Someone asked on the other thread why most pictures of Lagos shows pictures mainly from about just 25% of Lagos, the island and Lekki axis, meanwhile the real Lagos where the Industries, seaports and Airport are located is the Mainland, it also has the largest Lg (Alimosho) in Nigeria....more than the population of some states in Nigeria.

The policy of the then western region government to develope greater Lagos away from the FG controlled Lagos (basically Lagos Island/ikoyi & VI) made them carve out industrial areas and GRA's on the mainland, reason why therr are no "GRA's" on the Island axis except the recent one "Abijo GRA" by the LASG.

Not forgetting the "ends" of Ikorodu/ Epe and Badagry..i present to y'all pictures of Lagos without the Island axis with brief summations too...enjoy.

ok

Famous third mainland bridge...the main connecting road to the Island from the mainland and vice versa

Going to the Island from the mainland for folks that live on the mainland and work on the Island is a journey of a thousand miles indeed...but Lagosians are kinda used to it...people wake up as early as 4 just to get to work as early as possible...Ikorodu Road is another connecting road usually taken

No Place like Lagos in the whole of west Africa!!

Talkless of other states like the local P.H

Lagos and hype

Apapa is the port city of Lagos, all the ports are located in the axis..Apapa is just adjacent the Lagos Marina on the island, apapa si surrounded by the lagoons and creeks of Lagos...the roads used to be death and frustration traps but in recent times both the LASG & FG have been doing something to alleviate the situation

Those Calabar and Enugu babes be like







I go like visit lagos oo


Kenya Babes can like Lagos!

Ikeja is the capital, the busiest Aitport is also here plus the street know for nightlife on the mainland, Malls, hotels...

wow so beautiful

More pictures of lagos mainland

Lagos is beautiful, till you get to the inner street in the city, poor waste management, unorganized market, dirts littered arounds. Lagos govt just make strong legislation on waste mngmnt in the city

I love Lagos. Ajah/Jakande axis, so sweet to enjoy life with friends, but for now Abuja rocks.

generalbush:
