Stop this hype Lagos is a dead city. A city that was once a place to behold when we were young has been reduced to same level or worse than all other Nigerian cities.

Who do you think you are trying to deceive? That picture of Ajah that was taken when the bridge was new, right now the place is a pigsty and there is still severe traffic.

Why do some igbos hate Lagos.

On this site it is a split between saying they developed Lagos and it would be nothing without them and saying it is a slum because they don't live there or their business there folded.

Propaganda... These pictures aren't reflective of the true state of Lagos. Lagos has become the dirtiest and most polluted state in Nigeria.
All these roads are always dirty and traffic-ridden.

Why don't you show pictures of agberos and danfo drivers fighting on the road or keke napap with bumper guards scratching cars on the daily... Show us the drainages blocked with dirt with no LAWMA staff clearing them for months... Flooding nko?

Show us Ikotun, Iyana Ipaja, Ikeja Along, Agege, Mushin, etc. They represent 80% of the real Lagos!


Show us your state progress in the past 20years

Go into the inner roads in every local govt in Lagos and show us the infrastructure there. Lagos is making too much money to not fix roads in the inner communities. It's very annoying

because they are not in control of lagos.

its one of the reasons they started a civil war to try and take control of all the regions in Nigeria even though they were doing okay in their own region...

its also the behavior some humans have towards others they feel are doing better than them

Sharp guy. Simple, short and spot on. Igbos are very covetous and egotistic people. What they cannot own or control (Lagos) and those they cannot dominate(Yorubas) they will always run down.

Not true. Do you know the recurrent expenditure of Lagos that has been swelled ridiculously because of her huge population primarily due to influx of immigrants from all corners of Nigeria?

They want the State more than anything else in the world but cannot possess her. Lagos politics and administration is fully in the hands of Yorubas and this will be causing terrible pain for many Igbo.

If you know how the covetuous mind of Igbos work you will understand that many are in severe pain as they feel Lagos should have an Igbo Governor and should be under their control because of all they have "invested" in the State.

Well only an Igbo would make this statement in relation to Lagos. For its challenges, Lagos remains by far the best State in Nigeria.

The smallest State in Nigeria with a very unweildy population of 20 million, swollen to that hideous extent by millions of immigrants from your SE States, is still the most sophisticated and best run State in Nigeria.

Meanwhile we have States like Bayelsa with small population and 13% extra derivation that are the true pictures of backwardness.

In fact most SE States are garbage and ode to misrule, incompetent administration and clueless governance. Yet you guys only remain preoccupations with talking about and attacking Lagos.

It shows your motivation.

Tell us only one state that is good or one can write home about in the east.Your leaders even confessed that SE is gradually becoming a desert.

Only Ibadan city in SW is moré developed than the entre SE that has numerous slums and IDP camps taking over Igboland.
Anambra is dead and owes the highest external debt which it cannot pay in 100 years because it sucks FG feeding bottle for survival.All the
SE states are also dead because they cannot exist without the FG's feeding bottle
.

These are the things they should be worrying about.

Despite their home State and region being in severe trouble and disintegrating under hideous misrule they will still wake daily to shout Lagos, Tinubu and Sanwo Olu rather than tackling Ikpeazu, Obiano and other misrulers they parade as "political leaders"

The average Igbo person is an ingrate - they prefer to see Nigeria burn than to make any meaningful progress. The only solution is to grant them their Biafra or to restructure The country
All the coordinated attacks against Tinubu is duly noted by Yoruba’s worldwide. I would hate to witness a genocide in Lagos but there should be limits to provocations

If there are 20 slums and ghettos in Lagos (as obviously there are slums and ghettos, as this is Africa), just Know that these other states would definitely have more.

All over the world showcase their good part of their cities. there are lot of slums, dirty places and some nasty things you will never imagined. go to YouTube, you will see a lot of videos of dirtiest/ slums in america, europe and other countries.

when you see some good things just appreciate it and ask for more not just complain of everything.

I like your sincerity from the first statement.

Of course, we always need to hold our leaders accountable because if they fail to perform, they know we'll vote them out.

I can guess you go out a lot, you'd probably have seen that there's so much traffic on Lagos roads nowadays. That's partly because of the rehabilitation, reconstruction or palliative work going on in some of our roads, for instance the Ketu-Mile2 route where they're using concrete on the roads.

But let's tell ourselves the truth, the government cannot do all roads at once even if they have the means/funds to, the state will literally shut down due to holdup.

You may also realise that the LSPWC has woken up to their responsibility of fixing potholes. You mentioned Aguda, you'll be familiar with Enitan street, the LSPWC have been there like twice to fix the bad portions on the road. That's responsiveness. They've done same in several places around Lagos too.

Coming to how much Lagos realised everyday, I think most of us make this mistake thinking there's money kept somewhere that the government has refused to touch to fix the roads. Remember Lagos has a large economic sector, therefore you can't afford to neglect some sectors in favor of another. You can't say because you need more money to fix roads therefore you want to abandon Tourism. My point is that so much money you think Lagos has or generates daily is being competed for by various sectors.

I won't hold brief or defend a government that performs badly and I understand the pain motorists and Lagosians go through in some areas as a result of bad roads but what I won't accept is that as we clamor for our roads to be fixed, we vilify those who want to highlight the positive side of Lagos for people to appreciate how far we've come.

To the areas you've mentioned, I've followed LSPWC schedule on road palliatives and I've seen them fix some roads in those areas. They haven't done all. Also, you may have read from few days ago when Sanwo launched 377 ward projects and most of it were road projects.

This is how Lagos roads will gradually be fixed. While we want our roads to be fixed to have a smooth driving experience, we should also allow those who chose to launder the image of the state in a positive way, because this thread won't and many more of it won't stop the government of the day from completing other road projects scattered across the state.

Remember, these roads you saw in the first page where once bad roads that turned out to be this way.

Have a nice Sunday sir smiley
