Lagos is overpopulated.

But those who want to mock Lagos should have a rethink... because your own land is probably not any better in terms of physical infrastructure and investments.

This is one of the reasons why the coastal highway is a waste of scarce resources.

The investment should have been in developing the existing seaports to make them more attractive and commercially viable.

This would help reduce the pressure on Lagos ports, reduce the population of people, reduce businesses located in lagos strictly because of the port business and spread wealth as other cities would be able to develop better.
I am from Togo you need to visit my country and see the huge difference between your cities and ours.

Don’t fall for western propaganda and hatred for African.

Some Caucasians still believe we Africans still live on trees and in caves.

It’s so barbaric that a white guys asked me how we’re still survive living with lions and wild animals on our streets.
I visited Canada and understood why they believe Africa is living on hunger and starvation.

See, Lagos is hell.

If you weren't born and bred in Lagos, you'll find it difficult to cope.

You know them once you see them, they are always in a hurry, from rushing busses to many things. A few years ago whole in Benin standing at the b/stop and the bus came for us to board it lo and behold a woman rushed the bus and everyone was staring at her and I walked up to her to ask, are you from Lagos and she said yes, I just laughed

Lagos is crime riddled. Within a year, I lost two phones to thieves. Lived in Abuja for 7 years, never lost a penny. Kano for about 15 years, never lost a penny and few cities overseas, never lost a penny.
I was inside a moving vehicle at Oshodi making call and my phone was snatched from me while on a call.

If you're being economical with the truth, you'll not ask a Yoruba man to leave Yoruba Land. A land built by our ancestors. Do you know that everything northwards from Jibowu was part of western region? If you do not know Jibowu, it means Mushin, Oshodi, fadeyi, Palm Grove up to ikorodu and Epe are part of western region. I guess, in your opinion, western region belongs to the Hausa or Igbo.

In every sensible man's opinion, western region belongs to the Yorubas.

Mister man, wr know what are saying.
so osun people left Oshogbo and went to build Lagos ?

Reno Omokri released a fake list that added Lagos among top twenty. I had to factcheck him. He even promised 10k if he's wrong. As if em go pay.

Hatred beclouds reasoning. Reno Omokri is running a false campaign against southeast because of his hatred for Peter Obi.


RENO named his source which is a reputable one but you go round to pick another source, though equally reputable, to call him out. OB1DENSE and senselessness seems inseparable.

MasterJayJay:

Na gullible people like you Reno dey use their brain to drink garri.

Time magazine is not same as Timeout.


YOU guys are pathetic and damn ignorant. The way you promote propaganda and lies with reckless impunity is astounding. Time is a New York publication that started out in 1923 while Time Out is a London publication that first hit the stand in 1968 and merely expanded to New York and other few other cities decades later.
You guys have comprehension challenge that's why you always claim you win what you don't. And that's always why RENO usually ignore you when you claim to have won his wager because you chose a selected but different point to represent and counter his fact. It's pathetic

I can't live in that over populated slum where people wake by 4am and go to bed by 11:30/12:00 bcs of traffic.

Lol. Nigeria's greatest city that Tinubu built starting in 1999 is ranked as a shithole. Lol. So what then about the other jungles that people run from to go and crowd Lagos? Worse?

Una neva know anything. Sit under your palm tree and beat your chest that you're the greatest country in the whole world. No one will contest it

See, let's be honest.

Lagos is hell on earth. Yes, it's an emerging city because it is viable enough to stand as the economic capital of Nigeria, but life on the Lagos streets is hell. You spend half of your life in traffic. The noise in Lagos can permanently raise your blood pressure and you won't even know it.

There's proven statistics that living in Lagos reduces your lifespan by ten years and it's true. We can argue it however we want for political correctness, but you and I know Lagos is not a healthy environment, bar even the countless societal vices.
All lagosians have small cray cray. Such a noisy and loud place.

If not that Damascus and Tripoli is devastated because of the endless civil war in Libya and Syria, Lagos would have carry last.

So, no American cities made top 10. America is so overrated.

But most times you guys use propaganda and claim Lagos to be a megacity ?

You trash talk places like my Benin city and call other states slums.

Lagos is not an emerging city according to you people it is a mega city , so you can't use propaganda to wriggle out of this one.

Benin city wasn’t even on the list. They don’t know that place exist 😂😂😂

FreedomArmy:
so osun people left Oshogbo and went to build Lagos ?

The problem is your ignorance and inability to learn. HRM Oba Musendiku Adeniji Adele (1949 - 1964) came from a line of Obas with Ijesa blood (is ilesa not from Osun state?). A lot of Obas will still be produced by the same line, by the grace of God.

Elegushi, Onikoyi and 80% of the other monarchs are directly from Ilè ife in osun state

Do I need to say more?

Your problem is lack of understanding of how interwoven Yoruba Race is. Almost 95% of SW Obas got their crowns from either ilè Ife or Oyo.

As we are defending Lagos, if the need arises, we will defend Ibadan, Ijebu ode, Ondo town etc.

Reno is nothing but a rabid, ill-neutered dog who continually suffers from bouts of preoccupation with Peter Obi. He has no peace on a daily basis and can't seem to meet up with the demands of his new masters who feels he isn't doing enough to downplay PO.

You went to far mentioning Western countries. Ordinary South Africa a town there beat some major cities in Nigeria. If you haven't travelled outside Nigeria you wouldn't understand.
