The Real Dangers of Traveling to Nigeria!!!!

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

It's important to protect yourself when you go to Nigeria! Make sure you do when you go!

I went in Late March-April. Was very hot, but i keep water, few showers a day, AC.

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

Lol! It was similar when I went in November

[@agneschukwu-rt2ox]

Did your Solis work out there? 🤣

[@roseeze166]

Very good review. You were being very diplomatic. Nigerian drivers have NO RESPECT for human life.They speed when they see you crossing. Thank for giving people an honest review. Your videos have excellent picture quality. May I ask if you used an IPhone or a particular type of camera??

Thank you for watching! I'm using a camera

I’m guessing it did? Sorry just wondering because I know the network in Nigeria can be spotty

[@CdFreight-fr7sy]

Thank you I’m dating a girl from north Nigeria and I need to know all about it before I go get her and bring her to America

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

It's my pleasure! Thank you for watching!

A while grown man sat down and decided to spew this rubbish What Nigeria did you visit?

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

Thank you for watching! I have TONS of family living there who would tell you the same thing in this video. Most Nigerians are hard-working, friendly people who want to help their country be the best it can and should be in Africa. When you're a petro producing country, there's no reason why the money received couldn't be used to improve the lives of all Nigerians.....

[@emmanuelefemena2959]

​@@WanderlustAweSyndromeEven if you want to talk about a country you don't generalize that all state in Nigeria are the,same. You came to and says in Nigeria there's traffic everywhere that's a big lie. Base In Lagos Nigeria and not everyone staying in Nigeria love to move to Lagos due to Lagos life style. Just like new York that's how Lagos is. So don't come here and start talking down about Nigeria. The country you base is it hundred percent ook. Or are you a politician guy.

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

I've also been to Port Harcourt. Traffic there is just as bad a Legos. Also, I've never said traffic was bad everywhere in Nigeria. I said the infrastructure doesn't support the demands of an average Nigeria. I believe it's something we can agree on. I've stated that Nigeria is misunderstood. That all of the country isn't bad, but it has bad parts just like any other country

[@nmg1909]

​@@WanderlustAweSyndrome Are you safe in America? You should be telling us how to protect ourselves when traveling to America with our guns instead! I wonder how you guys are always concerned about Nigeria, whereas you aren't saved in America. 😂😂😂😂😂

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

Yes, I'm safe in America just as I felt safe in Nigeria. Regardless, I'm not talking about the US. I'm talking about Nigeria based on my experiences going there.

This video was completely unnecessary and misrepresents Nigeria, a country of over 200 million people. It's disappointing to see such a portrayal coming from a fellow black person, something one might expect from Western media. Nigeria is incredibly diverse and vast, with both good and bad areas, much like any other country. I live in one of the most dangerous cities in America, yet you don't see Nigerians generalizing the entire city as dangerous. Despite the poor infrastructure in some places, people are still encouraged to visit. Travelers know they need to be cautious, just as they would in Los Angeles, New York, or Chicago. Referring to "Nigeria" broadly without specifying particular areas or cities is misleading. Is traffic terrible in Ado-Ekiti, Akure, Ile-Ife, Festac Town in Lagos, Sakponba Road in Benin City, or Badagry in Lagos? No, and failing to mention specific areas only spreads misinformation. Warning about spicy food is also unnecessary; anyone with basic knowledge knows that Nigerian cuisine, like Mexican food, is often spicy. Yet, you don't see people cautioning about Mexican food in the same way, which is both hilarious and silly. This video will likely do more harm than good. Instead of attracting subscribers, it might cause people to unsubscribe and avoid your channel. Nigerians are known for helping channels grow quickly, but this unfair and unnecessary video has likely ruined that opportunity. There are so many positive topics you could have showcased about Nigeria, such as "Beautiful and Interesting Cities to Visit in Nigeria" or "Fun and Fascinating Facts About Nigeria." In the future, consider focusing on the rich culture, vibrant cities, and the welcoming nature of Nigerian people. Highlighting mostly positive aspects, while putting little words of caution about relevant and general dangers that are important to know about, in any city, would be far more beneficial and would encourage a more accurate and appreciative understanding of Nigeria.

To further illustrate my points, let's examine the thumbnails you've chosen for your videos. The disparity is striking and clearly shows a bias against Nigeria. For this video, you used an image of a skull, symbolizing death and evil. This is not only misleading but also unfairly negative. In contrast, your thumbnails for videos about European cities, where crime rates can be just as high or even higher than in Lagos, are beautiful and inviting. This choice of imagery is problematic for several reasons. Firstly, it perpetuates a harmful stereotype about Nigeria, painting it as a dangerous and undesirable place. This is far from the truth. Nigeria, like any other country, has its challenges, but it is also a nation rich in culture, history, and beauty. By using such a negative image, you overshadow the positive aspects and contribute to a one-sided narrative. Secondly, this bias can have real-world consequences. Potential visitors to Nigeria might be deterred by this portrayal, missing out on the country's vibrant cities, friendly people, and unique experiences. Moreover, it can perpetuate ignorance and prejudice, reinforcing negative perceptions without giving an accurate picture. The choice of thumbnails for your European videos further highlights this issue. By selecting attractive and welcoming images for these cities, you present them in a positive light, encouraging viewership and interest. This stark contrast in presentation between your European and Nigerian videos is not only obvious but also wrong. Instead of resorting to sensationalism and negative stereotypes, consider using thumbnails that reflect the true diversity and vibrancy of Nigeria. For instance, images of bustling markets, beautiful landscapes, or cultural festivals would provide a more balanced and appealing representation. This approach would not only be fairer but also more informative and engaging for your audience. In summary, the biased thumbnail choice undermines the credibility of your content and unfairly targets Nigeria. A more balanced and positive portrayal would better serve your audience and contribute to a more accurate and respectful understanding of the country. By showcasing Nigeria's beauty and complexity, you can create content that is both engaging and fair.

Thank you for watching!

[@BlessingOdunze]

I watched the whole video, and to be honest, the majority of what you said in this video are fabricated, i read through the comments, and a guy was like i am dating a northern girl, this is a discouragement for someone i am not even sure has gone to Nigeria before, the foreigners leaving there aren't sick and stupid, be mindful of what you spread, thank you.

[@WanderlustAweSyndrome]

I'm basing this on my experiences when I was in Nigeria. You should checkout my other videos where I went to Nigeria. Also, I never said anyone was sick or stupid Please tell me exactly what I fabricated? Please watch these videos before you make more untruths
