And the whole of Benin are subjects of Ooni of Ife.

Therefore, what Benin owns, Ooni is the owner. By deduction, nah Ooni get Benin, na Benin get Lagos. This is equals to Ooni owning lagos.

Equation solved.

How can benin be subject of Ife when oduduwa was prince of benin?

So much is lost......and so much more in our history.

Funny is it, that the site purportedly for the LaSG does not know what Eko means, the site knows nothing about that the Aworis and their ethnicity. undecided and the funniest, the site professes a lost/unknown ancestral history of the state, an history that's known even to the whites undecided


Let history be told....The old Benin empire never won nor lost any land that farther west...the Itsekhiris would have been closer to the claim. Binis had and believed in a stronghold and fortified kingdom and a gradual expansion of their kingdom with solid sociopolitical structures ( they would have conquered neighbours like the Ishan, Ekale, Urhobo and Isokos) coupled with the constant fears of loss of sovereignty and internal conflicts( part of which made way for the inclusion of the Yorubas into their history) So much of Yoruba was rubbed into the Benin history and Kingdom that even the title "Oba" reflects till date.
The Binis won't make such funny claims, save for the coveteous lost Israelites.

The Aworis, the Fon, the Ewe....stories for other days.

There is nothing big about lagos only that Ndi igbo is developing most part of lagos in a speed light....lagos is still very poor sha but only the geto areas inhabited by most yorubas due to laziness but soon igbos will buy up that whole area and push the poor people down towards ogun state or ibadan,i think igbos are ready to develop the whole lagos and change some satin things that has to do with people with no business brain causing nuisance and dirtyness..

You people are so full of shyt. Without you Lagos will continue to thrive. Is it industries that you built in Lagos that you are referring to? Or that dirty Alaba international? Na Una build Lagos ikeja mall? The developmental projects of Tinubu, Jakande, Fashola na Una dey behind am? Abi no be common traders and spare parts dealers Una be for Lagos? Abi na Una build Lagos roads and bridges? Which development please? ? Please pray tell the development you brought to Lagos?

You say ikweres are Igbos, maybe they are but how come they HATE being associated with you lot, to the extent that they seized igbo properties and have refused to return them till this day? If ikwerres who are supposedly your kindred can feel justified to do that to you then you all better check yourselves. If you ask me I think you are cursed. Always creating problems wherever you go.

Why okun , egun and akoko hate been called Yoruba

Because. of ur attitude

You are grossly uneducated in this matter.

The Yorubas are subjects to Binis.

Tell us the Yoruba meanings of Oduduwa and Eko...if you disagree.

The Yorubas were subject to Binis ?? And na you dey informed abt this subject matter?? Pls, are you Bini or Yoruba? How old are you. I asked not to demean nor insult you but to know if I can debate/discuss with you.

For the records ... Oba is from ....Eni ti o ba. He who overlords or governs or covers. Its a Yoruba word

Oduduwa..http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oduduwa ....well this link is your friend.

Eko ...basically/originally as Ekoile means a convergent abode

Please respect yourself. Lagos has indegenes, just like any other place in Nigeria. Dont disrespect Lagosians. Thanks.

There is nothing like Oba of Benin. Before the Benin people came, the indigenes were there. When they were kicked out, the indigenes were still there.

Enough of your shameless display of Stu8pidity. There is no where in the world that is a no man's land. Stop the delusion and accept reality so that if future you will not be taken by surprise.
This 'Orue' know history of Lagos at all? please abreast yrself with Google about Lagos before spewing trash.

Yorubas reads the history of Benin written by the yorubas in which they change the truth, our can Benin come from yoruba when the Benin kingdom existed nearly a thousand years before Oduduwa was born? That mot yoruba don't even know.

Aworis Youth Mandate under the able leadership of Adekunle bola has asked that all yoruba of non- aworis extraction leeching on their development and resources should start preparing to vacant the state.

He explained that yorubas come to lagos to feast on their resources, contributing absolutely nothing in return.

"An Ekiti from his jungle village will come to Lagos to drag jobs like security and vigilante with locals, so it time to tell them all who are the real owners of Lagos. "

Once the permission is sanction there will be a exodus, so it is better they start packing before the time reaches. As the say " a stitch in time saves nine."

This is 21st century, NO TIME FOR PARASITISM !

even the Northerners are contributing more than these yorubas, Awori people shall not stand and watch her resources pillaged and ravaged by these ingrates and rascals.

He went on to explain that most crimes in the state are perpetuated by neighboring states especially Ogun people and ijebus.

Dude..page cannot be found...why are you spamming the thread with false information..Even the name Adekunle Bola is dubious..Yoruba's don't bear such combination....Awori's are also from Ife just as other yoruba clans...what does that tell you

And OP, where in your article does the Lagos government says Lagos is no man land....

I dont have all the fact, my CIA fact book is taking ages to load up, but Igbo traders, ijaw fisher men and Awori fishermen have been trading since Before the notation of BC calender counting.
so it is believed that there has always been Igbos in the land called Lagos.
Yes they too migrated, but they have had a continous presence, not as the fishermen but as fish traders, in this land now called Lagos.

Do you realise Ijaws still claim this land now called Lagos èven sone part of ondo?

Don't mind him. Let us even pull up nollywood films as far back as early 90's. *Ragos* is like London. Ewu like Macjive. If not for faster mode of transport, Macjive will be in the east plotting his journey to Lagos.

Ask why always the bitter complaints about the second Niger bridge? Destination is Ragos of course, that is why. Without Ragos, Macjive is finished.
