Liberia. I used to think Nigeria was the worst country on earth till I went to liberia. My village ugwu nkpa is more developed than the capital monrovia. Shithole dey and Shithole dey. Nigeria is shithole raised to the power 10. Liberia is shithole raised to the power one trillion.

Monrovia isn't that bad.

I lodged at Mambi Point Hotel when I was there. Visited the university too.

I remember transacting in liberty dollars and USD.

............................

Nigeria is still better than many countries ooo especially African countries though we are far from where we ought to be based on the enormous resources that we have.

It aint just about the hotels or Versities.
I have lodged in awesome hotels in Kampala but omo .

Axis313:
That country is just emerging from a brutal civil war that lasted for many years and caused large scale destruction.
Unlike Nigeria,it has no known natural resources to power the economy,therefore the development and growth will be slow.

Plus there are those wey still dey press the country neck...

Bangladesh bangladesh bangladesh very dirty place

bobonla:
Is there any country worseoff than Nigeria?

You'd be surprised..

You don't even need to travel to know things these days. If you know how, you just need situations and the ability to place yasef in them. For example.. with the right info and pictures, placing yasef in a crisis environment, you'd be surprised what your brain can achieve. VR dey learn.

But never mistake that for the real thing. Try travel small...


Lols...

Cameroon.

Me personally, It's hard to pick Cameroon Soley for the reason that they have constant light. They don't allow open grazing...but if you say corruption wise then it will be hard to pick them over us cos even with their so called worse corruption they have constant light! The only downside is that Paul Biya still owns them..that's the biggest downside for me..

Buy light recharge card at stores and load your Meter. Boom! you gats light and even with heavy thunderstorms..the light still stays unless few instances it offs then comes back within 30mins to an Hour..

O boy lol na constant light be my wahala 😂

Lanre1st:
Just because you never step out of this country

Yes Bro.
I've never even been to the airport once. Na only God fit help me. I Kno u will be the first to take me outta the country

I hope folks understand that it depends on the location you visited in all those countries mentioned.

You can't compare life in ogbomoso to that in lagos Island or Lekki

kingsavage:
you don't need natural resources to develop as a nation.
What you need is good leadership finish.

that's were your wrong a Good leadership without good followers is 0

Benin republic

Burkina faso.
I was shocked at the underdevelopment and how kids smoke cigarettes with reckless abandon.

Dont be fooled by the wide main roads, enter street and see something.

All of the countries above have constant electricity.

THE UNDERRATED COTONOU

Since I was born till date, we Nigerians have always looked down on a lot of neighboring countries like Cameroon, Togo, Benin Republic etc.
Well, you are not to be blamed if you are among those who look down on some of these countries, even when we have not had an opportunity to cross border.
Bro I schooled in Benin, that place is a complete mess nothing is cheap there, have you looked at the exchange rate lately Even if you buy a bag of rice for 20k cfa and you convert that money to Naira it’s about 40k Naira, please if you don’t have money don’t near that place please, Benin is a nice place if you’ve made money and your going there to spend it, girls there do hookup and the guys do yahoo, in terms of electricity the have 247 light and water but then, it’s not just worth it plus the scorching sun there Omoh

Well I was one of those people who actually looked down on most of these countries until I had an opportunity to sail round west Africa and the narratives changed.

Meanwhile I was completely marvelled the first time I visited Cotonou, the business hub of Benin Republic about 4 years ago when Patrice Talon newly took office
Two years after I re-visited, after touring round other west African countries. I spent 3 days here and without a waste of time, I concluded to relocate down to this place based on the level of development I saw, the security, serenity etc.

Finally I am now living here and I have no regret so far.

I will say this country is blessed with the best president who is working tirelessly to improve the living conditions of his beloved citizens and I am glad hearing citizens saying positive things about the president.

Things You Don't Know About Benin Republic...

*They have currently have one of the best roads/road network in west Africa

* Steady clean water supply by the government at an affordable rate
* 247 transport system cos of good security
* Night life is topnotch.. in fact their balling na night with street light almost every nook and cranny of the city.
* Amazing beaches with super duper fun.
* Nice Bilingual schools for your kids
*Stress free movement without traffic jam.
* Policemen scattered at every nook and cranny of the town to maintain law and order and not for stop and search.
* Drugs are only bought or sold at a registered pharmacies and not from quacks or roadside vendors
* Foreigners almost have same right with citizen and can't be treated anyhow

*This is the only safe transit route coming from other African countries to Nigeria. Of course you should know how that helps an economy.
*Internet is steady and fast but a bit expensive
*Pepper body no common here like naija
* ETC

Business Opportunities
From My Findings So Far...

*Tailoring is a place to explore especially when you sew English wears and Nigerian attires
* Sales of any kind of electronics which you can bring from Nigeria and Togo cos they are cheaper over there and expensive here.
* Sales of second hand phones and laptops, not forgetting their accessories too. Very lucrative
* Nigerian foods are in high demand especially areas where Nigerians live more. U go sell tire
* Sales of sewing machines(more of manual)and it's accessories are in high demand cos this is their major skill work with hairdressing.
* Phone and laptop repairs needs serious attention here cos most of the engineers are not competent enough
* Sales of motor parts/bike parts. Both are very good biz here too.
* Bilingual schools are still in high demand in some places including teachers.
* Transportation biz- As a naija man, u will do better plying from border to town, if you are a smart. As an okada rider, concentrate around Tokpa, Misebo and Beach, you will be fine too.
Those who are into okirika(2nd clothes, shoes & bags), it's still very profitable till date but you must have a good contact for you not to be cheated.
Etc


Let me drop my pen here for now. I will be sharing some photos of the places I have been to like the beaches etc . So stay tuned as we will be dropping more information to give you a comprehensive info about the country generally.

wayodude:
Nigeria......been to over 40 countries and Nigeria wins hands down.

You mean African countries Right??

Seme border across. Lol .. .........................

Burkina Faso, Papua New Guinea, and Togo.

- Burkina Faso: While it's true that Burkina Faso faces development challenges, it's also a country with rich cultural heritage and natural resources. Efforts are being made to improve infrastructure and living standards.
- Papua New Guinea: PNG is a diverse country with many cultures and traditions. While cannibalism has been practiced in some areas, it's not widespread. Port Moresby is indeed a major city, but there's more to PNG than its capital.
- Togo: Togo has made progress in recent years, but like many countries, it still faces challenges. Infrastructure development is ongoing, and the country has potential for growth.

Regarding electricity, unfortunately, none of these countries has constant electricity. Burkina Faso, PNG, and Togo all face energy challenges, including limited access to electricity and frequent outages.

These countries have unique strengths and challenges, and there's more to each nation than initial experience.

Bangladesh. That country is s certified shít hole! As in .... It is so backward they might as well be living in 1700s. You need to see the way drivers behave in traffic, it is total hell! A literal bumper to bumper, in fact you can off your engine, put your gear on neutral and you will still get to where you're going because other cars behind and beside you will push your car forward. There is no public bus in this country that is as wrecked as the buses in Bangladesh, NONE.
IT is a Muslim country, and I happened to be there during their Salah and Jizọs!! They were slaughtering the animals on the streets which were flooded because it rained the previous night, and the whole place was filled with blood stained flood water! As in you look out from the window onto the street and all you will see is river of blood everywhere!! Me I didn't go out oo! I no wan collect disease wey I no know.
