    I have visited this place in the 90s. When I finally sat on the porch of Susanne Wenger’s beautiful house, I wept, because she had been my role model since I was 14. But it was only because of my husband from Benin, that she herself guided us herself through the grove on a weekday, that she normally spend working and teaching her many adopted children and students. She explained, how she had been guided by the orishas to depict them properly, and she telepathically connected with the Nigerian artist who sculpted the greater and higher sculptures. Yes, yes, the culture is ancient, can be traced back to Kemeth, but the art work isn’t even a century old. You have shown only a tiny bit of all there is to see. And what else she told us, that just before sunset all the monkeys would go up the high trees, mothers calling their children up. And nobody has ever seen a dead monkey on the ground, nobody knew what they did with their dead family members.

      In terms of landmass, Kigali is a smaller than Lekki, which is a small part of Lagos, the smallest state in Nigeria. You’re stupid for even trying to compare. If you want to compare Kigali in terms of charm to a Nigerian city, then bring it on. I will take you to Abuja so you see first hand what a city is supposed to look like.

    You have a beautiful family my friend.The way everybody felt at home and comfortable on one bike shows they've taken to nigeria like a true local.😅It's a shame that it takes a foreigners to show us this part of nigeria.This should be the work of the ministry of tourism or information somehow.Nice job man!!Osun,full name lyeosun is the story the west and Christianity translated as Jesus christ,and lslam translated as lsa today.lyeosun was reduce to yesu,later jesus,taking out the letter O and N to make it sound English.Orisha means christ head in English.The Sa or Sha in orisha is lsa in lslam.The story of lyeosun is about human highest consciousness but Nigeria,like christianity and lslam today took it as a literal story.What these religiins translated as a man called Jesus and lsa is actually a woman,which is the human mind not a literal woman hence lye,ya by other tribe and jah by some people like rastas today.lye or lya,ya means woman or mother in Yoruba and edo language not a man.Difficult to explain sometimes,especially on medium like youtube.Nigeria is the root of humanity,religion and civilization.You heard it from me first,quote me anywhere.Enjoy your tour my friend.Thank you.

      I don't like this neither, that's why I told her to come down fast, and explained her ...as you saw in the video.I could have maybe chained her. I also could have cut it in the video, I knew some people would say this.

      that s a very strange comment coming from someone who quote (on his youtube profile) a schizophrenic actor who tried to strangle his manager and sexually abused his daughter from 5 to 19

      The way you treat your family you are just a criminal Frenchman! And no better than the actor you love so much!
