Blackfire:
So that means the Binis owns lagos




Wahala wahala

1.The Aworis:

more than 70% of Lagos is own by the Aworis. The Benin met the Aworis on Lagos island, conquered them, and the Oba of Benin impose his son as king on Lagos Island alone. Other parts of Lagos are governed by Awori traditional rulers. Even on the island, the chiefs surrounding the king are Yorubas
Note that Awori is a Yoruba tribe


2. Ijebus:

Epe, Ibeju Leki,and Ikorodu are parts of Lagos owned by the Ijebus. An account suggest that these parts of Lagos have being in existence under traditional rulers before Benin invaded the Aworis on Lagos island.

3. Ogun popular called Egun in Yoruba:

This set of people speak different language. Some of them are Yorubas. They own some parts of Badagry.

4. Egbas:

They are originally from Abeokuta. They own some parts of Agege and Ifako-ijaiye.

5. Slave returnees:

When slave trade was abolished. Some slaves that were returned settled in Lagos and become part of the indigene.

Also note:

The reason you may find it difficult to see Lagos indigene in commercial areas is because when Lagos was Federal Capital Territory, many indigenes were displaced because of government aquisition of land. For instance, the Murtala Muhammed international airport was built on land occupied by a whole village called Ewu. These villagers were relocated to pave way for the airport

Most people living in surulere were evicted from Lagos island

FreeStuffsNG:
Awesome!! You mean Ogu for the Egun people sir.
Thank you sir

A vote for APC in the Lagos Guber election, is a vote for Lagos state to remain in Tinubu's pocket.

A vote for LP in the Lagos Guber election is a vote to dismantle Tinubu's Lagos criminal organization whose aim is to perpetually rob the wealth of Lagos state.

princemillla:
If you claim bini owns Lagos. Then I give u this assignment why is the paramount ruler of bini Oba of bini referred to as “OBA”? which is a Yoruba language


Bini never own Lagos. To own a community back then is by survival of the fittest more of what Fulanis were doing back them. Come to ur Land conquer you and take over.

According to history trade was already going on in Lagos before the bini invasion in Lagos.



It shall never be well for those who took history from our academic curriculum

rummmy:
the governor of Delta State bears ifeanyi,former governor of Rivers State bears rotimi amechi but that does not mean they are Igbo or Yoruba respectively..
There is obi of agbor,obi is an Igbo word but agbor is not an Igbo town according to the Nigeria history.

ElSudani:
The owner of Lagos is any omoluabi from anywhere in the world, from Benin Republic to Brazil. No Chinedu is included.
