See documents on ethnic migration to Lagos. Igbos moved to Lagos before Yoruba. Yorubas came to Lagos in 1931 when igbos and other Nigerians already developed it 3 Likes 1 Share

These Yeebow should be very careful! They are biting more than they can chew! Sanwolu must deport these fools back to their God forsaken region after he won if he really wants the best for Yorùbá land. The guy will lose our support if he fails to do that. Nonsense! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Is it lack of intelligence, intuition or illiteracy? Apparently, some people cannot simple statistics. How can YORUBA be immigrants on their land of origin? How many Hausa in Sokoto or Igbo in Aguleri were immigrants on their own land before 1800? A beg make una use una brain small. Better still if the total non-Yoruba we're 20%, who were the 80%? zurich1010: 3 Likes 1 Share |

Iamgrey5: If you are referring to Ikorodu and Epe, then note that these places were technically not part of Lagos at the time of the statistics. These areas were eventually administered by the government of the Western Region (established in 1952) through the Ikorodu-Epe Joint Administration (Ikeja). Table below shows the breakdown of the population of Lagos in 1930 by location. The map shows Lagos in the 1950s. Source of table and map: https://books.openedition.org/ifra/828 I suggest the OP and others who share his/her opinion read @ the link. A section of it reads: "From the colonial period, the city of Lagos had expanded remarkably as its population increased, particularly with the influx of Yoruba and non-Yoruba (Igbo, Izon, Edo, Hausa etc.) from the late 1930s."

zurich1010: Ipob and stupidity, very synonymous. The document only highlighted the numbers of non Lagos Yorubas immigrating to Lagos. If Yorubas weren't in Lagos before the 60, how come your greedy Zik was crying over Yoruba not voting for him to become premier over the Yorubas. You're insane. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

johnie:Sir What of ibeju? And frankly speaking, Are they not part of Lagos today sir Why then did you claim they migrated to Lagos state? when they ijebus are part and parcel of Lagos today. I know the history and I have seen the Map before |

Iamgrey5: The Ijebus of Ikorodu, Epe and Ibeju migrated from the Ijebu hinterland over time but those areas were not part of Lagos at the time the OP referred to. After the creation of Lagos State in 1967, those places became part of Lagos so the Ijebus indigenous to those places at the time of creation of the state are indigenous Lagosians now. On an interesting side note, I have heard people debate about the earliest nteractions of the Binis with Lagos. Many do not know that the Binis had interacted with the Ijebus of Ikorodu for years before the Europeans arrived. As a matter of fact, the Lisa family in Ikorodu have their roots in the Olisas of Benin. |

Kagawa10: Read this "Soon after, some large contingent of Benin migrants came by land through Iki in Ogun state (where almost the whole land belongs to the Olisa family of Ikorodu) to the area now known as Ikorodu. This group of Benin people was led by a wealthy and powerful man called Eregbouwa (now called Rebugbawa in Ikorodu) from the ancient royal family of Oliha of Benin City. In Benin language, Ere means king and Uwa means peace and prosperity, hence Eregbuwa mean king of peace and prosperity. The Benin people settled down amicably with the children of Akarigbo and the farm started to grow into a large settlement. This was about 1630. The institution of Obaship was conceded to the line of Akarigbo while the institution of Olisaship was conceded to the Benin settlers. In effect the Oba became the reigning monarch while the Olisa became the Kingmaker and the prima minister of the city-state." This is from the horse's mouth as they say: http://www.ikoroduoga.net/index.php/history You do realise that the proximity of Benin to the Ondos, Ile Olujis, Ilajes and even Owos would cause some cultural similarities, don't you? |

johnie: It was cited that the Bini came to dwell among the indigenous people of Ikorodu. So what nonsense are you then spewing? You're only fooling yourself, not me |
