    So I'm beginning to see a lot of angry people in the comment section, apparently this is not real lagos/Nigeria. I'm just going to make it clear here real quick, this is indeed lagos and this is my reality. A lot of people are just angry here that I'm not confirming what western media has fed them. I'm not saying that any news reports that you have heard about Nigeria is a lie, it is indeed a developing country and we have our struggles, however like many other countries in Africa we are so much more than the hunger and the mud houses that they constantly show you guys. We are everything that I have shown in this vlog alongside everything else and even more. I'm not going to go out of my way to look for things that validate your small minded beliefs. Smh. And can y'all please stop pushing this idea that only the super rich can afford the places and things that are shown in this vlog? It's just pathetic at this point. Some of you are referencing articles that you have read when you can't even point Nigeria out in a map.

      Dimma Umeh THANK YOU. Lol my family is strictly middle class and your blogs are close to my reality as well. I hate comments from people who have never stepped foot in Africa saying "only the rich can afford to live like this" like lmao SHUT TF UP. I don't even know any actually wealthy people but they have decent houses like other normal people across the globe. It's not just mud huts or mansions, geez fucking Louise

      My igbo sister..i love your vlogs because it reminds me of the Lagos I grew up in. Dont mind the nonsense comments. There is not only one perspective of Nigeria and this view is legitimate.

    This is totally "regular" Nigeria. Yes, it's still a third world country but it's definitely not as bad as media portrays it. For all of you small minded people, why don't you visit first instead of arguing blindly.

    Thank you soo much for showing the world true Nigeria instead of what is shown in the us. They only show African living in mud houses, or living in dire conditions. You have so much to show the world because in the US we have no idea that Lagos is a metropolitan city. I was amazed that you were able to get a dress made so quickly. You have so much to contribute to the world even if you dont feel like your like is extravagant. You are put a country on the map to the world to see look we have clean water, technology and car. Nigeria is not a third world country that is often portrayed.

      Danielle Davis Nigeria is in fact a third world country, but it is not as bad as they portray it to be on Western media though.

    • @Love25648
      @Love25648 7 років тому

      Danielle Davis Nigeria is a third world country. Lagos is a shithole with the minority good areas for the rich

    • @OYah137
      @OYah137 7 років тому +7

      Ant rip OK, first world smartass! It took you guys hundreds of years to develop..Meanwhile Nigeria is only abt 57 years old. That's like a great grandma judging a young adult! LOSER shut the F## up mkay. Go deal with Trump and all the degenerate psychos in your lovely western world.

    • @OYah137

    Air peace has vexed oh! The hostess said, "You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook & UA-cam." Lol. Awesome vlog Dimma! I don't know why I laughed as much as I did while watching. Pls who was that Daddy in the tux? He really got the choreography right :-). But the turn up part of the wedding reception coulda been more turnt tho. Abuja peeps. Ain't no party like a Lagos party I guess :-).

Stay strong, surround yourself with only positive people and when they are few in number or nonexistent keep company with God! Love you my Nigerian sister 😘💔💋🙏

I love that country and I am from the D.R.C . I am always telling people my Africa I love is not the one they show you on tv and Nigeria is one of my top 5 countries, not in Africa but in the world and I have been around ohhhh

    I'm one of your American sisters. You are so cute. This was wonderful. Our day to day lives are all the same. Work eat sleep. But now I'm retired. So day to day life can be challenging to keep exciting. Right now I've been updating my makeup wardrobe, so it's exciting to receive a package 🤗 I have the new Anastasia Beverly Hills Norvell eyeshadow palette on the way. So does that tell you the level of excitement I'm experiencing. 😂Love your videos. Continue to live live live and love love love. You're wonderful🤗🙏💋💔
