British and federal government of Nigeria developed Lagos port. Yorubas migrated into Lagos like any other tribe in Nigeria. The British captured Lagos from Bini people and Sand filled most part of it and develop it. The indigenous people in Lagos are Aworis and Egun people and they are not yorubas. 2 Likes |

Maadoo: did Yoruba people force the British and other Nigerians to migrate to Lagos? We were doing just fine before the British came to "stop slave trade". The French also stole our other port and town in Ajase (port Novo, Benin republic). how come it is our lands they are stealing and making capitals? The first capital in the south was Calabar with an access to the ocean, but they moved it to Lagos, why? Ajase has also been the capital of Benin republic, why? Obviously, oil contributed to the development of Lagos, but you people can never erase the earlier work of our fore-fathers, never! They started the work, the whites hijacked it, and Nigerians is enjoying it now! So you owe them some gratitude! Abacha moved the capital to Abuja, so you guys should rejoice because we would (or should have or are) turn it to another Ibadan as you claimed. Mind you Oyo state's gdp is the 4th in the country and the the Ibadan you claim we underdeveloped contributes over 70% to the gdp of Oyo state. 5 Likes |

Lagos colony(SW) was attached like a parasite to Southern Nigeria (SE and SS) in 1906 by Sir Egerton. Same year, the capital of Southern Nigeria was moved from Calabar to Lagos. And same year z resources from SE and SS was used by British to dredge and expand Lagos port, as against Calabar port. Lagos parasitism was instantaneous. It didn't waste time to start milking the entire Southern Nigeria. 4 Likes |

Maadoo: Awori people are Yoruba people not bini aka edo (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Awori_tribe). where do you get this falsehood you spread about? or do you sit somewhere and cook them up. Awori people might lay claim to it because Oyo empire disintegrated. Before the Awori, or Ojebu, or Egun or whatever sub Yoruba tribe started claiming the Lagos, it was the property of Oyo empire aka Yoruba people everyone traded on it. All Yoruba sub groups did everything together like intermarriage, so those you call "Awori" might just be mixed blood of Yoruba sub groups. What is the demography of the total population in 1911 as stated in the picture? and Where did you snap that picture from? 3 Likes |
