- In this episode, I start my journey through Nigeria and I'm on my way to Abuja to sort out a visa for Cameroon. On the way, I pass many, many checkpoints - and you never know what the response will be, or who is trying to stop you on the road. So I try to keep riding, but sometimes, I have to stop..

I wouldn't motorbike through Nigeria if they paid me money. Absolute madness.
racist
@@Doorknobz I would say a realist. It's just not safe to ride there with few tens of thousands in equipment. Nobody minds the people living in Nigeria. It's simple - corruption leads to high crime rates.
So true. Especially being a woman. That's mad.
@@Doorknobz Yea because improvised roadblocks every kilometer with armed random guys are accepted as normal where you come from.
These r narcists. They just want some attention to keep their self worth up n running lmao
Nigerian police will never disappoint you when it comes to disappointment 😂😂
It was only one officer who asked for money
@@faroukmohammed2478 it was one too many.
🤣🤣
Sad had they been paid accordingly these desperate measures that they take everyday wouldn't have happened
Scary place If you ask me, You can't even trust the Authorities.
Those 2 crazy cops were sacked and thats is coz of your video. Keep exposing such police corruption everywhere you go
link?
Are they not getting paid?
they were not that serious man, they were like jocking.
@@dancCONSTANTno, no they weren't. No officer at a checkpoint would ever be so stupid to joke about a bribe on camera. The court deemed that they were trying to get a bribe from her. You saying that the judges and the top brass in the police are misunderstanding?
@@dancCONSTANT You underestimate their shamelessness and overestimate their intelligence.
This Woman has balls as big as an ostriches egg. I have no words to describe her daring guts. She is one brave woman I wouldn't want to get into a dispute with 😂 💪
Fine line between brave and a Darwin Award
foolish is a better word
Agree@@SarahNGeti
lol
damm. she is good at driving motorcycle.
Those were the friendliest corrupt cops I've ever seen.
He was serious tho
I'm just saying if you had to pick which corrupt cops you run into.. Still rather run into no corrupt cops though.
@@brentgordon404I think he wanted money but he didn't get too aggressive or anything. I guess ItchyBoots had more experience than most of us so she didn't feel compelled to give him money. If I were in Nigeria tomorrow, and police officers with guns asked me to give them money...I'd probably feel I had to give them some money.
Corrupt cops are always friendly 😂
I dont know if they are corrupt or if they are just screwing with people.
The two police officers have been dismissed from the NPF for demanding money, others will learn to do their work professionally
evidence of that?
@@olivergilpin evidence trending on tiktok they are dismissed its true
If that is true thanks for letting us know.
@@zfcsczf
Could you put the link.
Yes it true. They have been dismissed
I love how Nigerians say 'You are welcome.' It shows they are naturally good people❤️
As for you young lady, you really have guts, I must say👌
Oh my…
You are blind to your own culture
If you see someone better than you
you become friendly to get some chenge
I’m amazed by your travels, I’ve been through the whole United States and some of Canada, but your adventures are definitely more in the thick of things! Safe travels to you Noraly😊
As a Nigerian,it is really embarrassing to see our police demanding money like that
The event was a matter of joke but the lady took advantage to seeks more viewers.
In ratio to the lots of Nigerian policemen she met on her journey within the context of that video, how many policemen fit into your statement "our police"?.
To you is embarrassing, to them is a norm, they called it roja....😆😆.
@victor-valou
No, it was not a joke 😂😂
it was a joke. He did not want money
The two officers were publicly stripped of their uniform and dismissed from their duties because of this video.I admire your ability to ignore the monumental risk and live the adventure. I wish I had the same courage.
How do you know this?
they've just been rehired, with promotions. Its Africa, after all
If I were this woman, I would never return to Nederlands. The two guys are waiting for her... If they cannot be police man, they are going to be criminals.
Serves them right. Nigeria lots of scammers. But after watching it it seemed like they were joking & not serious so I am confused.
@@davidtorok9542 the most stupid comment of the year
They asked for money,
She gave them retirement 😂😂😂
“You’re welcome”.. most of the policemen on the road are very kind. I’m a Kenyan and I like this.
yes i thought it was so kind of them to say
May be the police earn not enough money ,may be.
