That's because those cities were not included. I think they only used the 30 most populous cities in the world.
use any indices you want, Lagos cannot even be described as a city. Just a collection of slums

Lagos? Is Lagos even a city in the sense of it?
I have been to more than 50 cities all over the world, Lagos is nothing close to what a city looks like. Lagos is the worst city that I have been to in my life. Useless and hopeless place.
Even cotonou beat Lagos hands down. Not to talk of Accra, Gambia, Dakar, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Seychelles, Cape Verde, Tunis, Algiers, Morocco.
Haba, even in Africa, Lagos is the worst city that exists.
Been to Asia. Hong Kong, shanghai, Tokyo, Taiwan, Seoul. Many many others.
Not to talk of Europe.


Congratulations!! Clap for yourself. You should just say Lagos is hell on earth.

Your problem is the problem a lot of Nigerians have and face. Lack of exposure. Until you explore other societies, you will never comprehend the full extent as to how phucked up everything about Nigeria is. Nigeria cannot be on the top 1000 list not to talk of the top 100. Accra, tallin, Riga, etc, are not on the list but Lagos is. Ok. I hear una. A city that is unbelievably dirty, ugly and dilapidated. Where nothing functions. Lol. To you, it may be the best thing since fried rice, but i assure you, it is absolutely horrible to say the least. Just because a bunch of people who don't know Lagos or ever been there are saying it is a great city does not mean it is. Smh

Whether you like it or not, Lagos is a city and a highly urbanized one with a staggering population. So, based on that, it will make the cut most times, but will definitely score badly because it's nowhere as developed as any of those other cities. If a city like Abuja can make the cut, then it will rank better compared to Lagos.

But if it was Aba that was included you would have applauded the Op Abi? Yes I guess.

Guy park well

Of course if it was Enugu,Port Harcourt or Awka i'd have approved .Your point is moot and you don't even know it.

Afam4eva:
Actually, only 30 cities were used in the finding, so don't make it seem like Lagos scored a point as Lagos came last among the 30 cities. It's better they don't include Lagos in these rankings than put it just for us to carry last as usual.
Duh. The report never stated that only certain cities were used. So yours are nothing but speculations. By the way, Istanbul, Cairo and Kinshasa have very enormous populations too, some greater than Lagos. But they were not listed. So come up with something smarter.

I live in Abuja. And I know Lagos like the back of my hands.
Population doesn't make a place a city. Lagos is just a hell. The worst place to live on earth.
See Lagos island, see VI, Ikoyi, Lekki and d rest. Just rubbish. Go to cotonou or Accra or Dakar or Cape Verde and see. Not to talk of Asia or Europe or Northern America

LONDON, Sept. 06, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- London claims pole position for the second time in a row in a comprehensive benchmarking study of 30 leading business centres globally, boding well for its ability to withstand post–Brexit competition on a number of fronts.

https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2016/09/06/869907/0/en/London-ranks-top-in-PwC-Cities-of-Opportunity-Index-followed-by-Singapore-and-Toronto.html

Fulfilling human needs appears as a cornerstone of successful cities in the study—notable because our 30 cities are all business and economic centers

Puvor:
The survey asked 5,200 people from 16 countries questions about their perceptions of cities, ranked on everything from transportation and infrastructure to demographics and livability. Question topics touched on politics, economics and social issues. PwC, a London-based audit and tax consulting network, polled participants in December 2015, before the Brexit vote.
In a recent PWC survey, London ranked No. 1 as the perceived best city in the world. London took the top spot, because people said it has a "well-developed infrastructure," is well-connected globally and has a "well-developed legal framework." The city also received high marks in education and access to capital.
Paris came in at No. 2 because of its reputation as a trend-setter. Also, people think of it as a great destination for entertainment and food.
New York City placed third because of its"economic power," entertainment, setting trends and "having a well-developed physical and technological infrastructure. "Points against this city — traffic congestion and high cost of living.Here is the official ranking:
1. London
2. Paris
3. New York
4. Amsterdam
5. Sydney
6. Berlin
7. Tokyo
8. Toronto
9. Stockholm
10. Los Angeles
11. San Francisco
12. Dubai
13. Milan
14. Madrid
15. Chicago
16. Hong Kong
17. Singapore
18. Beijing
19. Seoul
20. Rio
21. Shanghai
22. Moscow
23. Johannesburg
24. Kuala Lumpur
25. Mexico City
26. São Paulo
27. Mumbai
28. Jakarta
29. Bogotá
30. Lagos
