This is What 80% Live, See & Go Through

Nic pixs. But Lagosians, if life is this terrible, why are you guys still living in the city, especially the flood-proned areas? Una dey try oo. Then Orji Uzor Kalu; This is real 'suffering and smiling'. Are you sure all is well with you as shown on your face?

Does Lagos really looks that. If that's the case then I'll rather stay home in South Africa. Shit man I really thought that Nigeria was batter looking than other African countries but good lord that place is mess

Thabo, the pics remind me of Alexandria, and parts of Soweto.

@Poster,

Only 80% ----You mean 90% of Nigeria, not just Lagos!   Slum country!

And the Logosians will party in such an environment!  Onitsha, Owerri, Benin-City, Ibadan, some parts of Abuja and other major cities in Nigeria are just like that!!!  Yet we make the most noise in Africa--For what --I do not know!!!!!

80% ,


Hmmmm, thats a BIG Lie !!!

With all respect, thats not even quarter true !!!
Consolidate your claims before presenting next time !!

Misho,
why did you call that a lie? i can see you among those who exaggerate the comatoes state of the nation, suffering and smiling type. if you're fooling yourself do you thing everybody knowledge limited to yours?

i DISAGREE WITH YOUR 80% STATISTICS.

I like that pics forwarded by you but will rather prefer you include the better part of our great country. It never speak well of you and I that we only have the bad side and no good side, you know that the world on its own, is a global village which have good and bad side even the most developed country.
 NIAJA is bless with all it need  to develop but for the people you show in the last pics, which are like that the EFCC are clapping down right now.i pray that one day we will stop the way we think that make us destroy our land.

Where can we find those pictures please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone put appealing pictures of Nigeria here? I really will want to show my co-workers here that Nigeria has some road networks and facilities that at best rival those found in the ghettos over here. But that has been a challenge. So guys, please dig up "good" pictures of Nigeria and show us oh!

My point is that 80% of Lagos is not like that. I know of a certainty that some part can be water logged during rainy season, but for crying out loud 80% is an exerggeration. _{Or if am permitted to make my own Dictionary - Over Exerggeration}

But 20% may be close to the truth. Let people living in Lagos talk !!!

Like all parts of Lagos can be qualified to be called "Lagos"--- Even the "bushes" are called "Lagos"!!!!! Please show us the 80% good parts please!

we do we continue to share all this pessimistic view and idea about Nigeria?  are there no more intriguing and inspirational pictures that we can find and share about this country?  It is mind bugling to see all this low life pics, not to same this are not valid issue. but we must always look at a bright side to continue to prosper

Ill be back to give you pics

Make it good this time pls !!

More Soweto

Ill be back with more intriguing pics, we need to stop promoting this skunk pictures of Nigerians.

Now this are how crative Nigerians are

Interesting pictures indeed!!!  I wonder why this catalogu stops in Abuja and Lagos.  What about the other 35 states in Nigeria?  I love Nigeria oh--so do not get me wrong in as much as I like to yab us and Nigeria as a whole.  I criticize out of love and humour.

My problem is that  people who present these kinds of images of Nigeria obviously have never lived outside of Nigeria to know what it means to have "buildings and infrastructure"!!!! As a country oozing of oil, we can do better than  these isolated cases.  There is no reason why every state in Nigeria should not be proud to have a well developed city at least.  Abuja and Lagos are just struggling to mirror what "development" should look like!  Still without any structural planning or maintenance culture!!!! Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!  We really have a long way to go!!!!!!

there are plenty of pictures of calabar as well. go check those out at flickr.com. nice place as well

Check this out !!!

We need inspirational pictures, that is the only way we can strive to do better and be better. We can't continue to dwell in this pessimistic view and strive to have a goal.

@topic

perverse Viewer you are

@inspirationists

deluded optimists you are

I mean really guys. You can't compare Soweto to Lagos. Lagos ia supposed to be compared to Johannesburg. Soweto is South Africa's no1 slump, so this means that if you compare it to Lagos that means Nigeria's big town is also the its biggest Slump.
FEED YOUR EYES

I'm Not A Pessimist. But Its Good To Stare Reality in the Face Sometimes. From There We Can Make Changes.
