Look at this maga.What makes you think it is an improvement to destroy the environment unnecessary using oyinbo made technologies that are main to keep them functional in their temperate regions in tropical nigeria where the SUN is ever visible round the year and where is never electricity?Blind followers.

They should be thinking of making people's habitat liveable,planned and descent,rather they are talking of bullshhit.They should create secure communal areas,gardens in apartments and streets,with lines where people can hang there washes paid for with the people's taxes.

Not that your brand of crass nonsense, absurdity and pedestrian thinking is a new malady on NL, but some of you indeed take it too far and it's very disheartening.

You can only free yourself mental slavery when you think otherwise.Washed clothes on lines is not what makes lagos dangerous or unattractive,it is filth,cluelessness of the people,the government and inherent corruption.I bet the state wants to go into laundry business,like they monopolized transport and turned molue owners into destitutes overnight.Same with okada riders.

kulyie: no but lagosians should learn to live like civiil human beings,less obstinate and more receptive to change especially when its positive and for the environmental good to meet up with 21st century standards so that we will be a force to be reckoned with in the global scene,so we need a refined megacity,not a chaotic,polluted and anarchical environment and system

I seriously dont know how getting ur cloth sundried is a menace/environmental evil pls enlighten me. But calling residents of lagos uncivil and laggards in technology (note: tech is not limited to gadget it covers all forms of innovation for e.g using condoms, seeing a doctor) is really a sad thing, there are steps to adopting tech and if it dont favour the clientel they abandon em. Seriously Lagosians are not uncivil if not d complants wont just be on the internet and u know it, so pls stop encouraging fash to call ppl who voted him in and pay his salary via tax uncivil.

so much filth in lagos streets not to mention the filth of the corruption and he is attacking what may be one of the few cleanest things in the state=fresh washed clothes airing to dry...it is healthy process to be about cleaning clothes and airing them to dry fresh...how much has the government focused on sealing off any govt.office or station that keeps so much dirty laundry (corruption) festering in its chambers? what about the smelling gutters in the streets and that filth and sanitation pick up blind spots...and he wants to go after the sight of clean fresh smelling clothes and peoples practice of personal hygeine because its done in plain sight get the electric supply first to power drying machines like in USA and co. and then get people wages to afford such dryer machines...what a filthy government and they are eyeing attack on clean clothes....im suspecting brain damage there or some devious personal vindictive motive in this endevour by what ever official proposed or supported it....Gods help must be the way out if only people were to recognize what that is when it appears before them...every one wants to be the voice of God representative and squabble difference anyway in that department also....

all this talk of how rich lagos is becomeing and the new image it must present..what good is an image when tha fact is that there is wealth enough to support every one there but only .1% keep it for themselves wondering whats wrong with the shanty ways of people with nothing...they say:go make it for yorself,grow food to eat,after they bought all the land to make building profit and put no tresspass sign...go sell something of your own,after they own all the market niches and compete fiercly to eliminate competition..go get a job after they own all the industries to be employed in and are looking to down size employees so as to increase a few kobo profit to make the $1 billion account reach a little higher growth.............a city is all its inhabitants and their needs..one nation in peace and unity means all its inhabitants and their needs...national creed does not sing:one nation for those who can compete it all for themselves and castigate every on else out of the way to hell because they didnt make it in the scam of free market motivated by fears son called greed..............If not takeing care of all the people;at the very least,leave them be to care for themselves in the pityful marginal way left behind for them after a very few elite greedist took it all and work hard to keep any one else from finding profit niches because they want it for themselves....its called capitalist monopoly and it counts a few peoples unsurmountable wealth as the wealth of the nation while overlooking the vast majority of citizens left with only scraps to scrape.....

What else is new? You like and prefer ghetto and slum living, but other people said no more slum and gehtto living. The only difference here remains the fact that you are very very irrelevant and your 1st century mentality is limited to the sorry pages of NL and has no bearing on the good people of Lagos trying to engage a clean, oderly and decent society.

