Hahaha....fear God o, na bike you dy carry...no be Lagos where I dy move up and down everyday.

If you say during lockdown I may agree with you coz I've not been in town since January

It takes you nothing to go to BRT and ask them how much they are charging. Why will I Like for something that is very obvious.

UcheforGod:
[b][/b][sup][/sup][sub][/sub][url][/url][i][/i]Hmmm, never knew that Lagos state is the smallest state in Nigeria by landmass

Small but mighty

kulekaa:
Oshodi to Ikeja used to be 100 when things were still normal, with d increase in TF everywhere now it should be around 150 to 200

Oga U never comot from house since the Lockdown ended. What are you even saying, You need to see the high number of people that were trekking Yesterday from Oshodi to Ikeja even down to Agege because of high Transport fare.

OJURONGBE1:
You be jolly just come truly ..No offence
100 naira bus would have taken you to Maryland b/stop where you can easily hop into BRT or Yaba/obalende bus which is 300 naira max.
When you alight at Obalende, there are array of buses plying Lekki/Law school/Sandfill/Jakande to Ajah route for 250-300 naira (may be slightly higher due to this pandemic but it can never be more than 500).
Return journey is quite easy :Lekki-Oshodi, tell the driver you'd alight at Anthony , cross over to UBA under bridge and take Ikeja (Allen or Ikeja under bridge for 200).
Next time ask people around you how to navigate journeys, it will save you time and money.

Are much away that BRT from Ajah to Oshodi is currently 500. I am not a JJC my guy, my profession have taken me to Al the nooks and crannies of Lagos. I know exactly what I am saying. Recently transporters are exploiting Lagosians unduely.

Davash222:
2500 from Ikeja to Lekki phase one
Seems you used Caverton private Jet?

If not more than Self
From Lekki to Oshodi is 700, from Oshodi to Ikeja 400 no be 1100 be that, I entered 200 again down to my house no be 1300 be that. This is just for returning home I don't want to go into how much I spent going

Nice dogs
How much can I buy one?

This is more than evil

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF LIVING IN LAGOS

ADVANTAGES
Lagos has a huge Market for your Products and Services. Infact someone said that if you package a refuse bin and sell it in Oshodi, you will sell off everything in a matter of hours , if not minutes. That is to tell you that there is a market for any kind of products and services you offer.

Lagos has the best nightLife: If you are the type that never sleeps, you love clubbing and flexing then Lagos is your home because as the "City that never sleeps and the headquarter of Entertainment in Nigeria, Lagos is a City filled with fund, coastal Tourism activities, Clubbing, patties and all Kinds of Events.

Lagos Supports and Nurtures Small and Medium Scale Business: Lagos helps you to nurture your Small scale Business. The City has all it takes for an Entrepreneur to succeed, from vibrant Startup EcoSystem, access to finance, grants and high profile events to different Networking events, master classes and exhibitions to mention but a few.

Lagos has many Job Opportunities: Although Lagos is no longer Like before in terms of Job Opportunities, when compared with other states, Lagos is still ahead.

There are many Business Opportunities in Lagos: Your One week Stay in Lagos will bring thousands of business ideas rummaging your brain. The City is full of business Ideas.

Lagos is a City of the Hustlers: If you are born a hustler, there is a high tendency for you to survive in Lagos. If you are hardworking, Lagos is the best place to be.

DISADVANTAGES OF LAGOS

Cost of Transport is on the High Side: In Lagos, if you are not careful you may end up working and have transportation gulp up your earnings. Just yesterday I spent around 2500 naira just to convey myself from Ikeja to Lekki Phase 1. Just imagine someone spending such an amount of money everyday to convey his or herself to Lekki everyday. By the end of the Month he will be spending close to 70K only on Transport. Now you understand while people are working in Lagos, yet they have nothing to show for it.

LAGOS TRAFFIC IS A NIGHTMARE: Lagos is a City where you can stay in the Traffic for many hours. Have you heard the Story of Funke who went to drop her Aunty who is based in London at the Airport. While Funke was still in traffic, her Aunty called her that she had successfully arrived at London. That is a tip of an iceberg on how horrendous Lagos Traffic is. When I first Entered Lagos, I was to attend an Interview at VI, then I was residing in Ojo. Since I was ignorant of Lagos traffic, I woke up around 6 O'clock to prepare just like every other person's living in other cities will do. But did you know that singular act cost me that Job which I was pretty sure of being selected for because I arrived at the interview venue by 12 pm.

House Rent in Lagos is on the High Side: Unlike other Cities in Nigeria, Lagos is the only City where you will pay for agent and agreement as equal or sometimes higher than your House rent. Still don't know why the state Government is not rising up to criminalise such evil perpetrated by Landlords and agents. You will hear them saying 50, 50 for a self Contained apartment of 120,000. Another thing is that finding a decent house might be a little challenging to you unless you have enough bucks or are ready to live in the satellite towns which will be far from the City center. Another thing is may God help you not to enter the wrong house which Lagos is mostly Characterised with.

There is No fresh Air in Lagos: With a population of about 30 Million people crowded in the smallest state in Nigeria by Land mass. It will be a miracle for you to have fresh air. If you need fresh air in Lagos maybe you might just relocate to Ikorodu or Epe part of Lagos which is currently being hit by high waves of urbanisation.

Lagos is a Dirty City: Although the present Government is trying all it can to keep the City clean but that does not take away the fact that Lagos is one of the dirtiest Cities in Nigeria.

There is too much Noise in Lagos: Yes there is too much Noise in the City. From the Danfo drivers and conductors who rant like a Sallah ram, to Agberos who are vociferously constituting nuisance with their cracked voice, indeed Lagos is very noisy except you live in quiet Estates in luxurious neighbourhoods.

Connecting with the Rich in Lagos is a little bit hard: Unlike in Abuja and other Cities in Nigeria where you can always run into an influential person and you connect with them and possibly exchange contact. That will only happen in Lagos by Devine connection from above. Everybody in the City is very careful because of "Onye ma Onye" (who knows who).

FINALLY
Before you make that move to either relocate to Lagos or to relocate out of Lagos. Just sit down with one bottle of cold Trophy and a plate of Isiewu or Delicious Nkwobi and ask yourself some mind boggling questions that will enable you to make a good decision you will never regret.

Our own Second Niger bridge comes to my mind

Rape is Evil
I strongly condemn it
I also condemn girls who will give consent to have sex with a guy and later turn it to rape.
In this case let adequate investigation be carried out. If the guy is culpable let him be dealt with according to the laws of the Land

Nigeria Police Why nah
Must everything be about Money

People are heartless, how can you terminate a life you can't create. Look at how they have brought anguish and pain upon this family.
The killers of this Innocent girl will never know peace in their life.

May God grant her Soul an exnternal rest.
Wanted to tell my people about Investment Opportunity but let me reserve it for another day to give the slain Uwa her last respect.

Hmmm

Time to submit my proposal

The school is cool just that unlike Unilag it is mostly populated by Yorubas

Great school with powerful Alumini

Great school
