Accurate #population data is critical for effective governance. It guides policy, urban planning, and the allocation of resources to where they're needed most. We're creating a guide to population data sources so they can lead to smarter, more equitable decisions for countries.

Lagos’ waterways offer a faster commute, but safety concerns keep many away. Are life jackets truly reliable? What happens in an emergency? These are valid questions. With a recent event raising concerns about taking the ferry in Lagos, here’s what you need to know.

By 2050, 80% of the continent’s total population growth will be absorbed by urban areas. That’s millions of people moving into cities, looking for housing, jobs, and basic services. This #urbanization will reshape everything from infrastructure and transport to governance.

Yesterday's incident illustrates why it's so important for Lagosians to know about water transit alternatives. #LagosFerryMap - link.stears.co/ferrymap

Poor or rich, security cars or okada, everyone was humbled by yesterday's traffic. Walking from VI to Ikoyi heard someone say "whether your car is worth 7billion or not we are all stuck together in this traffic. Non existent pedestrian walkways, broken rails on bridges, water puddles became the only path for all except you wanted to stay in the traffic. This is the reality of the average man. SMH... which way forward..???

The horrific traffic from the #IndependenceBridge closure illustrates why it's so important for Lagosians to know about water transit alternatives. Can a ferry take you where need to go? Check the #LagosFerryMap - link.stears.co/ferrymap
