That is not true - those Deep sea ports will lead to better efficiency of service delivery and more revenue for the government and more jobs the people.

See let me tell you Ibaka deep sea port will corner shipping coming from Asia via Cape of Good hope. While Badagry will target shipping coming from Europe via Gibraltar. Now Lekki deepsea port is in the middle unless they come up with something spectacular in of cost of clearing and Turn around time. It would be a loss making venture mind you there is still Apapa and Tincan. You don't build project because you want to give people spectacles, Nigeria is broke every kobo must count it is not all projects that are viable economically.

High Chief Tajudeen Dosa Ayipe High Chief Tajudeen Dosa Ayipe, the Wawu of Badagry Kingdom, on Thursday traced the origin of Yoruba speaking people of Badagry to Oduduwa in Ile-Ife.

this agbadorian from iragbiji in osun state, it is a 2019 publication that u are bringing up now. There are no yorubas in Badagry. How does it even concern u, are u a lagosian?

BloomingDale:


I don’t see the great Ife in old maps.

You will see it Ajah or Ikorodu

Why are they silent all this while when false publications of the news where viral on the social media?

History that gets you the more divided as a country. Before anyone start feeling he's from a superior race, he should check his wristwatch to see what time it is.
Chiefs upon Chiefs. Titles upon titles. Africa digs, yet deeper into the mud. A huge history, no applicable lessons learnt.
Bound on repeating errors.

Please take this to the Museum or what ve you. Every right thinking Chief needs Peter Obi right now. So does every sane, healthy Nigerian. Tunde Igboho even needs him. So does OPC.
Anything that magnifies racial potential is the worst thing to put on the table now. I wonder how this found the front page.
Peter Obi is a necessary topic. That's what matters now.

If you have a laptop or a smartphone and the internet and you are still BROKE! It is either you are lazy or lack of knowledge..I can help with the knowledge! Ask me how?

No area or quarters in badagry originates from ile-Ife. There are Yoruba settlers in badagry and they all originates from OYO and IBADAN.
This old man man should quit lying for funds.

The yorubas in badagry migrated from ile ife. You can hear it from his mouth

MyVILLAGEpeople:
These people always tracing their roots. The one in Ijebu even said they came from Sudan. Lol

Do you even understand the meaning of trace? How can a Yoruba man be tracing his root again? You read him saying they’re Yoruba who migrated from Ile-Ife and you’re still mentioning trace..

Don't say what you don't know so you won't sound like a fool

We, Badagry people are from Ile-Ife and settled at Quidah in Benin Republic, later the Ifa oracle directed us to return through Gberefu to our present location in Badagry.

Hmmm. No wonder Yoruba people dominate Quidah, now Ouidah..

Ouidah is a very nice town in Benin republic. It’s where you can go for vacation. It has nice beaches and sea parks. And they give you a nice European treatment..

They have standard hotels that you can booked online before heading to Benin republic.

About Badagry, the indigenous people of Lagos

The coastal town of Badagry, traditionally known as Gbagle, is situated between the city of Lagos, and the border with Benin Republic at Seme. It was cut out of Nigeria in 1863 and eventually added to the state of Lagos as part of Nigeria by the United Kingdom in 1901.

Being the second largest town in Lagos State, Badagry is surrounded by lakes, creeks and island, which makes beaches and resorts one of the major attractions of the ancient town.

1. Badagry is a monarchy headed by the Wheno Aholuship, a king­ship head by the Akran of Badagry and his seven white cap high chiefs. The white cap chiefs ister the eight quarters which Badagry is di­vided into. These divisions are Aho­vikoh, Boekoh, Jegba, Posukoh, Awhanjigo, Asago, Whalako and Ganho.

2. The title of Badagry’s royal father is Oba Akran, a kingship so influential that one of longest commercial avenues (a 2.14kilometere stretch) in Ikeja, Oba Akran Avenue, was named after it.

3. Badagry locals, comprising of the Aworis, Egun, Yoruba and Ogu people, are known for their hospitable disposition and their famous snack, Ajogun, made from cassava, best enjoyed with coconut water sucked from a straw plunged deep into the coconut.

4. Because of its proximity to the ocean, Badagry became the key port for export of African slaves to the Americas. Till date, there is a small museum in the building of the first Christian mission that showcases the manacles and other relics of the hugely lucrative and barbaric trade in humans.

5. Founded in the 15th century, Badagry was said to have been named from a dual corruption of Agbedegreme (which means Agbedeh’s farm in “Ogu” language) to Agbedagari and Agbedagari to Badagry by Yoruba settlers and European slave traders respectively. It is believed that Agbedeh was the famous farmer who founded the town.

6. Badagry served as the auction point for slaves captured during the inter-village warfare. Well, let's know more about this ancient tribe. Although the people belong to the Yoruba tribe of Southwest Nigeria, they speak a distinct language from the main Yoruba spoken in its land.

7. Notable Badagry indigenes

Oba C. Dosa. Akran
Late Oba Claudius Dosa Akran was a Nigerian politician and traditional title holder who represented Badagry in parliament in 1951 and held the title of Aholu Jiwa II of Jegba.

Even with all the misinformation you stated here, you didnt even know that Egun and Ogu are both the same.
So torikoh, Ajara,Topo, Toga, mowo are not part of badagry and doesn't have chiefs in Akrans palace?
I don't blame you, I blame the MOD that pushed this propaganda and misinformation to the FP.

The yorubas in badagry migrated from ile ife. You can hear it from his mouth

From whose mouth? From a poor chief who is speaking for money to gain favor or from indigenes and descendants of badagri founders?

that is the fact. They migrated from ife. When alafin of oyo controlled badagry, some went to ghana and some to benin republic. When oyo collapsed. Others came back

O ma se o. You are really pained.
Egun and Ogu are the same as much as Awori and Ogu are same Yoruba or Egbado and Yewa are the same today for semantics reason. Listing Egun and Ogu side by side does not mean they are different but your pain did not see that nowhere was it stated that they are different.

Even Wawu itself was not included and means that list is inconclusive and does not mean will not change in the future. High Chief Wawu is still alive and an authoritative custodian of the oral tradition and history of Badagry. Emeritus Prof Falola , an authority on history, has done extensive research too and published the works providing the authorities to High Chief Wawu's .

You can go and argue with Ifa if you are pained. The Yoruba Badagry can not be second class Yoruba in their own land because of few ignorant people who want to hold down Badagry like the ehinkule ile Yoruba.

But for this few ignorant people who do not know the place of Badagry in Yorubaland, Badagry should by now be like Eti Osa if not greater.
