Ajegunle AJ city you are mistaken! 2 Likes |

photoshoot: Anyone that puts Shomolu under lkeja must still be using past history when Lagos had just five divisions... His facts are just not right.. And llaje exists as a local givernment in Ondo but other fishing settlements populated by llaje people anywhere is also referred to as llaje hence llaje community also exists in Bariga and Makoko in Lagos and other places.. So that reference or lumping of shomolu as llaje slum is off point because llaje slum is in Bariga.. Anyway alot of people lump shomolu and Bariga together 4 Likes 1 Share |

These slums, where ever they are found, have three things in common: poverty, prostitution and crime. |

photoshoot:Then move your parasitic beggars back to your slums. We don't do begging. We are too sophisticated for that. Those gala sellers are our equivalent of your beggars. Where we come from, we rather sell gala or packed waters than to beg. Atleast we are not parasitic. Show me 1 Igbo beggar and I'll show you 150 Afonja beggars and 155 Northern beggars. I know you haven't gotten over the obvious. Lagos is a SLUM and their is not slum in SE. We have bad roads just like other regions, but we don't do slum like your wasted lands. The Sun will always rise in the East and set in the West. 4 Likes |

the sad thing is wealthy folks and politicians are still exploiting these slum folks using them for low paid labour hence why the politicians and wealthy people do not want to get rid of slums. these polluted and over populated slums can be get rid of easyly and it's dwellers relocated to a more better houses and environment, all the government have to do is build affordable rooms or houses and charge them reasonable rents and acumulate even more revenue. but No they just want to use them for political purposes like Thugging, killing of their opponents, exploitation of young and poor slum girls sexually, rape of young children ( girls and boys) and some times blame the slum young men and teenagers of the crimes that they the politicians and the Rich have commited send them to jail some times even murdered to save face or cover up their( the Rich and powerfull) crimes, its mind boggling. and very sad. 1 Like |

Have any of you guys done Community Outreach? The problem with slum dwellers is a mental one. When your environment is so run-down it affects your thinking. However when people try and help you out of It, you fight them out od cynicism and fear of change. Even if Government built low-cost housing, it would end up the same. Almost all of the low-cost housing I've seen looks rundown no matter what in a few years' time ans the inhabitants don't bother to maintain it but scream for government to keep their homes clean. Even abroad it's the same: go to the bad neighbourhood, fix the lights in the local park amd the next night the lights are broken because criminals need the place dark. Slum dwellers have to help themselves. In Lagos I've seen people volunteer (and i have volunteered) to go into slums and clean or do school renovations. Just a few joined us. Yet it's their school. People will be cleaning up the beach access to your island and you will be there, sitting nonchalantly. Then complain that you didn't get enough help. If we opened free libraries in the worst slums, how many parents would make their kids attend? At least you need basic knowledge of English and Maths to trade. They need it to be great but their apathetic nature won't allow them stir themselves to help. I remember seeing the day i I watched some men sit and laugh and gist as one of them was tampering with the newly constructed drainage on Orile Expressway. Later when it floods, they will scream "Government ignores us!" 9 Likes 3 Shares |

tolexy007: He didn't specify, and besides do you know any slum in Ondo state that would make top 20 in the world? What is the population of ondo state? The standard of living in ondo state isn't so bad as well. So even if he mentions ondo state which i doubt, then he is still wrong with it. 1 Like |

photoshoot:No. Chinese beggars. Always dirty. The Fulani and Hausa beggars are not even that dirty. They don't live under the bridges nor Shanties. They made more money than you can possibly imagine. The Agberos and Ashawos live there. There are large population of SE in Festac. Festac is on lock down for SE. 1 Like |

EzeNri: I thought after saying you know nothing, you would try to show I was wrong, but you instead made me very correct. Its probably what a relative of yours who came to lagos must have told you, that lagos got beggers, no doubt. What you don't know is people come from other states/neighbouring countries to lagos to beg! just like how some folks come to sell gala and lacasera. Now about where they live, I mean your gala selling folks, if they don't live in shanties or under bridge and festac, where then do they stay. You can still show me you know something Sir. 3 Likes |

Onegai: You've got a pretty sound brain. I am impressed with your simplified depiction of slum life pattern. To help those people out takes more than give them money or building them houses. You must first take the slum out of their mind and character before physically relocating them from the slum. 2 Likes |

olatunji21: Oju na, Agarawu, jankara, lsale eko, okepopo , massey, anikantamo, binuyo , princess , aroloya , lta faji are even better.. All they need in those areas is urgent repair of their roads and better drainnage and gutter systems and a chunk of the problems in those hoods in Lagos lsland will be over.. |

Majority wins the vote. Kenya won on this one beating Nigeria 7 to 3 But the writer is unfair.. Some areas in Nigeria are worse than this ones.
