The government can do better for them. It can also be turned to a tourist destination bro.

.

Remember visiting some few times with my mom. She had a former church member of their church who was a tailor living there. The woman will always claim she loved the community while I never did because you have to park your car, take a bus and a canoe to get to her house.
She would gladly serve popo garri and those tiny dishes (I don't know what they are called).

Ovokoo:
I visited MAKOKO for the first time a few days ago and it was an eye opener.

Makoko is a community in ya area of Lagos state and a third of the community is made up of a floating slum where mainly Egun people from Badagry and Benin Republic live.

The first few minutes was awesome with the introduction and that background music but thereafter, everything look like nothing special and non interesting

The inhabitants can swim.

I mean... It's bad enough that it's a slum.

It's also floating on a river of filth and human waste.

If a fish doesn’t survive on the water then the place is uninhabitable, diseases upon diseases

HONESTMD:
The inhabitants can swim.

Of course they can... But, swim inside that filth?!!

Imagine rushing to work and falling in there.

Shall we talk about the sheer number of pests and disease vectors like Mosquitoes!

God1000:
that's how you see it man

don't mind him.u r healthy,u r healthy.if u like stay in glass house.disease will still come.good nutrition is the way to good health.

Zeebuy:
Those clowns screaming "go back to your state", na here most of them dey live

are u sure there is internet in that area.most people living in that area, don't have time for internet.

Does the place smell?

what is beautiful Nigerians and pretence sha, how can a country so rich, yet its people so poor, and Nigerians just to make Nigeria look good would be calling mediocrity a beautiful adventure

Floating slum... sounds sexy

People are living in filth, in the midst of plenty resources......nothing beautiful about this life they live. But yea, quite a revelation

Worrisome !!!

Enjoy, but some places are dangerous. So enjoy but be careful in your choice

most people living there there aren't poor as u think, they literally doesn't wanna pay bills like house rent bills, etc. most Beninese and togolese are like that, stingy people who make money in Lagos but don't wanna spend it here except their country

Paystack:
This is beautiful?


A Slum?


Houses literally built on top Gutters?


They literally live where people defecate.



A normal human can't spend a night in that pit of hell located in Lagos without developing permanent disease.

Really
A white man lives there
A professor
Stop Talking

Some of them do not look poor.
Why did they choose to live there or ehy are they still there? Are the houses free?

Where do they get clean water for bathing or cooking?

Too many questions I wanna ask.
