Nice one for the Lagos town

So you had to quote the entire post and occupy a lot of space on the front page just to write two words.

Receive sense!

Downtown Aba is better.

SaintLucia:
Emancipate yourself from poverty mentality. No food for a lazy being like u.

If you've met me before or you know what i do for a living, you won't be quick to judge me.

Wealth do not equate hardwork.

They also listed Peckham London lool

They should go to hell. Tomorrow they'll say Lagos is worst city to live.

I agree with this, anytime I visit Freedom sparky, I always envy the ambience of the environment. This is very correct. Afforestation is one cool factor that contributes to this feat.

chinchum:
I bet some Nigerians are already grumbling, and will be the first to discredit this ranking. Nigerians are the most unpatriotic citizens in the world, and they are readily available to blame their leaders. Sadly Nigerians are a reflection of their leaders.

You have said it all,that's why I gave up on this country,had it been our past and present leaders are our sole problem in this country, it could have been better,but we Nigerians are the biggest problems in this country.

9ja eh!!!

CNN has ranked Onikan in Lagos as the 3rd coolest neighborhood in the world.
At last, Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial capital, has made the news for all the right reasons on the world stage.

A CNN magazine publication, Time Out , has listed Onikan, a Lagos neighborhood, as one of the coolest places to visit in the world.

Only Arroios in Lisbon, Portugal and Shimokitazawa in Tokyo, Japan, were ranked higher than Lagos by the global publication.

50 neighborhoods around the world made the cut.

CNN writes that: “When you're deciding where to spend your vacation, you might think about famous attractions or gorgeous natural wonders.


"But if you really want to get to know a city like a local, your best bet is to look for the neighborhoods where they hang out, where the most interesting new restaurants, art galleries and coffee shops emerge."


In its Onikan citation, the self-acclaimed ‘World News Leader’ writes: “Nigeria's biggest city is home to artists, writers, designers and Nollywood actors. You might spot some of them hanging out in cool Onikan, where "past, present and future collide effortlessly."


“The central neighborhood on the Lagos Lagoon is home to some of the city's most important cultural offerings, including the Nigerian National Museum and Rele Gallery, which focuses on contemporary art.”

Where are the vultures? They are once again disappointed

I doubt they have been there physically.

men jos cold o

The traffic wey dey that Yoruba Tennis club fit kill person.
But the place is cool sha esp Military street, Ajasa....

This ranking is NONSENSE. Manhattan has the coolest neighborhoods in NYC just as VI, Ikoyi are coolest Lagos

O ga o ,isnt it just some weeks ago that lagos was shortlisted as one of the dangerous city. Hypocrite everywhere

flowx:


Oga, which Onikan be that o...?

Why are you lying?

I was also wondering.Which estates?
I am guessing some people,just like the poster you quoted think Onikan is synonymous with Ikoyi or another name for Foreshore estate.
For their information the only landmarks in Onikan are the Museum,Muson centre,Onikan stadium and that now FG guest house or presidential house handed over to LASG.
Where are the estates sited?

Afonja land is best....

I thought I will see nyamiri city in the list?

No

Why can't you just be a patriotic citizen and take the positive review, what in fvcks name is wrong with Y'all,no iota of patriotism for your country at all, always quick to be negative.
