Rebecca Ruiz says: I haven't read much about travel to Nigeria, save George Packer's great article in the New Yorker (see here: http://www.newyorker.com/archive/2006/11/13/061113fa_fact_packer) about the city's informal economies. A New York Times reporter recently surveyed the city's nightlife, malls and substandard housing and found a huge gap between the wealthy and poor. I think it will be awhile before it becomes a real destination, but it should be interesting to see how travel there increases in the coming years. Are you kidding? SNL skit? Nigeria is poor and corrupt. You can see the beach but can't get to it. Too many poor people live there. Are you crazy? Air France here I come. Reserve a room with wire around it. |
