History Of Awoyaya

Awoyaya has a rich history that dates back to its humble beginnings as a rural community. The area was originally inhabited by the indigenous Yoruba people, who relied on agriculture and fishing for their sustenance. In recent years, Awoyaya has undergone a remarkable transformation, evolving from a tranquil rural area to a vibrant neighborhood. 

This transformation is largely attributed to the spillover effect of the rapid development in neighboring Lekki and Ajah, renowned for their upscale estates and rapidly growing business districts. As land prices and living costs in Lekki and Ajah surged, Awoyaya emerged as an attractive alternative for those seeking affordable housing and investment opportunities.