But ofcourse its not a good reputation tourists will not come to corrupt countrys but even worse .Money and investors wont come to nigeria .
Noraly, your reaction to the man who asked for money was perfect. Made him change his mind very quickly! Safe travels to you!
I love the way Noraly handled herself, what a champ. The man only let her go because he was told my the other smaller officer, that another officer in the parked car said they should let her go. These guys are a disgrace.
He told her to go because his boss in the Nissan NV truck order him to let her go because her bike has camera. The conversation was made in Yoruba.
@@ebenezeraina9133😂 really aha okeey. Thnx for ur explanation. 🙏
@@ebenezeraina9133
Yoruba? No kidding?
I had an online friend, once, from Ogba, who could speak Yoruba... 😮
Muito corajosa!
Noraly your determination to ride in lands that are challenged by poor governance is incredible. Your videos show good honest locals just trying to live lives while putting up with poor roads & never ending road blocks. Your videos show how people endure & overcome their circumstances. Stay safe.
Those road blocks have a "name" its Milking pots,....terible also for the lockal people.
Mad respect. You handle yourself in precarious situations with finesse.
A very strong woman both mentally and physically, it's all in the approach and she has it firm and respectful, safe journey.😊
It doesn't help her if someone wants to do her laundry or is after the luxury goods. Then the crying is big - but you have to expect it when you take such a risk.
This young woman is more than brave but also probably very lucky that nothing bad has happened to her. I hope and pray she will stay safe.
Brave? Or something else? I'm blocking this channel now because I don't want to find out the eventuality.
@@NorthRock
There is definitely something she's putting her trust on this can't be ordinary.
@@mizta_pita my best bet is... she's CIA.
@@mizta_pita nothing is just a clean clear heart
@@NorthRock I believe you & it all seems like an accident waiting to happen.There have been may pitfalls.I really believe Nora the Explora has guardian angles somewhere....if thats a thing.... but her riding from S1 E1 has scared & enthralled me from the start.I cant help but keep watching & many times expected the worst but here we are.She made a movie in the end....Soooo? i keep watching lol but i sympathize with you.
Your good natured but firm response to the road blockers is impressive. I would hate to be a truck driver in this country. I love seeing the world through your experiences. Best to you !
Your videos are incredible!! Your guts to travel is amazing!!! Also, your lovely laugh brings a smile on my face always😊 Stay safe
I have just realized your videos have become my new stress relief. Thank you, I love all the adventures!
The fact that cameras don’t deter them just shows how rampant the corruption is.
The sort of corruption COLONIALISM TAUGHT them many years ago? Don't be silly.
Are you kidding....is is ALL OVER the globe.
How many of them?
Just 1 guy.
There are bad eggs in every part of the world please
@CaveRescueMedic who is "them"? That is an IGNORANT dog whistle.
Eles imigram do país e levam essa cultura junto
Your journey through Nigeria is keeping us on the edge of our seats. Navigating those checkpoints can be nerve-wracking, but your ability to turn dodgy checkpoints into hilarious moments is beyond impressive. Your reply - 'But what can YOU give me?' always shortcircuits them, and they get something out of it.. you make them laugh, so they forget about the money and let you go. That was just brilliant 😆
Norally smile make any person melt to her will :)
those are security agents ..they are harmless
she was lucky the guy could be offended and react violently.
nope..he was doing it illegally..he wa at the mercy of the lady..
This series helps us understand why people leave Africa.
What a brave lady. The suspenseful music really hit the mark.
Armed men stopping you at impromptu checkpoints every 5 minutes, checking you out, looking at your equipment, you nervously laugh and carry on if they let you. Living life one checkpoint at a time, looks like fun!
