I hope you enjoyed this first episode of my rural experiences on osun iver, the next video will be soon online next week. please don t forget to SMASH THE THUMB UP and copy paste and SHARE THAT VIDEO link NOW on your social network thanks so much, each share is a big push to the channel, help me to grow the family !
I dont know if its another Chanel u have but there is a channel called "City Cruis" and their videos look like urs...just letting u know..hope no one is taking ur videos and re uploading them as their own...my user name means green lard in spanish...
I love this channel. Few weeks back I watched the immersive Lagos drive with my little boy, showing him where I grew up. Can’t wait to show him his fathers land soon. ❤️💯
A very nice video indeed! Sometimes it's nice to change and see how beautiful is life far from city congestion. It is completely different, people take time to talk with you, I find it very pleasant. And thanks to this video I got to know something more about you, as your chinese wife and your father. Thank you Ludo for sharing your videos!
Very interesting video. I remember the exact same style of canoes being used on the lagoon and pulled up onto the beach at Lagos when I was there as a child 64yrs ago. A video showing how those canoes are made would be so interesting also as they are such beautiful boats made with such skill and craftsmanship.
This content for me is GOLD. thank you so much for showing this, it really shows a completely different world from the city and different towns. Cheers to your wonderful content.
Ludo, Many thanks for the insightful coverage of riverine lifestyle in coastal Nigeria. I enjoyed watching this just as much as your previous video of the fishing village near Ajah, Lagos. Best wishes.
You usually have very good videos on the life of Nigeria! and this time you even got a better video on it! because you have gone even deeper into the heart of Nigeria! which is much more than its largest cities and big towns! and in this great video you have even given those great people another view, another image and another voice! which is something very good because they are frequently ignored! and even forgoten! even by the Nigerian Goverment! therefore you have done another great job by bringing them some books! so that they could also learn something about the great world outside of their very beautiful but also very little paradise! Best wishes from Mexico City! and I wish that we could also have those very beautiful blue skies in my city!👍
@@tuforu4 I hope so! besides some other things! of course! but even with that in mind those things in fact are not as many or as expensive as most people think! specially considering the great wealth that could also be created also by the poor people! and don't forget also that the best wealth in the world is always much better used by the poorest people! because they're really the ones that really know poverty better! therefore if they just had the right means to fight against it then they would do it much better than just the rich politicians just sitting some times in their luxory desks just thinking about it! and that is only for just some times! because most of the time in fact they're just thinking about their own selves! only about their own well being! and only about their own health! and only about their own wealth! of course!
The people may appear healthy but the life expectancy in Nigeria is just over 60 years, there is no sanitation in this village, the birth rate is exceptionally high and medical care is almost non-existent. My heart breaks for so many people without basic services.
Very nice villages by river!!! But we all have to watch alligators 🐊 and crocodiles 🐊 on any rivers. We all know these reptiles are dangerous!! But I’m glad you walked on logs and houses near river. I think Nigerians go to fishing and sell woods to the market. See ya soon for next videos!!!!
thanks a lot for the time shared during the premiere dear friend ! I am very glad to see you coming again, and appreciating this work i try to put together ! I wish you a great week ahead !
Credit where it's due. This is good footage. I've never seen skies so blue in Nigeria. The downside is that if the logging isn't regulated it will turn into another treeless shanty community.
@@Ludo_Liu Managing anything in Nigeria is a challenge. The community needs to be informed about the importance of sustainability and planting at least 10 seedlings for every felled tree. The nation as a whole lacks tree cover.
Beautiful video. Thank you Ludo! Thank you for giving books to the village children. When the country settles down a bit,,,,if it ever does, we would love to see the confluence of the Niger and Benue Rivers at Lokoja through your lens.
Another beautiful video exploring Nigerias rural aerias, and I would like to suggest you to show as a map or sketch of the visiting places .Hoping to explore more places in this country.Take care and safe journeys !!
