Is Kano State More Populated Than Lagos? by TruthinAction: 7:02pm On May 29, 2022
I have stayed in Lagos and I served in Kano. I do not claim to know every nook and crany of both states. But I believe there are Nairalanders who know better. I am worried because I kept wondering why Kano state has 44 local governments and Lagos state 20. In addition, in my opinion, Lagos is far more populated than Kano but figures we have put both states at about the same population. Even at that, why would Kano have more than twice as much LGAs than Lagos.

Please, I need your objective opinions.

Population density might be the reason you feel Lagos is more crowded. You might be right though, figures up north are most likely not accurate.

Lived in Kano over three years after service. Lived in Lagos for a while before travelling out. Lagos is faaaaaaaaaaar more populated than Kano. Kano city center alone is having more local governments than Bayelsa state! Meanwhile, it's Bayelsa the Oil producing State that helps fund Kano and her litany of unproductive Local governments! I have also worked in a typical Kano LGA as a corper for over a year and I can tell you that all they do in these Local governments up north is to share allocations from the center amongst themselves. Nothing else! The military did wonders for northern Nigeria.
