Enemyofpeace:The same lagos where millions of yorubas are living in poverty, in low paying jobs, face me I face you, under bridge. Every little corner, road demarcation has been turned to toilet, rubbish dump, open gutters where aboki cart pushers dump their refuse. How come these millions of Yorubas are not living your so called lagos dream. Abi your lagos dream means living in poverty |

Enemyofpeace:Simple question you cannot answer. Show me statistical data to prove your point. Try and be sensible. |

casualobserver:Again you are only dense in thinking. There is no data that shows this to be authentic. It is just a sensational headline. Try and be sensible and stop embarrassing your lineage. |

hafeeanubasy:It was never more established after Tinubu, stop being dense. The truth here is that Lagos is even worse with Tinubu and after it. Ask you fathers who lived in Lagos in the days of yore and if they are sincere with you they will tell you how Lagos has sunk. |

hafeeanubasy:When I look at the bolded I just laugh at how dense you are. People like you need to be flogged once in a while every morning so that you will have sense. Why would I have issues with Tinubu's name being mentioned? Of what use is it to me. We are in a democracy and it is pertinent that you tell the truth to power. Now in your ignorance and dense frame of mind, you assume that I am not happy because Tinubu's name is mentioned. |

obyno82:This is the problem I have with Nigerians, must you be a master in every subject? Is it a crime for a grown man to admit he doesn't understand one of the many sciences that we have on this earth? Is everyone a doctor, can everyone be an economist? GDP based on PPP is an established subject in economics, some of us went to school and studied pure economics, it's not a crime for you not to understand it just the same way I don't understand the exact methodology of how a mechanical engine works! Anyway, if you choose the path of knowledge instead of hate, go back to some of the guy you quoted posts, he explains GDP so simply that anyone with an earnest mind can understand. |

Goodvibes007:Is actually 2000 trillion. So Lagos is now richer than the whole Nigeria. Well done ooo. Yet with 95% living under UN poverty line.. Hahahahahah |

So Lagos accounts for 10% of our GDP PPP? Nice to know. |

obyno82:Being paid for what? Study Argentina's economic crisis, then you will know this government has taken the right steps. Jonathan and Buhari were your enemies but you didn't know. As an aside, the Nigerian economy has started growing again, it's not getting smaller |

obyno82:Like I said the problem with people like you is you hat once you face one direction, there is no fact no credible source that will make you see reason. I gave you 2 credible sources, even posted snapshots because I know people like you don’t verify links if one just posts the link. If the world bank is not a credible source then I rest my case! |

horlique:You are dense.. This GDP ppp, but you are too dense to read it. You and your brother that posted the Wikipedia page, that clearly stated that Nigeria's gdp,ppp based is over a trillion dollars, So Lagos 259 dollars gdp ppp based is not strange or out of order..they should be doing far better than that |

Brendaniel:For projects such as the ones below which are more sustainable and more effective than paying subsidies and propping up the naira with dollars which leads to round tripping and wild exchange rate differential “The World Bank has today approvedAnd what's more debts are being paid but not with about 90% of revenue as the case used to be |
