In 1921, Chief Amodu Tijani, the Oluwa of Lagos, bravely took Britain to court for unlawfully seizing his land. Despite the odds, he won the case and was awarded £22,500, a significant victory that highlighted the resilience and determination of individuals in the face of colonial oppression. This historic legal triumph stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of justice and empowerment, inspiring future generations to stand up against injustice and champion the cause of equity and fairness.
