Lagos is no man’s land

Veteran entertainer Charly Boy Veteran entertainer Charly Boy

Veteran entertainer Charly Boy has said Lagos is no man’s land, just days after a bus stop in the state named after him was renamed after someone else.

Speaking on Newscentral, Charly Boy was asked to share his opinion on the controversial statement that Lagos is now owned by a particular tribe, despite being historically and culturally a Yoruba city.

In his response, the entertainer said because every ethnic group could be found in the city, then the label of no man’s land fits it.

“This is our first capital, so it has people from different ethnic groups who make Lagos really bubble. If you are looking at it from that perspective, yes it feels like America. The melting pot of lots of immigrant people and look at how Donald Trump is messing the whole thing up.

“Everything up. From that perspective, in terms of people coming together, it is really a no man’s land, it’s like New York. Lagos is like New York of Nigeria,” he said.
