Until Dalong or Buhari eat in Surulere without security. Then I'll believe surulere is secured.
Surulere is a hub where drug abusers connect in Lagos.

Surulere is undoubtedly one of the key transport nodes of Lagos, as it connects the city’s mainland with Lagos Island and Victoria Island. Basically, it serves as a mid-point between the Island and Mainland and living there ensures you have quick and easy access to both areas.

You will never be bored at night if you live in Surulere. There is a load of great bars, lounges, and pubs…and most importantly, there is good security in most of the areas. You find clubs where you can stumble along to for a dance on a rogue Tuesday night, as well other bars that open from 10am to 4am every single day including Sundays.

How many motor parks and garages dey for gbagada?

When we R talking of midpoint we R not saying dat it should just stand idly in d middle. It should be a connecting point like ojuelegba in surulere.



Surulere rocks!

Armed robbery capital of Lagos.

You mean mushin. ..

I disagree on point number 3 which is that it has the best street food. I think anybody that knows Ebute-metta well will agree with me that it has the best street food. Amara joints everywhere, Big and fresh roasted plantain, Fresh and nice fried yam, dodo, Akara etc.

Surfleet gini?? Weed in action

Hv u been to other places?

@OP, Surulere has its own drawbacks oh. I'd list a few to my best knowledge:

1) Rainy season floods.
2) All season open and static drainages.
3) Mosquitos and rodent infection.
4) Security risks due to proximity to low end neighbourhoods like Mushin and Ojuelegba.
5) Hide out for drug dealers, fraudsters and campus cultists.
6) proliferation of hotels with "easy-virtue" services.
7) Unduly high cost of rent and leases due to proximity to Victoria Island.
Many streets are still clogged with old NEPA and NITEL poles and cables.
9) Water scarcity due to absence of public running water and high cost of drilling boreholes.
10) Noise pollution due to too many unplanned motorparks, public transporters, loud speakers (churches, joints and roadside sharks).

I have a feeling that if you compare SL to some newer neighbourhoods in the state, you may find that SL's supposed advantages are only meaningful to folks who work on the island but cannot afford to live on the island.

I stay @ rabiatu thompson crescent..*SHITTA* Surulere is dope. your list aint complete yet until you add "PVSSY"... Shitta is full of them, from the age "18 to 25" fresh bloods.

You forgot to add light! They have stable electricity supply. Except when something goes wrong. If not, you will get tired of seeing light.

Though, one negative is that most of their houses are old and outdated in structure and designs.
