2. The average American doesn't "understand" people outside their town or region, so there's no reason to believe most can grasp a different culture. And they confirm their ignorance every day regarding other cultures. Their cultural observations are garbage.

This is only where you made a little point. But corruption is not a way of life my friend. He has lived in a system that works and has every right to be blunt and criticize Lagos Airport. But keep on defending the indefensible though. You'll still die poorer than him, that's sure.

You forgot to add the fact that Americans call out BS bluntly.

This is not new to the world because another name for this country called Nigeria is Corruption. This happened at all levels from Buhari to local citizens.

Nigerian citizens see this as a normal thing. Early this year a Nigerian paid almost 400k to get spot for US visa interviews. At the end of the day he doesn’t even get the visa. Why are we paying for something that supposed to be free?

Also someone on nairaland (@odunayoKusa01) said he paid 380k to get interview spot for Poland work visa. Also he doesn’t get the visa.

My wife’s friend once introduced someone to me that claimed he could get Canada visa for 800k. My wife almost fell for this scam. The man never even been to Canada before. One year later I got the visa for my wife following the normal process. The bastard took 800k from my wife’s friend without getting her visa.

Nigerian citizens are more corrupt than the so called government officials because we always looking for ways to cut corners.

A Nigerian Vloger used to finding faults in Everything Nigeria, including the usual finger pointing at corruption at Nigeria airports and overblown negative comparison of Nigeria airports with the glorious honesty found at Airports everywhere not Nigeria had nothing to say for herself when her suitcase containing her expensive camera where stolen by Mauritius Airport officials.

Which vlogger?

1. The average American is an ídíot. Outside of the northeast, it's basically village people only while village people are uneducated, Americans are just stúpid.

2. The average American doesn't "understand" people outside their town or region, so there's no reason to believe most can grasp a different culture. And they confirm their ignorance every day regarding other cultures. Their cultural observations are garbage.

3. Oyinbos are deranged, racist m0r0ns. Their opinions on anyone who isn't white can't be trusted. It's like asking what an Arab thinks about Jews.

4. Americans are lazy af, and would rather do anything besides work to make money. That of course includes posting complete bs on YT.

5. It's common knowledge that people post bs on YT. And that people like that oyinbo will film for days or weeks to get the footage they want, and mangle the footage to make it more extreme. If that doesn't work, they'll pay people to fake it.

6. Many Americans are as insecure as they are stúpid. They love spreading lies (and consuming them) about virtually any foreign country, including every European country. It literally bothers them to think that someone will leave the US and enjoy their life, or that people in other countries are happy.

7. Yes, this problem exists. But it doesn't change the fact that oyinbos are notorious liars.

News like this made front page some days back, but seriously is there nothing to be done to curtail this rubbish going on at the airport?
cool
Incase you have a solution, don't limit it to the airport but every facet of the Nigerian society. In short, an average Nigerian is corrupt but we pretend as if we are not part of the Nigerian problem. Pretension, Hypocrisy and Manipulative tendencies are embedded in our genes.
What we need to do is to firstly and quickly deal with ourselves and stop shouting "Nigeria is a shithole",cos we all made it so.

Lagos airport is the first impression that foreigners get when they first land in Nigeria. Immediately they are met with attitude, deceit and extortion, which only reflects poorly on nigerians. Nigeria is an exemption because the poorest countries in Africa don't extort passengers at their airports. It doesn't even end there as the average Nigerian on the street is looking to extort oyinbo in the name of hustling. And we wonder why the politicians are so corrupt. It's apparent that the collective psyche of Nigerians has to change before any fundamental progress can be made.

Nigeria society is riddled with corruption and we are happy, celebrating and enjoying it most especially if it favor us.
We can all see where corruption is taking us to in this country so let us continue with it.
Nigeria moral decadence is second to none. We are celebrating, praising and glorifying Yahoo Yahoo, we are justifying their fraudulent activities using our condition as an excuse of finding solace in fraudulent activities. If it continues like this one day these boys will turn back to wire the little naira you and I have in bank.

the last thing I will do is join people like you defending nigeria while politicians are happy your defending them there by embezzling the remain money,I think your not a traveller because if you travel frequently you will put curses on our airport officials,your plane will arrive muritala Mohammed Airport by 7:a.m they will be delaying passengers while they re begging for money. Before you will leave Airport maybe 10 or 11 a.m ,what of going back to your base you will get to Airport with your food stuffs another problem ,as soon as I disembark from my plane in vienna am through with Airport in under 20munites,once I land nigeria my anger frustrations will start ,tufiaa for nigeria

The truth is that 99 percent of NIGERIANs have corruption engrained in their DNA..They only complain about corruption when they are not benefiting for it ...The kind of rot in Nigeria takes 100s of million corrupt people to achieve ...Send 99 percent of NIGERIANs to that airport and they will do the same corrupt things

You got that right, an average Nigerian will manipulate a system for his own benefit after criticizing others for doing same!

HOW MANY COUNTRY AIRPORTS HAVE YOU PASS THROUGH IN YOUR LIFE? AM ON A PLANE EVERY 3 /4 DAYS. SAY IT LOUDER LAGOS NIGERIA AIRPORT IS A LION'S DEN. YOU'RE A DISHONEST FELLOW.

My brother I have been to several airports in at least four different continents and I have never seen anything nearly as corrupt as Lagos.

It is either the family member of the guy you quoted or himself works in that airport or maybe he has never used the airport in his entire life.

Some people only go through Abj Airport and they have no clue what is obtainable in Lagos airport.

Personally I have never given anyone 1 kobo in that airport for over 10 years that I have been using it. Me I go frown my face die you can't see me dressing flashy anywhere near that airport ooh.

Why would anyone pay attention to what an American oyinbo has to say about life in Africa? You can't be serious.

Sadly what he says is true.

He isn't the first person to experience such nonsense.

It really says much about a country when their first encounter is a crooked immigration official.