Demanding money as a police officer in front of a running camera is a nice advertisement for the country! 👌😂
That's because you are in a haste to believe the image of a whole 20oMillion person's plus from the conduct of 1 person. Your statistics brain 🧠 is 100% on point . I guess
She should send this footage to there embassy, get that dude fired. Or arrested as impersonating an officer.
bet youre the same person who says trump bad lol@@alliswell1605
In America🇺🇸 we call that Lobbying 😂
@@phillipjacobson4457
The officer was arrested yesterday
As a Gambian residing in the UK, as I watch this video from an unbiased standpoint, it is evident that there are still exceptional and courteous police officers who warmly embrace everyone, as showcased in these videos.
However, there are still many corrupt and morally compromised individuals in the police force, hindering the progress and growth not only of the country but also of Africa as a whole.
I saw mostly smiling welcoming faces in this video and one dick who just thought he could try it on. I`ve had holidays in Gambia and Kenya, got out and about among the locals and most people are lovely but you will encounter the ones who just want money for nothing, that`s the same story wherever you go in the world
Being oyingbo is helping her
Don't talk about other countries we are talking about nigeria is the worst
A lot of that nice police footage on this channel is a result of her having three go-pros on and being a westerner.
@fernandoalcantara2435 Dangerous, hostile, and crime everywhere? Where did you see all that ?
A really great video. I thought every time you got pulled over, now things are getting tricky. I was pleasantly surprised that everyone was really friendly. Thanks for sharing.
I had so much anxiety for her while watching this. @itchyboots you are a legend!
This video has really shown how friendly Nigerians are regardless of the poverty level being high. You see so many individuals smiling
They can be very kind and respectful on the surface but very evil. I’ve been to Nigeria 5 times and I love it but don’t be fooled.
This is so wrong of you though
@@sisterkamilah4373 Nigerians are not evil. Speak on what you know!
Damn.
To be honest Nigeria is not poor it is mismanaged.
I bet the pirates smile too. And the internet/phone scammers.
You are brave for this. As a Nigerian American , I went to Nigeria this summer. I traveled from Lagos to Ilorin by car and the amount of corrupt police officers that we had to bribe was unbelievable. The road conditions are also really bad and driving is really rough and dangerous as only locals can really drive in nigeria so you’re really brave for this.
Youd be corrupt too if you were born in dirty and poor country.. easy to judge from USA in your comfy bed
take a camera next time !
Why don't they give her more of a hard time? Could they get in trouble if they bother a foreigner?
Roads in Nigeria are not safe to travel especially for foreigners. many employ personal armed bodyguards.
the line between bravery and stupidity is thin
You are amazing and super brave…..people in general are great, but another video when so many were circling your bike I was soo nervous. You deal with life very well..staying calm….under stressful road conditions and sketchy people. You are gravely admired by me and my husband. Be safe 🇨🇦👍💕
That camera Saved your Life multiple times belive it or not
True that. Would be criminals got discouraged because of her bike mounted with 📷
Alone in Nigeria!? Cop asking for money is far from the worst thing, which could've happened.
Yeah, so scary.. Espesially for east asian
Especially for a woman...in a rural place like that there are plenty of places to hide a body...not that anyone would come looking for her...pulling out that roll of money at that gas station wasn't the smartest move. For her safety she'd be better off staying home and watching other people's videos or take a man with you next time.
Sooo brave traveler!
I agree !
@user-jh7nc3pv8h How else was she supposed to pay without taking the money out? She had almost exact Amount they were asking for, I agree it'd be dumb to take out more money tho
There are good cops and bad ones in this video alone. When that cop asked “are you enjoying my country” that shows me he cares about the image and safety of people who visits his country
Sure
Хороший полицейский. Таких немного
Why can’t you understand? He literally tried to intimidate the lady. How can you not see that? It’s baffling how everyone feels sorry for him.
@@hatesitrick я не первого полицейского, а про второго. Смотри 18:14
@@user-yv1fb6ee7jДенис Якунин есть видео через месяц эти двое полицейских которые вроде бы требуют у Нурали деньги за проезд, уже стоят в Нигерийском суде где их приговоривают к увольнению из полиции и прямо в зале суда снимают с них полицейские мундиры рубашки.😂😊😅
That's insane! I wish you good luck and an unforgettable experience on your journey. Be careful and stay healthy. Greetings from Germany from a biker who is a bit jealous.
