omonnakoda: God bless you my brother. They have been parroting for ages that they built Lagos with their oil money and one would but wonder why they all forget to build their own region instead of wasting their resources on a far away Lagos. It is evident that Lagos was initially built by the money accrued from the other Yoruba states coupled with the fact that the British saw a prospect in Lagos due to this geography. Hence the FG banked on the glory of Lagos to retain it as the FCT before moving it to Abuja. @the bolded, there are also structures that the British built in USA before the left. A lot more of those structures around the world. Eko baje ti 11 Likes 2 Shares |

LegendHero: No bruh the resources didnt build Lagos it went back into British coffers. But oil money built Third Mainland Bridge. Use cocoa to build port or fourth mainland bridge now make we hear word |

nku5: Did you read the financial statements in the reports? Did you comprehend them? So when Third Mainland was built the port in Lagos was not generating income? There was no revenue accrued from Lagos to Nigeria Lagos has never stopped contributing even today it is a NET contributor 9 Likes |

nku5: Run from who? A you? I don’t waste my time discussing with people like you. We’ve both settled the matter and you already succumbed to a superior argument that Lagos was built with the revenue from the Yorubas. Whether na British, European, Yoruba, or Indians build am is not an issue here. So you mean because the Chinese are constructing the Lagos-Ibadan rail line, it means no Nigerian is part of the workers constructing it? Can you clearly see you are saying rubbish? 4 Likes |

giles14: East had its own export harbour at Brass. This was where exports from East were shipped. Lagos was export point for the Colony and hinterland. In 1898 and 99, there was nothing called Southern Nigeria or regional government. We had the Colony, the hinterland. There was palm oil/palm kernel and rubber in Lagos and as well hinterland. These were not products from East. Remember no rail no road connecting to East. So how would they transport palmoil and kernel from East to go West? Eastern crops and commodities shipped out of Oil Rivers. The "oil" stood for palm oil, not crude oil.....crude was not yet discovered. 5 Likes |

We are hesitant on starting the project.....don't want you to do to Ibadan, Abeokuta, Akure, Ogbomosho, Ekiti, Ilorin, Lokoja, what we witnessed you doing to Lagos. You flooded into a beautiful pristine Lagos and turned into filth and slums. 10 Likes 1 Share |

MetaPhysical: DAWN ni EVENING ko all na political wash for gullible average plebs to use and brag about. It was just a gimmick to intimidate GEJ. Ten years after all the noise how far? Lagos was a cool cosmopolitan city with the aworis, egbas, ijebus, ijaws, Igbos, northerners, Syrians, Lebanese etc The problem is when you guys from the hinterland of neighbouring Yoruba states started flooding the place, creating slums and multiplying like spores in the 1970s during the oil boom |

Interesting.So 'our oyel' money was not the main money used to build Lagos but Lagos money was used to build ' our oyel' Infrastructures that made 'our oyel' chants possible. Really interesting! 4 Likes |
