Osun slaves go back to your brownroof mud hut in Ogbomosho. Stop calling Lagos a no man's land when we know that lagos is owned by Binis and developed with Niger Delta money as former capital.

I'm in my hometown as I speak.

We know for a fact Onitsha is know mans land it's owned by the Benin hence obi and not eze

I think with your statement here you are already tagging Lagos as Yoruba's land this is wrong Lagos remains a no man's land and hence we all are in this mess together.

It is the kind of talk that makes people hate the Igbos

Stop fooling yourself - Lagos is (and will always be) a Yoruba land. The problem with some of you is that you don't read history.

Go, grab a Biafran war book to learn how the Igbos were massacred in Lagos immediately the war broke out.

I suppose these ignorant ones saying that Lagos is a no man's land today will suffer the same fate if a civil war breaks out.

Go and develop your state because Lagos is a Yoruba land - Nnamdi Kanu, 2015.

Why are you honouring him with such response seems you have forgotten onitsha is no mans lamd

laribari:
don't mind the mumu OP.

The place mostly affected are on the Island and it's due to the fact that the sea is close by. However, the mainland pictures is defintely due to poor drainage which affects all cities in Nigeria.

Here are the top 20 most vulnerable cities:

1. Guangzhou, China

2. Mumbai, India

3. Kolkata, India

4. Guayaquil, Ecuador

5. Shenzen, China

6. Miami, Fla.

7. Tianjin, China

8. New York, N.Y.—Newark, N.J.

9. Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

10. New Orleans, La.

11. Jakarta, Indonesia

12. Abidjan, Ivory Coast

13. Chennai, India

14. Surat, India

15. Zhanjiang, China

16. Tampa—St. Petersburg, Fla.

17. Boston, Mass.

18. Bangkok, Thailand

19. Xiamen, China

20. Nagoya, Japa

Do you even remember that huricane katrina flood wipped out Louisiana of the USA? should we say America is over rated? whether na rain or hurricane, all na water log and flash floods. On the top list, most of the cities that are vulnerable to flooding are cities that are by the sea and that includes LAGOS. so OP use your brain.

people just up with trash.

He will not use it.Na emotion he go use.unless the OP is not deluded faecal-oha eating biafran.

This is time the beautiful greedy hypocrites do remember lagos is not a no man's land.

I tire o! Lagos is the best place in Nigeria and the government is the best as they always get things right and are developing. It's the fastest growing city I know in Nigeria. With the kind of popular we have here, anyone who says Lagos is not trying and the government too is an ingrate.

You have to put in extra effort to keep lagos clean, curb crimes, provide jobs, security etc; as the people here are so many. It's not perfect but still the best and pride of Nigeria. Will you present any other city to the world if they ask you to present a Nigerian city for show? Eko4show

MrMaestro:
Because they suffer from not only floods but erosion. The erosion is a sign of hell trying to reclaim the east and take it back to where it belongs. Can't you see all that deep red dirt in the east?

So from ur assertions, can we say that Mamiwater is trying to reclaim lagos?

OAUTemitayo:
And yet you people refused to go back to your eldorado in potopoto region!
If Lagos is overrated, leave it and go back to your landlocked potopoto na

Pls define landlocked.

Also lagos is not Yoruba land, it's no mans land. Yoruba isn't even the lingua franca of lagos state. The word lagos is not even a Yoruba word...

I don't know whether it is demonic possession or madness maybe down syndrome that affects many brains of those who keeps referring to Yoruba land. I keep asking How? Why? and Where in History can you link Lagos to the Yoruba's is it through the Aworis occupying an outlying part of Lagos Island then but it is crystal clear in history that the Binis can lay claim to be the closest people that owns Lagos and still have their lasting impacts in the emergence and developments of modern Lagos. I can wager that if Nigeria divides today, Lagos will be declared a NO MAN'S LAND. So my friend stop deceiving yourself claim your real Yorubaland of Oyo, Ogun, Osun, Ondo, or Ekiti and leave Lagos alone.

