Photo Speaks: Lagos Mainland Library!

Picture of the current state of the Lagos Mainland LGA Library, located along Herbert Macaulay way, Yaba, Lagos State, Nigeria. Certainly not an environment one will be motivated to study.

Next door to this building, is the Lagos State e-Library, renovated by a major organisation in the state as part of its Community Relations agenda. 

The Lagos Mainland LGA Library nevertheless, needs to be renovated and stocked with relevant study materials by the 'Local Government' on whose constituency it falls. 

The onus should be on Governments (Federal, State, LGAs), to provide basic amenities and lead development, from the tax funds and other allocations.

There can never be enough 'Libraries' or infrastructures in the society. Little wonder the habit of reading to gain knowledge is rapidly dwindling.
