This is the Facebook picture that has sparked a police investigation. The police are asking members of the public who can identify the man in this picture - which may have been manipulated - to come forward to assist them in their investigation. We have obscured the child's face to protect his identity, but child advocacy groups are concerned about the youngster's well being. This happened in South Africa

That is another horrible report that would not make me ever think of living in South Africa.

Lagos State is unliveable.


Hence the quest and that shocking but commom-sensical clarion call for the creation of Lagoon State being a justifiable cause and agitation. Although Lagos has the smallest land mass, but when it comes to social responsibility, infrastructures decay with the necessity for a much needed upgrade, and general urban regeneration and renewal,  Lagos is in a dire strait. The State Government is overwhelmed by the problems of Lagos.

At times I think all Fashola’s effort at sanitizing Lagos is like using a tea cup to scoop water from a mighty ocean.  embarassed

Lagos State created in 1967 is one of the oldest States in Nigeria; it should be divided into 2 states,   Lagoon State and Mainland State. Lagoon State would include Lagos Island, Ikoyi, VI, Lekki to Epe Town and maybe Ikorodu Town.

While Mainland State would be all the mainland areas including Badagry with Capital moved to  Badagry instead of Ikeja so as to decongest the Mainland and develop the Badagry axles.

In its present form, Lagos State requires billions of dollars to be a liveable world acclaimed City in the true sense of it.

I do not believe that Lagos, Nigeria is one of the most unlivable cities in the world. Many parts of Lagos is beautiful especially if they are privately owned, take a visit to Festac (where I live), Victoria Island, IKoyi, Lekki ,Victoria Garden city (VGC), central bank estate, just to mention a few. I do understand some problems that is faced when living in Lagos, but even at that, Lagos is very peaceful maybe not the extreme standard of living that you would expect. There are so many places that are worst than Lagos that is not even included, say like North Africa. Because I live there, and I go through the day to day lives of a proper Nigerian. I therefore disagree that this statistic is wrong!
