🇳🇬 In no other West African country I came across this! So I didn’t expect Nigeria to have it either… 🤷🏽‍♂️

One of the biggest surprises during my trip to Lagos wasn’t the food, the markets or the traffic… it was discovering a modern railway running right through the city.

@authentic_traveling told me it connects Lagos with cities like Ibadan and Abeokuta, and just as we were talking about it… the train actually came flying past. 😅

I genuinely didn’t expect this side of Nigeria, and it’s moments like these that remind me why I love traveling: every destination has surprises that completely challenge your assumptions!

A legit train in Nigeria? Now I want to train travel in Nigeria. 🤗

❤️🇳🇬 #Nigeria #Lagos #train

Why did you say that do you think that Nigeria is a backup Country , in 18 century British were living Nigeria before the Nigeria Independent. We are civilised before the arrival of the Colonial Master

What do you expect? When it's only the bad news about the country it's what our bloggers and majority of the citizens are good at spreading 🤔
