The dumbest thing these haters do is, they post pictures from Kenya, Rwanda or SA to prove that they are better than Lagos without any reference to the ugly places in those countries, but when we post beautiful pictures from Lagos, all of a sudden they start talking about the not so beautiful parts about Lagos.

This is how shallow and elementary-minded they are..

Silly hypocrites and hateful human beings.

There are better and good looking places in Lagos than some places in Miami, no place on the surface of the earth is 100% beautiful, this is common sense and the last time I checked, the topic did not say the whole of Lagos is beautiful, maybe it's ignorance and lack of reading and comprehension skills on your part, don't blame the OP, blame yourself for your inability to properly read and comprehend.
I don't know why you're feeling hurt. I live in Lagos. So don't come here and be posting pictures which focuses on one particular place and tell me it's becoming Nigeria's answer to Miami.

There are better and good looking places in Lagos than some places in Miami
Yeah just a small section in Lagos which you've already shown in your pictures above.

the topic did not say the whole of Lagos is beautiful
Yeah, it said it's becoming the Answer to Nigeria's Miami. Which I've already proven to be false. Thank you. cheesy

....even though this joker posted a bridge picture to rubbish Lagos, now singing a different song after correcting him with the picture of the best bridge in Nigeria.

Yes, we are glad that this bridge in beautiful Lagos is so wonderful that movie directors must show the bridge for aesthetics and credicility.

To God be the glory.

God Bless Lagos state.

Is there any other bridge they can show?
Abi na only one bridge dey Lagos? grin grin grin grin

Before Tinubu, Lagos was ungovernable, dirty, poor, and left for dead, the IGR was N500 million per month, but in record time with his ingenuity and smart policies, Lagos state is now generating N42 Billion per month, this single achievement allowed Fashola Ambode and now Sanwo Olu to have funds at their disposal and sound masterplan with work with.

If not for OBJ, politics of destruction and underdevelopment that castrated Lagos state's efforts, Lagos state should be way ahead, even self-sufficient when it comes to electricity because Tinubu built the 1st PPP in Nigeria/271MW which is still operating till today but was sabotaged by OBJ and politics of destruction.

With Tinubu's formation of credible agencies like LAWMA, garbage disappeared and LAWMA is the best waste management agency in Nigeria today, just like all the agencies he created.

What's greedy about him, only you people know.

E be like say you no get brain. Tell me where in the world is perfect? I have also lived, travelled far and wide. I will send pictures of any developed countries in the world with undrained drainages, poor roads and waste management.

I’m not saying we cannot improve but it takes a while in a country so constitutionally wired and concocted with the use of quota system to reduce the speed of development in the SW.
are you donehuh

The Op's post and narrative is flawed because he mentioned Lagos. If he had mentioned Lagos Island, there'd be no issue. But since he's talking about the whole of Lagos but only showed one part of Lagos and then went ahead to ask if it's Nigeria's answer to a Miami or Florida, then it makes no sense. Would his topic still fit if he actually posts major parts of Lagos? Those pictures are nice but it hardly reflects on what most parts of Lagos actually looks like.
So next time read to understand instead of rushing to reply.
These pictures below are scenes you'll see 30 minutes after leaving the Island.
Miami my ass.
Lagos is different from Lagos state.

What's my business with other bridges?

My business is the beautiful bridge built by the Lagos state government, the Lekki Ikoyi bridge and still the best bridge in Nigeria, not the one you cluelessly and hypocritically posted.

Again, we than God that our Lekki Ikoyi bridge is so beautiful that move makers must show it and keep showing it to the world as a source of pride.

The joke is still on you.

Now you're emotional, but let me advise you if you really want to know what life is in African countries, ask the citizens of that country and not what google says.

There are lots of insurgency going in Africa as we speak, east Africa, central Africa and west Africa, even SA has banditry as there are places no one dare travel through.

