Hi Nick, please do visit Sri lanka đ„°đ„°
@@basithali1196 I visited a couple years back, loved it. Beautiful coastline!
Visit El Salvador pls
The woman that invited you into her home just glowed. Beautiful human.
Definitely!
I observed the same
Its called schuking and jiving. See a white man they was already calling him master. Let an fba walk by she wouldn't look twice.
@@DenaliVision I call people boss or bros too here in Nigeria, so itâs normal
Lol thatâs because sheâs bleaching her skin
Having visited Nigeria and worked with Nigerians, I can tell this is accurate. Nigerians are very special nation. Extremely hard working, extremely positive despite the hardships, extremely full of life and love despite the stereotypes. What an incredible nation!
The evil is the government and British indirect rulership. The people are good and friendly.
@@RealityStand true
@@RealityStand Its always like that, here in Brasil is the same thing ...
@@neroproducoes4157: Was Brazil colonized by British? British vowed never to let Nigeria have their way because of crude oil and many natural resources and they are using Fulaniz tribe to have control over us but we must continue to resist no matter how hard it is.
It just that people love to paint the country has some sort of active 24/7 warzone when it really and this is really deterring tourists away from our nation
20:46
âHow old is the driver??â
*13 yr old turns around*
â18â
Unanimous agreement â18 yeah 18â
Lol đ
Man I love Africa
I came here for this comment, he wasn't even the first person to respond hahaha
The woman who invited you into her home was so awesome, holy crap. Her smiles and attitude is so positive
I love her sheâs so sweet â„ïž
people like her are very rare in the west because of individualism.
and so friendly and genuine !
Her babies will never starve. Goddamn.
The question is. How can anyone who is living in a slum with massive corruption, pollution, lack of amenities and over breeders who are just adding to the problem by increasing the numbers all competing for survival, for whatever is available to capitalize off of. Where does all the sewage go.
As a Nigerian I just want to say this is exactly how it is generally. Everyone smiles despite all the hardships. I'm a proud Nigerian. Also there are also far better places than those he recorded. So don't think this is how everyone one lives. Its just a country with much inequality due to economy and government. Ich lebe jetz in Deutchland.
Wo in Deutschland?
Who was the yellow dressed lady? Was she mad? She could scare away the tourists with that voice lol. Why she was shouting? Or maybe she was having fun i guess
Schön, dass Du in Deutschland bist, alles Gute fĂŒr Dich :)
@@lazzykathrine5951 yes she was having fun and being sarcastic with Nick. Thatâs how older Nigerian ladies are. They are loud but they are having fun with you
I'm also a Nigerian. It will be interesting to know how you went to Germany. Ich lerne Deutsch, aber es ist so schwer.
I work with a Nigerian lady. Sheâs the pharmacist. She is the nicest, hardest working, sweetest lady. I adore her. She is always so kind. Sheâs super lovely to chat to and easy going. I adore her and all Nigerians
9:50 - "I believe you are my family, I need to embrace you." A message for the world.
When that lady said she believes you're family, I felt like we are all family, it was just so touching! It's so good to know there are good people all over the world, she really managed to put a big smile on my face đ
MONEY MONEY!!!
@@solmoman what do u mean by that ? What money ?
As a Nigerian still in Nigeria đłđŹ I like the coverage so far and actually socializing with the common man in đłđŹ. We aren't so different just different circumstances
Well said!
Beautiful country. I hope to visit Nigeria one day with my daughter (she's half NigerianđłđŹâ€ïž).
what about the yellow dressed lady? Why was she shouting unnecessarily?
great energy
Nigerians I met were all creative and smart people. Specially women. I was amazed how much knowledge they shared with me about life. Forever grateful to my Nigerian friends. And by the way fufu and the delicious red stew is my favourite food. đ„°
That lady was so happy you guys took her up and visited her place. You can tell it made her entire week to have some fellowship with some new people.
Lovely lady!
