Anyone that lives comfortably in other less stressful states like osun, ondo ekiti etc will not appreciate the peace of mind he HSS until he comes to Lagos. Lagosians have made hard life look like a normal life. If you can't learn to run after korope or keke napep, they will tell you that u can't live in Lagos. Someone saw my carrying my son and how he's fond of me, she said my son doesn't know anything that in Lagos he will be on his own when his dad and mum have left early in the morning until late at night. I just said to myself "is this life Lagosians are proud of?"
Bad roads everywhere, flood and dirty environments. Overpriced house rents.
You are blessed. Lagos is a shithole... but you know we Nigerians tend to take pride in the wrong things.

I really don't quite understand why this part of Ogba gets flooded. The drainages are more than sufficient; Metalbox road and Acme road have drainages at least 7 feet deep, and just as wide, yet there are days when it rains and these drainages are filled to the brim.

Oh faherland. You shall rise again. After we are done pursuing all these intruders and invaders far away and we hoist your right flag.

God bless Oduduwa Republic.

it's a shithole because invaders and intruders made it so all in the name of One useless One Nigeria. Theu've ruined all our lands, they did same to Ibadan now they are ruining Lagos. Reason all invaders and intruders must leave our land alone and return to wherever they come from. Our land isn't part of your Nigeria. We'll forcefully reyurn them home soon if they fail to return willingly and peacefully. And all the same, hope where you come from is better than the place you just called a sh*thole?

Lagos is collapsing in our very own eyes, its on lockdown. one guy was trying to defend the gov on twitter saying its all "a teething problem". But is far beyond that, Lagos legs, n hands v broken, i hope it doesnt affect d spinal.

Stop exagerating my friend.
Once rain is too heavy, it is normal to feel the effect in low-lying areas.
it happens all over the world and l am sure you have seen so many, in Europe, America, China, India and other advance economies so Lagos is not an exception.
If you say Lagos is collapsing, broken, .....what will you call that your region of Nigeria? Dead and buried, right? undecided undecided

The quality of life is better, economy is poorer though.

That said, it is common knowledge that people migrate to places with better economy, so your point on invasion or intrusion is not right in my opinion unless you also consider people travelling out for greener pastures invaders/intruders too.
If the government does not ensure equal opportunity in other states, Lagos will continue to grow worse as population density increases.

Everything has its Pros and Cons.
- The value of that your property in that backyard state, even when you spend the same amount in building it, is not worth 1/50th of smilar property in Lagos
- A boy of the same age as your Son who grew up in lagos, will sell yor son for 10K, if we leave two of them alone for just one hour. grin
- With much stress comes much revenue! How much does your state make in IGR? How much does your state contribute to Federal Revenue? Yoru state is a learner.
- I am sure we all know how "environment" affects us and who we are. Someone like you is a bush man, going from work to farm cassava grin and it has affected your mentallity! When Lagosians are balling, people like you will just open mouth agape and be asking; Kino'nso (wetin dem dey talk grin ).

Eko 4'Show! Eko 4'Gold!! Eko to'baad gan.
Na jealousy wan kill all you people from rural. farm states. Your Governors come to Lagos every weekend, to enjoy life. if you doubt me, go and ask former Governor Fayose why he always come to Lagos every Thursday evening and goes back on Monday morning. grin grin

They said "Ibo person dreams of going to only two places in his life: Either he goes Abroad or he goes to Lagos.

and you know say Ibo sabi sense well well, he can smell money and business, even in his sleep.

Until I got transferred from my place of work to Osun befr I got to knw dat Lagos is hell on it own. Although at first when I received the letter I felt like how do I cope. Bt let me be sincere wit u, even coming to Lagos for visitation to my parents has been somtin else. Cos fresh foods directly from the farmers, spacious rooms, fresh breeze, less noise pollution, wit constant electricity, no traffic, less police on the road, no touts to exploits u and good roads better than Lagos, is wot I've been experiencing since I moved here. But it's good to first stay in Lagos cos it helped me to be smarter than people I encountered here. People here worry less honestly, they open their shops around 9 or 10 then close around 6 or 6.30 in d evening and yet they meet ends meet.
