What is beautiful about a city that is almost being taken over by hoodlums. Go to most roads, you won't find street lights. Everywhere looks phucking dark , no security , dirts everywhere. Market women almost displaying goods on the roads, no coordination , no nothing.
google the rate of Hoodlums activity in The USA and you would be marveled and FYI USA and most first world country still have slums

Self deceit is not good ooo.
Is it up to 1/10th of Lagos that is this good... hell no.
Yes it is okay to celebrate little wins and progress, but don't get carried away, there's still much more work to be done.
Lagos is a very small place and I can mention places that are beautiful, more than 1%.
Yaba
Surulere
From CMS down falomo
Ikoyi
Vi
Lekki
VGC
Some part of Ajah.
Ikeja.
Maryland.
Even your state capital is not as beautiful as this places in Lagos.

Yes. When was it created by d Lagos State govt as "Lagos city"? When did d Lagos State govt officially designate Lagos mainland and island as "Lagos city"?

It seems you are a stranger in Lagos. Lagos initially comprises of the islands, Surulere, Yaba, and ends at Jibowu were the Western Region began.

It was controlled by the Federal Government before some parts were added to to form Lagos state.

Ikeja, Ojo Town, Badagry, Ikorodu, Epe etc were never part of Lagos before the creation of Lagos state.

My mistake about Ikotun being part of Ojo but Egbeda is part of Akowonjo, and we also have Akowonjo in Akowonjo.

Egbeda is like a town while Akowonjo is like a village.

I have been to Luanda and Windhoek, I can boldly tell you I love the environment far more than Lagos
now you have said what you suppose to say which is that you love the place more, not that it's finer

just like some people love calabar more than Lagos because of the calmness but everybody knows they can't be compared

Stop denigrating your country because of
your own inadequacies, your greatness is
measured by the strength of your nation.
Only cowards trade their nationality
because patriotism runs in the blood.
Great countries are not made from the
wishes and dreams of a people but from
the compromise and sacrifices of a
generation in history. Great countries are
made not with leaders whose patriotism
overwhelms their personal interests when
its economy is developed by
entrepreneurs and its researches and
findings are dedicated to the
advancement of human interest and value.
Great countries are products of intellectual
and political ideologies, devoid of
primordial sentiments but engaging in
creating a philosophy of national dogma
and character. Until the day we know that
we are the government, the country can
never work for us.

Lagos metropolis is different from lagos state.. Those areas u mentioned are not the metropolitan areas.. same way Nairobi and Accra has their own rundown areas even those areas are not bad.. many African cities are actually worse than those areas

Lagos, including its suburban areas are what makes metropolitan. If you want to compare, compare Lagos with Joburg, Cairo, Nairobi or Algiers. That's what we should compete with. Not Accra .
This useless political ruling syndicate has been hindering its progress since 1999.
Imagine a cosmopolitan city like Lagos with no constant power, metro line, functional water system and good road network.
