Sorry, you have not made much sense.
What is your socalled 'Agbole?'
Who defines your socalled 'Agbole?'

It is not meant for you to understand. It is our culture we know and understand it, and thats enough. But for anyone to identify as Lagos indigene, the Agbole is a essential part of his history.

You tell me and provide evidence.
The fact you think that you can just guess people's past with accuracy blows my mind.
You guys basically believe that you can perform the work of archeologists and historians without the doctorate degree, nor the tools, nor the sponsorship nor the necessary years to study the topic.
I guess egyptologist should come and learn from you.

When people are as uneducated as you guys and still think they belong in a discussion with adults, it gets really painful to watch.


You are the one who claimed that the Aworis probably came from lagos but you don't know where exactly In lagos?

As a very educated individual, I expect you to do your own research and then tell me your findings, as its obvious you have no clue about the Aworis or where they came from.

Who did Peter Obi consider to be Anambra Indigenes when he was Governor?

Remember that non indigenes Resident of over decades in Anambra were pursued out of Anambra by him

He went after those who were from other Regions of Nigeria first

Stop panicking the proposes law of Lagos will speak it to you people. Obasa should input it in the law that there should not be changing of male Igbos name to Yoruba in Lagos . But every Igbo Female can Mary Yorubas to claim man's land . You never see anything you are jumping up and down.

Protecting indigenes does not mean you antagonize non indigenes
Most states issue a certificate of origin used for things like scholarship,bursary and employment
This is very common in Northern Nigeria and some Southern states

Just take a look at the list of all Chairmen of the Local Governments and LCDAs in Lagos, members of the Lagos state house of Assembly, Commisioners and Special Advisers and top government functionaries apart from the governor who I see as merely ceremonial.
Muslims are in the majority.

1) Yoruba is not a people, it is the former name of oyo kingdom.
2) your ancestors adopted that name because they were deported slaves from the American continent or European continent.

After many sessions of educative lectures in Nairaland cautioning you Ibos to dissociate from tying names to religious beliefs you still have not learnt.

If we were using names to determine religious faith Raji Fashola would be an Ifa worshipper, not muslim. Tunde Bakare would be a muslim, not christian. Aremu Williams should be a christian, not muslim.

When will you learn?

You keep on mixing things up. The thread is on who are indigenous Lagosians, not that of Yorubaland.
Are you implying that there are no indigenous people of Ogun, Oyo, Ekiti, Kwara, Ondo and Osun states?

So, why guess? Just say you don't know. It won't take anything from your person.

Oh well, fye, Aworis didn't just popped up in lagos from nowhere, rather they migrated from ile-ife.

Awori in yoruba means; where the bowl sank (in the river).

Provide evidence, I'm tired of talking to you yoruba, you just keep making unsubstantiated claims.
You guys are mostly just fanatics parading your beliefs as knowledge.
The fact I don't know doesn't imply that I will just accept your unsubstantiated claim. I'm not as dumb as that. And if you thought I had not heard someone make this your claim many many times, you are only kidding yourself. It is well known that you guys just claim everybody migrated from Ife. The oni of Ife even tried to claim Igbo migrated from Ife.
The fact is that all these claims of migration are unsubstantiated and Ife is not even as old as Lagos by the way, so if awori migrated from Ife then they are definitely not indigenous to Lagos.
But again, your claims of migration are always without proof, just mouth...like you saw the said migration, you are 200 years old, right ?

There is no etymology to west African languages so you can basically assign meaning to any word and claim it is part of your language.

Why? Here in Yorubaland we are not burdened by religious difference.

Religious difference is headache for Ibo. You go ahead and resolve that issue on your own. We Yorubas have better things to do.
