Clearly Lagos was very developed before oil was discovered and continues to develop based on the Best shoreline in the country giving it the exclusive privilege of the Major Port since the 1890s. Eko Akete 13 Likes 3 Shares |

Years when corruption hasn't arrive. When UK was begging Nigerians to come to UK for their holidays. When in most stores in the UK you see the inscription "Naira (n) is acceptable here". O Lord! Please, visit our nation again. ![]() 10 Likes 1 Share |

codemaniacs: Don't forget we had regionalism then. North had groundnut, SW cocoa, SE/SS had some coca, rubber & oil palm. In fact all of Southern Nigeria had fairly similar things to offer. Oil palm or rubber wasn't scarce in SW either. But no doubt federal income contributed to Lagos growth as National capital. Even though Lagos has been booming since 1860s already. I think it was more about discipline & foresight of Awo and followers in the SW generally. Until Awo-Akintola stand off came about. 1 Like |
