  your comments is misplaced here. nobody hates Nigeria because it is a bigger economy than ours. we hate Nigerians because most Nigerians are disappointing in many ways than one. we hate them socially not economically. so learn to differentiate the two. again u should note that lagos is not only a city but also a state. its Nigeria's commercial state. just as the GDP of London is bigger than all of the UK, so is Lagos GDP BIGGER than the whole of Nigeria combined, minus oil. so is the GDP of Accra bigger than the whole of Ghana combined. the point is the commercial state or capital of a nation is its nerve centre for commerce and FDI inflows. I would have cried sadly if you had said that Lagos' GDP is lower than that of Ghana. try to put your analysis in to context and understand geo economics before making uninformed sweeping conclusions. the fact that you can google it doesn't make it right. the gdp of lagos state is bigger than that of all Nigeria combined, what do u say to that too...and that is a country where the amount of oil wasted or stolen per day is 250,000 barrels. Ghana only produces half of that. that is the balck market of oil in Nigeria, centred around the oil creeks and lagos alone is far more than what Ghana produces. that is food for thought, Nigeria is the biggest economy in Africa, but they can't even handle that wealth and gini coefficient of inequality is far worse than any other African country... perhaps that explains boko haram.

  Lagos does not have oil, theres no oil company in lagos, and Nigerias middle income class is 70million ppl more than ours, even the oil producing states in Nigeria GDP are not up to that of lagos. Nigerian banks are all over africa and i have seen some in the UK too, do we have one ghanaian owned bank or company doing well outside gh, All am saying is that we should stop hating dem.
