Local flyover, the old bridge is more beautiful. 60yrs bridge is more elegant, more beautiful than 21first century bridge.nobody should disturb me, its my opinion
MSGAMBLE9: Isn't it a foolishness of high depravity if you think Lagos could stand on same pedestal with cities like NY, London or Paris.
Okoro man claiming Funso is typical of low self-esteem Easterner.. some of una claimed Lagosian like una forget una Papa village name for East.
Yeye dey smell.
is it not foolishness comparing a state and an economy that was built with money from other regions, a collection of effort and resources of all Nigeria to other states.gorrilla is wiser than you
MSGAMBLE9: Wouldn't have replied you buh the Funso part got me...
An Okoro man wan claim sense of belonging just like Bola Shagaya decided to change her ibo name to Yoruba has many of una kinmens now does in SA and Lagos..it reeks of low self-esteem and inferiority complex.tua i see foolishness of the highest level
For Lagos to even be among the conversation is a progress whether 171 of 172 or not..do you know how many Cities that is in UK and US alone not to talk of worldwide per Nigeria level... I begi...!
Yeye be like an Okoro claiming Omoluabi cos of Low Self-Esteem... Imagine the Inferiority complex, Okoro have suffered.
Every little thing will be overhype, what other states do quietly, Lagos will hype it to high heaven to hypnotized their gullible citizens, delta state built 4 Universities with out making noise.
MSGAMBLE9: if they are cursing, is it not better to move to other state or region go do business if they can't cope, buh no they know what they are making daily can't be replicated elsewhere.... even Soludo wan higher revenue.
I know there are businesses everywhere buh what about vaibility...who go leave West go invest in region with lowest disposable income or 4 days working week region.
If e easy you self try am now. it's is a no brainier

2. LASG's expenditure and debt is substantial and growing, but lacks effectiveness
Effective governance is measured not by how much in taxes and fees have been levied and collected from the people, or by how much Government spends, but by how much the people's education, healthcare, transportation, housing, security, employment and other components of standard of living have improved, as a result of the expenditures and actions of their Government over time. This is where, in my view, Lagos falls short. Over the past 24 years, LASG has massively deployed current and future societal wealth and increased its borrowing without substantial overall advancement in human development indices and living standards of the people.
Lagos has consistently remained near the bottom of the scale on independently compiled "quality of life" rankings of major cities of the world. For example, Lagos is in 171 position out of 172 cities ranked in the 2022 Global Liveability Index rankings of the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) which assesses cities on measures like infrastructure, education, health, culture and environment, stability etc.
Imperatives
Governments are defined by their commitment to institutions, rules and values as expressed through their actions. Inclusive governments foster growth and broad-based development while extractive governments produce deepening inequality and under-development and impoverish broad sections of society. Not surprisingly, extractive Governments also tend to borrow more. In my opinion, the Government of Lagos State must transition from its existing, extractive model of governance. This means dealing decisively with its self-serving hegemony which some call "godfatherism", the activities of corrupt elements in public office and the civil service, pervasive conflicts of interest and dominant vested interests, all of which have created a wide gulf, over the last quarter-century, between Government's use of the people's resources and what the people of Lagos really need. If we fail to do this, it is certain that our resources will continue to be misdirected, diverted and misused, our future will be mortgaged through ever-expanding Government borrowing, our development over the next generation will remain tragically stunted and poverty will be widespread.

Beolly: Only SS have oil and that's the reason they are always dragged into Biafra by fire by force.
the oil in south East can develop the whole of south East if the thiefing sw and north remove their hands, then add the gas which the S East have in surplus, Dubai will be a child play, you people are dragging us back joo!
mumu if someone snap agege and video it , you will think the whole Lagos is a village, world bank is an outskirts of owerri, show us ikenegbu, aladimma, works, owerri maincity centre, wetheral, then leave the old city and show us new Owerri that can compete with Abuja in terms of planning and exotic buildings.seeing is believing
Airlord2030: lol.. When e be say na owerri girls dey enter portharcourt to come hawk their hairy toto.
unknown gun men is better than cult men.port Harcourt that you can Bleep mother and daughter, tell me something else. Selling toto is an old business, even in usa and Europe
it's a lie or you are biased or you don't like good thing or you hate beautiful environment, or just pure hatred.because if one hates his wife, even a sweet food is bitter
Workch: Port harcourt is the most developed state capital in Nigeria that I know. There's nothing much in onigbongbo than mobolaji Anthony, omole is just an estate in agidibgbi, Anthony is not part of Ikeja, Anthony is in Kosofe LGA, Magodo is in Kosofe LGA on the other side of Lagos Ibadan expressway way, there's nothing in oregun than kudirat Abiola way and mobolaji johnson. Allen is just alen Avenue.
Port Harbour is way bigger with better infrastructure than Ikeja. Enugu and Owerri are way bigger and has better infrastructure than Ikeja. A good part of ibadan even have better infrastructure than Ikeja.
If I should rank in other:
1. Port harcourt 2. Kano (based on what People say) 3. Kaduna (based on what people say) 4. Enugu 5. Ibadan 6. Owerri 7. Ikeja 8. Uyo 9. Calabar 10. Ilorin (I have been here and this city is nice and organize). I have been to Akure, Osogbo and Abeokuta, Ilorin is way better than those places.
in the sixties and seventies it was ok and well planned but now it is a jungle.
