That's quite shameful.
Why can't we have other commercial centres in other parts of the country?
Greed and foolishness.
we have other commercial centres
But Lagos is the way it is due to lack of planning
Lagos was planned the very wrong way.
that is Lagos problem
if onitsha, or Kano was designed like Lagos
it would have been the same palava

Yes, I agree that Lagos was not planned well. But I don't agree that there are other equally notable commercial centres because almost all home and foreign establishments seem to have their location is Lagos first before and other state(s).

The plan from the beginning would have been not to make Lagos the main commercial centre.

every country has it's Lagos

It's new York for America

Toronto for Canada

London for England

Paris for France


Tokyo for Japan

Beijing and Shanghai for China

that is just the way it is

Warri and PH had potential , but the fools there allowed their greed and foolish short sightedness destroy their place
now businesses have fled, or are fleeing such places to Lagos that they consider safe and free.


That is just the problem

Greed was mistakenly encoded into the blackman's genes.

if those in Lagos make the same mistakes as say those in warri and ph made
there willl be a mass exodus as well.
to maybe Abuja or ogun state.

traffic jam is the cause of this kind of lifestyle, in europe you can criss cross among countries to get to your work station. Bad leadership.

After I saw where one slay queen was buried recently, I thought to myself that life is vanity.

If she was told this is where she would be buried, I am very sure she would have disagreed.

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.
I don't know if i can live there.The stress over there can reduce your life expectancy.

which plan, Lagos get plan? Lagos grew out several pre colonial settlements, there was never any conscious effort to plan a city and the subsequent population explosion is overstretching the poor facilities to its limits.

When u are in Lagos u will think life starts and ends in Lagos but when God want to remove u from bondage and let u live in other states that is when u will realised how bad Lagos is. Lagos is not for everyone, u works from dusk to dawn everyday from Monday till Saturday, from January to December and u asked yourself by December 30 what your achievement is all about u will hardly point to something tangible

That is how it is in most capital cities here in Africa. our own is worst because heat and mosquitoes didn't allow most of them to sleep at nights since there is no light. I still don't know why Nigeria can't have 24hr light from least in major cities.


Looter PDP And lazy APC parties are all failures.

That is the question I have tried to find answers to, but unfortunately, none so far. When one complains about it, some cretinous fvcktards blame colonial powers even after 60 years!

This is the real test of governance, the welfare of the people, that no government at any kevel over any period of our chequered history has been able to better since the British handed over our destiny.

This is not living. This is merely existing. Even animals sleep at their leisure. I have never seen a lion asleep on the trail of an antelope or a cow asleep at the behest of a herdsman. This is tragic.

Answering the call of Nature is must! lipsrsealed work is a mordan day slavery! Nothing good like working up by 9am or 11am in the morning and go to work! Only entrepreneurs will know what I am saying undecided


you ain't an entrepreneur


entrepreneurs work extra, they stay back after everyone is gone , even go home with work because of fear of their businesses falling

Even during holidays most entrepreneurs would work because they believe an or potential client might come and the Hope of making extra money.

entrepreneurs work and are always thinking of how to make businesses grow and stay afloat, they fear falling sick,they believe they are the only one who can handle it.

even when an entrepreneur got capable hands he checks or wants to be involved , unless the business was inherited.

,, During vacations they are usually scared.


Being an entrepreneur is extra hard work, a level higher is never enough ,we want to get extra higher, the sky is just the starting point

Baffles me how the danfo drivers manage. Up as early as 4am and we all know they don't sleep early cheesy cheesy cheesy In the morning, they are also high up after gboming tight grin




AutoJoshNIG:
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.
