Global city rankings have rated Lagos as one of the mega cities in the world alongside New York City, Beijing, Tokyo, Shanghai, Mumbai, Rio de Janeiro, Johannesburg, plus more. As one of those cities having a population in excess of 17 million people - LASG says it is imperative to provide facilities and infrastructure for the city that will cope with such large demographics and which will be of comparable standard to what is obtainable in all other mega cities in the World, so as to ensure high quality life for the residents of Lagos. In line with these needs and objective, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode has conceived an initiative to provide the city of Lagos with world class residential, business recreational and other facilities that will measure up to what is obtainable in all the mega cities of World. This will position the state as one of the best cities to live and work on the African Continent. Source: http://www.trezzyblog.com/2016/03/global-ranking-of-cities-lagos-state.html 2 Likes 1 Share

Lol! I don't know why everything about Nigeria is always quantity and not quality! What actually makes a megacity? It's not just by population, even the so called Lekki and VI are considered "middle income" in advanced countries, I don't know what people actually celebrate in this slum. ![]() 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Nothing to be proud about as the place is a dump . I think they need to visit the other cities to understand how , despite being in a single metropolis , those other cities feels and look like multiple villages rather than one single metro area . . To put simply , most parts of the derided peckham in london or bushwick in NY , (apart from the high street ) are as quiet as the quietest part of ikoyi but with better infrastructure . 3 Likes 1 Share |

lekkie073: Lagos is the only one in the list were you have some primitive tribal chief claiming ownership whenever it's convenient. Can you imagine Jews claiming NYC as their exclusive inheritance? Threatening to to drown Oklahomans who might vote republican in the next election? You can't be a World rated city while clinging to your primordial instincts of tribalism. 9 Likes 1 Share |