Cofine your disorderliness to your village or get thrown in jail...

kulyie: he has every right to kick their asses out if they cannot obey simple environmental laws of lagos state .the annoying part of it is that they keep giving lame excuses that they dont have money,yet they give birth every month :/

Creating orderly society by legitimating touting and creating primitive titles to destabilize legitimate businesses.And now making draconic rules that people should hang their washed clothes outside in a slum like lagos.Does hanging clothes outside cause mosquito infestations that kills countless on daily basis?Does it block the drainage?

He is way out of order and like you too fo-olish to know what is important.

Shut up old man!

This is what the LASG have decided upon. If for one reason or the other, people like you that keep saying Lagos is too dirty are still not comfortable with the legislation ...you either go to court or look to live elsewhere where such law doesn't exist.

Why the hatred and perpetual complain against LASG?

Still on this matter eh? Some people argue merely to appear intelligent, or to convince themselves that they are not as obtuse as they fear they really are.

Several reasonable commenters have made it clear that there are BIGGER priorities for the LASG to commit it's limited resources to than hounding tenants and/or homeowners over clothes hung on balconies and whatnot. A number of people have also made it clear that even in places like London that Lagos is (unsuccessfully) trying to emulate, residents in low-cost housing hang their clothes on their balconies and in open spaces visible to the public.

Nonetheless, NL pseudo-intellectuals remain rabidly convinced that the most important thing Lagos needs now is a law criminalising hanging of clothes on balconies. That is more important than fixing poor drainage and clogged canals that cause flooding even in the so-called high-brow Lekki and Ikoyi, let alone in the suburbs. Never mind the other bigger issues of broken down infrastructure, government-endorsed extortion rackets, abysmal state of public utilities, etc. etc. It is more important to waste time and money looking to seal houses where inhabitants hang their clothes on their balconies. Solve the 'problem' of ugly-looking clothes hung on balconies, and Lagos becomes paradise on Earth. Great!

It makes no sense to argue with lunatics, lest onlookers fail to differentiate the sane from the insane.

You are a fo.ool.Lagos has more pressing problems to worry about than hanged washes out.The only inkling i am getting from this is that tinubu is trying to run a state sponsored laundry that will compel most lagos to wash and dry there with this law in place or that he is trying to introduce and monopolize the sale of tumble dryers.Or maybe he wants to start exporting okrikas cotonue by sending areas like you to forcefully steal people's clothes.

What alternative do people have in lagos for drying their washes than the sun?

Animals like think rome was built in a day.There are rules that are out of reach for slums like lagos.It will take decades,if not centuries to come for rules like that to be relevant in a city that doesn't have running water,proper sewage system,planned streets and habitable homes.

My brother, am still baffled as to how people are defending this law while keeping a straight face.Some are even playing to the gallery with wild claims that people leave their homes to spread cloths at high ways and bridge railings.
Just like Thomas Jefferson said "truth is certainly a branch of morality and a very important one to the society" but on this thread,these paid hacks don't know when to draw the line in defence of their meal ticket.At every turn on this thread they have succeeded in turning the truth on its head.If we cannot call a spade a spade and call the bluff that this law is,then am sorry we have lost it as a nation.

Politics / Re: The Dirtiness That "Is" Nigeria by redsun[/b]3:14pm On Apr 29

Nigeria has not defined society ,no government for sure and no policies.

[b]An average nigerian adult does not understand the concept of why a street should be kept clean and that explains why the people that are designated to keep the streets functional steals the resources that are supposedly budgeted for such projects.


I come from a descent country side in naija and every time mosquito hit me i lagos with malaria,i use to run home to recuperate from filth and polluted environment because my home was clean with no expose dumps,sewage and mosquitos.

I was born clean and i will remain clean,because cleanliness is godliness.I am godlike

^^^^^^^^^^^ Silly hypocrite.

This action is not about cleanliness...Its about improving our environment's appearance.

If everyone should Paint their houses, clean their environment and "Stop hanging clothes out in public glare, it would greatly reduce that "Ghetto look" Lagos has.

Those saying "Lagos has more pressing issues", who told you they're not being attended to?? We should not excuse the short commings of "The Poor" all because of the excuse that "They're poor".

We shouldn't encourage them deface the environment, build shanties and trade on just any street because "they're poor".

A clueless and confused govt.

Instead of concentrating and find work to do in many criticial areas of people's lives, they are chasing after silly and senseless things....simply because they have misplaced priorities.
