afam4eva: The question is; do we have this kind of pictures 10 years ago? I am sure the answer is nah! Let appreciate today improvements and vote in another good candidates to continue improving the rest of area that still lack development. Let’s crucify the corrupt politicians and praise the one that is doing well in the name of the masses. |

gregg2: You're kidding right? Most of the roads in those pictures were renovated by the LASG. Many Lagosians will remember the massive reconstruction of Lagos Island during the 2nd term of Tinubu. The Tinubu square on broad street was commissioned on the same day the roads were commissioned during one of the Fashola raliies of 2007. The Fed. govt. may have built Lagos but have done zilch to assist the govt. in maintaining it. For those of you claiming the development in Lagos is isolated to the Island, I implore you to visit Yaba, Surulere, Ikeja and many parts of Ikorodu. When LASG proposed the garden laws that will make most parts of Lagos wear a new look, many of you were screaming dictatorship, we can't eat our cake and have it you know? 3 Likes |

@OP 1. You wan cause katakata O!. First some people wanted us to believe there is nothing is Lagos, that Lagos is dirty and the roads are all bad. You know NLrs that have been to Lagos on the pages of internet. You want to serve them humble pie a la carte? 2. At this rate you will only "congest" Lagos the more. I bet you many of the NL folks that had been hating Lagos will take a night bus and be here tomorrow @ badbele on page 1, @OP was on the travel section if you checked and not the political section. Must you guys attack Fashola, Tinubu and ACN at every chance? even at the expence of making you look stupid? 2 Likes |

Who let this Igbotic bigot afam4silly loose? Must you comment? No matter how hard you hate, Yorubaland will continue to advance And how can you say the governor and his predecessor has nothing to do with this when a good number of roads on the island and mainland have been rehabilitated in the last 12 years. From Marina, to Adeola Odeku, Ajose Adeogun, Ahmadu Bello, Oregun Road, Itire Road, Adelabu, Adeniran Ogunsanya, Funsho Williams, Bode Thomas, Eric Moore etc. And my list is less than a quarter of all the roads rehabilitated 2 Likes |

afam4eva: 90% of Lagos is not a ghetto. You don't seem to draw a line between sub-urban settlements and gheto. Becuase an area doesn't have skyscrapers doesn't classify it as a ghetto. 1 Like |

Deceptive and selective beauty. Considering that Lagos is one of the most dangerous places to live in. Johannesburg is also very beautiful. |

wow, this is nice but is this the lagos that Rick ross shot his video (can't hold me down), plus all this people that want to build on land reclaimed from sea are really taunting the sea. I pray lagos is not redistributed into the sea with this so called atlantic city. GOd help us all. |

With the growing pace at which the city develops,the time is now to embark on a sustainable power project to meet the surging rate of development. At least lagos should be working on generating nothing less than 10,000mw of electricity in view of future demand which must be the case,and not wait for the federal govt. 2 Likes |

Some parts of Lagos look like heaven on earth. . . While other parts are like slumps, wonder why things should be like this in one of the world's biggest and over populated cities |

geez*:Now that is your problem; you are too retarded and tribalistic. Have you ever wondered why lagos is different from the rest of the SW states? You think lagos would progress if it were a monocultural society? Think again. 1 Like |

Unfortunately,some yoruba idiotts think the SW is self-sufficient. Let the yoruba ethnic jingoists, power lagos by themselves. |

shymexx:I'm not arguing that the foreign media are fair in their reportage of Africa. I'm just saying that most times they show what typically depicts the topic of discourse. Now, about the links...the first link was about pidgin English and you and i can agree that if they're going to show a picture that remotely depicts that, it should be a picture from the ghettos because that's where pidgin English is most spoke. You don't expect them to show a pic of the white collar buildings of broad street because people don't speak pidgin English in those builders. English is the main stay in those places. As for the second picture, since they're talking about shopping, they had to represent that with where shopping takes place which is a market. I know you're expecting them to put up a picture of shoprite or the GAME. How can they put it up when majority of Nigeria don't shop in those places. Majority of Nigerians shop in those rundown markets like was represented in that second pic. Though we can start branding ourselves and tell the whole world how we want to be seen. The media is a very powerful tol and if we can get an international media house in the mould of Al Jazeera or CCTV, then we're god to go. |

gidiMonsta:By Ghetto i mean the standard of living in those places. That places like Ogba are not called ghettos doesn't mean they aren't. The places that are called ghettos in Nigeria are supposed to be Nicknamed "Hell fire". |
