Rwanda, Uganda, Zimbabwe and many other African countries now have clean and well planned cities.. Lagos too would have been in that league but for influx of illegal migrants and economic refugees who have no business being in the State.
The slow thinking leaders in Yorubaland are busy playing 'oju aiye' politics and politics of correctness till the entire South West region will turn to slum and Nigeria's waste site.

Years from now, tourists like the poster will be making videos about eyesore in Lagos while the losers calling themselves leaders, who failed to act will be rotting away in their graves. Failures.

And Riwandal, Zimbabwe do not have influx? Do you know the amount Riwanda pulls from their influx?

Ahi na the migrants dey shit for Alesh? Agungi Pedestrian bridge.

Go to the mainlane. The railwway lines at oshodi. You go see several layers of shit. ..

Yorubas need to wake up and fast..
Lagos used to be serene up till the mid 90s' till everything changed.. it started with Balogun market, then Computer Village, Trade Fair and now all across the State.

Is Nigeria at war?.. why the unchecked influx of people into Yorubalands?

Is South West the only habitable region in Nigeria?.

Those in Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Ondo etc. must wake up and avoid the mistake made in Lagos.

you are so uninformed

You think yoruba people made Lagos the former capital of Nigeria?

Go to Abuja and see millions of Yoruba people there, you think it's in the SW,

Have you been to London
Yoruba people have their own community there, some of you just come to social media and be talking trash

Lagos economy is bigger than some African countries, you think it's Yoruba people alone that made it so?

Most people don't know until they visit. Not only India, but some of these African countries we look down on, like Botswana or Namibia, are actually better off than Nigeria.


Botswana, Namibia and South Africa are better places to live because they have a White European population living there. India is more of an object lesson for Nigeria because it's successes are majorly due to the indigenous population AND also because it shares a similar colonial history. Negroes with the highest HDI and wealth in the world live in White or Caucasian dominated or controlled countries. A comparison of South Africa, Zimbabwe and Nigeria makes that abundantly clear.

There's no country controlled or dominated by Negroes that has high HDI without having a substantive population of European Whites citizens....it never can happen. It's not an accident that Nigeria, a country with the highest concentration or population of Negroes in the world, is also the Poverty Capital of the World.

Good Luck to Nigeria.

Another thing is, the guy himself. This is the most relaxed and carefree I've seen him. Go and watch his video in his own country, Kenya. He was uptight. Maybe it was just because of travelling, but that guy was relaxed and carefree - and generally quite happy!

In US/UK he'd be meeting what they call "stiff upper lip" attitude here and there grin

I'm an Indian from India. I don't get what this entire thread is about. India's per capita GDP is $2880 while Nigeria's is $1621 So no wonder some places in Nigeria look a good as some places in India.

Add to it the corruption in the Municipal Corporations in India and the fact that we have millions of immigrants flooding into Delhi every year and its no wonder that the city's infrastructure can't always keep pace.

Keep in mind, this city has almost as much GDP as entire Nigeria. So the comparison is a bit off....


Reason India is hyped up is because it is the fastest growing major economy on the planet, just overtook Japan this year, will overtake next year.

And the other reason India is hyped up is because of Indian technology. A small example of the same, look at how 5G rollout in India was much faster and more widespread than even Europe. And then go read about how India is among the top nations that are doing R & D and owning intellectual property in 6G technologies like THz communications. Or look at Indian advancements in Supercomputing, Quantum Key Encryption, Hyperspectral Imaging, deep sea mining, etc. Indian firms are getting contracts from US military these days, like Pixxel aerospace that got contract for Hyperspectral imaging payloads that Pixxel made with Indian technology.

https://x.com/IndianTechGuide/status/1715639233053143468

Photo shows Indian 5G rollout compared to Europe.

What’s the point of these developments when your US and Canada embassies in Delhi are filled with people wanting to flee? And the dilapidated infrastructure?

Where is all the money from the corporate taxes these big companies are paying?

It’s obvious the fruits of these advancements you listed are only circulating among the elite without impacting wider society.

There’s been a reduction of poverty for many millions of people there over the last decade or two, but the infrastructure is not really matching up to that.

Read my comment. That is exactly what I am saying. The difference is not that great in GDP per capita. The difference is in technological prowess, industrial output and sheer geopolitical heft.

