ShitHead:
Tinubu has used their destiny for 2023.

laribari:
There is always be slums and ghettos even in New York, you will find them there.

lanetrips:
I think some of these areas are construction sites hence the workers sleep at the sites who only go to their respective homes on weekends wash,spread and wear their clothes there.

Tos87:
Over rated state.

Dagger111:


Jealousy will kill you there.

Staro:
OP, why are you surprised?

The second worst city to live in the world is LAGOS.

I feel sad that our leaders travel abroad but return home to allow us live like pig

Topsodesupport:
But it's not compulsory to live in Lagos sha

ruffbamreal:
Most people in Lagos need to go back to their villages for farming. Being you Yorùbá, Hausa or Igbo. They are suffering and creating problems.

Ugosample:


but then the States they are coming from are faokrr states

So you can't blame thrm for seeking better life in Lagos

it's human nature

Angelfrost:


Tell that to the large number of citizens trooping in daily from every region in the nation... This is what happens when you center all major business activities and international business interests in one state... Lagos has long ceased to be the capital of Nigeria, but the memo obviously failed to trickle down all these decades. It never occurred to your leaders to decentralize business activities by opening up seaports in other parts of the country, even move diplomatic buildings, or mandate industries to relocate to other states...

Shall we talk about the failure of most states to create jobs, and enable establishment of businesses to accommodate the teeming work force of the nation...

This is truly a shithole...

Fhemmmy:


How do you define better life, is it better life for someone to leave his or her own room in the village and come to lagos only to reside under the brdige?
It is a better life for someone to leave his acre of land in the village where he could plant corn and cassava to earn a living to come to lagos and live like animals?
I think a better life thing is very subjective to conditions and situation . . . . .

sweetrace:
Lagos is very dirty. In parts of the so called prestigious Lekki phase 1, you can see clothes hung out to dry on the fences of some shops as you drive out. Some roads have mama put sellers selling to their very loud clients. These plus the floods of Lekki make some parts look like a shantytown. Serious depreciation!! They come with their dirty habits and uncouth manners. Refusing to let their environment influence them positively. Let’s not forget the begging!!! Tell them to exert themselves a little to get the money and they’ll rain curses. They all want to be big boys and big girls overnight. But of course, it is not their fault. It must be the fault of the usual culprit: the government! They’ll come and teach them how to keep their environment clean, how to talk, ethics....

Ugosample:



mhmmm

the lure for better life brought many to Lagos

many villages and places in Nigeria have nothing going for them

that's the fact

Ugosample:


it's a shame really

Folks with nigger shithole mentality will always have shithole mentality

That is the tragedy of Lekki and every highbrow area in NiggerArea

The govt need to use iron hand to shape the thinking of its barbaric populace

Sometimes, you don;t have to depend on the government for job creation. Why can't the people take up farming instead of trooping to Lagos for a life they have no idea how it will end, or before leaving the village for Lagos, what have they done or skills acquired that will help them to survive in the city, they will carry their bags and just move to the city. Most in the village needs to take up farming and even those in Lagos will depend on them
few years ago, most of the students in Lagos were sponsored in school by the farming business of their fathers and mothers, so now we are all educated and instead of adding education to farming, we chose to dump farming and blame the government

Fhemmmy:


Villages still have lots of lands for farming, still lots of land for animal husbandry, they complain about fulanis and yet they are the ones that are feeding the nation, imagine what people can do to create jobs in agriculture . . . That is one sector that will never stop being in need of people and investment

Bahddo:
everyone can't be farmers. Farming is level 1 civilization, especially the subsistence kind you are advocating for.

What we need is industrialization in most parts of the country. We need to be able to produce basic things (besides food) and generate adequate power so we can take part in the current tech revolution.
