Before anything, you need to understand that Lagos is not for the weak, you must be physically and mentally ready.
In case you’re planning to visit Lagos anytime soon or you are on your way to Lagos right now, this article is for you.
As a first-time visitor, there are some things you should expect in Lagos which are as follow;
1. Traffic
If you live on the mainland, you are aware of the distinction between a hold up and traffic.
Traffic is an extended hold up that lingers for hours, and trust me when I say that it is a sure thing to expect, especially in the evening.
2. Strange Collisions
The problem is that almost every driver in Lagos is insane.
Don’t be deceived by ties or anything; the inner madness can be triggered at any time, who would explain the collision of four buses side by side?
3. Supermarket Sales in Side Traffic
From gala, to cold minerals (soft drinks), Lagos trafic turns out to be a mobile supermarket because you can buy anything you need.
In Lagos, you can buy a mirror, a charger, a frame, a ring light, a puppy, land, a gas cooker, and so on.
4. Agbero NURTW
They are always aggressively waiting at every bus stop at any time of day to collect ‘owo union,’ “owo security,’ and ‘owo ero’ from bus drivers.
Any ‘owo’ that can be collected would be collected by them.
This is part of the reason why bus drivers are always angry.
5. Unjustified Insults
The smallest issue provokes the greatest insult.
You can be insulted for a greeting if you are not careful.
