A white woman is jogging so what? I saw black people jog in predominately white countries all the time and I did not see whites creating threads on their blogs and websites to fawn over a black person jogging. Seriously, what's the big deal? Are whites not mere mortals like us? Why does this deserve our attention? Why does the average Nigerian battle inferiority complex?

Re: White Woman Jogging In Ikoyi On Lagos Island by Orikinla(m): 3:05pm On Jul 13, 2016
The most recent documentary films of the BBC and Al Jazeera on Lagos city did not show the true pictures of Lagos. They showed Lagos with mostly dirty people and filthy streets to paint an overall negative impression of the city that will never attract foreign tourists and foreign investors.
We have to correct their erroneous pictures of the commercial capital of Africa, the largest megacity with the highest GDP in the continent.

There are millions of white people in the US and Europe who think you cannot be safe in any city in Africa.
They don't know that Lagos city is safer than New York City.
Immediately after posting these pictures on my popular @247Nigeria on Twitter, the President/CEO of beBee, Mr. Matt Sweetwood connected with me and many top CEOs and celebrities with hundreds of thousands of followers started following me.

Hello Orikinla:

Matt Sweetwood is now following you. You are now connected and can send messages to each other.

As they day, a picture is worth a thousand words.

We saw the white woman jogging alone unaccompanied on the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge and waited for her to and fro.
That said a lot about her location of Lagos city.

[size=20pt]If nothing is special to you about a white woman jogging ALONE in the largest megacity in Africa, that does not mean it is not special to millions of others who have never seen or been to Lagos.
To them, it WOW! What a delightful sight![/size].

We are planning premieres of "Lagos in Motion" in different countries overseas to show millions of foreigners Africa's largest megacity in 2016.

Do you know that there are even millions of people in Lagos who have never seen or been to the Palms in Lekki!

Every October 11, to celebrate the United Nations' International Day of the Girl Child, we host hundreds of school children to watch films at the Silverbird Cinemas in the Silverbird Galleria on Victoria Island, and majority of them come from the outskirts of Lagoos. They said they have never seen or been to the Silverbird Galleria before.
So, there are local tourists in Nigeria who have never seen a white woman jogging alone in a city in Nigeria.

Intellectual comprehension is a big problem among many people in Nigeria.
The ignorance of one person can help to improve the knowledge of others.

Cheers.

You are bastard, poorly educated rat. Very rude and uncouth slavish fool. What's the big deal about a woman jogging in Lagos.

Going by ur later insultive explanation for why u had to create such absurd thread after been call upon for your tomfoolery by sane minds here.
98pc of visitors on nairaland are Nigerian citizens both home and in the diaspora ; not potential tourist to Nigeria. As bland(f) rightly pointed out(which you classlessly decended on her) , this is not the right medium for ur advocacy. Take ur thread to foreign site if u want to do ur country good. Nairaland will achieve nothing In that regard
You don't cut across as intelligent to me as your writing seemed. How old are you?

Take this nonsensical and low self esteemed thread down before Ogun destroy u idiot. Whiteman's slave

Thank you.
The ignorant opionated posters totally missed the point and preferred to make a public exhibition of their ignorance and stup-idity.
They cannot read and they cannot comprehend the premis of the picture.
Foreign images of Lagos and most places in Nigeria portray negative images giving a total erroneous impression of our environment.

The title of the same picture is "Tourist Jogging in Lagos" on Twitter, Instagram, Google+ and Facebook.
But for SEO I changed it on Nairaland. And it is working from the latest search results.
The white woman is not the main thing, but Lagos City.

Key words of White Woman, Jogging, Lagos are for SEO.
There is another Lagos in Portugal and is linked to the Lagos in Nigeria. But more than 90% of Nigerians don't even know this fact.

The crime rate in New York City is public knowledge.
It is even worse than the entire south west of Nigeria.
You can search on Google.
