When you hear Bourdillon, chances are that the first thing that comes to mind is the home of former Governor of Lagos state and Leader of APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He is also known as the Lion of Bourdillon because that is where he lives and the area has long being associated with him.

Bourdillon is one of the areas that make up Ikoyi which is an affluent area in Lagos State.

I took time out to drive almost the stretch of Bourdillon for your viewing pleasure.

Kwantinu celebrating mediocrity oo, no offence to you OP.

Once I heard Bourdillon.... Bullion Van came straight to my mind.

Does Dubai also have the population of Nigeria?

Meanwhile, I am sure that place might look better than your current residence.

A synonym of slum is ghetto.

You claim to understand everything, yet you don't know anything.

Nothing much have changed from the way the white left Lagos. Lagos is living in past Glory, Abuja is far away ahead of Lagos in terms of insfastructural Aesthetic and cool and serene environment

saying rubbish with confidence. Bourdilon, parkview banana island, vi, Gerrard ,Osborne e.t.c was a surrounded by bush in 1990s. Urbanization of that axis started in early 2000. Lagos infrastructures is stretched due to mass migration to the tiny state, despite this fact it didnt stop lagos from progressing.
Except you re mischevious you can't compare lagos of 1990s early 2000s to this present lagos.there is massive infrastructural development compare to then

You can't tell me about Lagos Development
I know what I am talking about
Lagos is supposed to be above where it is today no matter the population. The City represent average Nigeria City without proper physical planning and maintenance

My brother, celebrate your mediocrity in peace.

Just don't expect people who have seen better and know that there's still a lot to be done, to join you.

You see, there is nothing good you can tell those hateful backward village people about Lagos that will be acceptable to them.

It's all about hate what you don't have

Envy go hold some people

excuse me you dont know anything about lagos development by your first comment, lagos state doesnt have enough space and land to cater to for the mass migration .over 5 millions cars on lagos roads, over 21millions people of which a lot re destitute constituing nuisance. There can only be sanity if lagos is decongested.
Other states govs too should work to improve economic activities in their respective states.
Lagos can't continue cater for their people while they collect Abuja allocation without doing anything

Bro it's not just about aerial photos and videos, they will usually look good.
This is about the nakëd eye and also about perception, these are not strange areas to me.

If it's neatness that wants to be hyped, then I will gladly hype. But neatness is not a yardstick for development, we can not kid ourselves.

Even the white elephant project that is called Eko Atlantic is just what it is, a white elephant project.

These things only serve as make-up to cover the rot that is in Nigerian society in terms of overall development.

If anything I have traveled to Most GCC countries, and UK and I can tell you for free Ikoyi, VI, Banana island, Asokoro , Maitamah and Eko Atlantic all have as much infrastructure as you can get in top world class real estate

Either you are suffering from inferiority complex or just an Ipob, regardless you need to travel more

You don't know what infrastructure means, and that's how I know you've not left your village before.

So let's share travel pics if you have left your village and if it's passport stamp and visa stickers you want kindly indicate

Someone just called this a slum. Nawao

Nice one
