I'm still trying to understand why it had to be built in the middle of a lagoon, ergo, they're gonna have to transport the kids on boat, and their parent would allow it. That's superb.

... that's an evidence that no one dies anymore in the lagoon especially if it were to be ibos that's living there. Believe me, you will definitely need a visa to travel to the lagoon. Incase if lagos is doing shakara and decide to pursue the ibos into the lagoon. Next four years, lagosians will be jumping into the lagoon and they will be renting an accommodation for 1.5million there. And youruba girls will be like "I want to go to the lagoon island to visit my ibo boyfriend". They will even drive cars that have names like [size=15pt]]Range rover evolution submersible , can dive to a depth of 6000km. Swaggs will dominate in the lagoon[/size].I hope one Oba of lagos is seeing these cities. .

Do politicians ask vote from these people?
Do they really seek their consent in election matters?
I wonder if a Governor exit in this state;
Why do politicians keep human beings in this condition?
This is incredible and a big shame to Nigerian.

Infact, I could remember vividly when CNN came to interview inhabitants of Makoko which they entered the school while under construction.
These people are born and bred on water

You be real Mutiu.
The Lagos Fishes will eat the ibos first and the Lagoon will vomit the rest of their carcass.
That would be put inside Luxurious bus and taken back for burial in Nnewi.

We dont want their smelly deadbody polluting our Lagoon for too long

Have you not watched "welcome to Lagos". Makoko is a town built on water. Everything there is on water, houses, market, school.

First thing that came to my mind, well done to the architect for showing his skills, but in truth humans should not live in such cesspit..

The pupils and their parents are "boat people."

They live in houses built on stilts within thew vicinity of the school.

The children are used to water transportation,