She was being noisy she the leader of the village wife she was checking you out more than anything in my opinion
Undoubtedly she was pleasant though

The lady that invited them in her home, may God bless her and her family, such an amazing spirit
A Nigerian expat in the US was a home health nurse and helped take care of someone very near and dear to me. She was one of the most amazing people Iâve ever met. So seeing this video was extra awesome. Much love to Nigeria!
I must have been Nigerian in my past life. I love the Nigerian people so much. I even have a Nigeria T shirt! Some of my best clients have been Nigerians. Much love and respect.
Thank you family.
Thank you.
Wow, even a t-shirt!
just watching this I want to go there so badly. I wish I could absorb some of the beautiful energy of the people and carry it with me wherever I go!
@Paul The energy is in the atmosphere. Lol
Wow, that woman inviting you over because she felt like you were family and wanted to embrace you! Love it.
Beautiful lady she is
The lady who invited you into her home was so kind! Thatâs a million dollar smile for sure âșïž
Lol
The lady that invited them to her home was absolutely stunning! Beautiful soul
I thought the same! Nice lady
Lmao I love my Nigerian people, weâre real comedians đ when the taxi driver said, âtake me and go with youâ he actually meant it. Living in Nigeria is super hard.
Great video as always. Iâm subscribing now for more. Well done!

@@jyde50 there is no need to be upset little man
@@deathntaco i wont be as long as africans content creators starts to film all the homeless people in western countries.
@lagondo "Take it easy". If you feel uneasy about the world viewing Nigeria. It's the "poverty centre of the world" so obviously poverty and hustling are more widespread than a few costly facilities catering for the rich and middle class.
It's the reality for most Nigerians.
I know that feeling of the taxi driver when he tells you that he would follow you wherever you take him, they are tired of the country and the situation, a bit funny and at the same time very sad, nice chapter Nick really felt the streets đȘđŒ
Thank you, Lenny. Indeed you know that feeling from Venezuela. Sad indeed.
Yet he has a car and has a job as a driver.
@@jyde50 but even if he's somewhat employed/self-employed he knows his country has no future for him.
@@aimarramadhan2380 I doubt that, but what i do know is that your life has no future.
@@jyde50 to be respect are you trying to insult me just because I was too honest about the driver's point of view when he said "I will follow you anywhere country" to him?
And of course I do have a future and thanking God with the life and future he provided me.
A friend of mine in Austria married a beautiful woman from Nigeria a few years ago. He is german and the marriage was pretty nice. Nigearian people know how to make party and they are very kind people with a big heart.
It's so sad to see what corrupt politicians do to their brothers and sisters in Nigeria and other countries in the world. Hopefully there will be better times in the near future!
I was somewhere in this city when you filmed this vlog. Honestly the most realistic vlog I've seen about Nigerian living from a foreigner. Kudos!

Thank you as always my friend, hope you'll enjoy!
Check out sabbatical he does it all sol with just a camera, no protection no guides
The woman said it all, it's hard to cope, we are so poor". It's both heart breaking and heart warming to see so many smiling faces, always friendly and polite, and a tireless "what's your name," Mr Nick. Yes, we get the disservice of mainstream news. Thank you for bringing the whole truth to the world. God Bless you, Nick, and the wonderful people of Nigeria.
i've stuggled with many things in life. From depression, to drug addiction, to suicidal thoughts.
Watching how so much of the world lives, helps me appreciate how much I take for granted.
I've spent that last 2 days in tears watching your videos. While depressing it its own way, it also creates a level of gratitude and appreciation
We are soo bored with TV.!! THANK YOU for letting us travel with you. I tell people all about where Iâve been lately. You are amazing nick! Keep up with good work.
Thank you, Deb! Much love!
