What I noticed from the amount charged for the things you bought on the street are not inflated cos of the color of your skin. And you're so comfortable moving around says a lot about your being a part of the environment. Plus the people are just natural and fun to be with. Keep pushing the right narratives. We love you ❤❤❤
Thank you so much ❤️! That’s incredibly nice to hear. It’s a joy to be in Nigeria and meet so many different people, just very glad I can capture some of it to share. Not always easy though! Hope you enjoy the videos going forward, Kano next. It feels like another world up there 🇳🇬 Have a lovely weekend
@6:21 You said there's no Baba Ijebu outside his own house😅😅😅 that got me Lmao... Great job brov, nice one and I'm happy to see the current look of my neighbourhood growing up. I lived in Ikoyi for a cummulative 28years and i witnessed it all, from the colonial era buildings, to when it was mainly a civil and public servants allocated residency, and then the public privatisation of federal govt properties in Ikoyi during former President Obasanjo tenure which transformed it to what it is today.
Hah! I thought there might be at least one on the street corner 😉. Would be very easy for him to carry out customer feedback… Appreciate the comment and extra information for everyone. Friends of mine say that not that long ago the Mainland was still the place to be for these people. Hope you keep enjoying the videos, Kano next. Almost another world 🇳🇬
Nigerians are beautiful people,very humble and down to earth.This is what the leaders have taken for granted.The lady at the bread and zobo joint speaks very fluent English yet on the street...Karma will deal with these wicked nigerian leaders.
Naija no dey carry last! For sure there are many issues which need addressing urgently because the suffering is becoming too much. Patty, I’ve recently discovered, works in real estate as was just helping out her friend that day. Thank you for watching and hope you enjoy the videos going forward 🇳🇬 🙏
Another great video! Every week, I take a walk around Ikoyi, Lagos, to observe the latest developments of high-rise buildings, particularly along Bourdillon, Gerard, and Alexander roads. With the exception of the residences of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Late Herbert Wigwe 😞😞😞, the other opulent home is still a mystery to me, but this video has helped to shed some light on it. Seeing you provide alms to the poor on the street is incredibly charitable.
Sir, you are incredibly kind to say. Appreciate you sharing your own experience of Ikoyi and glad I could show you something slightly different. I’m sure we must’ve crossed paths on the streets many times going for a walk! Have a great weekend and hope you enjoy the Kano videos coming up 🇳🇬
I gotta give it to, this is like nothing I've ever seen (well maybe Sabbatical). But I've been watching your uploads and thinking, "yeah this dude is WAY too comfortable over there." So I was not shocked to hear that on/off since '16. But I WAS shocked to see that preview for the next episode with you fighting in the ring! I thank you for showing this, on the ground, view of life over there.
Thank you, Mr Bob! Very kind words and glad you’re enjoying the videos. You’re right, I do feel very comfortable in Naija, would recommend a visit if you can. BUT my heart was certainly pumping in that Dambe fighting ring… Hope you enjoy the Kano episodes (Northern Nigeria) 🇳🇬
Loved this video. Patty is so vibrant and cheerful. Nigerians absolutely deserve better, not what the horrible government is making available. If it was by hardwork alone, Nigeria would be on top.
Funny guy! I’m still amazed at how far they truck all those sachets every day. Surely it’s easier to fill closer and save the money on fuel? Appreciate the comment and thanks for watching. Have a great weekend and hope you enjoy the Kano videos coming up. Another world up there 🇳🇬
Terrific video. the last time I was in Ikoyi was back in the 1980s. The contrast between the unimaginable wealth of the few and the abject poverty of many just a few miles away in Makoko, is hard for me to reconcile. But thank you for sharing. Your pronunciation wasn't bad either!
Thank you so much, very kind of you to say. Hope it was a nice trip down memory lane for you. More videos to come, I hope you enjoy them just as much 🙏 🇳🇬
This is amazing. You took me to places I have never been. Have a good time, brother I think local food is better for you than all those oyinbo food sha, they are only expensive but never filled up. See Atiku house with rough entrance, he couldn't maintain a single house properly then how is he going to maintain complex Nigeria?
