I guess the Oba of Lagos is delusional as well

He never said Benin owned Lagos in that video, he said the Eleko line descended from the Benin royalty which is true. Just as the Benin royalty descended from that of Ile ife.

He never said Benin Owned or found Lagos. He already consistently gave the rebuttal many times.

His maternal line is from Benin like the Oba claimed. It is not today that Yoruba kings marry female from other tribe, even Sango did it.

If Benin claimed they found lagos because they came to Lagos with Itsekiri people and Lagos people they met there gave them welcoming arm to set up their camp, it will only take a lunatic to translate that as Benin found Lagos.

Itsekiri people also went to Epe, do we now say Itsekiri found Epe?

igwebuike01:
You miscreants from Osogbo and Kwara will be dealt with at the appropriate time

I don't have time for Ibo people now, let us first deal with the lunatic Ogiso of Benin first.

I will have time for you Ojuku people later.

Donaldoni:
The crown crossed to the Ijesha high priest lineage as the 3rd king - Gabaro could not bear a child. His sister then married the Ijesha high priest to create the current line of Lagos monarchs.

This chart is in the palace of the Oba of Lagos.

Thanks for the clarification.

Oba of Benin self go don tire.

He would be dragged just as other obas have been dragged in the past.

Lol.
Jakande = Lagos is no man's land
Oba of Lagos = Lagos is not yorubaland
Kwara miscreant = we own Lagos, Igbos wants to take our land

Benin dominated Lagos for nearly 300 years. That is longer than the period of Fulani dominion over Ilorin and you're still insisting that 3 centuries of political dominion was not enough to make Lagos a colony of Benin before the British took over from King Akintoye in the mid 19th century?

1. When Jakande (Kwara man) used the term no-man's-land in 1979. He was talking about the time when in 1954 the British carved out Lagos island as a Federal territory. A Federal territory that wasn't governed by any of Nigeria's tribes.

Lagos island was under the Federal Government but ikeja, surulere and other parts that form Lagos State today were under the western region by 1958. Lagos island today is now under Lagos State.

2. Oba of Lagos never said such. Fake news which has been debunked on this thread.

And who dominated it before the arrival of the Benin whose Royalty descended from Ile ife? Prince Ogunrumimire from Ife was also in the current location we call Lagos before the Benin set up a camp. Ijebus were in the current location called Lagos before the Benin set up camp. It even states it there in your screenshot.

Descendants of Ogunrumimire, the Egun, and the Ijebus also dominates Lagos till date..

Ikeja and surulere are shyte hole yoruba slum. Jakande the Kwara man was telling you his fellow Kwara man to buckle up and work hard because nothing will be handed over to you on a platter. He latter sold the land for building alaba market to Igbos

Igbos didn't call Lagos no-man's-land as you miscreants scream during election
Hear from Oba of Lagos

LegendHero:
This Oba is obviously smoking Canadian loud.

I have never seen intellectual dishonesty like this before. When he saw that “Benin Found Lagos” he spit was all jargons, he try to do damage control by saying “Maybe some part of Lagos”.

He can authoritatively say Benin found Lagos, but he had to put “Maybe” some part of Lagos later.

Before they started using ruler to share the country, do you understand that if you migrate from a Yoruba state and settle in a place where no one has settled. Then you start to expand, do you know you're the founder of that place.

the name EKO was given to the region now known as lagos by people from the oyo empire. It means port or koast or something...

All of them migrated there. Non can claim ancestral indegenous people. However, Benin migrants set up the government.

God bless you bro. I really missed Ajimobi.

LegendHero:
Did the Oba of Benin also know that Ile Ibinu crown is of Yoruba origin? Na Yoruba own Benin.

If we go and take back the crown now to Yorubaland they will start screaming.

God bless Ajimobi. That man will give it back to him on the spot, Sanwoolu na gentle man.

You are talking about mythology and I am talking about verifiable history.
Right from the beginning, from the earliest of recorded history, Benin has always dominated Eko politically and they would have continued to do so till this date were it not for the British taking over and forcing Oba Akintoye to sign a treaty which made Lagos a British Colony.
Up till that point in Lagos history, all the Obas of Lagos from the first Oba of Lagos Ologun Kutere were buried in Benin. It was only after the British freed Lagos from their Benin masters that Lagos Obas began to be buried in Lagos itself.

Omo this man expose over hyped betrayal cowards honestly... see as all yorubas are beating their chest for no reason... this life self... Lagos wey igbos built. Lol 😆 🤣 😂 😹.

LegendHero:
Benin as a kingdom was founded by the Yorubas.

It is Benin as a settlement that belongs to Edo people.

Is this my English hard for you to understand or bigotry don affect your brain?

Is like Yorubas got Lagos the same fulanis got kwara

2elliot:
But una celebrate when Binis claimed the Ikwere people.

Yorubas are just overhyped clowns honestly

LegendHero:
Person wey Sanwo Olu suppose knack for head.

You and your wishful delusions, all these shitty epistles you created will only end in NL trash and won't amount to something.

Why not go to Benin and say this? Abi Oba of Benin dey for NL?

Rantings from a tribe full of hereditary coward's.

opamoses1:

You Yorubas are just plain stupid, most of you.

Oba dragged? Based on he uses SM himself? Huh?

Why are you miscreants this dull?

Historically, he's 100% right, though there were also Awori and Badagary people in the area, but idk when they arrived.

History revisionists.

Eko is derived from the word Oko meaning farm.
Ereko = Farm district 😂

The Yoruba ‘Ìdú’ is a contraction of the Yoruba term ‘Ìdúó’ or ‘Ìdúró’.

Ìdúó (‘standing-posture’, etc.) also refers to place, viz. a ‘station’.

As such, ‘Ìdú-[ì]gànràn’ means ‘the pepper* settlement’.

And there are other places with the same prefix within Yorubaland like:

Idu-Jimoti in Oyo state, Idu-Soko in Osun state, among others.
——
* ìgànràn=pepper•

Whereas in Benin language, idu means a dove.

Ofodirinwa:

You can't find a place where there are already settlers.

They arrived way longer before the Benin set up a camp and later returned to benin.

No one takes Afonjàs serious

Yorubas dragged bigger obas like the Ooni and Alaafin, who is the Oba of Benin. Just one man that wears iro upandan. Mtchew.

Ironically, the Oba of Benin prays for The Ooni and the Alaafin and other Yoruba Obas as recorded by a colonial master.

Lol, Why won't you miscreants drag your pedophile Ooni?

No one takes that fool serious,

The Oba of Benin is greater than every rodent from your tribe, I mean everyone.
