Lagos, Nigeria is a city that never slows down. What began as a quiet Yoruba fishing settlement called Eko has exploded into one of Africa’s biggest and boldest megacities. Once Nigeria’s capital, Lagos is now the country’s economic heartbeat, buzzing with trade, music, tech, fashion, and film. Home to over 17 million people, it’s loud, creative, chaotic, and endlessly ambitious — a place where tradition meets hustle, and every street tells a story.
