That's it when military junta's almost turned Lagos into a jungle

You may not appreciate if you are not an indigene or a resident of Lagos state.

When you see uncultured children ranting about Tinubu, just tell them to ask their father or their uncles who lived in Lagos before 1999.

Racoon:
And the same Lagos is the current 4th worst unliveable city in the world?

XAUBulls:
.....With a controlled population, Lagos State will continue to maintain the lead as the 5th largest economy in Africa since 1999 after Bola Tinubu first came on board.

3. The Maroko land improvement Scheme was a project started and completed by Brig-Gen Raji Rasaki and further improved by Military Administrators who took control of the State after his administration.

It was the legendary Alhaji Lateef Jakande who had actually opened up the Lekki peninsula when the first democratic elected governor broke through the forests and the swamps with his road building crew, erecting first class roads from Ozumba Mbadiwe to the fringes of Epe, thereby opening up the Eastern corridor of Lagos State. Gbolahan Mudashiru, the military Administrator who succeeded him, pushed the construction to Epe.

Of course, as the governor of the State from 1999 to 2007, the Administration of Ahmed Bola Tinubu added one lane to the existing two and erected toll gates to generate revenues.

4. The general upgrades that attend the continuous service improvement on the Lekki & Eastern Corridor is a combined effort which had evolved over time and leaders at every stage of their engagement have added value to the Lekki peninsula.Finally, just like all human activities and endeavours, Lagos is a work in progress. It is never an arrival.

Government is a continuum, a progressive work in perpetual motion where all protagonists fulfil their chore and leave the scene for others to continue. That’s the rhythm of life. No one is ever etched in perpetual relevance save the grace of the living God

My friend keep let us hear word. Here is a picture of Lagos before Tinubu came to fill it with agberoes and all manners of vain anti-social elements.

The only legacy Tinubu bequeathed to Lagos is the bogus pension entitlements to fund his ostentatious lifestyles, institutional corruption, personisation of government, institution of multiple strata of anti-social miscreants that have ended making the city a hellhole for it inhabitants.

I was very CLEAR in my earlier submission here.

You are obviously ranting as usual. I've been a veteran member of NL since 2005 and ever since I started noticing your moniker here on NL, it has been one form of narcissism after the other in your posts. Are you incapable of engaging in a rational convo without throwing propaganda, defamation and insults?

You know nothing about that state called Lagos. It was this same President Tinubu that increased the IGR of Lagos to the stellar heights of what it today with subsequent Governors building on the IGR.

Even the man (Dapo Apara) who out of anger had a squabble over the ownership of AlphaBeta has apologized to Tinubu for saying untrue things about him, and even campaigned for him during the run-up leading to the Presidential elections.


I will stop here.

All southeastern cities no even get any ranking/ rating are all. Dem no grade reach to be called cities.

Imagine, they don't have "central business districts", na "central market districts" dem get.

Na villages and towns dem dey call them by global standards.

Hmmmmmm.

Gives me nostalgic feeling. I remember the stress between 98 and 2000 traveling from Ota to Fadeyi through Ijaye, Abule Egba, Abbatoir, Ikeja, Oshodi and then Ilupeju, every day of the work week to get to school at Igbobi College Yaba.

Nonybb:
You guys are stupid and annoying. Everytime Tinubu this Tinubu that. Soon he will be the one that built and developed Abuja. You guys are so shameless. Even Fashola that outperformed Tinubu have never boasted like this. Including Ambode. His previous predecessors did more than that Chicago criminal. You guys are dumb and your brain looted by one senile people's mandate stealer from Iragbiji. Go and tell us how he developed Osun his state

You then there were mountain heaps of refuse dumps right in the middle of the road in isolo and okota, it was a nightmare driving through those areas.

If you know you know.

XAUBulls:

Indeed... A very true and insightful video of Lagos State back in the day as of 1999. The brutal Military rule did a lot of damage to the human psyche and economic development simply got arrested due to Military corruption from the mid-1980s.

The then Governor Bola Tinubu now President Bola Tinubu had to start upgrading Lagos State again from the decayed infrastructure with the technocrats he brought into goverment (with former Governor Babatunde Fashola as his Chief-of-Staff). More certainly has to be done to transform the entire Nigerian landscape for the benefit of all.

HAAA! Wetin be your offense? Sango-Ota to Igbobi College? Were you even able to learn anything in school after that stress?

ba7man:
You're right in a way. Lagos was beautiful, calm, serene when I was growing up.

I lived in Festac with play grounds that had trees, we had side walks, could ride bikes without fear. LSTC transport buses were popular too. That axis had different estates too.

I also used to spend weekends on Lagos Island where there were Brazilian styled bungalows and families used to sit in verandahs in front of their homes for the evening breeze and watching kids play.

Then The Igbo spare part traders moved into both Festac and Lagos Island. TheIr 419s and cocaine pushers flooded into that axis and turned everywhere into an overcrowded market place, selling Tokunbo cars and spare parts at any space they could find, setting up shops everywhere, choking up the environment.

Of course their arrival brought the rise of armed robbery and crime. We moved out of Festac and used to keep hearing how it was now a crime infested place.

Once you drive past Oshodi towards Isolo, the whole mood changes.

It's really ironic that the same people that fast tracked the decay of Lagos are the same ones saying trash here today.

bakynes:
Yes, Lagos was former Capital of Nigeria with lots of infrastructure done by the British then the Federal Government but if you were born and lived in Lagos, you will understand that after the FCT was moved from Lagos to Abuja in 1991, the city was rotting away, it was a land of dirt, refuse, crime, pollution and infrastructural decay. Chaos everywhere, to say Tinubu, Fashola and their successors in Ambode and now Sanwo-Olu didn't reform Lagos and set it on a path of greatness is pure ignorance.
