Lagos mainland can not be more beautiful than old Owerri metropolis.

Never

Bros... the whole of Lagos apart from Island is Mainland. But if you are talking about real beautiful places in Mainland, there are. Very peaceful too. And "very very" clean.

I laugh at these pictures. So many places in Mainland more beautiful than these. Lol.

I guess you live around outskirt of Lagos. I don't need to argue with you. Blessing.

I did not argue with you about which is closer between Herbert Marcaulay and Gbagada. All I did was tell you why I prefer the former. And I did say that even though Costain is the closest and I have a family home there, I might not take it.

OK. Let me rank my preferences from most to least preferred.

1. Ikoyi
2. Surelere (Bode Thomas, Ogunsanya down to Ogunlana). I can easily climb the bridge in Costain and get to the island quickly. But I will be cautious about the traffic. What applies to Herbert Marcauly applies to this location as well.
3. Herbert Marcauly
4. Magodo
5. Gbagada (I will have to really check very well for a good spot).
6. Ikeja to Maryland (I will not attempt to connect the Island here. Only proximity to the international airport and high-valued properties exist here.


To be honest, I think Number 3 is the most affordable and underrated. I can easily connect WAEC, YabaTech, and UNILAG. In addition, Ozone in Sabo is a good weekend recreation spot. Suya spots there too. If I am near Harvey Road, I can easily put on my workout clothes and jog around the neighborhood...just enter different cool streets and pull out to Ozone...and then Muritala Muhammed. Alternatively, I can easily run from Yaba to Oyingbo along Muritala via the pedestrian walkway beside the BRT lane. Do you know why I love this? The land on that side of the road is part of the railway compound. No sellers with kioks because railway compound forbids it.

If I am going to anywhere very far in Lagos and I don't want any wahala and train reaches the places, I can easily get on board at either Alagomeji terminal or oyingbo.

Let me stop here. I can keep going on why this area is just perfect. It is so underappreciated, but believe me, guys are already making it one of the areas where smart investors live and tech guys operate from. That area also has excellent Internet connectivity. Honestly, the place is fantastic for a variety of reasons.

Ypu can connect Ojuelegba and Oyingbo easily (those two newly constructed bridges that prevents motorists from passing through the railway eradicate traffics there on most days...though there can still be issues there) and then move along Western Avenue. Before you know it, you are at the National Stadium and Teslim Balogun Stadium in less than 5 mins if you move on a day there is no traffic. And just 2 mins further, you have reached the National Theater at Iganmu. Can you see that this area connects everywhere? So many good activities I have shown you. This is the real place to enjoy Lagos if you are self employed and enjoy your time. This area is good for taking your family out every weekend. So many good spots to relax and catch fun. Hahaha! Lest I forgot...just at Casino, there is Rowe Park for mini trainings and sports if you don't want to go to the National Stadium or Teslim Balogun. 2 stadia and one standard sport center. Let me burst your head...just drive a bit further from Yaba and enter Ojuelegba...ifnthere is traffic, enter Surulere via Ogulana drive...and you van navigate to Lagos Teaching University Hospital easily.

Like I said, I don't drive cos

Let me stop here. Just read...Where in Lagos can you get this? Where?

Sir, I appreciate this conversation.. thanks. I hope readers can learn from this post..

You're a true lagos man. I can't say less.

Honestly, this is not necessary.

I know why you feel the need to respond but sometimes, the concept of "mojukuro" is the best thing.

For me, before opening these threads, I expect the worst from Obidients and they don't dissapoint.

Lagos is a very poor and toxic city with people suffering from mental illnesses due to the hardship caused by traffic and lack of social services. These pictures are not realities.

Owerri has barely improved ever since the Rochas years! I can’t wait for that usurper in Douglas House (that’s when the bothers to leave Abuja) to just do and go! And if Ndi-Imo like they can allow him to rig in a puppet to succeed him!

I can choose more than 3 spots in Owerri, do an aerial view of 4 cardinal points, with all points appearing beautiful.

Show me any other city in Nigeria with this arrangement

Why not create a thread to show us instead of satimg such on a Lagos island thread?

You are talking rubbish.

How many times do you see images of ordinary streets in pictures of New York or London? Is it not always the landmarks like Manhattan and Trafalgar Square and Big Ben?

But when it comes to Nigeria we must ignore the landmarks and show you the “ordinary streets”.

Rubbish.

Pikin

Show the four cardinal points from this same position.


With social media, you can never bend facts..

Owerri is the only city in Nigeria where all cardinal points from same spot appear beautiful

You don't get it, do you ?

Choose the most beautiful spot in Ibadan and do an aerial of 4 cardinal points to counter my assertion.

It's not about landmass

Jokes, tribal sentiment and politics aside.
Lagos is one of the pride of Africa.
Congratulations 🎉 to this height of development by the Governor.
I think Lagos have an inherent template, that every Governor that comes into Government is forced to do a new thing.

Pictures can be deceptive

Our no man's land is beautiful but over populated due to many jobless Yorubas who migrated from other states without skill and education to engage in any meaningful adventure other than
Agberos work
Playing lotto and baba ijebu
Begging in the streets


Lagos is Yorubaland 100%
