You leave your house by 4.30am. You go still jam traffic for iyanaoworo and MUSON centre. You leave your office by 9pm you go still jam for Iyana Oworo and Ojota.

Same people same days same roads same routes same suffering. Nothing changing, just the dates on the calendars

You can't blame them my brother. They usually get home late and leave early the next morning. Sometimes I feel like Nigeria is the purgatory for sinners from another planet.

Someone once said that with the hustle and bustle in Lagos, you don't need to visit a gym, because life in Lagos is a physical exercise.

In order to earn a living, millions of Lagosians depart their homes before the break of dawn and return late at night.

This unhealthy routine makes it hard for millions of Lagosians to meet up with the recommended sleep duration.

See the National Sleep Foundation’s Recommended Sleep Duration HERE

Indeed, this sleepless lifestyle can have an adverse effect on one's health. Perhaps, this is the reason why life expectancy keeps dropping in this part of the world.

According to recent WHO data, the life expectancy in Nigeria is, unfortunately, the lowest in all of West Africa. According to the data, the average life expectancy is around 54.5 years of age, with men living an average of 53.7 years and women living an average of 55.4 years.

The easiest way to notice the sleeplessness of Lagosians is during their commute in commercial vehicles in the mornings.

Majority of them would be founding sleeping.

This isn't funny.
This is a result of accumulated stress. Most of these people are hypertensive and they don't know and they keep dying everyday.
It's a pity

True talk. I knew this when I was trying to meet up for a particular screening. So I had to wake up very early in the morning however I was stunned when I saw bunch of people trying to catch up with Danfo that ply their route around pass five in the morning. Shout out to Lagosians. It's not easy mehn. My sleep duration Is six hours every blessed day self. It's well.

That's quite shameful.
Why can't we have other commercial centres in other parts of the country?
Greed and foolishness.
