1Lagos, Nigeria
Lagos, Nigeria’s largest city and economic powerhouse, faces severe challenges despite its role as a major business hub in Africa. Overpopulation, high crime rates, traffic gridlock, and an unreliable power supply plague daily life for Lagosians. Public services such as healthcare and education struggle to meet the needs of the ever-growing population, and pollution remains a serious concern. While Lagos offers job opportunities, the stark inequality and lack of basic services make life in the city tough for millions.
Factors:
- Overpopulation
- Poor infrastructure
