What I Witnessed In Oshodi Today by Dogasas: 6:52am On Jul 13, 2021 |
I am based in Abuja but come to Lagos State once in a while. Now because of my unfamiliarity with Lagos roads, I decided to use public transport this morning. I was at one of the Oshodi parks when I started hearing "eko" "eko" "eko". I moved closer to the conductor to ask where the bus was going and with a sachet of dry gin in his mouth, he harshly said "Lagos". That wasn't my destination but as I was looking for a bus going to my destination, I kept pondering, no be the same Lagos we dey abi is there another Lagos in Lagos? 218 Likes 12 Shares |

Dogasas:That's Lagos island and it's the real Lagos sef . Obalende , idumota, marina, cms, makoko, Isale eko and many more. That's the real Lagos and where the British first settled before they started expanding to the mainland. Life in Lagos island is far tougher and rougher than what you can ever experience in oshodi and mushin combined. You get to see all kinds of hardened faces whoo look like they're looking for the next person to murder. 589 Likes 27 Shares |

Oshodi where you were is in Lagos State while Lagos Island is Lagos as a City. So places like Mushin, ikorodu, Ikotun etc are all in Lagos State but not part of Lagos city and they all have their distinct traditional rulers. 160 Likes 5 Shares |

Most likely Eko Idumota bound bus. Obalende/CMS buses are always specific about the designation, likewise Lekki-Ajah 20 Likes 2 Shares |

Dogasas:Lagos Island is known as Eko. Lagos was culled from the word Lagoon( the ocean) and Lagoon( also popularity called Omi Òsà in Yoruba) is visibly seen on Lagos Island ( Eko Idumota and environs). Lagos Island was actually where Lagos originated from. 14 Likes |
