Lagos, Nigeria ; City of wisdom

in #writing7 years ago (edited)

Nothing in this world comes pretty, everything with one or two defects.
The ever gallant and never empty streets of Lagos, ready to chastise anyone who tries to show "i own it all attitude" wit the spirit of hustle roaming around has now succumbed to the signal of innovation.

The city where dirts, stains and relaxing garbages used to be the culture, where garages used to be the hometown of every jobless folks is experiencing a new dawn. "Eko o ni baje" has been the slang that has kept us together and gave us hope of a better tomorrow.
The fact remains one tree cannot make a forest, division of labour yield larger output. You do the thinking, I do the implementation and we all take the glory has been the superior motives of the leaders of the city.
Your hustle doesn't disturb my hustle, loud yell of "Egbeda ikeja-along, oshodi" even till the murk has been the cultural vibe.
We dey suffer we dey smile has be the motto of survival and success.

The islands where we organize our perfect celebration during weekend for the tribulation during the weekdays.
True that there is light after the tunnel.
New universe with a fresh sun, glowing stars, luminous moon with heavenly fragnance has emerged in the city of Lagos.
Presentable environmental view over junks,
serenity over chaos, peace at work,
lagos at work,
Lagos; the new dawn
"Eko o ni baje, o baje ti"
