₦airaland Forum

Hello Nairalanders,

Oshodi is always alive — a melting pot of people, hustle, noise, and energy. I recently passed through and took a few snapshots that I believe capture a glimpse of this ever-busy part of Lagos.

The busy streets, market hustle, yellow buses, and the everyday Lagos vibe. Can’t upload everything here (Nairaland has limits).

📸 No fancy edits. Just Lagos as it is.


What about you?

•When last did you pass through Oshodi?
•What’s one thing you’ll never forget about that area?
•Has Oshodi changed for better or worse?

Oshodi is not what it used to be. Thanks to Fashola

Dirty environment. Come to Port Harcourt and see neatness.

Hmmmm. This reminds me of this poem in primary school 🏫🏫🏫. ' sing a song of people, walking fast or slow'

Sing a song of people
Walking fast or slow
People in a city
Up and down they go

Sing a song of people
Walking fast or slow
Sing of city people
You see but never know

The first and the last stanzas. Not sure I can recall all the rest. Well, maybe most of it I can.

Eko ni baje Lagos leads others follow we love our Lagos like that.

Lagos State needs a massive urban renewal programme. Many parts of the mainland are due for demolition and rebuilding.

Fashola and Ambode have transformed Oshodi. Sanwo-Olu and his successors should focus on other areas of Lagos, including Mushin, Ebute Meta, etc. Lagos is too rich to have too many slums.

hmmm this is the Heart of Lagos
Oshodi the Heart of Lagos

Baddest photographer. Well done for this..I actually love photography or anything artistic

daily route to office, lagos state is really trying lesser congestion though still hectic, Arena Market, ladipo etc no place like lagos abeg

I have not been to Oshodi for a decade or more. It used to be rough, tough, and dirty.



The modern park as viewed from YouTube has really changed the outlook, and I think the mannerisms of the touts and railway marketers.

Even from pictures, Lagos looks too stressful. I prefer Abuja anytime, anyday, and twice on Mondays.