100% !!! I would love to travel & get to experience every country . Deff makes u feel like you are traveling with him
No matter what we are facing now I still Love my country Nigeria đłđŹ
the countryside looks beautiful and the people are so lively
You don't have a choice, you better love your country
Shut up, which mumu country, stay stay and suffer only you okoko
It's so sad to see Nigerians struggling to the point that they have the mentality that outside Nigeria is better. Things will gradually improve and Nigeria will become the land of milk and honey somedayđ
Amen đđ
Omo.... Na God we dey look ooo
I think that that mentality of outside your country is better, is in many countries in the world. And I think is human, we mostly see the other house is better off.
Aameen
@@bappatijjani9017 But we don't have it in SA. South African always think there is no country better than their in Africa. I'm SAn by the way.
I visit Nigeria often, I also live in Ikeja for some time!!! The Nigerian Government is very corrupt, police corruption, bribes, Napa light issues, lots of proverty, 419, yahoo boys, and kidnapped, if government was good lots of these things wouldn't be happening so much But Nigeria has good things, believe in education, the best hospitality, food delicious, people strong hard working, very intelligent people, and can dress very well oooo, they like beautiful big things ooooo, Nigeria has some very beautiful area Victoria Island, Abuja Lekki, Ikeja, Festac Town homes are georgous, people live like king and queen ... If government wasn't corrupted, Nigeria would be one of the best countries in the world đ!! God Bless Nigeria, I pray things get better in Jesus name đłđŹđłđŹđłđŹ
The last episode was a rude awakening, it burned down my ego, greed, and selfishness to the ground. It made me realize how fortunate I'm just to be on this side of the world. At the same time, another human being is struggling to get through the day and living under the worst possible conditions, just because he is on the other side of the world.
Husband is a Railway employee, herself a Nurse and a Tailor by profession, and lives in a moderate house provided by the govt. which is a comfortable life compared to others. If that lady says "Life is hard" just imagine what others would say?
Thatâs only o e side of the story. Think of the family values, communities that barely have homeless people because people will open doors to you, fresh food, one of the best tasting foods in the world, amazing work social life balance (yes Nigeria makes you realize you only live to pay bills in America)....no bill to pay because you own your water in Nigeria...you are your own government and basically can live off grid in the middle of the city. Probably the only place remaining where you can truest be free. Most of them donât even pay taxes....no covid, there are benefits to living in Nigeria...thatâs why I am going back after 10 years in the west
@@tosinojo7310 paying taxes with a government that actually put that money to improve peopleâs life is greater than just paying taxes that full politicians pockets or not paying taxes and live like this people⊠Who would chose ti live in that conditions? Is a nightmare
You should watch other videos of Nigeria.
@TRIDAZ Thatâs soooo sad and very insensitive too say given Black Americans history and what they went through.
@@tyaler9805 don't believe on what that guy said just ignore him.
The reason why I like this channel more than other travel vloggers is because Nick goes places many wont go and his editing skills are on another level.
You should check out Sabbatical as well. He recently visited Nigeria and went to similar places: Makoko, Ibadan, etc.
@@triplenalysis Sabbatical got in some sketch places and moments lol. But good content tho
@@triplenalysis western people love poverty porn.
He goes places many won't go and yet it is the only place one would look unto in justifying the image of a Nation đ€Š
@@jyde50 prob bc itâs like a new world. Def something you donât see everyday in developed countries
When they were shouting Oyinbo it reminded me of the first time I went through a slum area in Lagos. The people are so welcoming. I hope you truly loved embracing a new experience.
western people and slums, how about the homeless camps in your country??? you don't need to go to africa to see slums.
I really canât believe she said slum
The crackhead hood in your country should be on CZcams đ€Šđœ
@@forttruck they are?
Oyinbo pepe is what was always shouted at me!!! I used to reply SHEGE
All of their smiles are amazing. They are so sweet and loving all the time despite their hardships. This opens my eyes to so many things and puts a new perspective in me. I love their friendliness and overall how they are positive regardless of what they are going through. Amazing people and it makes me want to visit.
