know that Yoruba spanned all the way from Nigeria to Benin and Togo. Yoruba isn't just an ethnic group but a race.

Ibadan Ijebu,Ilorin and Abeokuta were part of the Lagos Colony please Correct your information


At independence only Lagos Island was the Capital of Nigeria all other Areas like Yaba , Lagos Mainland, Surulere and Apapa were only leased from the Western Region as Lagos Island had run out of Space


ikeja included all Mainland and Metropolitan Lagos

At independence the Western Region included all of Lagos State except Lagos Island Which was Nigeria’s Capital
Even after Lagos State was created in 1967 Lagos Island was still the Capital

Below is the 1962 map of the Western Region including ikeja

I hail from the same Ilaje

Damisic:

Abeokuta and Ibadan were part of Lagos Colony the Lagos Colony included all of the Western Region , Ilorin was added later around 1897

Lagos Island was the Capital of Nigeria and it ended at the Carter Bridge the other Places you mentioned were officially in the Western Region but were only Leased from the Western Region because FG at Lagos Island had completely run out of Space

Or do you think Apapa Port , Tincan Island and Lagos Airport at Ikeja is not in the Western Region?

Look at the Map Of Awolowo’s Western Region Lagos at Independence, Again only Lagos Island the Capital Was not under his Administration but it was still Geographically part of the Western Region everywhere else in Lagos State was also in the Western Region

Take a look at your fake Map again how could Adamawa State be in the Eastern Region and Niger State be in the Western Region?

All your Maps are post 1956 and Even then all Lagos Was part of the Western Region


Not only was Lagos in the Western Region but Ikeja in Lagos was the commercial Capital of the Western Region after Premier Awolowo moved it from Ibadan

Ikeja was built by Awolowo

Now how Could Ikeja in Central Lagos be the Commercial Capital of the Western Region if Lagos was not part of the Western Region already?

The Western Region Came into existence in 1956

In 1887 Ibadan and Abeokuta were part of the Lagos Colony,Ilorin was added around 1897

Let me even give you more information

The British even included Lagos Island in the Western Region in 1956 because they recognized it was part of Yorubaland as everyone with 2 God given eyes can see clearly

Even today all Lagos belongs to the SW
