Lagos was built by the Yorubas with the hard earned money from exports from their cocoa farms. The airport and the sea port you are using in lagos today was built by Awolowo with money from cocoa. Yorubas never needed oil money to progress. And we still remain the envy of other nations worldwide for a lot of good reasons. O hun a ni lan gbe laruge 19 Likes 5 Shares

Show us pictures of Osun, Ekiti , Ogun and Ondo before the discovery of oil . Lagos is the only state in south east doing well before of it's former status as the federal capital territory and the federal government's support in building the state. Other south west states are nothing to write home about . 42 Likes |