You'd enjoy it when you visit, i wouldn't mind being your tour guide, You're welcome
Nigerian people are very warm and friendly. I would love to visit oneday, and make new friendships and see all the wonders of this land. I am enjoying this series very much!
Glad you are enjoying, Nigeria is incredible!
=))) go, please go..I can't wait to hear about your visit in the news.
@@ExcessCongruence lmao.. thats messed up.. but funny
Even me i like them i'm just afraid of terrorism there and kidnapping
The misconception that Nigeria isn't safe to travel to is weird ..you are way less likely to be killed/kidnapped in Nigeria than you're likely to die from a random mass shooting in the U.Sđ
As a Ghanaian born in Nigeria watching this vlog makes me miss Nigeria so muchđđŹđđłđŹ
Time to come from a visit!
How different is Ghana compared to Nigeria ? Is it similar in many ways buf still it's own thing .. kinda like India compared to Pakistan? Thanks man .. hope all is well wit you
@@MoAli-wm4of They're like brother and sister, Nigeria is bigger by population as well as land mass but Ghana is lot calmer; Nigeria largest city (Lagos) population can almost be compared to the entire population of Ghana which currently is at 30 millionbased on the recent census conducted recently....
@@IndigoTraveller I guess I should start planning the tripđđâïžđ
@@MoAli-wm4of Lagos is not Nigeria. There are many states (36 plus FCT) in Nigeria, many are quite different to Lagos. Many places are actually quite calm in Nigeria, but the country gets incorrectly and unfairly characterised with the mayhem and over crowdedness of Lagos. People think once they've been to Lagos they have seen Nigeria it's not the case. It's like going to NY and thinking you've seen the whole country or that everywhere in the US is like NY. That's not true.
The world needs more people like you. Idk why but your videos evoke so much emotion in me. Sadness, compassion, disbelief, amazement, you hit every note. Your videos feel so human. You're a very special kind of person Nick, I hope you are protected everywhere you go and just know all of us back at home care and support you.
Thank you for these words :)
You captured it so well...yeah what you said.
@@IndigoTraveller you are exceptional...changing the world 1 video at a time.
Yeah, I agree, it takes a special person to do this kind of thing.... To stay friendly despite all the begging... It's not in the movies, but as one walks around, being a foreigner, you regularly get asked, or tried to sell something to you, or "take me with you" was one I have had as well.... But I have found, be kind, engage, respect and honor, and the people will like you, even if you don't dish out money everywhere....
Anyway, Nick is walking out his calling, not many can do this sort of thing.
I personally feel why his videos are so great, is that they're not imbued with the 'white saviour complex' that are usually seen in vlogs from Africa or other so called developing nations.
My family are from Nigeria - the Yoruba people to be specific. I was born in the đŹđ§, but I've been fortunate to have visited several times over the years. I love it, and I will, together with my husband - who is from the Caribbean and will be visiting Nigeria for the 1st time- be visiting Nigeria later on this year.
I'm really impressed by the filming and the level of respect shown by your gaze, so I'll definitely am subscribing to your channel!

Oh, just to point out, the gorgeous woman that invited you into her home, I think you got her name wrong. Her name is likely IYABO, not 'Yabo'. I know, as its one of my name's as well. It means 'mother has returned'.
That wonderful lady that invited you into her home made my whole heart melt. What an incredibly charming woman who just emanated friendship, kindness and grace.
You are doing the work that many 'biggest' TV channels can't do with a huge team and budget... Keep up the good work man!
Thank you Mert!
More like wonât do.
Yes. He's getting you all the Africa negativity well.
Nigerians are such nice people... very welcoming... and lots of fun... full of life...hardworking ready to hustle and make it no matter the situation... that's why no matter what the bad leadership (Politicians) does, Nigerians always still excel in their individual life.
Come to the north and you'll know that not all Nigerians are nice people.