Hello, Ludo, how are you!? This place is beautiful, a piece of paradise indeed!!! But it's rustic, and it seems precarious for the people who live there, but it may just be the mistaken view of those who only know life in the city.
@ Ludo Liu.You're back. Ômo you de hide since your Lagos road trip. How life de mona you ? Well done man. Greetings from that your man who played golf at Ikoyi Golf Club and watched Polo matches near Falomo. Bonjour et salut de France/Switzerland. Here we have the Rhône, Sôane Rivers and lake Annecy, the Alpes Mountain ski ressorts.
Un telle vidéo équivaut à une séance de luminothérapie doublée des bienfaits d'une sieste sans fermer les yeux... C'est trooop chouette et super apaisant. On y découvre les unités aussi. Merci pour le partage !
thank you very much for your warm comment regarding the video madame truc ! please feel free to come and take a look and share some time during the video i will premiere tomorrow
Again this little French man delivers 🤗❤️ Thanks Ludo, really immersive and in 1440/60 can't look any better than this! Stay safe and hope to see more those unique videos of yours, mate! 👍🏻✌🏻
My pleasure! brother !!!! you can even enjoy it more in 3840 X 2160 60 fps. if you have the screen for that. I am already working on the next edit, hope you will appreciate it as much as that one!
Nigeria boasts of the largest economy in Africa. It is projected to rank among the world's top ten economies by 2050. Nigeria has an abundance of resources including oil and gas. The Country holds the largest natural gas reserves on the continent, and is Africa's largest oil and gas producer.
wow. so many woods. too many trees have been cut down. but the village is not bad. i mean they have access to water for fishing and i guess that they are selling the woods for a living too. . poor but peaceful life. style . awesome.
Formidable vidéo, ce village est magnifique et les couleurs sont d'une grande beauté. J'aurais aimé comprendre la conversation avec le couple qui te demandait ton âge et celui de tes parents si j'ai bien saisi ainsi que tout le reste d'ailleurs. ..bravo
il me semble que tu peux mettre les sous titres et la traduction instantannée en cliquant qur la roue en bas à droite de l'écran.sous titre puis traduction. merci encore d'avoir jeté un oeil sur cette video ! belle soirée
Cool video. I appreciate your compassion in telling stories of the daily life of ordinary people. This rural life on the river reminds me of my visit to Guna Yala Archipelago in Panama.
Thanks for subscribing !!! and welcome on the channel !!! I hope you will appreciate what you'll see inside here, please feel free to check the other videos
Quite an immersive experience, and genuine down to earth interactions. Great vid! Pls share info on the camera(s)/gear, looks like it's two? Really beautiful shots too.
Very much a documentary style video and I liked it. Apparently, the village is getting income from timber. Do you know if the village is covered by an internet or a cellular network? And as always, a real pleasure to watch your videos in 4K on my UHD TV, the quality is amazing. ¡Buen trabajo como siempre! Fue muy informativo e interesante. In case I have no time to leave a comment on your next video, at this point I'd like to wish you & your family a Merry Christmas! 🎄🎅🎁 Btw, I'd love to see what Lagos looks like on Christmas but I'm sure you'd rather spend Christmas with your family than driving around the city, so don't take any pressure off this wish. Que tengas un bonito fin de semana! 💜 Cuídate! Abrazitos 💕 Chao! 👋 Edit: J’ai vu des gens tenir un téléphone sur leurs mains, on dirait qu’ils ont un réseau cellulaire dans la région, n’est-ce pas? (Désolé mon mauvais Français lol 🥴)
thanks a lot, yes timber work is becoming really important here, there are few small solar panels on the top of some houses to charge the phones... I hope you are getting ready to spend really lovely celebrations with your family ! i will definitively try to have a walk and drive in the belly of the city just before christmas oui, il y a du réseau céllulaire et l'internet passe dans ce coin ! passe de belles fêtes !
