EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the striking transformation of Lagos, Nigeria from 1984 to 2022. In the image from 1984, we see a city in its infancy, with sparse development and vast expanses of greenery. The aerial view shows a city on the cusp of growth, with pockets of urbanization beginning to take shape. Fast forward to 2022, and we are presented with a bustling metropolis that has undergone rapid expansion and development. The color satellite image reveals a densely populated cityscape teeming with skyscrapers, highways, and infrastructure. The once empty spaces are now filled with buildings and roads as far as the eye can see. The contrast between these two images is stark and serves as a powerful reminder of the relentless march of progress. Lagos has evolved from a modest town into one of Africa's largest cities in just a few decades. This visual representation highlights the incredible journey that this vibrant city has undertaken over the years. As we gaze upon this snapshot of Lagos through time, we are reminded of the resilience and dynamism that defines this African powerhouse. It is a testament to human ingenuity and ambition, showcasing how cities can evolve and adapt to meet the needs of their growing populations.
