Historical Photo: King of Ejayboo with Governor of Lagos, 1920s Colonial Nigeria #3699701 (License: Personal Use)

This early 20th-century photograph captures a ceremonial gathering in colonial Nigeria, featuring the King of Ejayboo seated prominently under a large ceremonial umbrella, adorned in elaborate beaded regalia and a tall white headdress. To his right sits the Governor of Lagos in formal European attire and pith helmet, accompanied by other colonial officers and local dignitaries; a crowd of onlookers, many bare-chested, surrounds them. The setting appears to be an open-air venue near a domed structure, possibly a palace or administrative building, reflecting complex power dynamics of indirect rule.
