Pictures:Lagos Was One Of The Most Developed Cities In West Africa Before Tinubu by Nobody:
Lagos was a port city, a former federal Capital, a commercial hub.

Lagos as the former capital had the headquarters of all federal ministries in the country. And also housed the headquarters of banks,oil multinational,insurance,pharmaceutical, and construction companies.

One thing majority of lagosians would agree on is the fact Tinubu institutionalized corruption with his 10% commission on taxes through Alpha Beta, which he has been enjoying since 2003 according to former Managing Director,Dapo Apara, in an affidavit before Lagos State High Court and empowering agberos that run the streets of the city.

Who is paying you to attack Tinubu daily? This is definitely more than an obsession. I can bet the only thing you think about daily is Tinubu. He lives rent free in your head.

Lagos was a big mess in the 90's. The military stopped developing Lagos from the 80's.

I am showing you the beauty of Lagos before 1999. You have been lying to Nigerians he was the best thing to happen to Lagos, since Agege bread. When he has nothing to show for his eight year tenure.

I agree the military ruined Lagos. I fondly remember Buba Marwa starting an airline, Albarka Air, shortly after he was military administrator. And Buhari cancelling the proposed Metro Line in the 80's.

Lagos is the former capital and houses the headquarters of every major company in Nigeria. So , naturally it attracts people from every state in the federation.

It is a no mans land.

That is why Ghana is chasing out your kinsmen. You come to my house and say it is a no man's house.

If Lagos state should deport u guys now like Fashola did, you will start crying one Nigeria.

Of course bring pictures from the 70s to lampoon Tinubu. Not pictures of when Buba Marwa was military administrator.

Your rampant attempt at tribalism for political gain is noted