*After watched this video in TikTok then only I'm become her fan and subscribed her channel. I watched her all seasons from begin to now. Sister you are "IRON LADY". All the very best for your Journey and Stay SAFE* 🥰👍💪
When I worked in Nigeria I learned to keep a $20 in my pocket and hide the rest of my money. That way when the inevitable demand for “gratuity” came from the police or other government official, I could plead that the $20 was all I had. It happened a lot. Those stereotypes don’t come from nowhere.
I used to do the same in Baja California, Mexico.
@@rick262 Yep, I'm 66 years old and I usually do the same when I travel in my own country Romania. And to be honest, the same thing happened to me almost everywhere in Eastern Europe. In my opinion, this kind of behavior can be generalized with few exceptions and, more or less so in sight and imperative, in almost all the world to those who hold the power of a weapon and the authority of the position in their country.
With the rebel groups causing havoc and danger in Nigeria, I really wonder why you decided to go there. I guess you don't want to miss out on any country, but this one is incredibly risky. I'm sure you make it through okay as we get these videos on a time lag. Please continue to be safe! You are a remarkable human being! ❤
I also Indonesian....😂
How is it risk? stop talking what you dont know, i have been watching the video all through, did she experience any problem, the answer is no and everyone was friendly to her, stop talking trash
A white woman with money and a nice bike, alone in Nigeria... What could possibly go wrong? You are brave...I hope you don't get taken hostage
White woman looking for that COAL TRAIN!
She has been in more dangerous places than Nigeria.
I would say more naive than brave.. that is actually quite stupid..
@user-pk6jv4jv3c she has traveled all around the world, to multiple dangerous countries for years. She is far from naive. YOU'RE naive compared to her.
Looks like Ugandan terrain
You were and are very brave... sincerely. A hug, be careful, good luck!! 👍👍👍
To a great extent, this video shows how peaceful, adventurous, happy and accommodating Nigerians are. This is different from the negative and abusive picture that is always shown to the outside world about the country. Every nation have its own good and bad so everyone can have a positive perspective (without discriminating) of The country.
Nigeria was my favourite country (for it's people) on my UK to Cape Town trip. Lovely people and very welcoming, if a little tiresome at times. The corruption is a pain, but its the same everywhere in west Africa. Whilst the constant police stops wear you down, they are there to keep you safe ultimately. Roll with it, youve got this and at least you're making progress. Things get a little easier in Cameroon and much simpler by Angola (apart from the fuel shortages). Keep those wheels turning Norally 👍
The roads are a national embarrassment, the cops are an even bigger embarrassment. Thank God they were dismissed, but I hope this would be the last time security officials embarrass us like this.
I mean yes, but also, quite a few people simply offered her welcome and safe journey. Let's not tar everyone.
@@newblor tell em
😂😂😂😂😂my brother, corruption in Africa is a culture. Myself I’m really embarrassed seeing these types of road infrastructure in Nigeria
See people talking
Like as if other part of the world doesn't have roads like this
@@adedotunadeniran8230 See who is talking, if they have roads like this in other parts of the world, should we be copying the bad things from those parts. Or we should be happy that the majority of the roads are like this?
We should always make sure our country 🇳🇬 is known for good things. It's not a crime to want "good things" for our country.
You need to watch the other videos to see how bad the roads were. She even fell off her bike at some point and someone had to help her pull her bike out of the ditch.
I lived and worked in a small town in Nigeria from 1979-81, and rode a motorcycle to get around and also travel around the country. "What did you bring me?" is like a common greeting. I asked my Nigerian friends how to answer it, and they said to laugh it off as Noraly did, or respond with a joke, or say "Next time." Everyone who goes from point A to point B gets asked that, not just white women! And obviously people can't be carrying around gifts for every single person they meet, especially on a motorcycle. Nigerian culture is very "in your face" and extroverted compared to other countries in West Africa, which I also visited. I had to get used to it, but it was a relief to return to my introverted side when I left.
You said it all,as a Nigerian I can relate to that.
Everywhere she goes, everyone she meets is amazed that she travels by bike, surprised that she's Dutch, and shows respect for her being a woman. 👩🇳🇱👏
Yeah, I like their compliment to her - "Well done!"
