Top Entertainment Destinations In Lagos
Lagos is a city-state that houses 23+ million people in the Nigerian economic capital and a giant among the 36 Nigerian states and the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria. Lagos has historical adventures and wholesome diversity because almost every Nigerian tribe can be found living in Lagos. Lagos is one of Nigeria’s most welcoming states for visitors and new residents.
According to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO): Historically, Lagos (Nigeria) has served multiple parties as a strategic port, base and gateway to the West African hinterland. The city comprises marshland, sand beds and a series of low-lying islands that encase the city’s eponymous lagoon. Lagos is a strong attraction for migrants, whose population represents a culturally heterogeneous composition of more than 250 ethnic groups hailing from other areas of Nigeria and West Africa, which have made Lagos the dynamic melting pot it is today. With the concentration and diversity of its hosted exchanges, Lagos is a nexus for a recent wave of social and creative entrepreneurism, which has catalysed a surge in cultural consumption as well as increased investment, albeit mostly private, in cultural infrastructure.
Diversity and a peaceful environment are not exactly enough to make residents happy; entertainment must be richly available to fill up certain voids and ensure the diverse populace of the state are thriving, socializing and happy.
