Visited Nigeria from Cameroon some years ago and I almost did not return. Their hospitality is on another level, especially if they find out that you a from a different country. Please do NOT believe the stereotype about Nigeria. The population is huge and it's just a few bad eggs. I loveee Nigeria and can't wait to visit again soonest. Up up Naija 💪

I remember once visting my dad in Nigeria. We got a cab to go somewhere but got stuck in a ditch. I kid you not, every single male figure that witnessed what happened, got in that ditch and helped us get out. Not only that, they warned us about crooked police officers that were extorting drivers just further up the road and helped us turn around, even stopping traffic coming in the opposite direction just so we can manoeuvre safely. I love that country, it's just the leaders.

Boss thank you for this! Am Nigerian 🇳🇬, born and bred in the UK 🇬🇧, for years my mother would encourage me not to make the trip to Lagos Nigeria, she poisoned her children minds, all the Nigerian that I meant in the UK would tell me the same, so imagine my shock when I went in October this year (2023), stayed in Lekki, Ikeja and travelled by Train to Ogun state. The people were all lovely, amazing people, cheap food, nice restaurants and bars. The only issue was me getting stopped by police every time/ every where but I was let go once they know am not some scammer. So I wondered why do Nigerian who leave their country always give it a bad rep with the way they talk about people not visiting their country! I walked around in all my stuffs, in mainland, oshodi, agege but never got to get to Ikorodu to explore. Nigerians themselves always discourage people from going there, am planning another visit there soon withiut my mothers knowledge, i even was able to watch football at Onikan stadium (Sporting Lagos v Noger tornadoes) in a box.

As a Nigerian abroad, I do feel embarrassed when people talk about the country in a negative way because the majority don't know about the country. I also get surprised when foreign people especially in the western world think Nigerian and African people generally live in a bush. Lagos and Abuja are just two places. There are many states and cities very peaceful, welcoming and endowed with resources and are places of tourism

It used to bother me, but not anymore. The Western media are notorious for propagating embellishments, exaggerations, inaccuracies and outright lies about Africa and Africans. Nonetheless, more than ever before, I think with the advent of the internet, the headache is theirs because we can prove their cynically racist and disdainful mindset wrong by continuing to be creative, hardworking and law-abiding.

@dreskyline5450 it's not, Nigerians in general love to put down the country, especially the Nigerians in diaspora. It's sickening listening to them all the time, I'm sorry to say this but Nigerians from the southern part always have less of positive things to say about their country and this is what give these perceptions about the country. Imagine a foreigner hearing such from a citizen of a country, he would believe 💯

Good content bro. Most Nigerians i meet are very driven and smart. They however don't seem very patriotic.They easily denigrate their country at any opportunity.

The country is still young and going through some challenges.

I pray that Nigerians become more patriotic. It's okay to critize your g9vt if they are not performing but we need to respect ourselves especially in public. Some Nigerians feel too comfortable denigrating Nigeria in the presence of others. When I was younger I complained about Nigeria in the presence of others including non-Nigerians. I recall other Nigerians doing same. I know better now. I think part of the problem is when in Nigeria people identify as their teibe. When you travel abroad that is when you idenify as Nigerian. .

Now we have lots of refugees in our area and they seem shy and wary, they must be scared coming to a new country. The asylum seekers are not very welcome for reasons not to do with them, so we're trying to educate ourselves about their country to see if theres any ways we can make their life better.

You can literally as a "foreigner" land in Lagos get an Uber (use Bolt, its better) and go wherever, posh restaurants, lounges what have you. Same in Abuja. There are literally random white people walking all over the place in Lagos, completely unbothered with the world. The issues with Lagos are about inconvenience (traffic, etc.) not security. Regarding inconvenience, save your pennies, stay in Victoria Island/Ikoyi/Lekki and go to the rowdy parts of mainland if you have the appetite. Otherwise, you won't even deal with any of that. And if you want chill, green, mainstream Nigeria, go to Abuja. If you want a more throwback vibe, go to Uyo.