Они и не знают, где Нидерланды)
That always put a smile on my face.
@@Alex-cg6zketa pravda.. Europe is one nation to them, more or less
@@dockingtroll6801 they know where Netherlands is lol. They watch football religiously
to all Nigerians: don't worry, there is this secret police competition: which police can embarrass their country the most
I think The Mozambique cops are topping that list with their famous " 1 Million " metical spot fine.
it seemed like he was joking might be wrong, I am not from Nigeria so maybe its common
He was a bit scared of her. She is unique @@spookyacti
Mexico is just as bad
😂
Itchy Boots, good evening. I observe through videos like this that the African people, despite the difficulties that prevail in most of Africa, are always smiling and are kind.
And corrupt, they are not friendly when the come to Europe. Responsible for 80% of the crime
It's not as difficult as you might believe.
That's because of her camera. If cameras are removed the outcomes may not be the same. 😂😅
It was the same 20 years ago in Nigeria, it is the same now. Any officer in uniform (policemen, soldiers, customs, immigration, guard, even firemen) demanded money. it got really scary when civilians with rifles did the same on the suburbs of Lagos
Can we just spend a minute to appreciate those police officers who welcomed you into our country and asked for nothing in return, because that is not normal behaviour.
Thanks, Noraly. I'm back to viewing your posts. I'm intrigued at your bravery, strength, and desire to explore. Sharing with the viewers a glimpse of the world we might not see. I thank God for the landscapes, the way of life, and the people's you encounter. I pray for you that God keeps you safe. Love, from Central Valley California USA
IT IS normal behaviour in our African countries tho
@@HassanSanem no it’s not normal. You’ve just come to accept it as normal.
You have a lot of courage lady and a disarming endearing manner , but I still think you might be pushing your luck in places like these. Keep safe.
@@Ricomontal She has 4 cameras on her bike, how is she pushing her luck? They know the world can be watching them, so they behave.
Over the years, I have learned to trust Noraly, but I swear this episode is making me extremely nervous.
Oh, and did we really need the creepy music Noraly? 😂
I live in Africa and I must agree with you.
yep we definitely needed the “creepy” music as you say
This whole trip through Africa has made me nervous. I'd probably feel less nervous if she was on a trip through war torn Ukraine.
I find myself feeling the same way. I sure hope we’re wrong about this!
Absolutely amazing adventure ❤, welcome to Africa... We can't wait to see you in East Africa especially Kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪❤️
Wow 😳 your an adventurous soul, your "crazy"but you have given us courage,we really like you, please 🙏 be safe, thank you and cheers 🥂

Week after week, month after month, years after years, the more it goes, the more I appreciate Itchy boots adventures . This one made me smile, laugh, and dream again. Thank you. Thank you 😁
To be fair the corrupt cop gave you lots of subs, including me, i dont know how you manage to find courage to go through all that, but im sure glad to watch it, ride safe.
Wow Great adventure. Consider coming to Swaziland, you will really love it and your finish the tiny country in less than a day, yes less than a day. We have friendly welcoming citizens and you will love the green mountainous scenery.... wishing the best and safe trip...🎉🎉
This man loves money truly 😂. Well handled by you Noraly
What a phenomenal scene that was. Money Money! Usually checkpoint people love Noraly and want to marry her, money is lower on list.
He and his colleague later got dismissed from the police force on national television
I'm a Nigerian living in Nigeria, I can't take this risk. Thank you for this. Be safe
She's unaware of the dangers.That in itself keeps her safe, she doesn't attract danger.
Your country need to rebuild all areas roads.I seen much much places roads are so wickness.
@@patbenz4327 Doesn't sound like great logic. Better to be aware of the danger and also not attract danger.
Fear is the greatest danger we can face in this world

Noraly, your journey has significantly shifted some perspectives about Nigeria, illustrating the warmth and hospitality inherent in its people. Your interactions, including those with the police, showcased a side of Nigeria that often goes unnoticed. Your experience, marked by safety and an absence of incidents despite the numerous checkpoints, underscores the efforts made to ensure your safe passage.
