The Third Mainland Bridge - Lagos, Nigeria

 

LAGOS
city and chief port, Lagos state, Nigeria. Until 1975 it was the capital of Lagos state, and until December 1991 it was the federal capital of Nigeria . Ikeja replaced Lagos as the state capital, and Abuja replaced Lagos as the federal capital. Lagos , however, remained the unofficial seat of many government agencies. The city's population is centred on Lagos Island , in Lagos Lagoon, on the Bight of Benin in the Gulf of Guinea . Lagos is Nigeria 's largest city and one of the largest in sub-Saharan Africa .

By the late 15th century Lagos Island had been settled by Yoruba fishermen and hunters, who called it Oko. The area was dominated by the kingdom of Benin , which called it Eko, from the late 16th century to the mid-19th century. The Portuguese first landed on Lagos Island in 1472; trade developed slowly, however, until the Portuguese were granted a slaving monopoly a century later. The local obas (kings) enjoyed good relations with the Portuguese, who called the island Onim (and, later, Lagos ) and who established a flourishing slave trade. British attempts to suppress the slave trade culminated in 1851 in a naval attack on Lagos and the deposition of the oba. The slave trade continued to grow, however, until Lagos came under British control in 1861.