You are too kind! Every comment is cherished. That pepper soup on Lugard was excellent. I guess when you have so many houses it’s hard to keep track 😉. Kano next, hope you enjoy coming up North 🙏 🇳🇬
@Waxbill I have never seen much of Kano but I do have Hausa friends in Lagos. They are very kind and they always try to please non-hausas. I have no doubt you are going to have splendid time. Be ready to eat different kind of food from what you are used to in Lagos sha. E ku ise ooooo
@@BaronCapital-lt5oz the ram suya was sweeeeeet. Very succulent and no onions or tomato, just suya spice. Thanks for being such a loyal and early supporter 🙏
Hello my loyal follower! Thanks so much for the comment and the help. I have the official translation as ‘the person with the pealed off skin’ but I guess it’s used for all foreigners so kept it simple. I’ve even seen many times light skinned Nigerians being call oyinbo. Have a great weekend and hope you enjoy the Kano videos coming up next 🇳🇬
@@Waxbill yeah it is used for Nigerian too,no matter where the person is from and has a light skin he/she will be called oyinbo in Nigeria,waiting for your next vlog 💃
Wow. That barber under a tree took me back memory lane. Last time I saw such in Kenya was in the 1980s-90s. Same thing for pure water satchets which are now illegal in my country due to banning of plastic bags.
A nice bit of shade for a trim, no need for fancy AC barbers! There really shouldn’t be any need for water sachets but it’s left to the people to create solutions for themselves, as always here. Hopefully it will change soon 🙏 🇳🇬. Thank you for watching and commenting
Would highly recommend, Keith! Much cheaper than those Lebanese barbers for us oyingbo. Always appreciate the comments, since video 1. Enjoy the weekend 🙏
Ola, thank you for commenting. Banana Island, very much so! We even shot a feature length documentary there which we’ll be releasing in the not too distant future. Keep your eyes peeled 👀 and hope you continue to enjoy the videos 🙏 🇳🇬
It’s so nice to hear that the effort is appreciated. Very kind of you to say so. A joy to be in Nigeria 🙏 🇳🇬. Come to Kano with us next time; another world from Lagos
5k, it’s much! All very friendly, just joking around. But very good pepper soup on Lugard if you’re in the area. Thanks for watching, always appreciated, have a good weekend and enjoy Kano up next. Seems like another world entirely. 🙏 🇳🇬
Very kind of you to say! That’s very much the plan, they just take a while to make… Kano next, hope you enjoy coming up North with us, another world from Lagos 🇳🇬
George! Very red faced indeed. An old Nursery rhyme… Come and visit and you might get the same?? Appreciate the watch and comment, a supporter since video 1 🙏
@@Mwoshe absolutely! We’ve even made a full length documentary where we show Banana Island extensively. Thank you for watching and hope you enjoy the videos going forward 🙏 🇳🇬
You are kind to say. I’ve walked these streets for many years but many areas of Lagos I don’t know at all well. Appreciate the watch and comment, hope you enjoyed. Kano up next, an incredibly different place indeed 🇳🇬
Hello sir, appreciate the watch and comment. Unless I’m mistaken, at 14:19 we show the receipt at The George Hotel and convert it to $8.62. Was this not available to you? We do the same when we go to Erik Kayser Café in Part 1. Please let me know if anything’s unclear 🙏
Pastor Bukkie, my guy! First off the mark, welcome back. Your support is so readily received. Almost from day 1! 🙏 Have a great weekend and hope you enjoy the Kano videos up next 🇳🇬
@@okeyumeano4464thank you! Yes, from what I’ve heard and read the meaning is slightly ambiguous but that’s the best translation I could find. Thank you for commenting and watching, always appreciated. Good to know if things are unclear for people 🙏 🇳🇬
