I was in Lagos city in the boom town era times of 1980 thru 81 I resided at the one thousand and four National assembly staff complex Ikoyi Lagos. Shopped at key side and Martin street and balogun market regularly. Oyagbola was the national development minister then. There was a two hundred and twenty two billion u s dollars earmarked for development. Very rich times for the nation.
i wish my country was like this. im really proud of them, for what they did. to address the lagos/capetown comparison, i'd choose lagos over cape town 'cause lagos is at least a true mirror of africa (i mean africa, the black one)... while capetown aint really black, all the people who have been there know exactly what im talkin about... i hate black people who are jealous of their own brothers...many african countries should lookup to nigerians for what they achieved !!! so stop the jealousy
this video is meant for someone who has never been to Lagos Nigeria, to be able to see some of the well known sights and places in Lagos, as some people don't think there are good place in Lagos to visit. So the video is not about promoting Nigerian music or musicians, it was to show good places in Lagos. If we wanted to use Nigerian Music we would have used Sunny Ade,or Moroko Nwamaduka, people that really sings real Nigerian Music. The music we chose has one of the most beautiful drum beats
for some national proud reasons, i stopped watching this beutiful clip...how on earth did you leave our dear 2face, 9ice, p-square, MI, Kokomaster and the rest musicians' beutiful nigerian songs and u are playing indian, i mean indian song here. this is quite bad
@mystro997 : jealous much...lol... Both places represent Africa and are equally good so, the choice is urs and let others speak for themselves and take their choice.
@omoibile, jealous about what? a slum being compared to a fully developed city? show any western person a picture of both lagos & cape town and ask them which one would they consider to be the miami of africa....
@mystro997: YOU LACK CONFIDENCE IN URSELF HENCE YOU SPEND UR LIFE COMPETING WITH THOSE WHO DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOU. SOUTH AFRICA AND NIGERIA ARE BOTH DEVELOPING COUNTRIES. I WILL CHOOSE THEM BOTH TO LIVE. WE AFRICANS APPRECIATE OURSELVES SO DON'T COME HERE TO SPREAD UR HATE FILLED SEPARATIES LIFESTYLE YOU ARE BORN WITH. GET OFF WITH UR EVIL MIND SILLY WHITE TRASH.
@mystro997 Go back to your History class and learn a thing or two about Africa. We need to concentrate on a SLUM FREE world. We have slums in Miami too. and you still have slums in Cape town and of course in Lagos. Let's build a Slum free World. Too many people still starving in Miami Capetown and Lagos.These three towns are in World's richest Nations
@mystro997 You both need to be ashamed of yourselves.You have slums in Miami, Capetown and Lagos. Hunger is the same everywhere. Talk to the people that live in the slums. The most expensive mansion is probably in Lagos and the worst slum is also probably in Lagos. But we need to worry about the poor people.All of Miami would never be better than Africa because they have SLUMS too, and HUNGER.
Nice places featured here,but it would be nicer for tourists to see the places of history like where Lagos started from or for tourists to visit the birthplace of the founding father of Nigeria -Herbert Macaulay.Also to visit other historical sites in Lagos State like Badagry,Lagos.Just a thought
festacczz: Just say you live in the ghetto because Festac is not a ghetto when built it's the people that turned it to ghetto. Maybe you need to do a 75% videos of the Ghetto because all Lagos Island have no ghetto and in the Mainland only few places are more decent buildings than ghettos. Shanty houses were made by people mostly foreigners from neighbouring countries or non Lagosians in search of golden fleece. I'm a Lagosian and will have nobody diss my state.
Great pictures of Lagos,with a market of 20million people,there are lots to see and do,the state also boast of some of the best sandy beaches in Africa...

As extensive and diverse as Nigeria is, you could not find a Nigerian sound to compliment your video.

Beautiful concept, beautiful presentation. However, a Nigerian music (not Indian) would have complimented the video more. Good job.
