Founded about 350 years ago by the Ogunsemo and Ojupon families, Ajah is one of the fastest-growing areas in Lagos. It used to be barely grassland with trees and water until Chevron came to the area and major development began. 

It is said that Ajah has been inhabited for centuries, dating back to the arrival of the Portuguese and the beginning of the slave trade in 1704, when Lagos was transformed from a fishing village to a city. In the past, the residents of Ajah were fishermen and hunters. 

Ajah is located on the eastern side of Lagos, within the Lekki, Eti-Osa LGA, with VGC to its left and Epe to its right.