Unfortunately, as per the comment above mine by Fidelis auve, there is a bubbling civil ethnic bigotry and unwarranted and unhelpful calls for foreign militarial intervention by some of those living in the oil rich south who feel they will thrive if they successfully annex the south. They wish to strip the country of a sizable portion of it's oil and it's major ports. They often come to videos like these and asserted that what is depicted within them is fully representative of Nigeria, as they assert that the government is cause of all their troubles.
The region depicted in this video, though somewhat in need of some updating, is full of people with stories, and there is nothing wrong with sharing those stories and recognising the importance of said stories; however, I do not understand why people keep saying all of Nigeria is like this, it has many metropolitan regions of significant size.
Here we go. Nigeria is a country that I've heard of since childhood.A country from my fantasy. It will become a beacon of hope and prosperity to the world. Believe and achieve.
Amen
Beautiful video. Nigeria is a very stressful country but Nigerians are strong. Thank you for coming to Nigeria
i cant believe you visited my hometown! when people say they are exploring nigeria they mostly just mean lagos. It's nice to see ibadan for once. Al so i think you passed my neighborhood on the train.

Incase you were wondering, the young man sang "Longtime" by Wizkid and Skepta.
Really like the fact that you actually interview random people you meet, that's the most accurate way to get a feel for it really is living in the country
Nigerians are really different. Everyone I have ever met from that country are like no one I have ever met.
Yep, we are one of a kindđ
@Fred Azbell đđđ it's a huge country indeed with over 650 different cultures, traditions and languages
My fiance was born and raised in Ibadan. Relatively safe and calm. But high unemployment, power outages constantly, some ghettos there. It's hard to survive unless you have a Gov't job.
My hearts go out to the Nigerian people . Even through all the struggles they still manage to survive and have an upbeat attitude
The total chaos, all these colors (and smells probably), it is incredible footage. This beats National Geographic.
Thank you!

@@ibibiotutorials3742 reread the op comment again. No where did he say people smell. If you go to a market do you get a smell from the market..? Oh wait how about a restaurant do they have a smell? How about an area with a factory/ processing plant....

Thanks for visiting the city I grew up in years ago, Nigerians are happy and good people. If we got our leaders right, a lot will be much better for most people who just want to keep their heads up and make a living. Thanks for taking the bold step to go experience all the good and no-so-good sides of what it means to live in Nigeria.
PS - the woman in yellow asking for money is not actually aggressive. That's the way Ibadan people harass you dottingly when they know you are not from town lol
It's so hectic, the pace, the traffic, the people, but it is buzzing.
How much slower paced we live in the UK, I bet this is amazing to experience first hand. The roads wow, it's insane, but the energy is amazing.

my grandma works (day and night no pay) for a program called pathway run by the Lds church and she has counseled students from all over... right now her students are in nigeria and as of this morning she left for a 2 week trip in nigeria for pathway. my grandma tells me a lot about the nigerian people and how kind and welcoming they are. she has a student in nigeria that she has known for years and despite her hardships has managed to work hard for her schooling. this student has the most beautiful smile and face and calls my grandma her mom and my grandma calls her "my nigerian daughter". NIGERIANS ARE GREAT PEOPLE!!!
you should come to the east of Nigeria, try Portharcout, enugu or calabar. yould sure have a nice time.
You keep the people in their dignity, despite their desperate circumstances. I really like that. - Nice editing too: from the off we hear the rapping man again in the end and the beautiful sentence: "make his pockets smile". This echo of your day trip shows much depth and meaning. Basically: "this is, what I, Nick, take with me..." The joy of life and artistic talent together with the commercial attitude. So nice. - It has been 8 years since I (another Ojibo) was in Nigeria last time. I miss it so much! Greetings from Holland
Wow, beautiful words. Thank you Frank, you are very poetic, I appreciate that. Thank you! Nick :)
My Sunday morning routine:
1) Wake up
2) Get my coffee
3) Watch Nick's new video
Thanks Ryan, enjoy your morning :)
Just finishing the Nigeria series with this one, I got to say, what awesome and beautiful people in this country, so welcoming and hard working, we could all learn from them something which is incredible, thank you for putting this out there Nick. Wish you the best wherever you are
It's really impressive how well you connect with the people just in passing even. You are so respectful and calm I think it makes even strangers trust you and be very open with you.
