60% of tech startup that got funded had died. Notable mention are Edukoya, Bento Africa, 54gene, Pivo, Lazerpay, Dash and most recently Okra

It is safe to say most are getting the funded to enrich themselves.

The list does not make any sense what are the parameters.

Bengaluru placed at 15 is next to the main silicon valley in term of employee count or turnover of companies , Bengaluru city alone generates 100 billion in GDP output .

Lagos is really trying.
Its inhabitants are the most elite in the country.
They always find a way out of every economic challenge that is bedevilling the country without relying too much on the government of the day.

And this is the more reason, why I want Ibadan to be granted a state too. So that this melting pot of industry (Lagos) can be extended all the way to that huge and hospitable city (Ibadan) in order to spur Nigeria to new heights of developmental achievements.

Former alaafin of Oyo Arisekola Alao and others did Ibadan a very bad thing by blocking the creation of Ibadan state by Abacha....If all the former regional capital became a state as kaduna-kaduna,Enugu-Enugu,why can't we have Ibadan-Ibadan...and Ibadan is even more qualified

Well, this isn't just a "Lagos thing" as you find this as a global phenomenon especially in this AI race. Investors are putting money into diverse AI products with a potential and alot end there but the margin of profitability far outweighs the loss so they will keep at it!

What are the criteria used for measurement? How can a city where educators are required to maintain manual records, adhere to outdated teaching methods, lack laptops for teachers and tablets for students, and have no internet facilities in schools, yet can afford to sponsor an electric boat race, be considered? Please highlight two visible indicators.

Fastest growing, do you understand what it means and how it doesn't mean it is largest?
