Lagos indigenous group faults APC chieftains on Aworis history vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
The Aworis in Lagos, under the aegis of the Ibile-Eko Forum have debunked the insinuations that Lagos is a no man’s land and that Aworis are known indigenes.
The group further warned individuals and groups to desist on the deliberate acts of misleading the general populace and distortion of history. “Of what importance is the attempt by Prince Olusi to twist the history of Akesan when he claimed the Late King of Akesan land, Oba Fagbohun said there is Akesan in Oyo and with that Olusi concluded Akesan is not Awori. While time and space may not permit me now to ponder on the full historical development of the Awori land and its people, laziness has not permitted you to find out the connection of the said Akesan in Oyo and the Akesan in Lagos state.