I understand the frustrations we are all going through in Nigeria and we all feel it but to think other African nations are better than Nigerian is a big fat lie, may be our politicians only steal more as we have more money being a larger economy than most African nations.

no be only Nigeria jagajaga for Africa
Any one can say another person is emotional. That is foolish and leads nowhere

There is a limit to what any person can know about what is going on in his house not to talk of his country
If you ask 100 Nigerians about Nigeria you will hear 100 stories so asking citizens is just self indulgence.
Ask Femi Adesina he will tell you a different story from Nnamdi Kanu


Being a larger economy is meaningless. America is the largest economy does not make it better than Iceland.
Wyoming is not California
Lagos is not Zamfara

Nigeria is such a vast country and very few if any know Nigeria.

Nigeria overall for most people is a shit hole

Gabon is a much better place than Nigeria

In fact there are few places on earth that Nigeria is better than

Nigeria Jagajagaest

Lagos is a beauty to behold but inept tribalism of some people here will blind Thier eyes to the obvious truth
This has nothing to do with tribalism. I'm neither igbo nor Yoruba but you won't expect me to agree with you comparing a Toyota camry to a Bugatti. Lagos is pretty dope but NOWHERE near miami. It isn't even halfway as dope as Johannesburg yet stupid zoo elements like you overrate it so much. You never see any American spamming pics of Miami everywhere, comparing it to heaven, it's just we black men. Imagine if Africa, most especially Nigeria, was the most developed country in the word, I sure say we nor go let people here word again

The Topic did not say Lagos is Miami or near Miami, it says Nigeria's answer to Miami.

You yorubas are backwards to an extent it beggars belief. Your reasoning alone is akin to those of early men. Neantherdals to say the least. You allowed who to settle where? Is Lagos or nigeria yours? Look at his false sense of entitlement. "Allow to Settle" You must stop that ish you are smoking. You want "one nigeria"? Then you have no right of claim to either Lagos or Abuja, after all, we own over 70 percent of C of O's in both cities. You can claim Ibadan, Oshogbo, Akure, who cares. Those are your civilized cities. grin grin You do not own Lagos, so stop laying claim to Lagos that you didn't build.
Lagos, a land that was built with money from the oil from Biafraland and recent development being built mostly by Igbo and you have the audacity to utter the words "allowed to settle" You must be a fool. The place you call hamlets in Igboland are far better developed than any city you yorubas can boast of except Lagos which was built with Biafra's oil money and Igbo investments of today. You haven't even started to cry. Your only saviour will be if Biafra is restored, then you can lay claim to any part of Lagos or Abuja that Igbo properties are not sitting on. Ungrateful elements. We developed Lagos and Abuja and instead of being grateful, all you can come upo with is hatred and jealosy. Thunder fire you there. Fool!!
Have you seen the links to cure your ignorance? grin

Lagos already had electricity, roads, trams, railway, banks, sea port, airport, telephone, bridges, etc before 1914. How did you develop Lagos? grin

Your name is Aliyu and that qualifies you to be fulani or fulani sympathizer. Maybe you don't know that your so-called Lagos was built with Biafra's oil money and in the same Lagos, we Igbos own over 70% of the properties. FACT!! So who actually built Lagos? Our oil money and our toil money. The reason why Lagos belongs to us until further notice, meaning until after Biafra is restored. grin grin grin grin grin grin
Yes my name is Aliyu, but are you aware there are more tribes in the North than just Fulani right? And not everyone is part of a hive mind.

Why Lagos then, you hate it, but yet invest so much in a territory that's not yours, you insult the place, then boast about owning it.
And SS don't identify as Biafra nor igbo for the most part, they are the main source of Nigeria's oil money and region that gets the short end of the stick.

For the record, Yorubas do not applaud prodigal children & people who point to their inheritance with the left hand. Ain’t you supposed to be ashamed of yourself? Please show the pictures of the best city in your zone. What data do you have of holders of CofO in Lagos? Or you just summoned the figure in your bitter envious mind? Let me even assume without conceding that you are right, is your generation not prodigal & cursed to even pride itself in developing another man’s land while there is no commensurate development in the land his ancestors gave him? Only a bastard beats his chest on how good he is at building other people’s lands while his father’s house lays in ruins and is severely errosion infested.
