What Can $10 Get in LAGOS, NIGERIA? (Craziest City)

Показать описание

HELLO FROM LAGOS, NIGERIA -- COUNTRY #175!! 🇳🇬 I truly had a lot of fun making this video inside Africa's craziest and most populated city. Did you know that over 20 million people are living in Lagos?! It is hands down one of the most hectic, chaotic, and vibrant places I've ever been with a LOT of stories to tell. I'm overwhelmed.

My local friend and YouTuber named Tayo (his channel linked below) has been taking me all around his bustling city of Lagos and we've had an absolute blast together. Surprisingly, this was one of the hardest videos I've ever made because it's REALLY challenging to shoot content on these streets. People don't like being on camera here and they make a huge commotion in the streets and ask for money (etc) whenever they see it from a distance.

In any regard, I hope you enjoy this episode of my $10 series and get a glimpse into local Nigerian culture. More to come tomorrow! Nigeria is awesome!

People talking about being scammed for paying about $1.5 for one handmade bracelet but don’t mind paying $7 for a cup of low-quality Starbucks coffee.

Nigeria is one of my bucket list countries! The people are so kind and relaxed. Thanks for sharing your experience!

I'm Nigerian...let me explain how it is

Normal price: 100NGN
Price when sellers see a white guy: 500NGN

EVERYTIME.

I can't believe I have to add this but, this isn't racism against white people, that's not the underlying principle at play. Sellers in open markets around the world will charge based on how wealthy they think you are and how familiar with the environment they think you are. You're free to hassle for a better deal too obvs

One thing that really made this video authentic was the road rage at 4:47. "O ya wèrè ni?!("Are you crazy?!")
Captured Lagos so true, I love it!

Tip when you’re bargaining, act like you’re about to leave because the price is unaffordable for you and watch them call you back and say “oya bring it”. Everything can be bargained in Nigeria

it's so disappointing how Nigeria and other African countries are so culturally rich and developing with a good rate yet people think these countries are poor filled with slums and looked down upon. Love Nigeria, from India.

Nigerians are very friendly people with alot of energy.
Thanks for visiting but there are more beautiful places you could have as well visited in Nigeria. Kudos

Lagos fascinates me.
1950 population— 350, 000.
2020 population — 20M.
That’s some growth.
