I've been to few states in nigeria and I've heard so many comments and stuffs about lagos from people who haven't been to lagos.
So I've decided to highlight some few facts about lagos....







1) A PLACE WHERE BEING WISE IS JUST NOT ENOUGH[b][/b]
There are so many wise and smart people on the streets of lagos, slack a little bit and get left far behind.. you need to step up your game to succeed

3) TRUE FRIENDS ARE HARD TO FIND

YES! It's every man for himself, it's hard to meet people who wanna help or see you grow, if you find one, consider yourself lucky

4) THE YELLOW BUSES( trademark)
Funny as this may sound, the yellow buses has a lot to it, the drivers,conductors,agbero,alaaru,hawkers in traffic etc all belong to thi group, I'm sure most lagosian who use public transport must have had one or two encounter with these people.... be smart when dealing with them

5) MONEY IS VALUABLE
Now don't get me wrong, money is valuable everywhere but I think it has more value in lagos.... you see married men chasing bus conductors for 10naira change, every denomination is important... the struggle is real

9th,10th and 11th characteristics of Lagos.

It was founded by the Portuguese.

The Brits built and developed most of it.
