Lagos is great already thanks to the quality of leadership the Yoruba owned city has received over the years. It is not a mistake that it is the only city that made the list in Nigeria.

We should be appealing to the past and present leadership of Lagos to please help us replicate the magic they did in Lagos to other states like Anambra, Abia, Enugu, Delta etc that have been unfortunate to consistently have failures and incompetent buffoons as leaders.
The magic of increasing IGR from the people with higher federal allocation and loans for 70 times growth in the state budget while failing to employ workers to make basic education and basic healthcare free for all children and all residents respectively? Even ordinary pipe borne water is unavailable in Eko aromisa lẹgbę lęgbẹ?

Or what other magic are you talking about here?

Lawmaker scores Lagos Water Corporation low

A Lagos State lawmaker, Mr Saka Fafunmi, on Thursday expressed dissatisfaction at the performance of the state Water Corporation.

Fafunmi, a member of the Lagos State House of Assembly (LAHA), said in Ikeja that the corporation had not been able to justify statutory allocations to it.

The lawmaker, who represents Ifako-Ijaiye Constituency 1 at the assembly, spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).

He said that the corporation had the capacity to generate much fund internally through water rates but had relied solely on government funding because of poor performance.

'' Anyone that is using water will be willing to pay for it; the corporation has not been giving us water.

"Is there any new community that Water Corporation has given water? People depend on boreholes; even government estates have industrial boreholes.

"Why do we keep pumping money into an agency that does not give us the desired results?'' he asked.

He noted that the Adiyan Waterworks was located at Ifako-Ijaiye, where many of the residents had resorted to digging boreholes as a means of getting water.

''A lot of people are falling sick because they don't drink clean water.

''In the same compound, where you have sewage, is where you have a borehole.

''There is no way you can manage the sewage that it will not leak and pollute the water; everyone drinking such is drinking contaminated water,'' he said.

The lawmaker urged the corporation to increase water reticulation and supply to residents.

This argument have been sealed a long time ago. Lagos built by the government and once federal capital territory. Rest.

ogun has water, same as ondo,byelsa, delta, so whats the point, again your lake chad is terrorists infested, same would have happend to atlantic, a mini somalia
Think9ja:
The only reason Lagos will continue to dominate every other place in Nigeria is because of it's access to the Atlantic.

If the north was blessed with access to the sea, I trust the aboki people. They would have crippled Lagos.

But it's a fight they can't even start.

The useless South South states that have access to the sea are using it to smuggle arms and practice oil bunkering

God really save Una with that water weh Una get