Another excellent video. I was watching the video confused because even though the caption states that you are in Osun State, the people and the area looked very much like people from my side of Nigeria, Delta State and non- Yoruba. Even the way they spoke English sounded very familiar to me and then it was confirmed that they are descendents Ijaw settlers from the Niger Delta. Nigeria is a very complex country. Thanks again for posting.
Yes Nigeria is a very complex and very huge country. I am glad you stayed and watched the video till that lady gave you the answer to your questions. thanks for your support and warm comment
This are arogbo Ijaw, very different from Ijaw from Delta or Rivers State, They have always reside in the reverline area of Ondo, Osun and Ogun States, Arogbo Ijaw speaks their distinct Ijaw language and they do comprehend and speak Yoruba as well. some even bear Yoruba names. Omoyele Sowere is an Arogbo Ijaw man.
@@mungopark1876 They said on the video that they are originally from the Niger Delta... That being said Ijaw is not a homogenous ethnicity..Just like the Yoruba (Oyo, Ijebu, ekiti etc) and Igbo (ika, Asaba, Ukwuani etc) which consists of many dialects under one umbrella, the Ijaw (Boma, Akpoi, kalabari, Arogbo and Sagbama ect) is also a multitude of ethnicities under the Ijaw (Ijoid) Umbrella. Shamefully a lot of Nigerians don't know this. They hear Yoruba, Igbo or Ijaw and assume that it refers to one homogenus unit when that is far from the case.
Thanks for uploading this. Just a little observation. There doesn't seem to be much of Govt presence here, which is sad. And there are pockets of places like this throughout Nigeria. Once anoher country tries to collare this place, that's when FG will be bandying sovereignty. The easiest weapon of showing sovereignty is by developing an area. It is quite sad!
this is on the nprt side of epe laguna, on Oun river, the physical separation between lagos state and ogun state. Thanks a lot for watching, kindly subscribe if you want to see more videos of Nigeria, i have an amazing serie arriving
Can you do a drive through of some of those estates in lagos or wont they let you in? there are alot of them but i mostly see them from the sky and will like a floor view.
maybe i'll do that one day, yes... But in fact so many youtuber's are already spending time to document real estate, and they do it in a very good way. I am not really sure i would add anything interesting here
Wood industry seems to be their main source of livelihood. How much is 700 nairas in euros? Here, one of those planks would cost about 30 € (made of spruce). In my country that "waste" wood they have in abundance, would be burned in fireplases ... to get heat (last week -20 C°) 🙂.
@@Ludo_Liu I was wondering about that and looking to see woodworking machinery But later when wood planks were being loaded onto a boat , I got it that the worked wood there. All the same, most of the, ground around the village is same, built up with wood shavings. It is cool, and it looks healthy to me. What do you think? Finally, I think you can do a more educative series about this village and similar like it all along the inner waterways from Lagos to the Delta.
@Μπεττυ Μπεττυ I understand clearly what you are saying here i think. This reminds me when i was visiting some tribes in Indonesia, i felt really happy to reach there, then after few days in the jungle with them, i was realizing that i was belonging to the people starting to "spoil" their culture, bringing rice and tobacco where people eat sagu floor ( the pulp from a tree... ) I got it brother, and you are right.
for us it is something beautiful. but to live the life of those people is certainly not beautiful. if I had been born there I would have done my best to escape from that life. to grow old in those places is surely hell. their faces were not very satisfied with their lives
@@Ludo_Liu I appreciate that you made a comment, but I still say that, it is true that it brings us great satisfaction when we see other poor people, it makes us sleep better, and we enjoy what we have and they don't :) .. yes I have such satisfaction and I don't think it's ethical.
I was wondering where this question came from, then i went to check at the video again, having this in mind. yes you are right ! they almost all wear to large uniforms (the girls)I will try to find the answer!
thanks for watching, kindly subscribe the channel if you are not yet part of the family , if you want to see more of my work, I am premiering a new episode tonight ua-cam.com/video/pK2ERWV8lh8/v-deo.html
@@Ludo_Liu have you finished viewing your own vicinity? Let us be. You people carry yourselves there, pretending to mean well towards these beautiful-hearted angels (compared to some people) and later come to spew out filth. Can i come to your village as an African, filming people, and come out alive?
