This kind of claim will only fuel tribal tensions in Lagos..... Yorubas may be more hostile now. My advice for anyone is not to say this among the Yorubas in Lagos. And I want the Binis reading this to take caution; The Igbos that are supporting you on the thread hate you guys as much as they hate the Yorubas. #Peace out! 2 Likes |

author=odigbosky post=62527183] Dude upgrade your pentium 1 brain if you do not know that Oyo Kingdom is the same as Yoruba kingdom. How will you know that, when your forefathers could not even develop their hamlets into a village not to talk of a town or Kingdom. Mention one town that was developed before the advent of the Oyinbos by your forefathers. Definitely not Onitsha -- Binis or Asaba -- Igalas. All what your forefathers bequeathed to you were mere hamlets. Show how lazy and unadventurous they were. No wonder you lost 3m lives in your first ever war adventure. 2 Likes |

laudate:the town at stake is lagos. Where an authentic lagos indigene has told you that core lagosians are binis. When the issue of onitsha arises on a different thread, we will go there and trash it out. For now, dont be so bitter about the truth. Its better that you have learnt the truth today from a very educated lagosian, and not those illiterate root drinkers that keep lying to you people every night about fake histories that dont exist. 3 Likes |

The Yorubas actually are too crafty and played a key role in trying to wipe off Igbo influence in Rivers State which is the Lagos of the East. The enmity created by the civil war strategy between Igbos and their brother ethnic groups has helped accelerate development of Lagos and underdeveloping of Rivers State. |

TheKingIsHere: There's a problem in this country - it's half education. There is nowhere in the places you cited where mention is made that Èkó is Bini word. Your reference further makes a mockery of your level of education and intelligence. See the bolded below. Lagos was originally inhabited by the Awori subgroup of the Yoruba people in the 15th century.[16][34][35][36] Under the leadership of the Oloye Olofin, the Awori moved to an island now called Iddo and then to the larger Lagos Island.[37][38] In the 16th century, the Awori settlement was conquered by the Benin Empire and the island became a Benin war-camp called "Eko" under Oba Orhogbua, the Oba of Benin at the time.[39][40] Eko is still the native name for Lagos. Other than the fact that the Awori were the original settlers of Èkó (Lagos) which eventually became a Bini war camp, where was it mentioned that Èkó means war camp in Bini? 1 Like |