It's heartening to see that your departure from Nigeria was smooth and uneventful. Your remarkable viewership from Nigeria, a nation with a population exceeding 200 million, speaks volumes about the support and interest your journey has garnered. Unlike other countries that might seek to influence your narrative for image management, Nigeria stands by the authenticity of your experiences. As the most populous black nation, Nigeria's reputation may sometimes be overshadowed by negative stereotypes, but your journey highlights the positive realities. We wish you nothing but success in all your future endeavors.
These roadside beggars are so kind...and professional along with their uniform. Samminamiyaa yaee yaeee😅
I'm a Nigerian but felt so ashamed watching Nigerian police men tasking you for money😞

no need to be ashamed, police of whole world basically take bribes lol. Its specialty of police to take bribes
Don't worry about it man, the people seem super friendly I would love to visit sometime
Don't worry. The UK police do it too. Here in Britain, they don't expicitly ask you for money for themselves, like we saw in this video, but they try to find something with which they can "fine you" with - any excuse to claim you are "breaking the law' so that they can collect revenue from people. And, it's not just police - traffic wardens, environmental enforcement officers, council workers, etc. do this also. Corrupt people are everywhere across the face of our beautiful earth.

In Cambodia I was alone at the top apartment of my soon-to-betray-me "friend's" place when a big Khmer guy appeared and tried to get in. He told me to open for him, but I was not going to open for a total stranger, so he got furious, and in his clucking language said he wanted to kill me. I know the word for kill. He tried to reach through the window bars to no avail. Frustrated, he left but I stayed inside until the next day in case he tried ambushing me later. I regret moving to Scambodia. I could write a book about how horrible this place is.

You my friend are lucky to still be alive. You sure are taking many risks with your life considering the places you visit. That being said, "God Speed"!
So unsafe country nigeria 🇳🇬 GOD BLESS YOU, stay safe from MOROCCO 🇲🇦, you’re a real adventure HERO
A white woman with money and a nice bike,riding alone in Nigeria.What could go wrong?Hopefully things going out well for you on your adventure.
Exactly what I said.
Precisely.
In a world especially AFRICA a white woman needs to tread lightly.
they ask that to almost anyone honestly. white, black, yellow or whatever. If they see you look to have a bit of money they will ask you. If you didn't notice, all people on the video were super nice and caring, just the corrupt police as usual (and not just NIgeria, even in industrialized countries)
Just trying his luck! Nothing sinister about it!
I'm a Cameroonian. I love riding like this, discovering places, amazing people(not scary corrupt officers),and bringing joy.This is what I want to do. You are truly brave
I am from india. Brave lady
Brave? She couldn't even make it across the bridge without help from a man
As A British Nigerian this is Immensely Inspirational. Wow girl! 😅
Ive made this journey before, from ghana to nigeria. Its insane, this lady it so brave!!!
I have to give a thousand thumbs up for your bravery going though Nigeria. You are a, in tune with things,lady and handle the stops very well! The corruption is so unfortunate. I am glad to see some just want to know your business and aren’t anything more than that. Pretty intense day...glad you didn’t have rains. Great video Noraly!
am not surprised. PLEASE BE CAREFUL, KEEP YOUR EYES AND EARS OPEN - NEVER BLINDLY TRUST - RIDE SAFE, GOD BLESS.
Honestly good content, great music added to the video, subscribed for the journey.
Police demanding money There was a few dodgy people on that road you are lucky your bike never got taken of you Brave girl
Omo I respect you oh, this is balls of steel, Nigerian men abroad will almost faint with fear just to travel from Lagos to Ibadan when they are back home on holiday and you ride through, safe journey and much respect.
You need to be more crazy than brave to do what you’re doing! Absolutely incredible. I spent two weeks in Nigeria this year over the summer to film a documentary about the attacks of Boko Haram and Fulanis. I went to Chibok too and I exactly know what it takes to travel across Nigeria. All the best and please stay safe. Lots of love from the UK 🇬🇧
Are to the guy who has worked to highlight the plight of Roma people?