@@africanoriginal9404 For your information Bolaji Alonge, is a Nigerian... i am accompanying him on his project. yes you are welcome in my home-town...
The nature is beautiful, and the people too. Did you bring anything else to the village, in addition to books? 🌱🌿🫖🍵🛖🧵🪡✂👕👚🛍👒🧺🔨🪓🪚🔦 Like something useful for self-help or food/gift/pleasure/joy? 💝
i went there several ties and with several peoples. I am not the one who brought something alone, so i will say we. we brought, doctires, medecine, vaccine, building and organization of a floatting hospital visiting the villages around the laguna... this is the work from many people. also few toys for sure !!!!
thank you very much for your warm comment regarding the video! please feel free to come and take a look and share some time during the video i will premiere tomorrow

love this documentary Ludo, this is the Nigeria we do not see, it is a wonderful place, thanks for sharing this immersive vlog
Glad you enjoyed it Sir, yes that is true that we barely never see this aspect of Naija.
I wish you a great day !
This is wonderfully made, you are showing what other journalists wouldn't and this is a start to greatness in this field. Well done 👍🏾

I've never seen skies so blue in Nigeria.
The downside is that if the logging isn't regulated it will turn into another treeless shanty community.
thanks a lot for your comment regarding the work.
yes this logging activity may have many side effects if not done properly
@@Ludo_Liu Managing anything in Nigeria is a challenge. The community needs to be informed about the importance of sustainability and planting at least 10 seedlings for every felled tree. The nation as a whole lacks tree cover.

Nice video India 🇮🇳👍👍👍
thank you so much for your constant support since you discovered the channel Sir!
i really appreciate!
Namaskar !
Thanks for uploading this. Just a little observation. There doesn't seem to be much of Govt presence here, which is sad. And there are pockets of places like this throughout Nigeria. Once anoher country tries to collare this place, that's when FG will be bandying sovereignty. The easiest weapon of showing sovereignty is by developing an area. It is quite sad!
that is completely true Sir ! Thanks a lot for watching and for your comment
Lumber is their number one livelihood. Hope they have regulation about tree cuttings so that forest will be sustained.
I hope too, this activity can be both sustainable or a disaster.
A great thing to do is introduce the village to Solar panels electric-energy power grid!
if you look closely, you will see tiny solar panels for the people to charge phone and small devices.
Thanks a lot for watching
Why do they throw the money in the water? I like this portrayal of Nigeria you did a good job!
the guy who should grab it , just missed it;;; i guess you saw the small boy collecting it and bringing back after
Greetings
cheers ! thanks a lot for being around !
😍👍👍👍👏👏👏
Thank you. I just came across this video. Is this in Osogbo or Lagos? You mentioned Osun River in your description.
this is on the nprt side of epe laguna, on Oun river, the physical separation between lagos state and ogun state. Thanks a lot for watching, kindly subscribe if you want to see more videos of Nigeria, i have an amazing serie arriving
Can you do a drive through of some of those estates in lagos or wont they let you in? there are alot of them but i mostly see them from the sky and will like a floor view.
maybe i'll do that one day, yes... But in fact so many youtuber's are already spending time to document real estate, and they do it in a very good way.
I am not really sure i would add anything interesting here
@@Ludo_Liu yes but they don't drive through so the view is different!! but it's ok, Also will you visit the eastern states like enugu and abia?

thanks a lot for watching and dropping a comment
Wood industry seems to be their main source of livelihood.
How much is 700 nairas in euros? Here, one of those planks would cost about 30 € (made of spruce).
In my country that "waste" wood they have in abundance, would be burned in fireplases ... to get heat (last week -20 C°) 🙂.
