My Question is simple if Baba Fela was still alive, who would have been his candidate? Bet me it not BAT nor Atiku

The Americans are masters of using familiar-looking faces to push their state department and CIA propaganda. The subtle message they're making here is "the white man is bad, and China is equally as bad."

China didn't colonize us and never couped us or armed rebels or started a civil war on the continent. China has never attacked an African country as the oyimbos did to Libya and Somalia. China is giving us loans on far better terms and letting us decide what we build instead of lecturing us as the west does.

They see that China is giving us an alternative to western hegemony, and they don't like it. They want us to say no to the new railways, ports, and dams and never industrialize. We should keep exporting raw materials and cocoa and be poor forever like good little slaves.

Nice video! My Godmother is from Sierra Leone and always told me that the Western perception of Africa is wrong. Even African Americans don't truly know because our heritage has been stripped and we have to actively pursue learning about African culture. This video shows that just like the states there are rural and non rural beautiful areas. We are not still in huts. My Godmother would say people in the modern world who still live in those communities choose to, but that does not represent the whole of the continent. Great share and hopefully educates!

I have to make it my priority to visit! My maternal line is rooted in a Mende Woman. Proud beyoond measure. Thanks for the video and the point made.

Yes, practice usual or slightly heightened caution, depending on the region. And do not go pretty close to the north for now, not necessarily because you're a woman but because it's generally dangerous for everyone. You should bring a giant sun hat and shades. If you want to go out at nighttime, I'd recommend sticking to Lagos or Abuja, as they're the most nighttime-friendly cities/states. If you are Igbo, I will recommend Owerri. Been there, and they have a solid social nightlife scene. I don't know about the other states; anyone can correct me.

Since you said "one day," I don't need to point out that it's not a good idea to come anytime between now and April (see: elections)

I'm reading the history of Nigerian architecture, and I'm currently reading about the Benin kingdom. It's nice to see elements I've only imagined from words in these pictures. Thank you for sharing. I would appreciate getting links to these images or other sources to learn more about ancient Benin.

I remember growing up in one of these around Ikotun Market. Maybe I'm just nostalgic, but it was fun because it was like a small community in the compound. We, the kids, would play football in the compound car park, and neighbors would hang out with each other whenever there was a birthday. Everyone came. It was pretty nice. Although when there was drama, there was no way around it 😅

Pretty interesting that the old might soon become new.

Which wealth all these tech companies Don create for Nigeria?

You no dey talk of Dangote group weh Don use cement create retail billionaires, dey talk of tech fraudsters whose only source of income is investors.

I selected ikeja for its originality and easy access to the airport and it's like the center of the whole Lagos.
