This is why your leaders don't take you serious. An average Nigerian youth spends more of his just create out something useless..

California is a state, not a city. However, Los Angeles (California) is there.

Behind all those cities are

1.Strong and corrupt free municipal governments.

2.Taxes, heavy taxes. Those cities tax everything. In Nigeria? They wanted to start charging tenement taxes in Abuja. I doubt up till now that anyone has paid. Also in Abuja, four years ago there used to be something called parking ticket...until someone went to court and got it stopped.

So how do you expect Nigerian cities to raise money for improvements.

3.Nigerians LOVE electing people who pay them to vote. And when those people take power...they calmly recover their costs, and do nothing for city development.

4.Nigerians that refuse to pay taxes for the Police to function well ? Nigerians that refuse to pay DISCO bills because they are too expensive? Nigerians that throw rubbish everywhere ? Garbage in...

If you want your city to be a SUPER CITY....you have to pay the taxes, bills, etc for it. I used to live in one Birtish city that had a good transport system....and their council tax was about N40000 naira. If they start charging that in any Nigerian city...people will be out on the streets crying about poverty...the tax gets abolished...then suddenly at Christmas or Sallah, these same people will go and slaughter ram of 80000 or more.

Good things are not matter of I dash una.

7 Singapore

Finance and shipping reign supreme in this Asian city-state. Singapore's container port is one of the world's largest. It is also a major hub for the oil industry — almost half of all oil consumed in the world passes through Singapore.
Is Singapore a city or country?
Re: The 10 Most Influential Cities In The World by 9jaRealist: 11:28am On Jan 14, 2019
Obviously, a SUBJECTIVE list. Nonetheless, cities like Dubai, Shanghai, Berlin, Frankfurt and Moscow should round up the Top 15.

Singapore is a City-State (i.e., a city and a country).

Hong Kong used to be the same, until it became part of China in 1997.

It's no surprise that New York, home of President Donald Trump, Wall Street, and the United Nations, is viewed as the world's most important city.
