    This may well have been in 2020. The roads are actually THE SAME in raining season . The houses and the filthiness are also present. Would things ever get better in Nigeria ? That remains to be seen .

      Things dont get better in Nigeria. They only get worse. In 1976 when this movie was recorded i was living in Nigeria . The Naira was higher than the u.s.dollar . I Naira was about 1 dollar 50 cents. That tells the whole story.

    Lagos my Lagos : Memories of my working life in Lagos driving my Mini to and from home to the UTA office on Davies Street then to the airport in Ikeja through roads flooded in particular areas, Surulere and parts of Ikorodu road. An aerial view of Lagos says it all rainy season or not Lagos is a peninsula and will always be a peninsula. An island surrounded by water! Also Lagos means Lakes in Portuguese, the Language of the first Europeans to arrive at the land already long inhabited by the Awori which belonged to the Yoruba people.

      Lulled Nigeria into a false sense of security. No investments in infrastructure, corruption and greed. 50 years down the line, it is still an underdeveloped country and a failed state.
      To deny that and blame the West is the sick man not recognising his condition and prefers to blame everyone but himself for his choices.

    My place my time. Adventure galore. It was so different then Europe. It was wild it was dangerous it was beautiful it was home. We were young and we grew up different ( from Germany). We returned to Europe and we realised we lost our place and we became wanderers cause no one had the same experience as us, and we would never again fit in anywhere, because we called this place home in the past and everyone else growing up was so different (in Germany) so civilized so safe so sound so normal...and we couldn't stand civilized...we were addicted to chaos .It shaped us...into something different, something restless something wild...something out of control. We saw a different kind of world, we were young, and it changed us into what we have become. Homeless wanderers , because we don't belong anywhere else, and yet we can never return. Ever again. We are restless spirits now. Almost ununderstandable, unreachable...by anyone who wasn't there with us. Who saw the things we saw who tasted the chaos, the mayhem the bedlam ...

    I noticed one thing very important .the cars commuting were all in good state . No bashed up and rickety rough cars and that's because all cars were bought brand new due to the fact they were all produces here in nigeria or brought in as new and not like we have now that's mostly united states of America fairly used cars and alsotjst the law well being obeyed then than now .because corruption was not pertinent to most nigerians and also that the economy was vibrant and the naira was infact stronger than the dollar .

    • @nobodynoone2500
      @nobodynoone2500 7 місяців тому +1

      Used cars make sense to the dollar. Even here in the USA I have money, but I buy used cars. New personal cars are for showing off wealth. Not inherently evil, but represent good left undone. Getting poor quality used cars is the real problem. The good ones get sold here, and they ship the rest off. Everyone deserves better. It is good to be proud and take care of your belongings, but too many encumber, rather than free you. When everyone has houses they cannot leave because they are full of things to be stolen will never change leadership for fear of uncertainty. The man with little, can deal with more. Most of the people in this video owned less stuff than would fill that car. And because they moved more lightly, could easy make change.

    Crude oil is an embodiment of failure to Nigeria. We really missed it when we ventured into oil and gas. Because we neglected oil palm, cocoa, groundnut, rubber, timber, etc. May Gold forsake Nigeria of her sins "Bad leaders"

    Does someone remember which zone of Lagos was the road view from 1.23 to 1.50? I'm not sure but it looks real like an area in Ikeja, a road leading to the airport hotel, the actual Awolowo rd.. There was a store (year 1979), the MASCO and a newspapers kiosk nearby.. went there for the weekly shopping.. then to UTC on Oba Akran and LEVENTIS on Anthony😥😥😥😥🥰🥰🥰🥰.. wish I was still there..

      I suppose the further we moved away from 1st oct' 1960, the more the oyinbos were less visible walking freely all over Lagos. They would have been withdrawing to the safety of the GRAs in Ikeja and Ikoyi as well as VI. The more we made the journey alone after 1960, the more things got bad, and it's only the petrodollars of the early 70s that would have attracted the oyinbos. Who no like money?

      It's easy to point fingers... things are more complex than it seems.. by the way I lived in Ikeja a couple of years in that period and I recognized one road of the movie.. The Masco super market.. the beach at Victoria that now is no more.. the eko hotel..I was a teen, then, and it has been a hard time for me, but now I think of it as one of the best period of my life.. I loved the people very much.. despite I'm an oyinbo.. people are not all the same

      This video was filmed in 1976 a good decade following independence, how can you blame the onyibos for the lack of maintenance of infrastructure they were no longer responsible for?

    Picturesque thing about it is the lush and peaceful vegetation then which unlike now could be haven for militia herdsmen! Littered thrashes and poorly drained sewages are not as it is today due to probably less population compared to the present but there is scanty excuse that urban city cannot be sanitize for the eyes to behold beauty of nature corridors and human beings.....