India is a third world nation that commands the military and economic strength suring many first world nations, like our former colonizers, the Brits.

They are a billion people in that country, so of course they will be doing more stuff in industry even if they are a developing country.

Same way Nigeria has bigger companies and industries with advanced technology than Liberia or Sierra Leone or Ghana.

It is the colonial mentality that is pervasive in Nigeria that makes India think big of themselves. Nigerians - both regular and corporate regards Indians and Chinese more superior to other Nigerians. Hence, these Nigerian owned and operated companies will rather hire Indians and Chinese to run/manage their companies than Nigerians that are more competent. Worse still, they will offer higher compensation with benefits to these foreigners than Nigerians that are more competent and knowledgeable. It is all part of the colonial/slave mentality and very shameful.

Kemetian:
Many African countries have better living standards and better infrastructure than India.

Many parts of Nigeria are better than India.

I've no idea what makes them feel big when they see black folks.

without the influx of people from other states lagos will be a shadow of itself. A blend of different people from different places come into lagos with different ideas, bringing their ideas into fruition and whallah you have Lagos. No country or state can thrive or develope on its own without the impact of immigrants. For example America becoming a super power stems from its heterogenous society, same thing with the ancient Roman empire. So Lagos is a mini Nigeria which is the reason for its transformation. The indigenous people alone could never have made lagos what it is today even after two hundred years.

Why are you Yoruba guys not bold enough to seek for a peaceful division of Nigeria so that Yorubas can have a fully independent Yoruba nation where Yorubas can fully decide how they want their city to be without migrants?


Because under national and international law you have no right or legal backing to call your fellow countrymen migrants, every Nigerian have the full right to move freely within Nigeria and live freely in any part of Nigeria he or she likes so long as he or she is law abiding and not committing crime, and if he or she commits crime as a Nigerian citizen, it is the responsibility of the security aka Nigerian Police to arrest and prosecute him but you cannot deport someone in his own country. Yorubas please stop using such words, it's hate speech and punishable under both national and international law. Your countrymen can never be called migrants. Migrants are people from outside your country. Are you guys not informed or what?


So to achieve this una Yoruba egbe patriotism, you Yorubas need to be brave enough to start full agitation for an independent Yoruba nation because you cannot be in the same nation with other tribes where you use politics of gangup and corruption to be collecting their resources and be developing your region while using politics to sideline their region and still turnaround to tell them not to come to your region, that is a call for anarchy and possible crises and even war.


Best thing is for Yorubas to Igbos and ask for a peaceful division of Nigeria so Yorubas can have Yoruba region to themselves alone and do as they like with it, it's that simple, anything less is a call for crises and full anarchy. But if you guys seek for your own Yoruba nation, you then have the full legal backing to issue visa to people that meets your visa rules and deport any none Yoruba nation person that violates your Yoruba nation's law
grin Otondo, you can continue crying grin you are still an economic migrant weather you like it or not grin as long as you leave your region to another, it is still called migration but i won’t expect an illiterate ipob trader to know that grin

And talking ing your resources to build other region, abeg which resources are you talking about? The last I checked Ondo state land produce more crude oil than your entire region put together and also Sw have other resources and agriculture crops like cocoa which was used to develop the Sw.

And may I remind you that Lagos as the former capital which most of you ignorant ipob minion are always quick to cry about, ended at fadeyi and the rest of the mainland was under Awolowo western region and developed with cocoa money grin

So please tell us the resources of other region used to develop Sw and may I also remind you that not just Lagos host you economic migrants but all part of Yorubaland ing for the region hosting 21% of Nigerians so keep your propaganda story to your ipob WhatsApp group grin

My point is this, challenge yourself today. Leave that your comfort zone, see live from different perspectives, in no time, your life will transform to good. Those people they call billionaires, did not spend their precious time talking down on a tribe👌✌️

According to stats, the statw where people migrate to Lagos most is Ogun State, and contrary to what you are thinking, migrants from SE states have been very minimal for many years now, are you calling other Yorubas like you who immigrate to Lagos for opportunities, economic refugees? Because I am sure you are not from Lagos. See, while your political leaders are more rich, more refined and more exposed than you, they are as primitive as you are. Its not that if immigrants from the region you love to hate are trooping to Lagos as you think they wouldnt have done something about it, its because that is not a reality. Sanwo-Olu force deporting Osun indigenes? Funny stuff.
