The difference is clear in terms of orderliness. What is responsible for the obstreperous nature of Lagos today? I don't want any excuses. 46 Likes 6 Shares

Ibos destroyed the orderliness of lagos by hawking gala between the cars, putting okrikas by the roadside and building quack container shops on every available space. Oripelebe jumping in my mention. They know I'm right. 38 Likes 3 Shares |

Sakamaje:The truth is his agenda. The main cause of traffic in Lagos are the Okadas , Danfos and Moliue. They don't adhere to traffic regulations for anything. . Go to Ojuelegba , Oshodi and every hub. U will see how these dnafos park on a two lane to create one lane. Ikotun is worse. Disregard for laws is the major cause of hold up. I know bad roads is among bur the main cause is what I said above 24 Likes 5 Shares |

⏩⏩Uncontrolled birthrate, rural urban migration, poor planning & corruption. Furthermore, the arbokis have destroyed their region with fanaticism and crime and all there illiterate youth are all relocating to Lagos to come and ride Okada or keke. They don't add value to the economy of Lagos as they don't pay tax, don't rent house, defecate anywhere, pisz anywhere before prayers, don't go to school. Then to worsen matters, a northern beggar in Lagos will have 3 wives and 14 children who he has no plans to feed or train. Graduates also crowd the city for the elusive jobs. Finally Lagos is limited in size, so the crowding keeps worsening...❌❌❌❌ 6 Likes 1 Share |

Is the population of Lagos in 1960 same as its population today? Secondly with regards to orderliness, there is no orderly traffic in the world. You are taking a snapshot of one segment of traffic on a particular road and juxtaposing it to another segment on a different road with a timeframe gap of almost 60 years! Not a fair comparison. ![]() 15 Likes 1 Share |
