The name sounds nice and acceptable to me, my fellow Omoluabi can we please replace Lagos with this name? Badejo State or Gwenga Daniel State?

I will take Y'all serious the day you start collecting back your family compound and lands the Igbos who came with polythene bags to Lagos bought from Y'all. For now, y'all still remain their tenant.

Lagos is ready to keep choking you till you start selling the properties back to them. Soo you'll bow to pressure.

STOP the disinformation you're spewing with confidence young man! A lot of you read too much disinformation from Wikipedia which is susceptible to vandalisms, BUT actual history remains. This is NOT to say that there is no historical links between Benin Kingdom and Yorubaland (Ife, Eko or Lagos Island, etc). Till date, the Yoruba folks call the Island "Eko" in private or public convos and the media reports NOT Lagos. A person can be in Ikeja or Ibeju-Lekki and say to another person in the Yoruba language that he is going to Eko which simply means Lagos Island. In addition, "Ipinle Eko" simply means "Lagos State."

"Eko" is just the shortened form of "Ereko" or pepper farm because the Island was used as a pepper farm centuries back by the descendants of Olofin Ogunfunminire a Prince of Ife who migrated from Ife and was the first to settle on Iddo Island extending to Eko or Lagos Island. The current White Cap Chiefs of Lagos Island are the direct landowners of Lagos Island and the direct descendants of Olofin Ogunfunminire (through his biological sons) an Awori man. The Aworis are spread directly across 17 LGAs out of the 20 LGAs of Lagos State right into Ogun State and are a major subgroup of the Yoruba people whose Yorubaland extends from Nigeria to Benin Republic and the Atakpame region of Togo. The Ijebus ancestrally own 3 LGAs in Lagos State namely Epe, Ikorodu, and Ibeju-Lekki with Ajah also being of Ijebu descent and the Ijebus who are ALSO a major subgroup of the Yoruba folks extend from Lagos State right into Ijebuland in Ogun State from where they were originally carved out from to create Lagos State on May 27, 1967 alongside 11 other new states by General Yakubu Gowon's military regime based on the original recommendations of the Ijaw nationalist leader, Chief Harold Dappa-Biriye from Bonny Island and the Rivers leaders of thought according to a 1998 interview Dappa-Biriye granted to Guardian newspaper.

In conclusion, NOBODY on Eko (Lagos Island) knows it as a Bini word. The word is purely of Yoruba origin and I know this because I have links to Lagos Island through my maternal lineage. Period.

This foresight remains valid:

There is something intrinsically unstable about you. First you are the one giving insight, you are still the one quoting it and ascribing some invisible insight to it. Second can you see how far into delulu land you have gone? Yet you are the one talking about marketplace dancers. This essentially has become a daydream at this point.

Me I know you are just trolling and what you typed is meant to be ragebait.
