Keep it up

TheGift:
Ok.

There are no merits or demerits, per say. It all depends on the individual their preferences and peculiar circumstances.

For me, some things I hate about the island these days though are:

*Its getting more and more crowded than when we were growing up
*Traffic not only because of the crowd of residents but for the many visitors who come there for work and play
*Fake life; many pretentious people, living in poor overpriced accommodation, just to be able to say they live on the island.
*The water especially in Lekki axis has smell and taste, and you have to spend money on drinking and bathing water. I can’t even use my filter for it.
*Flooding during the rainy seasons and it is no respecter of locations as floods regularly hit Lekki, Ikoyi, VGC, VI and even banana island. And it’s not surprising because a lot of the island is sand filled land. Where I live on the mainland it can rain for a whole month and there will still be no flooding. The ground is high, the are wide drainages and the entire suburb is surrounded by a canal where all the water drains
*Related to the above, I suspect that there will be a major flooding or tsunami event, sometime in the near or far future and places like the island, which have been massively sand filled will be worst hit. As far back as the early nineties I remember an over flowing of bar beach that covered Ahamadu Bello Way and got as far as 1004.
*I also personally like where I live and work on the mainland cos I am 15 minutes from the local and international airports as well as Lagos Ibadan on the very rare occasion that I need to head out by road.

I hope with this few points of mine, I have been able to convince you why, I a former islander chose to become a full time mainlander.

Please Note: what works for me may not work for you.

JoyousFurnitire:
Sir, how would you advise one go about it then? Considering the traffic which is something to take note.

The person here will have to catch a bus as early as 5AM and then get back home around 10PM (sometimes past 11PM) every day.

Won't that affect his performance/quality of life?

wait until the Gov auditors come to audit the company, it will look like a joke. The money those guys ask for bribe is not a small thing.

This is the future of Nigeria if we don't get it right this time.

I'm just thinking how we are going to pay for all the billions of dollars Buhari borrowed during his tenure..... Money that is being currently looted with no tangible investment to repay in the long run.

Little wonder why World Bank stopped loaning money to Nigeria, and we decided to turn to China.
