Statistics have shown that Lagos is the most populated City in Africa. The Lagos State Government estimates the
population of Lagos at 17.5 million, although this
number has been disputed by the Nigerian
Government and found to be unreliable by the
National Population Commission of Nigeria, which put
the population at about 21 million in 2014. Lagos
surpassed Cairo in size in 2012 to become the largest
city of Africa. The list compiled below is not official but at least
you can have some idea about biggest cities on
earth. Check out the list of 10 Most
