Ikeja vs Lagos[edit]

In the article for Lagos State, Lagos City was differentiated from Ikeja (both were separate cities). Why is Ikeja listed as a local government in this article since this article is not for Lagos State. SuperSwift (talk) 12:33, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Lagos Population[edit]

Our article List of cities in Africa by population has Lagos at #2, behind Kinshasa. List of urban areas in Africa by population shows Lagos as having the 2nd largest metro area, after Cairo. These articles have updated sources. I am creating this thread to ask if anyone disputes these numbers, and if so, what the source is for their claim. Secondarily, what source should we use to determine Lagos' official population in this article? ‡ Єl Cid of Valencia ^talk 13:18, 11 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
