the next thing is Asiwaju is the best thing that happened to Nigerian politics, they will even compare him to the great sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, unfortunately for them (APShit supporters), Ibadan was the political headquarter of Chief Awo's operation and the Ibadan of then was like an organized city even in Europe but here we are in modern day century with all the tax, and other means of generating huge revenues Lagos State is churning out this is what the political enclave of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu can offer to the world cry cry cry cry just watch the zombies will soon chant Eko o ni baje oo o they will avoid this beautiful thread like a plague.

That Ikotun area should be detached from Lagos abeg.

I visited Ikotun last week to see a colleague and i was amazed by the number of Human Beings on d road, infact the population of people walking from point A to point B was far greater than the cars on d road.. chaii see human traffic and go slow, i think for me that's the most populated place in Lagos and most likely in Nigeria










Or Even Africa sef undecided

AN OPEN ADVICE FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T BUILT THEIR OWN HOUSE.

If you are still a tenant, here are the MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER BEFORE RENTING A HOUSE.

* Good Drainage (The best time to source for any property is during rainy season)

* Security

* Nearness to major Bus Stop (Easy Accessibility)

* Good Road Network

* Steady Power and inflow of water (borehole or pipe borne).

* Closeness to Market, Malls Gas Stations.

Re: Gafaru Street In Lagos Flooded After A 12 Hour Rainfall by davodyguy:
Rubbish and nonsense.

Cities like Lagos are found in different continents and it's not unexpected.

Couple of cities around the round suffer similar fate, even in the united States.


Many people would start talking nonsense now, cos of their ignorance and little knowledge about their environment or environmental science

As a coastal state, the city of Lagos lies on the belt and essentially surrounded by water. Just dig a hole, all you see is water, water and water. It can never ever be completely prevented cos of the fact that Lagos is practically under water

Many areas have been left flooded due to ceaseless rainfall

Some low lying areas of the city are prone to flood and also, Poor environmental practices such as dumping of waste in drainage often lead to flooding


But the beauty of that of Lagos is this, as soon as the rain stops, go back to that same spot 3-4 hours thereafter, you'll be shocked to see the waters drained off completely. That's the essence of good drainage systems
