Lagos was built by the Yorubas with the hard earned money from exports from their cocoa farms. The airport and the sea port you are using in lagos today was built by Awolowo with money from cocoa. Yorubas never needed oil money to progress. And we still remain the envy of other nations worldwide for a lot of good reasons.

You know nothing about Lagos maybe because of your age.
Instead of disgracing yourself, why not meet your elders to tell you about Lagos.

If Lagos is ranked as a city, No state in the south east is of standard to be ranked because they are all shitholes.All your so called city in the east are actually big villages.
In that report they ranked only Lagos and Abuja because they are the only cities they can rank in Nigeria

It's a thing of pride that Lagos is ranked alongside Algiers etc. in a list that includes London, Copenhagen , Milan, kuala Lumpor, Vienna, Sydney etc.Just like in Forbes list of richest people im the world that has Elon Musk as no 1..person wey him name dey no 200 for the list go happy na.
None of their cities are ranked because the world see them as villages..Imagine in 2023, no skyscapper or world standard stadium in the whole of south east..What parameters are they going to use to rank them?
