Cinematters: Lagos a.k.a Eko

A land filled with milk and honey so they said. I and some of my buddies were exchanging experiences we have all had in Lagos and i wanted to laugh my head off.
Lagos is a land of natural comedy were you find the good, the bad and the ugly in every aspect of life. According to one of my friends; the essential commodities of life which are shelter, food and transportation used to be very cheap but as of now, it has all sky rocketed because of over-population. One will go to market with a huge amount of money to buy food stuffs, later come back to wonder if by mistake part of the money has been misplaced. Another said that the stress alone leaves a lot of people in a confused state. Because of too much stress, a man slept over the night and did not wake up the following morning.
When you come to the entertainment industry, you will scream when you see a lot of trash dished out to the society because people want to make it over night.

Oh sweetly you come to the ladies world, there you will SHOUT  'I NO FIT SHOUT' because ladies compete daily who will stand out the most which makes some ladies go to the extremes in order to belong.

What about the men? There all hell breaks lose because the 'Big Boys' must maintain their status. Some men have turned to professional liers and even have it as a hobby.
But so what? Without all these, Lagos will not be adventurous and fun to be in, so if you live in Lagos and you are a survivor no matter the class you belong- 'good, bad or ugly' please thumbs up!
