The most annoying one is the claim of only one working ambulance in the whole of Lagos when Tinubu took over.What a fallacy as attested to by many who were then or still in health sector now. Imagine a Kanuri man doling out revisionist history of Lagos. The other time it was Jubrin who has now defected to Kwankwaso party claiming Tinubu is a major shareholder in Man United. Racoon: |

donbrowser:It can be painful because "a lie told repeatedly can be assumed to be the truth" as said. Meanwhile, did you read that; "According to CBN data quoted by a journal published in the Research Academy of Social Sciences, Lagos recorded annual IGR of N14.6 billion in 1999, representing a monthly average of N1.2 billion. This is against the N700m quoted by Shettima and the N600m widely circulated in the media. |

trutharena:No wonder u dey support Tinubu. Reading to comprehend is a problem for u. That guy just explained that presently, lagos is the 16th largest economy in africa if it were taken to be a country. And that it's the 4th largest state in terms of GPD, but may even be in practice poorer as it has more mouths to feed. Simple to read u can't.

Guys that calculation that Cairo is $212B, Johannesburg is $131B and making Lagos 4th is not GDP calculation. It is wealth calculation per cities. It's different from GDP. We need to be educated on this Wealth calculation per city in Africa is calculated based on assets in the city, wealth of people in the city etc. It's different from economic output through goods and service trading that GDP represents Please let us all go and research this. Presently Lagos GDP is around appr $150B and that's the largest in Africa for a city. The reason why they normally say if Lagos were a country it would ne number 7 or 5 or 4 is because of the GDP ranking of countries in Africa. Please be guided. |

Agboriotejoye: These figures here are not GDP figures but wealth calculation of African cities. Please research it very well. The wealth calculation of city includes assets, wealth of rich people etc. GDP is economic output through goods and services. Lagos GDP is around $150B now. Check google... 1 Like |

Personally wealthiest is different from richest. Wealthiest city in Africa is Johannesburg based on wealth in the city Richest city in Africa is Lagos based on the GDP of the city 1 Like |

This is a problem of definition of the meanings of BIGGEST and LARGEST. Largest economy is different from Biggest economy. Nigeria has the second largest film industry after Bollywood of India and ahead of Hollywood of America. But Nigeria is not among the top 10 biggest film industries in the world. South Africa has the biggest film industry in Africa. The largest economy means the largest market and indeed, Lagos has the largest economy in Africa, but the 4th biggest economy on the continent. |

Olumyco: Really? Well, go and argue with the Lagos Bureau of Statistics. The Cable got that info from Lagos Bureau of Statistics. According to World Bank info on GDP, Lagos is around 11 in Africa. |

GerraMeh74: I WANT SOMEBODY TESTED,TRUSTED AND GUARANTEED LIKE TINUBU. LAGOS HAS GROWN EXPONENTIALLY UNDER TINUBU AND HIS DISCIPLES WITH ALL THE DISCRIMNATION AGAINST IT.NIGERIA WAS/IS RICH BUT SUBSEQUENT RULERS INCLUDING OBASANJO,JONATHAN,BUHARI HAVE BROUGHT IT DOWN WITH CORRUPTION AND BAD MANAGEMENT. LAGOS CONTINUES TO GROW EVEN WHEN ZOMBIES SHOUT OF CORRUPTION. IF TINUBU IS CORRUPT AND HIS CORRUPTION IS GROWING LAGOS,THEN NIGERIA NEEDS THAT KIND OF POSITIVE CORRUPTION. LAGOS DOES NOT TAKE REVENUE FROM ITS SEAPORTS,AIRPORT OR EVEN THE CUSTOM BUT IT IS GROWING RAPIDLY. YOU SAY POPULATION? KANO HAS LARGE POPULATION TOO SIR. IT IS PRUDENCE,IDEAS AND GOOD MANAGEMENT.ABOVE ALL,THE GOD GIVEN GIFT OF MIDAS TOUCH.TINUBU DID IT WITH MOBIL,LAGOS AND THE PEOPLE HE HAS TOUCHED. IT IS A GOD-GIVEN GIFT...YES NATURAL. HIS BUSINESSES ARE FLOURISHING.HIS STATE IS FLOURISHING.HIS PEOPLE ARE FLOURISHING.LET NIGERIA FLOURISH.VOTE WISELY. ...TINUBU WILL DO IT FOR NIGERIA. TINUBU IS OLD BUT WHAT WE NEED FROM HIM,IS HIS IDEAS AND MIDAS TOUCH. TINUBU IS TESTED,TRUSTED AND GUARANTEED. BUHARI HAS TAUGHT US LESSON TO LOOK AT ANTECEDENTS OF INDIVIDUALS BEFORE VOTING FOR THEM. TINUBU COMES A DISTANT TOP AMONG OTHER ASPIRANTS. 1. JOHANNESBURG (SOUTH AFRICA): $276 BILLION Fittingly, Africa’s richest city was built on gold – on the Witwatersrand Gold Rush of 1886, to be exact. It’s the commercial capital of South Africa and the wider region. View of Cape Town’s City Bowl from Lion’s Head, with Signal Hill and Cape Flats in the distance Image: Martin Power, CC BY-SA 3.0 2. CAPE TOWN (SOUTH AFRICA): $155 BILLION The city with Africa’s highest prime residential rates, at around $6,100 per square metre (similar to DC or Berlin) also is an important hub for financial services, retail and tourism. Rooftops of Cairo Image: Luc Legay, CC BY-SA 2.0 3. CAIRO (EGYPT): $140 BILLION Real estate, financial services and construction are some of the key sectors in this city of 9 million, the biggest metropolis in the Middle East.

LAGOS (NIGERIA): $108 BILLION It may no longer be the country’s capital, Lagos still is the gateway for 80% of Nigeria’s exports – and the centre of the burgeoning film industry, a.k.a. Nollywood. At 21 million inhabitants (2016 est.), it’s Africa’s largest metropolis, as well as one of the world’s fastest-growing cities. Indian Ocean beach at Durban Image: Brand South Africa 5. DURBAN (SOUTH AFRICA): $55 BILLION Subtropical Durban is South Africa’s third-biggest city (after Johannesburg and Cape Town), second-biggest manufacturing hub and biggest port, as well as a major tourist destination. Durban’s Gateway Theatre of Shopping is Africa’s biggest mall. It has 12,000 parking slots, 390 stores, 90 restaurants, more than a dozen movie theatres (including an IMAX theatre), a skate park designed by Tony Hawk, and the highest fountain in Africa. ..... https://bigthink.com/strange-maps/richest-cities-in-africa/ |

Racoon: The IGR fact check is clearly flawed. Tinubu became the Governor of Lagos State officially for the first term on May 29, 1999. He therefore was at the helm of affairs for 7 months in 1999. To use the total tax generated in the year and the resulting monthly average as a basis to establish the monthly tax generated before Tinubu took over is clearly faulty. Using the 1998 total tax and resulting average is a better way to establish the average monthly tax generated before Tinubu took over. |

Agboriotejoye: 100% True. You just took the words out of my mouth. Everybody knows lagos as the commercial capital of Nigeria, so increase in the economy of Nigeria would directly increase the economy of lagos the most. The Reforms of the FG under Obasanjo made lagos and not the druggie. |
