Lagos is a beautiful state in Nigeria, West Africa you need to visit. Everyone in Lagos has a specie name Lagosians and are of the same genus name Nigeria, giving us a botanical name Nigerian lagosian. Hmmm sounds cool isn't it, but even though we are all Lagosians, we do not live and have the same life style.
I am still a child and I've only lived in Lagos for only a few years even though I was born there. Lagos is a big city comprising beautiful places, centres, hoods and a lot more.
Let me take you around Lagos a little bit. As you all know, I'm

AN AVERAGE LAGOSIAN IS AN HUSTLER
Exactly, an average Lagosian will always survive even when they wake up with nothing in their pocket. Lagosians are unique in diverse works and trade,
Do you think you know certain professions, then let's check this out.
Have you heard of
AGBERO
I know you wonder what kind of profession this is, well a proper Lagosian will know them. Agberos are members of the National Union For Road Transport And Workers (NURTW) also known as "Up Nasanal". Till date I wonder who employ these people, you find them at every junction on the road of Lagos, collecting tithe from danfo drivers who work tirelessly (don't worry, i will tell you about Danfo drivers next). Agberos will be on the road of Lagos from morning till night collecting money without doing any form of work, they create their own law.
Agberos in Lagos collects different types of money ranging from owo ita (Money for them coming out), owo loadi (Money for passengers in the bus), owo chairman (chairman's money), owo aro (Moening money), and so on.
DANFO DRIVERS
They are the king of the roads in Lagos they are known to drive yellow buses. They are also members of the National Union Of Raod Transport Workers (NURTW) but they are not friends with the Agberos, maybe because they extort cash from them. Danfo drivers are one of the major cause of traffic jam in Lagos.
STREET OR TRAFFIC JAM TRADING
In Lagos, Lagosians take advantage of every opportunity they see including traffic jams. Are you the street of Lagos and you are hungry, just pray for traffic jam (A.K.A. Hold up) and I can bet you will see all kind of people selling all kind of things from pie to cooked rice, buns, chin-chin, pop corn, sausage, MoinMoin. In fact, they go ahead to sell mirrors, makeup kits, toothbrush, soap, sponge, stove, petroleum motor spirit (PMS also known as fuel)and so on.
The funny thing about this people is that they appear immediately there is a traffic jam but when the road is free, you barely see any of them.
AN AVERAGE LAGOS CHILD
An average lagos child is a bright child. An average Lagos child can ride a bike tire with a stick, the fun part about it is that they accelerate, control the tire left and right and stop the tire with the stick.
An average 5 year old Lagos child will tell you what #135,000 + #23,850 + 13,350 #200 + #70 = #172470, when you buy a television, a DVD player, a blender, Tv remote and battery respectively. He knows very well that his uncle "Broda chukwudi" will kill him if he makes one mistake.
An average lagos child can tell when you want to steal his biscuit from the look on your face.
