About EJINRIN COMMUNITY
Ejinrin is an unknown part of Lagos, Nigeria with huge untapped potential.
An old colonial settlement and coastal community.
Ejinrin is a place endowed with history and huge economic and tourist potential. And yet, it remains largely unknown, untapped and underdeveloped.
Over the decades the coastal community of Ejinrin has maintained its rich history as the community which houses the first ever post office in Nigeria, the second oldest seaport in Nigeria which was constructed by the Europeans who invaded Ejinrin in the 19th Century, the second police station in the country, the first comprehensive college in Lagos state and a host of other historic landmarks. The colonial masters also built the largest market containing over one thousand eight hundred (1,800) stalls, and the market which is presently abandoned was formally known as the trading hub of coca, fabrics, herbs, fish, and other consumables and experts alike.
Ejinrin is void of any form of environmental or industrial pollution like other densely populated areas of Lagos state. Its serenity is a major plus to the establishment of companies and the advancement of the community.
The soothing culture, friendliness, and pleasantries of the people of Ejinrin guarantee the smooth running of activities by visitors and others. The security of lives and property is not a threat in Ejinrin community, given the hospitable and hostility-free nature of the people.
