But it's about the best for the average Nigerian.
Opportunities are far and few in the other cities in Nigeria.
So, the pressure remains centralised in Lagos, hence the 'badness'.

Lagos is the worst state to live in. Terrible experience in Lagos.

This was my comment below b4 this report

TheKingIsHere:
Lagos state is truely a disgusting place to live.

See how dirty the water is. angry

How is that even possible, when we have poorly developed areas like warri, umuahya, onitsha, uyo, akwa, birnin-kebbi, yola, bauchi and co.

Only a fool will believe this nonsense.

They are very right.

Lagos is a shitty state. I have people living there and they complain bitterly.

There is difference between a state that has the resources (lagos) to be world class but failed in every sphere to be so and a poverty state like yola

well, that's hard to believe. Worst in what aspect, anyway?

Go to Lagos and see things for yourself.

I was highly disappointed when I visited Lagos.

Dirt, filt, abokii shiit mixed with gutter water plus tanker and trailers parked everywhere.

The reason I don't believe these so-called news is because they are void of facts. How can Baghdad, Juba, Tegucigalpa, San Salvador, Mosul and other murder stricken cities be better than Lagos?

That's how one nonsense published that Nigeria has superceded India in poverty (!?) It just doesn't make sense, Indians are well over a billion(1.3 billion) and 60% of these population don't have access to toilets which is around 780 million people. So if 780 million people don't have a basic structure as a toilet, how on earth does Nigeria a country of 200 million people have more living in poverty? angry

Seriously, I smell a big conspiracy.

Anyways, Baba Buhari till 2023

So you no know the meaning of percentages? See how you dey reason?

E no hard to know the 15m people wey put us inside this APC mess wey we dey today

I have been visiting Lagos in the last 10 years from UK and there have not been a better lagos than now. Improved Electricity, low crime, more organised transport , good infrastructures with Rail system developing by the side. That report is rubish. We know where we are coming from and our leaders should continue the good work

I am here suprised too. For one thing, all the police road blocks are gone

Sometimes, I begin to think there is some racist elements when they are grading Lagos and other African cities as the worst city to live in. , For a city in of one of the most corrupt country, it is quite impressive that Lagos still manage to work despite boosting a huge population. Some cities look very nice on the outside, but if you venture and live in those cities at night you go know e.g Chicago.

Tell us the areas where Lagos is working?

You mention the huge population but failed to mention the huge money Lagos gets from tax alone.

Bros calm down. Do you know that if 60% of India,780 million people have no access to toilet facilities, it doesn't mean they are worse than Nigeria. About 70% of Nigerians have no access to toilet facilities. It doesn't matter if the 70% represents only 130 million people. Thanks
