Thks so much Funke. I traveled 🧳 von Germany to Lagos Nigeria and following ur videos has really helped me because I had an appointment for my corona test for 96 hours b4 my flight, then I got a video notification from u and after watching the video that it’s 72 hours 😳I just called my doctor and it was changed . So I want to appreciate you videos and Tipps in Travelling. Greetings from Lagos Nigerian in my beautiful hotel.

Thank you for this video but I happen to disagree with some of what was said here. Foreigners never drive on one way, Nigerians in Nigeria do. I saw the most irresponsible driving in Nigeria.Also, police corruption is not a myth. It’s for real. I experienced it right from the airport when I arrived

[@mimianon9025]

“One way driving” is Southbound traffic facing northbound traffic. That’s how to describe it to an 🇺🇸 at least. Stephen it’s not accurate that your police ARE trying to do their job, they drink on the job, are corrupt and frankly most of them are not fit to be in law enforcement.

Aunty, I wish the information you're saying is right. People who applied for passport in 2020 still have not received it TODAY. The Nigerian Immigration should make things easier and faster for those outside Nigeria.

[@AlaskaSL202]

Yes I'm from Delta State warri is pretty safe as well

[@annelenington8720]

Ok I get some of the points but...you say Nigeria is a conservative christian based country so don't dress inappropriate like a mini skirt...are you srs??? In warri all you see is boobs & legs and butt if they bend over even a lil bit in the dresses they wear( if they're not so skin tight that is) everyone could see everything front and back...in family restaurants on the streets everywhere...I was in shock by the way they represented Nigeria after seeing how the ladies dressed and not only kids but almost 30 yr old ladies...oh but thanks for the heads up on the camouflage cuz here in America it is very popular to wear here for a few years now we all have several pieces in our wardrobe I would've had no idea...Many more of these types of videos need to be shown...Great job!

Sassy would you consider the way you are dressed inappropriate?

[@SassyFunke]

No

[@augustineukulu1891]

What's so inappropriate about her dressing? Some people are so lame and self righteous. You are more concerned about what she is wearing than what she got to say. Remember that she has traveled wide and more educated than you and knows exactly how to conduct herself. I am sure her husband loves how she dresses. Concentrate on yourself and let others be. SMH.

[@kevinbell475]

Steven, to your first point of no nos, it is very unlikely for an American or UK citizen or resident to drive on the wrong or opposite side of the road. They are already accustomed to obeying traffic regulations in their host countries, so seeing the chaos on Lagos roads is actually horrifying. I agree to avoid any confrontation with the police. The truth is though, the police department is beyond corrupt. The idea that they are out there trying to do a job and enforce the law is laughable. They serve no useful purpose to society if we are to be honest, and they should called out. However, thanks for the tips.

[@vivianphoenix]

@@kevinbell475 Well said

[@annelenington8720]

We need alot more like this...incl. food/water and other safety issues for women as well as more rules of thumb cuz there are alot!

[@e.a.4269]

@@kevinbell475 The young man is trying not get into trouble with police. However, your description of the Nigerian police is on point. By the way, most Nigerian institutions are actually beyond corrupt to be frank.

[@gerardonochie3408]

I disagree about not driving in Lagos. Apart from the crazy traffic jams there is nothing to be worried about. My attitude is when in another man's country adapt to his ways ( Lawfully ). Lagos with all due respect is over hyped. Scratch the surface and you will understand what I am saying. The jumping of the queue is nothing peculiar about Nigeria or Abroad....it all boils down to BASIC HOME TRAINING. If you are a bush man in London you will be a bush man in Lagos, New York or any city in the world. Basic manners and common sense.....

[@kemiajayi3069]

Good points! Most of the time it’s you people living in Nigeria that don’t stay in line, e.g in the bank, grocery stores, not visitors coming from another country.

I told their boss it was bought from boutique,he said no way am going to see their boss at ikeja cantonment.
