The dispute between rival obas of LAGOS ,led to the annexation of LAGOS. Essentially one oba sold out and invited the British

The point was to the fellow threatening to go to his village. The stats remind him of his insignificance in the scheme of things.

LAGOS was ruled by the British as from 1861 which Yoruba ingenuity are you talking about

okpouman:
LAGOS was that way because it was ruled and controlled by the British from 1861

Festac,satellite town,Gowon estate,navy town Ojo, so many other places that were created by the FG which spread development outwards, are they Yoruba creations? The Yoruba has and had equal appropriate contributions to LAGOS as every other ethnicities in Nigeria

National Theater is on Lagos Island
FESTAC city is on Lagos Island
Ojo Military barracks is on Lagos Island
Apapa port is on Lagos island
Tin Can port is on Lagos island

For those of you that said Lagos ports were a point of trade before the colonial masters. I hope you know it was Badagry port that was the point used then. Badagry was the major trade point and the military govt built the other new ports that are used in Lagos as we speak.

It started from Lagos island but was not restricted to Lagos island, Lagos expanded from there.Lagos mainland( surulere,ebutemetta,yaba etc) was also part of the capital,the far flung places like epe,ikorodu agege ( which were the western region) are even till today not mainstream LAGOS

No tribe was mentioned, even the person talking claims to be of some Lukumi tribe. But typically, a chest beater must come out to make empty threats. The South East generates the least revenue in IGR and tax. Here are top businesses in Lagos, not to mention fintechs. But it's a free world.

esnbrutality:
So Lagos Island alone was the administrative capital of NIGERIA right. This administrative capital is situated in where?

So invariably..Abuja as FCT ..is wrong. So Mataima is the administrative Capital of NIGERIA abi?

Chai...chai...Chai!!!!!!..

God go help una.

StUriah:
Have you forgotten that he ascended to the throne by participating in the traditional rituals? The Oba himself must have consumed ritual items in the process & I can say categorically that he was an Ogboni/Osugbo member. Otherwise, he won't become the king.

Now that he was buried according to Islamic rites, the Osugbo will proceed with proper burial according to the tradition of the Ijebu people. Whatever that needed to be taken from him would be taken. The next Oba will also be initiated & fed with souls & flesh of his predecessors.

The Osugbo completed their rites before the announcement of Awujale’s death and will return at midnight for the last step.

Yorubaland has “stagnated” since independence doesn’t quite stack up when you look at today’s numbers. Here’s the reality:

Yorubaland is actually doing quite well

Lagos alone clocks in at a GDP of over \$250 billion in 2025, bigger than around 40 African countries, with nearly 50% growth in just five years under Governor Sanwo‑Olu thanks to PPPs, a booming tech scene, and infrastructure investment .

The Southwest (all six states) contributes \~25% of Nigeria’s total GDP, with a combined regional GDP over \$250 billion .
Per‑capita GDP rankings place Oyo at about \$2,560, Ondo at \~\$6,077, Ogun \~\$5,288, Osun \~\$2,691, firmly in the upper‑middle range nationally .