700 nairas is around 2 dollars. Thanks a lot for your comment once more !

And this coastline is kinda interesting. It is not a sandy beach. Mere like built up with wood shavings . Confirm?
this is far from the sea side. it is not the coast , the wood chips are there because the boat was moored near a place where the wood is worked
@@Ludo_Liu I was wondering about that and looking to see woodworking machinery But later when wood planks were being loaded onto a boat , I got it that the worked wood there. All the same, most of the, ground around the village is same, built up with wood shavings. It is cool, and it looks healthy to me. What do you think?
Finally, I think you can do a more educative series about this village and similar like it all along the inner waterways from Lagos to the Delta.
TOURISM IS DESTROYING
what tourism ? i am the first foreigner to come there i think.
@@Ludo_Liu I HOPE THE LAST DO NOT TAKE IT PERSONALLY
@Μπεττυ Μπεττυ I understand clearly what you are saying here i think. This reminds me when i was visiting some tribes in Indonesia, i felt really happy to reach there, then after few days in the jungle with them, i was realizing that i was belonging to the people starting to "spoil" their culture, bringing rice and tobacco where people eat sagu floor ( the pulp from a tree... ) I got it brother, and you are right.
@@Ludo_Liu GREEK WOMAN I AM THANK YOU FROM MY HEART THAT YOU UNDERSTAND ME
I am wondering why you continue to upload parts of old video as a new video. Running of ideas on content creation?
what are you speaking about ?this is an original video never uploaded, as all my videos...
for us it is something beautiful. but to live the life of those people is certainly not beautiful. if I had been born there I would have done my best to escape from that life. to grow old in those places is surely hell. their faces were not very satisfied with their lives
yes it looks like a paradise,but life is not easy far from everything for these people you are completely right
@@Ludo_Liu I appreciate that you made a comment, but I still say that, it is true that it brings us great satisfaction when we see other poor people, it makes us sleep better, and we enjoy what we have and they don't :) .. yes I have such satisfaction and I don't think it's ethical.
Why are the little girls' uniform so oversized and hideous while the boys uniform are made to their size??? Just wondering
I was wondering where this question came from, then i went to check at the video again, having this in mind.
yes you are right ! they almost all wear to large uniforms (the girls)I will try to find the answer!
It is realised from video that they are very poor and live in unhealthy ,(marshy land) situation. Also river bank is poluted by wooden dust.
thanks for watching, kindly subscribe the channel if you are not yet part of the family , if you want to see more of my work, I am premiering a new episode tonight ua-cam.com/video/pK2ERWV8lh8/v-deo.html
Don't think all the people here speak Yoruba, I seem to hear them speak Izon. Can your guide confirm?
you have the answer inside the video while i speak with the lady waving the fish trap and her husband...we speak about that topic.
What are you looking for?
what do you mean ?
@@Ludo_Liu have you finished viewing your own vicinity? Let us be. You people carry yourselves there, pretending to mean well towards these beautiful-hearted angels (compared to some people) and later come to spew out filth. Can i come to your village as an African, filming people, and come out alive?
@@africanoriginal9404 For your information Bolaji Alonge, is a Nigerian... i am accompanying him on his project.
yes you are welcome in my home-town...
Wrong spiritual software. The source of lack of development in Nigeria.
Illegal timbering 😞 soon it’s will be like other normal unhealthy village at Nigeria
yes regulation and plantation of new trees for each one cut, is very important
The nature is beautiful, and the people too.
Did you bring anything else to the village,
in addition to books? 🌱🌿🫖🍵🛖🧵🪡✂👕👚🛍👒🧺🔨🪓🪚🔦
Like something useful for self-help or food/gift/pleasure/joy? 💝
i went there several ties and with several peoples. I am not the one who brought something alone, so i will say we.
we brought, doctires, medecine, vaccine, building and organization of a floatting hospital visiting the villages around the laguna... this is the work from many people.
also few toys for sure !!!!