OAUTemitayo:
I wonder.
They so much hate Lagos and yet won't stop trooping in.
Nawao

They hate the prosperity of the Yorubas which Lagos State represents, they resent our economic advancements. Havent you heard them say Lagos ports be shut down and ones not in alaigbo be opened. as if there is any one in a landlocked region. You will also see them gleefully scream Lagos is no man's land and in quick flurry scream Lagos belonged to the binis. I mean what sort of hare brain assertion is that.

I don't take them seriously they are just green with envy and the cancer of envy will metastasis to their bone marrows and brains and eventually kill EM.

The Ijesha Oba of Lagos and his confused history of Lagos
Posted by Dele Awogbeoba
A purported statement from the palace of Oba of Lagos stated that Eko (Lagos Island) is not part of Yoruba land. Part of that statement read:
“Oba Ado fell in-love with a beautiful woman whose father was Awori and mother a daughter to one of the chief, they had two sons and also a daughter Erelu Kuti, who begat Ologun Kutere who later became King.”
What the palace failed to illuminate and tried to obfuscate was the heritage of King Ologun Kutere (the fifth Oba of Lagos). Ologun Kutere was the son of Alaagba (an Ijesha man and babalawo to the Oba of Lagos) and Erelu Kuti (sister to the then Oba of Lagos). Ologun Kutere became king through his matrilineal line and was an Ijehsa man with Bini Heritage.
The only royal family with direct heritage to Bini through the patrilineal line is the Akinsemoyin royal line. That line has been prevented from presenting an Oba since the time of Ologun Kutere. Every Oba of Lagos since Ologun Kutere in 1749 have been direct descendants of Alaagba and are of direct Ijesha heritage. Ologun Kutere was 75% Yoruba because his father was Ijesha and his royal mother (by the account of the palace of the Oba of Lagos) was half Bini and half Yoruba (Awori).
Interesting how the palace at Eko skated over the heritage of their direct paternal ancestor Alaagba. If one were to take a DNA test of the current Eleko of Eko, his Bini heritage will be less than 0% of his DNA. In fact it will not even show up in his Y Chromosome history that is passed down from father to son. All roads from that line will lead one straight to Ilesha.
The Bini , through its then superior army, conquered an Awori outpost in the 15th century and around the time of Ewuare the 1st. Prince Ado was the first Oba of Lagos and his rule started in 1630. Eko was never Bini land just as Nigeria was never English land or Dahomey Yoruba land. There is nowhere in any part of Lagos where Bini language is an indigenous language or ever was an indigenous language and that includes the palace of the Oba of Lagos (or should I say the Eleko of Eko) itself.
For a while now, this current Oba of Lagos has been an uncouth holder of the throne of the Oba of Lagos. His utterances have demeaned Eko and its people. What the Yoruba can however take solace in is the matured response of the Ooni of Ife. It goes to show that true royalty is inbred.

MrMaestro:

I know of Oba of Benin but I have never heard of Oba of Ife but Ooni of Ife, never heard of Oba of Ijebuland but Awujale of Ijwbuland also I have never heard of Oba of Ondo but Osemawe of Ondoland. I know of Oba of Lagos sha now Mr Revisionist since you claim to know more than the current of Oba of Lagos who gave an elaborate history of Lagos linking it to Benin Empire and ancestry kindly educate the house anywhere in Yorubaland where you can lay claim to Obaship as a title as it is being practised in Benin (Oba of Benin),and Lagos (Oba of Lagos).

I just gave you a dose of history you can relate to but being the kind of Homo sapien that you are you went bananas when all you have to do is to educate me how the modern Lagos created and governed by the Binis for years overnight became Yorubaland you better lay claim to your osogbo or Oyo ile you came from and stop claiming a land you know nothing of.
