Lagos should get rid of its putrid latrine smell......y'all still dumping raw sewage into the Lagoon in 2025..........what's this affinity with poo! Build a sewage treatment plant on the outskirts.......turn your poo into fertilizer and recycle the water for other uses........na wa o!

Factcheck0001:
so Igbos Dey pay tax in Lagos but their governors said paying task is an herculean task to an average Igbo

Top 50 businesses in Lagos Igbo no dey, u think say development na by selling fake chargers n gadgets?

You guys are always too harsh. Can't someone even live in blissful delusion in peace again? The clear fact is that Yorubaland has been very good to Ibos for several generations, but typical little man's pride no go let Nna gree

With 80% Igbo contributed development.

Stop this lies!

Government played no roles in this. They only taxed us dedpite not providing the enabling environment. We light up our streets, sink our own boreholes, even had to install our own transformers then tarred our own streets and provided security. It was individual efforts

Omoawoke:
Stop this lies!

Again stop being mean. If you take delusions away from a little man' then what is left?

Look at them with your 2by2 sector or prostitutes sector please which one.

Who verified these claims?

Cairo has no verifiable GDP. When I ran a search on google, it returned Egypt GDP as $396bn. The report above failed to mention Cairo GDP.

I don’t think there’s a way a country’s GDP will be lower than a city inside it.

A search on google reveals that California has a GDP of $3.9trn while the US has a GDP of $27.72trn. California is a city in the USA and we see that the GDP is far lower to that of the country it’s in.

buoyed by Federal monopoly of seaports and multinational oil companies, Lagos should be number 1

Nigeria's GDP is 199 billion dollars
But someone want me to believe Lagos GDP is 256 billion dollars? Lmaooo

The propaganda is now too childish no effort again

Nigeria GDP is over 560 Billion.

I suggest you take a refresher course in economics and learn the difference between nominal GDP and GDP ppp. Even our nominal GDP is far above what you quoted.

Nigeria’s GDP (PPP) is over $1.4 trillion according to the world bank’s own figures and other reputable sources.

This is oloriburuku Tinubu era, so make una no dey put picture of when criminal Buhari was the president...

Na Ogun go kill Sanwoolu and all his cabinet members together!

Criminal bastards...

You're not successful as a leader if your vision is not passed on effectively to leaders after you. Tinubu envisioned a great Lagos, and successive administrations have done so well by pushing to achieve that vision.

If you think Igbos develop Lagos, you're right in your own right. But you must admit that for Igbos to come and 'develop' Lagos, the environment for Igbo businesses to thrive was created by the leadership of the state. If it was easy, ask Igbo leaders to create such in one of its cities.

I've said my own. If you like mastubate on this comment, I won't reply you! I have cum in peace ✌️

Good news, but we know why.

FG assistance on a massive scale, - even aboki administrations invest in Lagos to keep the yorubas happy; 99% of Igbo rich people use Lagos due to infrastructural logistics.

massive marketing by fg&sg&people (yorubas and every other);

then the unnecessary hyping, above marketing.



But it is still not freshening up, over hyped. Even this result might be potential gdp. No be nigeria and fraud again? Paperwork doings.

They're rooting for tinubu again ahead of 2027 despite his woeful performance. Awon propagandists . Let's assume the GDP figure was real. It's still an individual effort. Government provides nothing as they only tax us. The land they're supposed to give Dangote considering the tax he'll pay to state, they still collected millions of dollars from him and cleaned mouth, in a place they called FTZ, just imagine. Dangote had to expose them during the time he's being frustrated ahead of the refining of his patrol by the corrupt fellow who owns the malta blending facility. We tar our streets by ourselves, install our streetlight by ourselves , provide security,sink our own boreholes etc. They'd collect taxes, land use charge, radio and tv levies with nothing to show.

I was in Thamesmead, UK ahead of Christmas to see a friend. I noticed some people were outside cleaning the river and trimming the flowers in an estate. I asked my friend, who pays them and he said he didn't even know. He said they came because Christmas was approaching and the estate needed to be prepared ahead for xmas, that the government sends them every year to do that, apart from the monthly cleanup. Here, they only collect our money with nothing to show.

Anyway, na those outside lagos the propaganda go catch as usual. He should count lagos out of the states he'll win.

The Crouching Tiger About To Pounce, On the Cusp of Something Special

This is so heart -warming. One, it shows the innate resilience of the Nigerian economy. Two, the economic reforms of PBAT are yielding fruits.

Lagos was 'lured' into the Nigerian project because of its development not otherwise. In fact, Lagos economic prosperity informed in no small measure the almagation of Nigeria in 1914, when much of Nigeria was collectively no more than a village square. Lagos had wheeled away from the pack in terms of development.

Another thing the report showed is that people's purchasing power has improved, and things are looking up gradually.

To those guys that opined that Nigeria's GDP was 199b USD, u need to know what GDP really means. When Nigeria rebases it, it will be somewhere in the north of 500 billion USD.

It's not surprising that Lagos accounts for more than half of our GDP. For centuries, this small island has always a tour de force in economic terms, long before pretenders to the throne of Maximus unconscionably claimed they developed it with their vacuous commercial efforts.

Factcheck0001:
the first picture is that of grok disputing Igbos age long lies of developing Lagos

The same Igbos who developed Lagos but once it's turn to develop their region cement finish

The second one is the top 50 companies in Lagos n tribe of its owners n Igbos no dey dere at all

Statistics don lie

So how did Igbos develop Lagos when facts says otherwise

Don't mind them, they don't understand the meaning of development. They actually thought buy and selling of goods is the development but forgot it's the actual production. Yorubas produces and Igbos was used to market the product. If you don't give them products to sell, they are finished because they are not productive.

Stupid figures.

Smartcitizen:
YES on track of suffering and pretending and most of your people committing suicide.


Hypocrisy is in the blood of an average Yoruba person because if another person from another region was the president and doing this, most of you would have been making noise and shouting like a wounded monkey.

You are very terrible people.

There you go again just like I predicted. Who are your people committing suicide?
Jonathan was borrowing to pay salaries and subsidies, Buhari was not only borrowing, he was also printing money so that ignorant people like you can buy rice at #18k per bag and fuel at #180. Little did you know that you were eating your future and those of your unborn children.

You may like to read up on Argentina and Lebanon to see where Nigeria was heading before hard decisions were taken by this administration. Now, the economy is growing again and it's unlikely that Nigeria would default on its loans or go into recession at all in Tinubu's first four years. Even inflation has declined. Our global ratings are going up again.
But like I said, someone like you would never understand since you can't see beyond the next plate of food

No wonder our brothers from the east see it as their small London. It's the prayer and dream of every igbo man/woman to visit Lagos before dying

Lagos State will always swear High than any State in Nigeria 🇳🇬

Nigeria is a rich country that will never get anything right.
