Palin's doing well for 80, isn't he! Especially after the loss of his wife of 60 years - then straight off to Nigeria. He's seriously impressive - and that mind of his is still fizzing away. Great to see.

Thanks for visiting us in Nigeria. We are happy people despite our difficulties and development is happening at a rapid rate. Pls also show the other 99.9% of our country which is much vibrant and innovative. Hopefully you will get to visit more often and witness the resilience and innovativeness of our people. Safe travels to Michael and his team.

Regardless of how "horrible" you try to depict Nigeria and Lagos, all you've got to look at, is the fact that, in a slum like Makoko in Lagos, the kids are full of resilience, passion and determination, towards EDUCATION... Even in a slum environment, the kids look happy go lucky and healthy!!

There are so many amazing places in Lagos, what the west only wants to show is the down part of Africa. Always quick to present us as the poorest.

Every major city in the world has a contrast between the gleaming high rise towers of wealth and grinding poverty of the slums. But having seen a number of videos about Lagos, and having some friends there, the disparity seems particularly acute in that city. The best parts of the city rival the best parts of any major city in the world, but then you have Makoko, which appears to be a part of the city built in an open cesspool. How can we humans think we are an advanced species when we tolerate such inequality.

The same floating slum in 50 videos. Or let me guess the hyena men, or if you want to be a little different, a drone of a market place. *Yawn*