Risking your life unnecessarily for a YT channel is ridiculous, everyone knows life is cheap in some of these places.
It wouldn't be the first time and it wont be the last when people like her have just "disappeared".... no need to just volunteer to be another statistic...
@@tada2508 Don't worry Roma people have similar problems, but sadly its deep ingrained in their culture, and the "gypsy way of making money". Force prostitution, kidnappings, corruption and stealing. Stereotypes don't fall out of the sky. God forbid you're a darker skin indian or black person, they'll throw slurs left and right at you, thinking they're superior while dressed in raggidy clothes. Of course, this is the city romanis, the countryside living ones have a different culture and are usually honest and hardworking, and are at conflict with the ones living in the city.

I had the exact same experience at Abuja International Airport after arrival. An official (lady) at the final security check just before the airport's exit confiscated my suitcase and said "Give me something". When I told her I don't understand, she said again, "Give me something, anything", and refused to release my suitcase until I complied. All of this happened right in front of several heavily armed security officers (maybe military), all of them heard this, but none of them interjected, even when I protested. Apparently this is perfectly normal in Nigeria.
you should have asked her how she would have felt if she didnt eat breakfast that morning
Did you give them something? What happened?
I am Nigerian. I was traveling out lately and I was asked for money by about 5-6 different staffs at different checkpoint. When I told my friend about the experience, he told me that they were all in it together. That at the end of each work day, they split the money they have collected from "tasking" travelers among themselves.
In the meantime, I would like to ask you a question. Are you born again?
@@DrDingus It's a longer story as I was also held up for about 2 hours by a guy in passport control who confiscated my passport to solicit a bribe. I refused and when they changed shifts, the next passport control officer took my passport out from under the counter where the previous guy put it, stamped it, and let me through. It was a business trip and I was concerned that the shuttle sent by the company to pick me up would leave without me. My phone couldn't connect to the local network so I couldn't call. So I did what I had to to get out of there. It was a gaunlet of bribe solicitation to get through that airport. The rason I commented here was because the same term "give me something" was used by the second person, so I wanted to share.
@@MatthysduToit I hope you get paid well enough to deal with that crap.
You have big balls for drive like this in Africa.....respect from Poland👍
Honestly It's surreal seeing you go through places I had to go through on my way to school in Nigeria. I schooled in Kwara it was a 6hr journey from lagos(it was a boarding school). !!! Please be careful though as the country is really unsettled now !!!.
Corruption exists in most countries.. What sets Nigeria (and most African nations) apart is the sheer shamelessness with which money is demanded..
Its a rare mix of begging and extortion..
In kenya 🇰🇪 it's much better on a bike you won't be flagged off this often
Sure, but not all forms of corruption are equal. In places like Western Europe for example you have cases like that some politician will be invited to a free vacation in exchange for giving some company a government deal, or stuff like insider trading. That is corruption too, but you won't have policemen and bureaucrats demand or even take money from regular citizens.
So yes, there is corruption in most countries, but not this kind of corruption.
Corruption is in all countries but different levels of corruption.
American police are the same
Corruption in Nigeria is only surfacial. Compare it to Germany...where corruption runs deep.
It's truly extraordinary that you dare to enter vulnerable areas, and you can establish good communication with people whose lives are hard
That huge line of traffic due to the truck crash was unreal. And the checkpoints... So many!
omg such a bravery girl, it went over my head how could you be at that place, stay safe, let alone your are there alone wth
all those fake road stops gives me anxiety, you are braver than me
Yeah I have no desire to go there just for that reason

@GraveYardShif7
Disrespect to people who've saved you and others.. shame.
She should be very careful when entering Cameroon, that place isn’t safe
@@yomansprince8486 beh certo... non è come la Nigeria che è un paese molto "tranquillo"...
I’m a Nigerian living in the USA. I applaud your courage riding your bike through foreign countries. In general, the people seem to be nice especially when they know that you are a foreigner. Good luck and safe journey. Cross to Cameroon through Cross River State, in the east, at a town called Ikom.
Mumu where you from 😂😂
Nigerians are amazingly friendly. I love Nigerians.
