The whole of Lagos have always been a shiiit hole. Whether main land or island

Went there as a Bini boy last year. In fact it was the day that tanker explosion happened
And i must tell you Lagos is overrated. Too dirty and noisy.

When i entered Abuja same last year November because i wanted an instant passport because there was no booklet in Edo state that was when i knew the difference between Abuja and Lagos

It was even more obvious to me that Edo was actually bigger than Lagos. It took like forever to leave Edo land when you are going to Abuja. All those Edo north was like forever. So Lagos is just one small shiiit hole place that is overcrowded.



Abuja is too good to be compared with that shiiit hole called lagos
oboy na the one u know u talk ,u no Sabi lagos at all dats why u can talk like dis ,u are just a jjc passing by.oh God na edo state dis guy dey compare with Lagos ,abeg make u see insult o

You come from outside Lagos and start telling where to rename in Lagos.

Are you aware that Old Lagos stretched from Ikoyi to Yaba. Yaba and Ebute Metta were in Lagos but Lekki Phase 1 down to Epe was under Western Region and not part of Lagos.

When you don't know things like this, you're bound to make ignorant comments.
First, it was a JOKE (but I guess the laughter emojis was too subtle for some), but you don’t have the foggiest idea where I’m from.

Nonetheless, Northern Nigeria and Southern Nigeria used to be different protectorates, and Southern Cameroon used to be part of Nigeria, blah blah blah. Life EVOLVES! Quit being a prisoner of the past. History is supposed to be a platform for a BETTER future, not a handcuff! SMH

if you can survive in Lagos mainland, there is no where in the world you cant survive in.

and for those who came visit and lash out because of the heavy competition and traffic, nobody force you to come in the first place. you can always relocate to Togo. so I heard the traffic there is smooth.

Helo, the money spent on the island are made from the mainland.
In fact, some of those cars and houses you see on the island are bought with the blood of mainland..

And while still at it. Today’s Suleja was the original Abuja. Yet, calling it “Abuja” today would be inappropriate branding.

Similarly, while New York City consists of the 5 boroughs, only Manhattan is referred to as “New York, New York” or “The City [of New York]”. So quit boring us with primordial (and frankly bothering on bigoted) anachronisms and get with the program of proper/desirable branding. SMDH

It's obvious you're a non-lagosian

Ikeja is not the capital of Lagos.
Lagos is the capital of Lagos.

I understand you use to be taught all those state and capital shits but it is wrong.

Ikeja ain't a city, Lagos is the city. Ikeja is under Lagos.

Are you living there to show that you are among, I mean the wannabe?

I wonder what's the hype about VI,Lekki,island, even the banana island.


We have other part of Lagos billionaires reside, not only lekki,ikoyi and v.i.
that's a big lie. No billionaire live in the mainland and I am confident of that. No silly billionaire will even branch a carwash in mainland. Best thing about island is safety.Go through all the kidnapping cases on Nairaland and tell me where they all happened

Define the word capital city?

Someone who grew up in Lagos is telling you something but of course your low IQ and high pride won't allow you receive enlightenment and correction.

It's alright, I won't stress my fingers on an illiterate fowl like you.
