The luxury IKOYI - history and development of the RICHEST neighbourhood of Lagos Nigeria - 4k travel

The Luxuary Ikoyi, Nigeria, is a video that brings you to Ikoyi and Obalende, to discover the history of these two places as well as the present development. Starting from Victoria Island Eko roundabout, we will fast reach Falomo bridge to cross to Ikoyi.
From Awolowo , to Keffi, and Obalende, you'll visit the place till Bourdillon or Alexander road. You 'll maybe learn how the island was created and drained in some part with a canal...

I hope you will like this dive into present and past developments of the the Famous Ikoyi neighbourhood in Lagos Nigeria.

Ludo this is more than a vlog but a historic documentary of the city which will be appreciated by future generations. Your content is like no other in its comprehensiveness and gritty realism. You take us on a ride through the Lagos we would otherwise not see.

Nice video. it has changed a fair bit from when we lived in Ikoyi after my parents took us back to the home country from the UK. At the time it was still very heavily colonial in architecture and very much a government residential area for senior civil servants. It was exclusively old fashioned too with very few new builds and very large gardens, some with tennis courts and lawns that backed on to the lagoon. It used to be very different from Victoria Island where I lived while at the law school. I remember crossing the five coweries’ creek from Victoria island to ikoyi and you could see the difference of between both islands. VI was wealthy in a brash new way while ikoyi had air of old worldliness. What has really changed is VI becoming the city’s new downtown district, a role that has traditionally belonged to Lagos Island since colonial times, while VI was mainly residential and diplomatic, with large 5 star hotels. The overhead pow elites in Lagos lends a generally shabbiness to the city in my opinion

I lived in Ikoyi (Lawrence street) for many years, was nice to see the neighborhood again. The best thing I like about your videos is that you just show how your drive is, with no music, no editing. Good job!

[kudazibani]

Even though I haven't been to Nigeria before I really love this country and your videos do really make me want to visit.

I love your work sir, you've indeed brought Lagos to me here in the UK. I've been watching your contents on my TV account so couldn't drop a comment but I feel so much joy watching this particular video, had to drop this comment.
Keep up the good work, we appreciate what you do. I and my family always watch your videos.
Good luck 👍

Obalende has the potential to develop an alternative bohemian arty vibe to ikoyi and VI with hip bars, cafes and restaurants. The government just needs to invest in tidying up the streets and giving out business permits. It could bring new businesses to the area and generate more employment prospects and improve residents income levels in the area

It was nice seeing you for the first time Ludo (1:07) buying your beans hahaha
Kind of you to help her with her basket. It's amazing how they balance those loads on their heads: tradition