Is this Sarcasm?
it's almost like people seem friendlier than here in the west.
Im scared to go to Nigeria.
Maybe Libya is Safer...
Parece que você está fazendo uma fantástica viagem. Parabéns.
Zo te zien hebben jullie een fantastische reis. Gefeliciteerd.
So much attention and a beautiful bike and lady.... that's GOT to make u nervous. They're probably calling your position ahead to the locals in the next towns. Stay safe!
Mad Respect for you 🎉❤. God continues to keep you safe in our great Nation, Nigeria.
I also pray God prosper our Nation in the years to come so that our Nigerian police would not be label as beggers.
Ah, the full Nigerian experience. I think this makes you officially a citizen now 😂😢
Nothing to brag about 😂
😂😂😂
Why the roads are blocked with woods?
Whites are different from N’s
Nigeria is not the only country in the world that has corrupt cops!
So police is same in every country 😂😂😂
Indian police: my brother from Nigeria😂
Woman, alone, driving through Africa. Mad respect. And instant sub cause this is insane, LOL.
He's such a lovely guy, I wish he hadn't been kicked out of the police force. When he says “Halo” it makes me laugh every time
First, I'm so happy your channel found me. I'm a Black American who just returned from visiting Nigeria for the first time two weeks ago, and I fell in love with this country. Yes, there is "police corruption," but I learned that even that problem among some, not all, officers, as the video shows, is due to economic issues. No excuse, just a reality. Beyond that, this video actually proves that the vast majority of Nigerians you encounter are grateful, peaceful, and welcoming people. Noraly did not encounter any threats at all... something I found to be refreshing while there. I live in a large, modern metropolitan city here in the U.S. and trust me when I say there are neighborhoods here that Noraly would not have been safe traversing through with such amazing technological gear. In fact, her Alaska would probably have new bike owners. Facts. Again, Nigeria is a place to be loved, honored, and respected as a country with great culture, beautiful land, and a developing economy. I can envision how living conditions there could only improve with care and support from the world community...not disdain and ignorance from those who only grab a few negative snippets from a short video. Keep up your pilgrimages, Noraly. I will also be watching you now. One Love.❤
What part of Nigeria did you visit?
@@ossaiobinnacharles9281 I spent most of my time in Imo state.
Thanks for your insightful and Beautiful comment ❤🎉❤🎉
Glad you enjoyed your stay in Imo.. You were in Owerri, I guess.
@Tgee01 Yes, Owerri, Port Harcourt, and also spent time in Lagos.
You have no idea how excited I felt seeing you pass through Ilorin central mosque. I haven't been there in over 3 years although I was born and brought up in the city.
It made me feel like I travelled with you back there. Thanks and safe travel.
I never had the desire to go to africa. And seeing this im glad i never went. But wish u all lucj and travel happiness.
Been on a motor to Greece and Turkey from holland in the 80 th. It was fun.
Groetjes
Totally enjoyed your video, thanks so much for sharing.
That was an embarrassment for an officer and frankly, disgusting. Carrying oneself in such situation by standing your ground without invoking aggression in other people is a skill not many people possess and you clearly have mastered it. I strive to achieve that skill day because I'd lose my cool as soon as they try to extort me for money. Be careful out there, Noraly. I wish you a safe journey.
I wonder if that officer still has his job. Are consequences in Nigeria at the moment too much to hope for?
Unless you have a bigger Army, never lose your cool.
@@seayak arrested yesterday....how i got to know this channel folks
it's not a skill. it's cowardice, and kinda self humiliating to pretend and laugh when clearly ur being abused.
@@philtucker1224 the only smart comment in the entire comment section. everyone else is a loser thinking that was "being good" hahahaahah
Noraly, it is good to see that “You are welcome” in Nigeria 😊 Well done on navigating the roads, roadblocks, and police encounters. It is not for the faint of heart. Stay well, stay safe. P.S. Your choice of music lately has had me dancing at my office desk 🤗
you are a very brave adventurer and I bid you God Speed. Be Safe.
First I said No way you’re traveling alone.Then when you showed the spare tank yea you got this!!😊
