Reference:


Have you watched the movie, 'Gangs of Newyork' by Martin Scorsese, based on loosely held historical facts but nonetheless represented what early modern American society was.

Clan warfare for dominance turned into gangland. Like Newyork'which was the harbour and gateway for migrants from Europe so are all these gangs in Lagos today, all of them non indegenous Lagosians fighting for territory and power in ungoverned spaces.

In decades to come and in a few generations 'Lagosians' will look back and wonder with regret how these shameful things become part of their subculture.

I may have generalized here. The issue of out of wedlock children is now very common. An entire lineage filled with touts. I grew up among one such agbole.

I hope the issue is taken serious. I hope the situation is not same elsewhere, I am only speaking where I live.

I grew up in an "agbole" filled with an entire lineage of hemp sellers and touts. Singl

Hmmm,Ajagbe Bomboy.......rip man ! Oshodi of the 90s was not for the fainthearted ! At a point I had to relocate to Baruwa in Ijeshatedo to cool off when the "war" in Oshodi was consuming almost everybody ! Hmmm,oh my,you see that Talo guy;he is a born thug;a short man devil ! Even as strong and rugged Bombay was,he secretly feared Talo. Those who were familiar with the set up then would confirm this to be a fact.

Oshodi of that era was quite violent and at the same time very interesting. It was always an endless day of many violent season films. Oro Bayo's death was exceptionally painful 'cause the dude could be extremely nice,just and polite most times ! And even Bombay too;he bailed out so many guys that I personally know. Abi no be so Samodu,if you're here ? MC Oluomo, apart from being rumoured to be very vast in mystical powers,most people don't know that he is a very good and dogged street fighter! I however think Oluomo was able to tame Talo as a result of Hamburgers death. It was a totally emotional wreck for Talo and I think he couldn't get over the shock on time. Hmmm,Talo,the devil himself,man feared nobody perhaps,except God ! I never knew he could accept to serve under the authority Oluomo!

Bomboy desperately attempted to hide his Igbo origin hence the Yoruba name "Ajagbe"he adopted ! He knew the game was over for him when some of his loyalties started questioning his ethnicity. As at that time,only few people knew that Bomboy was Igbo;most people did not know. He subsequently relocated to Ijegun where he eventually died from the injury he sustained during one of his many fracas. He subsequently relocated to Ijegun with his family where he eventually died from the injury he sustained from one of his many fracas.

MrMeth:

He sustained a bottle cut to his leg during one of the fights. The wound escalated to the point he lost his life as a result.

obstead200:
I can't really remember since I hardly visit home. But I knew he was recently very sick..... kidney problems I think. Dunno if he made it

BrotherJesu:
This account is VERY ACCURATE, as a young boy growing up in makinde street, mafoluku, oshodi. The 36 kininun boys where my roll model, my mum use beaten correct my head.
The Suwe suwe in the story lived on Joseph street, his base was at ogun oloko junction.

He was killed, hit with a pestle on his head when he went to a Cele church program, rumours have it that those involved in his killing are his close Allies because he was called from the church vigil on his cell phone. Been who he is he wouldn't just go meet a random person....

plantainbender:

Days of fighting for control. Lion junction is in Oshodi road while 36 Kiniun is in Brown street.

sonnie10:


When Bomboy left Oshodi he did so because had out grown Oshodi and not because the game was over for him. After the elections , the union grabbed that opportunity of the administration’s support to reorganize. Executives were formed and he was promoted to National treasurer. If you understand how they make money, the new position was responsible to keep all Lagos chapter’s money. Something much more than the “peanut” from Oshodi. It was easy money because he no longer had to go out there. Returns were made daily. He was swimming in money before he died.

anthonyuncle:
am i the only one that was born and bred in lagos that is hearing some of these names for the first time?

obstead200:


I know bomboy. He is from my village. Infact, his house is opposite my father's house.

After his death, his brothers relocated to the village and introduced thuggery to my village. They control junctions, extort money from motorists, extort money from property developers and grab people's land at will.

Make dem no worry. Their cup go soon full

obontami:


Bomboy's brother: Austin, also died mysteriously.

irunoko:
you're lucky.you should thank God for your mom.by now you Will have been running after buses in mile 2 with sticks, hanging on buses shouting owomida

Those guys operate like cultists and live a VERY dirty miserable and violent lives.those who cannot afford to send their kids abroad like mc oluomo get killed and they are quick to betray themselves.they readily sell themselves out when the chips are down.theres nothing like loyalty in their dictionary.they can go to each other's owanmbe, dance together,spray money and the next day they've sold you out.

The ones doing thuggery in our area are older and full of regrets unfortunately there's nobody to help them because they've destroyed too many things and lives.all they do is walk around in rags.their juju has failed and destroyed them

Helkayklassic:
Reading all these and thanking God for life. Being born and raised in Oshodi then was not easy.

I can relate well to all these story the things that are wrong there is that 36 kiniun is different from Lion.

36 kiniun is in brown street. Led by Talo skibo while Lion is in Oshodi Road led by MC Oluomo.

Also, Talo skibo didn't have a short spell, man stayed long as the head of 36 kiniun and did all sort of bad things then. It was some people that poked Nayam that while will he be slaving for Talo knowing fully well he is not an Oshodi boy, he came from Mushin. That was where the problem started and Nayam was also aiming to be the boss of 36 kiniun..

Ajagbe Bomboy. Man named himself Ajagbe when the news of him being an igbo guy started trending. He was notorious too. His brother Austin tried to take over after his demise but for where them MC no gree.

36 kiniun (Brown street) led by Talo
Lion (Oshodi road) led by MC Oluomo
Diycott (Araromi street) led by Wasiu Trailer.

Ruthless in that order.

It was not fun those days because of unrest but remembering it now, it was so fun to live in Oshodi. We missed schools many days cos of unrest.

There was a day they were fighting and a passerby probably he was going to work. Hide in our house and he was asking who were fighting, my brother told him 36 kiniun and Lion. The man shook his head like what's the difference, knowing fully well kiniun is Lion in Yoruba language. The man sworn that he can never allow his enemy to live in Oshodi.

There is also this guy that head Fire 2 then (Oje) he was killed mysteriously.

Charger the leader of Ecomong wasted his life during the last fight between 36 kiniun and Lion. He survived but he was better being dead. All his body was matcheted.

Story too plenty for Oshodi.

No so most of them dey and their lives.... In penury, and abject poverty, this is the path in life they chose, I no fit ever pity them she men dey hussle, dem dey dia dey form thuggery

sonnie10:

When Bomboy bought the land to build his private house in Ijegun, the area boys at ijegun did not have any idea who he was because he had kept a low profile. When the workers started clearing the place, those boys came as usual to extort him. He refused and instead called his boys from Oshodi to come to the place. They arrived in 5 molue buses full of boys.
That day, nobody in the whole of Ijegun slept at home.
The bala had to call him and after much begging, he was given the title of Alakosi of Ijegun.
That was where he lived with his only daughter and wife until he died.
