They should call Umahi to order.. If Igbo properties are encroaching on the coastal roads, then those propeties should be demolished because nobody asked them to acquire lands in mapped out areas in the first instance. He can't be trespassing on other people's lands because he wants to save his Igbo people propeeties that are on the right of way of the coastal highway. That's complete illegality that must not be tolerated.

Yorubas must wake up and stop the destruction of Yoruba properties on Yoruba soil while the Igbo Minister of Works continue to sabotage Government's project to favour his Igbo people. Governor Sanwo Olu should not sit down idle in Alausa and allow Umahi cause Yorubas to revolt in Lagos.
Enough is enough.

Okun Ajah is an important part of Yorubaland Ancient History involving the Kings of Ijebu

It has relationship with Okun Moba In Lagos which was where the first Oba of Ilesha went to fetch the sea Water used to cure Oduduwa's blindness in the 10 th century ( that is why he is called Owa Obokun)

Okun Ajah people share relationships with the Moba people who were the original Aborigines of Lagos before the Awori arrived and assimilated with them

The 5th king of Ijebu gave the first Owa Obokun Ijesha guides to help him after he got lost and Okun Ajah was one of the places they passed through on their way to Okun Moba where the first ijesha king spent 2 months with the Moba People
This was in the 10th century while Oduduwa was king of Ile ife
wait first he went to Okun Ajah which is close to the sea and fetched sea water to cure Oduduwa's blindness. Please how did he transport the sea water all the way to where Oduduwa was? Bro make una stop this fabu and lies all in the name of twisting history.

cheesy

Why dem go wan divert road enter where their plan no dey before?

Its beginning to look like some favoritism is involved. Hes bulldozed heavier properties before now, so Umahi should keep to the initial plan

Why divert road cause of some persons?

Dem get two head?
I heard some people are paying to divert the road alignment from their property...(Unconfirmed reports)

This coastal road is likely going to be destroyed by flooding every year.

It is all well known Ancient Yoruba History from the day’s of Oduduwa when the Ife Princes
We’re dispersing to found their own Kingdoms

That is why the King Of Ilesha’s Title is Owa Obokun

( He who fetched Sea Water)

Because it was the first king of Ilesha that went to fetch the Sea Water at Moba n Lagos
that Oore Otun used to treat Oduduwa’s blindness

Okun Ajah was e of the places he passed through

It is not a Coincidence that even today sea water has minerals used to treat Glucoma
Our Forefathers knew that before Europeans

It was after he returned to Ife with the Sea Water that he founded Ilesa and Ijeshaland and became the first Ijesha king

Inn the full History he lost his way and had to go to the 5th Ijebu King who gave him guides to take him to
Okun Moba near Ikoyi in Lagos

Okun Ajah is one of the places that they passed through
In fact it was at Okun Ajah that the first Ijesha king had previously
lost his way and went back to meet the 5th king of Ijebu who then gave
him the guides that took him to Moba in Lagos this happened in the 10th Century

It is wonderful that when you draw the Route Map from Ile Ife
through Ijebu to Okun Moba , Okun Ajah is along the Way
And this History is 1000 years old!!!!


Calabash , dried sheep and goats Skins and intestines were used
to store water over long distances in Ancient times

Oga stop trying to lie abeg. There is no way they will carry calabash and travel that long distance with sea water. Goat skins and intestines used as bags have small pores so there is no way it is water tight.
Leave all this twisting of history abeg.

Yes you will. You don't wipe out your entire forests just because you want to build a community. If that forest is within the borders of your community, it and that community has been part of it's existence for however long the community has existed.
