Raydos:Good question, it will be hard under this Unitary system. If we Practice Regional government or have Oduduwa Republic, we can surely build a world class civilisation like that if Tokyo. |

This is what you get when you have visionary leaders!! Enough of the hype, All Lagos State Governors past and present should be killed by firing squad, and those that are dead should be brought out and Re-kill 2 Likes

AustineJohn908: Together we can do it, Do you have any plans on joining politics?? It's better you join politics and change things yourself, Because the way these fools in Government do things is kind of old-school, We need more young people who can think out of the box in politics and finally change the narrative!! 1 Like |

Only dumb leaders think building a city is a rocket science!!, I shouldn't expect anything less though, from people who couldn't provide common electricity!! This is just a random street In tokyo, and it beats the overhyped Lekki, V.I and Ikoyi hands down, Even the so called Abuja 2 Likes

Raydos: Did it occur to your thick head that the reason Lagos is not ''like Tokyo'' is this: Japan - Annual Budget: 1.9 TRILLION dollars Nigeria - Annual Budget: 35 billion dollars https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_government_budget See, instead of posting images of multibillion dollar skyscrapers and billion dollar city centers in Tokyo, and waffling naive, high school dropout idiocies about the 'black race', why don't you spend your time being the next Innoson, or Zinox, or Nord, or Flutterwave, or Paystack - See, these are all Nigerian pioneers in our industrialisation. These are the firms and startups helping to diversify our economy, so that we can generate the sort of national income that can build 'Tokyos'. They manufacture vehicles, computers and pioneer in tech solutions. They, and many other Nigerian firms, will be the industrial giants of the Nigerian and African future. They directly contradict your attacks on ''black people'', and THEY are the capable people we have. YOU are nothing but a worthless, online noisemaking clown who sucks white nuts for breakfast. 2 Likes |

Rossntti: The money that has been looted, since the inception of this Country till now, Is 10 times higher than the japanese budget and could've atleast built us something close to what the japanese have!! But you chosed to ignore that, and scream when the black Race and Nigeria is being mentioned You're so deluded 3 Likes |
Re: Why Can't Lagos Be Like Tokyo? by Rossntti: 8:36am On Dec 12, 2020 |
Raydos: You're a liar from hell. How much has been looted that can possibly be ten times the Japanese budget, ie approximately 20 trillion dollars?? Do you even know how much Nigeria earns per annum? Mumu. Don't go and learn basic figures and statistics relating to the country you're criticising. Expert critic, yet you yourself, you're totally incompetent and clueless. 2 Likes |

Rossntti: Arguing with you is a complete waste of time!! There are countries not as financially buoyant as Nigeria and yet they're doing pretty good!! 2 Likes |
Re: Why Can't Lagos Be Like Tokyo? by Rossntti: 8:54am On Dec 12, 2020 |
Raydos: Do they have Nigeria's population? Name me one country on earth with an annual budget of just 35 billion dollars for over 200 million people? None except Nigeria. The country's No 1 priority is Economic Diversification, meaning that YOU, and all the other loud critics of Nigeria and the ''black race'' need to GET OFF YOUR ASSES, and start something - anything - that can generate productivity and wealth. The onus is on YOU, not Buhari, not other Nigerians, not the ''black race'', but YOU, to start something productive. |

Rossntti:You keep making it seem the annual budget is used to take care of the 200 million people. Nigeria's citizens have had to cater for themselves in providing: security,healthcare(even the President runs to UK and his wife Dubai for medical treatment,portable water,sewage treatment,education,electricity and 95% receive no social security from the government when unemployed. 3 Likes |

You don't need billions and trillions to build habitable cities but visionary leaders. Is there any city in Nigeria that can rival Pyongyang, North Korea, even with its isolated economy? Only when you exploit, and use your resources all by yourself you'll get result. When the federal ministry of works and infrastructures starts building and maintaining critical infrastructures all by Nigerians and not relying on foreign companies, only then shall we have something close to the skylines of Pyongyang, then Tokyo. Pyongyang below. 4 Likes |

Goahead: God bless you bro, That's exactly what I have been saying!! We need intelligent individual who are into science or probably studied abroad to become our leader so as to propel the country to a greater heights!! We need to start getting in the Tech world, That's the only thing can reduce poverty in Nigeria and The Black race entirely!! Take Elon musk and Bill gate for Example!! And even china!! — Only science can save us, Until we start producing our own stuffs, Building our own Skyscrapers, constructing our own bridges, Making our own phones and gadgets all by ourselves, Nothing will ever change!! Now we voted for a leader who doesn't even have a WAEC result, and here we are complaining!! 2 Likes |
