He is trying, but lagos needs to be wrestled from Tinubu next year. Lagos can actually do better than this if not for the kleptomaniac suppressing it's growth for the past 20years.

Make hay now while your sun shines dear lagos, once a good government enters (he will enter next year) and starts off at full operational capacity the ports In south south, river ports in anambra and Imo, river ports in kogi and benue for commercial activities, as well as fight the hidden corrupt policy that ensures friegjt carrying ships berth only in lagos, the companies in lagos will all move closer to their raw materials , while still being able to access their imported materials at minimal logistical costs ( nobody wants to locate in onitsha and frieght imported goods from lagos on bad roads, thus they rush to ogun, since lagos no get vacant land).

Once that happens, the so called igbos ans minorities you have been surviving on their tax and economic activity , will all leave lagos voluntarily. Nobody likes to live in lagos, we all hustle in lagos due to the high population of everyone and every tribe, however some yoruba who havent travelled to benin before, think it is because our regions are poor. Many will move away back home and help develop other regions aforementioned.

This will be good for lagos as it will reduce the population and increase the quality of life from what it is, but your IGR will drop drastically and all the huge figures you used to enjoy will now be directed to other states and regions with similar coastal profile and capacity. Mind you that will be good for Nigeria as a whole and particularly for igbos.

We are everywhere in Nigeria and the growth and development of all Nigeria will benefit the igbos wherever we call home.

They will tell you it doesn’t matter. They will tell you it’s because there is a seaport in Lagos. They will tell you it’s because there is an airport in Lagos. They will tell you it’s because Lagos was once federal capital and FG is paying for everything.

They hate all good news coming from the SW. They live in the SW to escape the poverty and underdevelopment of their region and still pray for the downfall of SW. They are Igbos, they are obituarists, they are haters!

Congratulations to Sanwo-Olu and his team. He should keep up the good work. Lagos must keep working. Eko Onibaje.

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.

Lagos, the commercial hub of Nigeria, has been ranking as one of the worst places to live in the world for the nine straight years, a BusinessDay analysis shows.

Data from the 2019 Global Liveability Index published by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU), the world’s leader in global business intelligence, shows the city has been within the range of 137th-139th position out of a total of 140 cities in the world from year 2011-2019.

Potable water still luxury 23 years after return of democracy

WHILE the Federal Government continues to proliferate the country with dams, it is such an irony that a state like Lagos, with its massive, constant boast of being a megacity, cannot provide its residents, thereby forcing the bulk of them to take solace in the arms of water boreholes.

At regular intervals, the two major waterworks in the state, the Adiyan, and Iju get grounded leading to the non-availability of water. In April and May last year, for instance, they both produce less than 10% of their installed capacity.

As of today, Eti-Osa, Apapa, Victoria Island, Badagry, Ibeju Lekki, Surulere, Ikorodu, Agege, Ojo, Mushin Kosofe, and most locations in the state are without access to clean water. Consequently, millions of residents now rely on boreholes, rivers, rainwater, as well as comprised wells for their water needs.

On its website, the LWC claims that it has a total installed water production capacity of 210 million gallons per day (MGD), which is far lower than the current estimated daily water demand of 540 million gallons per day.

Also, its plan to produce 745 million gallons per day by the year 2020 through the Lagos Water Supply Master Plan fell flat with the actual number of citizens having access to potable water dropping, rather than increasing 11 years after the launch of the master plan.

A senior staff of LWC, who preferred anonymity said that at present, its agency only supplies water to Lekki, parts of Ikoyi, Victoria Island (VI), Ojodu, Iju, and some parts of Ikotun.

We've all seen the 2012 thread where Igbos unanimously described Peter Obi as a monumental failure.

Honestly, you people are terrible people. I'm certain you will never consider Obi to lead you if you were given biafra. But you want him to lead Nigeria.
Indeed, you people have no good mind for this country.. What seems confusing 2 me is that u people automatically name anyone supporting obi as an igbo.


Come back when you're done.

Low key, SW has become IDP camp for one particular hateful and bitter tribe like that.

Celebrating 38 flats! We are doomed in this country. Even @Spider888 can achieve these feat in a short time.

With that huge revenue from Lagos and acute shortage of housing there not even remembering those living in slums, the state should be doing at least 1000 flats per anum.

Laatstly, can one with a salary of 150k afford to live there?