When I heard the name of Ibadan and saw the warm-hearted people and lifestyle there, I couldn't help myself but to research the history behind it and the city of Abadan in Iran that Nick had visited in the Iran series!
Although I only came across the nominal similarities between the two cities, but I found many similarities between the people...!
How they are both welcoming, full of life and beautiful. And how warm and colorful these two cities are! And of course super spicy food!!!
I send my love to my brothers and sisters in Nigeria and I want them to know that we Iranians are very similar to them in these bad economic conditions and inefficient governments.
So I believe that we are all in this together and hopefully one day we will solve these problems together.
I know the situation is very difficult but escape never is the solution. In Iran we have a saying: "Others planted and we reaped, so we must plant so that others can reap."
I don't know if I can explain my purpose well to you, but all I'm trying to say is that in our experience in Iran, when some people left the country for a better life, the government became more and more powerful and the people went down and down every day. If you watch the Iran series that Nick put together you will easily understand what I mean.
Sorry if I talked too much and if I had grammar problems in my comment.
Many thanks to Nick for his wonderful vlogs and a big hug for the hardworking people of Nigeria.
That is my town of origin and where my dad and mum both come from as well. It is a mood all of its own

Thanks for watching, Jim. It is quite chaotic but beautiful and fascinating simultaneously :)
I live in Ibadan and I enjoyed the fact that I can watch the story of this city told from another perspective. Incredible work. Keep being amazing
Thank you Ayo!
Wow I am thankful for living in the US but I have never seen kindness and such a pure soul as the woman who invited them in. I wish I was surrounded by people with such kindness and love.
I am really enjoying this series! 7,000 - 10,000 A day in Ibadan is a lot! Average salary in Nigeria is 30k a month that auntie is making 210,000 a month in Ibadan! I know a teacher in Ibadan that does not make that much. Yes there are serious issues in Nigeria but I am not too fond of those who will try and get money off folk. The auntie was hoping that guy would 'dash her small change' The auntie is doing much better than the average Nigerian. Her phone is better than mine and I live in the West.
The 7000 a day is probably sales and not profits. However, she's better off running her snacks business than most people in a 30000 minimum wage job
@@oscaranswers Very true! Much better off. This vlog really highlighted how those who are not in the corporate sector can thrive money wise. Look at the lady selling cat fish. Those numbers shocked me!

I think you can tell a lot about a people by how clean their living space is. Although the houses are old and patched the yards seem clean and kept with a sense of pride. I know in my American city I'm about the only one who ever picks up any trash. My town is a giant garbage heap.
Liar
@@iamtikesh5897 lol so triggered
What⊠in the fuck⊠are you talking about? Only the few wealthy and important people in Nigeria live like that. The rest are barely getting by day to day and living in one step above squalor.
Itâs like youâre closing your eyes to the reality shown in these series.
@@Zei33 I think you missed the point of what was being said.
@@Zei33 so the people in this video are the wealthy nigerians right?
You could make millions with this series on Netflix/Amazon Prime and so on. I havenât seen such unique pictures documenting Africa for a long time if not for the first time in my life. You are obviously the king of travel documentaries on CZcams now!
People here are so friendly even if you don't know anyone you can survive
The lovely lady who invited you in her appartement melted my heart.
I feel happy watching this right now. Now I miss home alreadyđą, thanks so much for visiting my country Nigeria đłđŹđđ
Happy Christmas and a happy new year in advance to anyone watching right now. God will definitely gonna protect us all through this Year. Amenđ
Much love to you and your home country!
i want more friends in africa đ«
nd nigeria
Are you still in Africa
See this Bini girl, If truly you dey miss am like that, You go try come back na make another person go
Another beautiful episode. I love how immersive your videos are. This episode highlights many things but the âWARMTHâ of Nigerians clearly stands out for me.
