LAGOS Mainland Is Gone by babasolution: 5:48pm On Mar 07 |
The truth is Lagos mainland cannot be resuscitated or beautified again.The whole area is a complete mess. I have been seeing many beautification efforts,efforts to clean up,beautify,restore bad areas but it never works ,soon as an area is restored a bit it breaks down almost immediately, I don't think there's any effort that can reshape and reorganise the mainland. It's a lost cause. Infact a new ECONOMIC planned city as to be built for Nigeria like Abuja. LAGOS is gone |

Dey play. The mainland of last three years is different from the mainland of today. A lot has happened but mostly on individual development. Though it slowed down since last year. Not much is happening anywhere in Nigeria 4 Likes |

The problem of Lagos State is overpopulation. The island is much decent because the cost of living around there is high. Despite that, you will see a bunch of homeless people overrunning pedestrian overpasses the next day after its commissioning. However, the solution is simple. Tinubu should work with Akpabio to restructure the country so as to reduce migration to Lagos. It's as though all the jobs in Nigeria are in Lagos. That is, you must live in Lagos to make it in life. That's not how to plan a country. Tinubu and his group of Lagos politicians are moving important government institutions and departments to Lagos, thereby worsening the situation. Decentralise the country. Instead of concentrating everything in few places, spread them to bring about widespread development across the country. APC should be sincere with its leadership in Lagos so that they don't need any area boys to rig elections for them in the future. This is understandably why they support a lot of thugs and don't want to rehabilitate them. What I find particularly disturbing is that many tourists visit Lagos and use Lagos to form their opinion about the country without knowing that there are much saner parts of the country. They see Nigeria through Lagos' lens. Those foreigners who visit Lagos don't have good things to say about the country. I saw one online shouting that everywhere smells in Nigeria after visiting Oshodi! I have a lot of write, but I don't want to write more than this. 16 Likes 4 Shares |

SoNature: If time travel is possible I would take you back in time to see Lagos of 70s and 80s. Homelessness and overpopulation is to see able bodied people making under bridges their homes. Is it demarcating roads with waste or making side walks refuse dump you want to wake up daily to see? Though it fall short of expectations but it is way better than the past 7 Likes 1 Share |

You're talking about lagos mainland, what about oyo state, bayelsa state, Ogun state, Abia state, Anambra state and parts of Rivers? Interestingly the most organised and high brow areas in Nigeria were designed by the colonial masters or pre 1999 leaders, case in point, old and new gra in Port Harcourt, new and old Bodija in ibadan, ikoyi, yaba, Victoria Island, ikeja gra, magodo, just to mention a few, when our people took charge, they started building houses haphazardly without style and organisation, its sad. When I travel round, I realise that Nigeria can never be like a first world country aesthetically, there's just too much disorganisation and poverty 4 Likes |
