And yes i still see cars like that & even worse ones. |

@ Vicjustice - I am an African American woman, and did not mean to offend you. I just wanted to see pictures, other than what my boyfriend (who is Nigerian) has shown me.
@ Tegese - I will be visiting Nigeria next year - I guess I am a little anxious.
I really didn't know if i could trust your request since i wasn't sure your enquiry was from a genuine heart. You see, westerners usually ask questions about Nigeria (Africa in General) with negative curiousity: in most cases, they are correct in their opinions, but yet (though Nigeria is not an impressive country) nobody appreciates being insulted because s/he is from Nigeria. Forget about these selected photos, Nigeria (i know) is not an impressive country. That's it. |

You are one hand saying you do not trust her motive for requesting for naija pictures simply because she might want to denigrate Nigeria based on that, and yet you are as well indulging in that very act of demeaning Nigeria in the same very post! I reserve my comments forthwith. |

Initially, i thought nalijah07 request was flattery hence the challenge. My apology. Well, to respond to your observation, Mr Pahtahkee, here is my explanation. Though i get your point, but you should understand my comment this way: a lady would not tolerate anyone calling her ugly even though she is aware of the fact that she's not good-looking. I'm not expressing criticism towards Nigeria, i don't believe in hiding our ugly sides as well as i do not appreciate being reproached for reason of my ethnic background. I just wanted to be honest with the reality because, i knew that sooner or later, the real image (not the photos) of Nigeria will be more or less revealed. So, by saying that "Nigeria isn't impressive", i wanted to prepare her mind for the worse: Remember, a person who doesn't expect "much"doesn't get disappointed. |

Nalijah07, Nigeria has it's own unique charm, some parts are in bad shape, but overall, it's a nice place. The best way to get a good view is to travel there yourself.
These pictures are NOT in any way representive of the Real Nigeria, it looks bad in some pictures, I spent 12 years there, and I can honestly say I didn't see these poor areas. So based on my experiences, I'd say the bad areas are in the minority.
There are bad slumish areas in the UK and the US too, just seldom posted in the media.

And of course, not all places in any country are nice. Some pictures from the Dark Side. As I said earlier Nalijah07, don't base your opinions of Nigeria on the bad pictures, in all my years ther, I never saw places that looked remotely like this. . .
