11Ebiscoo: Let them blame Saraki for that too When indeed charity begins at home! Is Lagos not the headquarters of APC Fashola was the best thing that happened to Lagos state! Ambode needs to eat the humble pie and borrow a leaf from Fashola! Cause aside the roads which is now taking donkey years no other thing seems to be working! This is not the Lagos we saw under Fashola! I hope it will not relapse to what it use to be Something needs to be done urgently! 39 Likes 5 Shares |

Only a fool will attempt to denounce that fact... The report was even generous to place Lagos 3rd worst because if looked at deeper Lagos is even worse than Dhaka and Damascus pound for pound ... Lagos is a city of 20 million inhabitants with no single access to public potable water ( just imagine ) , very poor access to electricity, one police man to 1500 people ( this makes Lagos the most under policed city in the world) , 70 percent of the population still live on unplanned mud pans and swamps like reptiles , 60 percent of Lagosians have no access to toilet and poo in dugout holes of polythene bags ( shot put), 70 percent of the available roads in Lagos are either underdeveloped or in some rumbly state ... the truth is that Lagos needs a special intervention status from the Federal govt of it will ever grow to be the Eko Miami we all dream of 118 Likes 9 Shares |

I believe it ooh, Lagos has the worst traffic in Nigeria, Standard of living is crazy One of the most dirtiest cities in the country so what is so called working 'Ambode ' doing about it. I told you guys ambode keep doing the more you look the less you see. How do the mayor of new York City control the most populated city in the world a rhetorical question. 26 Likes 2 Shares |

First find out what parameters the FIU adopted in reaching their conclusions before critiquing the rankings. From what I have read about the rankings since they were first announced, they were created as a way of providing a quick shorthand reference and source of advice to travelers who are heading to a destination with which they are unfamiliar so that they can know what to reasonably expect. The organisation behind the generating of the list are not politically motivated, neither is the list intended to be a prestige list. In fact a City like New York which one would have expected to be in the top 10 is ranked 57th on the list. One thing I know for sure is that Lagos is nowhere near any of the cities in the 100 of the rankings such as London, New York, Paris etc. Lagos has poor public infrastructure, poor security architecture and suffocating overpopulation. 28 Likes 3 Shares |

Pls what's Falana saying...the problem with Nigeria is that often we refuse to accept the bitter truth about us. The UN uses time tested indices to make its assessments. But it doesnt take much for an illiterate that has been to even Yaounde in Cameroon to say Lagos is a worse city...for instance it's almost 2months now since the so called LAWMA last evacuated our waste. Btw i don't know why a place with no water electricity and many other amenities is still being considered in UN ratings. UN should just forget about Nigeria. 29 Likes 3 Shares |

The Problem with Lagos is POOR and CORRUPT LEADERSHIP with deeply rooted vested interest! The interest of the political godfathers who are milking the state dry! With the amount of Money generated internally and available to the State Government, Lagos should by now be competing favorably with other elite cities. The Government awards contracts that are so inflated and the house of reps are complicit because no one can question the Governor. Lagosians deserve more than they get! 18 Likes 2 Shares |

Hmm Falana complaining about Lagosians not hearing from their elected representatives yet these same Lagos talkative attack assembly members from other states who decide to be vocal in their duties, calling them names like "twitter senator" . Lagos people, it's bad enough you're living in the third worst city in the world but please like the amiable lawyer has said, hold your elected officials to task and stop poking noses into other peoples legislatives Haba !!! 8 Likes |
