Answer 5

Lagos was once a Yoruba settlement of Awori people called Eko, whose name stemmed from either Oko (farm) or Eko (war camp.). The present day Lagos state has a higher percent of this sub-group who actually migrated to the area from Isheri along the Ogun river. Due to war at that time, probably the Ijaiye war, though it could not be said to be this war looking at the time Eko sprung up to the time of the known war. History has it that the Awori were actually from Ife and maybe due to another war ,first down to Ibadan later Isheri. It seems that with this it can be seen that the Awori people are a people initially not taken to warfare. By the time of the earlier mentioned war, those from the hinter lands, like the Ekiti ran towards Isheri which at that time had more than one Olofin (Alafin)who were heads of probably respective settlements about 1400BC . With the fleeing people from the hinterlands most of them scattered again to different places. Some to Iro, to Otta, Ado, others to Ebute Metta i.e three landing places-Oyingbo, Iddo and Lagos Island (Eko). The Olofin that brought those who went to Ebute-Metta was Ogunfunminire later known as Agbodere. With the full commencement of the war about 2000 moved to the nearest island;Iddo, others to Otto Awori or Otto Ijanikin towards Badagry.Those from Ekiti Aramoko came to Ebute-Metta -to Iddo and then Ijora. The Olofin was said to have 32 children. His own known children are Olumegbon, Aromire, Oloto, Oluwa, Oniru, Onisiwo, Onitoolo,and Elegushi. Ojora, Onikoyi and Mogiso were not his biological children. After the demise of Agbodere,the name Olofin became the name used to remember him while a title of Oloto was given to his seccessor. With one of his sons becoming the Oloto his other children parted ways to what is known as visible settlements in the present day Lagos. Aromire is likely to be the first to cross being said to have swam across the river. It is possible that is real name is not Aromire but due to the feat he became known as such. It will take a harder detail to explain where was Lagos (geographic boundary) and Eko. Eko can be said to be the area found by aromire because the other areas that are now been generally referred to as Eko have names and heads which are the brothers of Aromire as earlier mentioned. Lagos also was initially the region called Lagos Island, comprising of the respective Kingdoms. With time Otto was absorbed into that collective name. We can assume that Eko was given to it by its first King Oba Aromire. During its early history, it also saw periods of rule by the Kingdom of Benin. [1] Portuguese explorer Sequeira visited the area in 1472 , naming the area around the city Lagos, meaning lakes. From 1704-1851 it served as a major center of the slave trade. In 1841 Oba Akitoye ascended on to the throne of lagos and tried to bring an end to slave trading by placing a ban on the act. Lagos merchants, most notably Madam Tinubu, resisted the ban and deposed the king (who was deported to Whaday) and installed his brother Oba Kosoko. Oba Akitoye while on exile met with the British who had banned slave trading in 1807, and got their backing to regain his throne. In 1851 he was reinstalled Oba of Lagos.
