Mr. Femi Pedro, a former deputy governor of Lagos State, has urged indigenes to prioritize teaching their kids how to create money so that they can take advantage of the state’s numerous prospects.
Pedro stated that Lagos had experienced significant economic transformation and wealth-building over the years, particularly because of its strategic placement and availability of many options.
Lagos, he said, “has the largest concentration of banks and insurance companies scattered in every nook and cranny of the state. This makes it the financial capital of Nigeria.”
“Let me announce that there is no doubt that Lagos State has experienced significant economic transformation and wealth growth over the years, particularly as a result of its strategic posture and abundance of chances.
Ironically, though, it is the non-indigenous people who gain the most.
“However, it’s still early. I’ll advise the younger generation of Lagosians to start educating their kids immediately, especially on how to get money and develop connections with influential people in politics, Pedro added.
He challenged the younger generation of Lagosians to adopt an entrepreneurial mindset or, alternatively, to place their children in positions of wealth in order to capitalize on the state’s historical wealth.

“It would be shocking to learn that sojourners have purchased 90% of the homes in Lagos, which should be changed,” Pedro continued.