Nick you are doing amazing sweetie đ
Seriously as a Nigerian in Canada, itâs so interesting to see how people are faring in Nigeria. Not that I have not seen the news but to watch this raw itâs eye opening. Makes me really grateful and also Nigeria from your POV, love it.
Thanks Nick. You have shown me many things that I have never seen before. I always had respect for Nigeria but now I know a little bit more about this amazing country.
Thanks for joining the adventure :)
I wanted to travel to Nigeria when I was younger. Amazing country.
Where are you from?
@@Biobele I live in Israel, but I'm from Los Angeles. I had a lot of Nigerian friends in LA and met the king himself, Fela Kuti.
@@michaellerner3764 Nice
Nigerians speaking fluent english!. Their hospitality is extremely impressive. Looking good at heart.
You see the most beautiful, lovely, fabulous, adorable, glamorous, well civilized, well educated human species in the end when Lingoda sponsor part comes up 24:50
I love learning about different cultures. Thank you for what you do, Nick. Love and hugs from Norway! Please stay safe!
The "money money" woman was one you wouldn't mess with, but I am sure I saw the hint of a smile.
I don't do too badly travel wise, but your videos open up a while new world. Stay safe, keep travelling and keep sharing it with us.
The other guy was laughing along, I think the money money woman just has a very dry way of delivering humour, she only seemed a bit hostile because we had no idea what she was saying
The guy talking about making pockets smile was the one lol
@@Denizen36 exactly. She was being sarcastic and playing with him. Itâs how the older ladies are in the country - especially Yoruba people are very dry and sarcastic with humour
The guide that you had seemed like such a lovely and kind man.
Another great video of Nigeria. Brings back many good memories of when I lived in Lagos and would take many weekend trips around Nigeria including Ibadan, Jos, Kano, Abuja and others. There were no trains operating back then, so great to see that the Government is investing in infrastructure to more the public around. Keep these videos coming Nick!
Nicholas.....I've been waiting for your videos. OMG. You are the only vlogger I have my notification on for. I was about to e mail you lol. I have Indigo Traveller fever really badly. I have seen every single one of your videos. You take us to parts of countries no one ever will. Your content is 100% the best! And that you are using your platform to change the world is phenomenal!
You make it feel like I'm actually there with you. This is way better than regular TV đș I look so forward to your videos man, keep doing what you're doing !
Thanks Tim!
Incredible series Mr. Nick!! Nigeria đłđŹ is a beautiful country!!
What a beautiful episode! Well edited and exciting to watch!
You can learn one or two here
@@diskitube what can she learn? to film only markets and slums?
@@jyde50 how to edit
My question to TIGRESS is...would your pro African channel's subscribers welcome white INDIGO NICK..to your channel??
I'm sad to read your comment. If you don't understand what this obnoxious man is doing and are fooled by his 'fake smile' content that lacks context or balance, then no hope for young people of this continent. Beware when they come to physically recolonize, under the guise you are inferior!! The barrage of negative images like this, have a purpose. Free your minds.
Nick, you're ability to share these experiences with an eye like a true documentary from National Geographic is stunning, and so much appreciated. Thank you and I look forward to the next part of travel in Nigeria. See you!
Your videos are genuinely amazing. Thank you for doing what you do and sharing it with us all!
That woman that is a nurse melted my heart.
Wonderful woman inviting you into her home, that smile was so infectious, absolutely beautiful!
Thank you for the work you are doing showing all parts of the world. It has really opened my eyes to many different types of people with many different types of perspectives!
Such an entertaining and informative video. Thanks for exploring my beloved country.
âAfter doing things like this you donât just make him smile with a handshake you make his pockets smile.â
Great video!
