    My mother has been saying this for years and to hear it from a non Nigerian shows the urgency of what she’s talking about. Thank you David for this.

    Straight to the point, love her honesty, everything naturally Nigeria is gradually going out, even our languages parents prefer their children to learn and speak English language instead of their language.

      As sad as it is, speaking English must be upheld (added to languages to learn/speak).

    Nigerians are the most proud of their cultures and languages in africa, she's confusing societal advancement with native abandonment and lack of pride.
    The same kind of mindset that'll go on to diagnose us with stagnation when we hold on too strongly to our foundational traditions.

      She is very right. You are the one confused.
      People don't value what they have until they lose it.
      Social advancement is what pushed a lot of Africans into slavery when white colonizers exchange mere mirrors for natives Africans.
      Please watch the full video to get the full contest of what she means.

      "most proud of cultures and languages", yet most Nigerians don't know how to speak talkless of reading their native language. she is not talking about going to serve traditional gods or stuff like that, but rather on core values and things that make us Nigerians, which we have, to a large extent, lost. Watch the video and try to understand where she is coming from

      Are you even nigerian? These are basic facts you'd know if you've lived in the country.

    💯👏🏼 David Nkwa I appreciate all your videos, your time and your enthusiasm for adventure, showing us all the hidden, off the beaten paths beauty of Nigeria. I used to love traveling by road in the 80's from Lagos to the North, the East and the South South. On the way we would stop at local Mama Put places to eat all the local delicacies and even buy cheap food stuff like bread, plantains, garri and bush meat to take home as souvenirs. Those were the days as a growing child, that the journey was never too long and it was exciting to see the varied cultures and topography as one moved Kilometer by Kilometer. Unfortunately we're once attacked by armed robbers on Benin expressway which dampened my joy of traveling by road. All the same wherever I could travel by Air, I would often ask my host or the locals to take me around. Nigeria has a rich hugely unexplored tourism potential, but security is of the essence for it to flourish. So thank you for taking us around through your videos. God bless you.

      Amazing am glad you atleast experience road travel, there is nothing like it.
      Hopefully insecurity will end someday in Nigeria so many more people can be confident again to travel by road.
      Thank you my dear sister for always watching our videos

      Yet to be tapped 'assets': tourism & the intellectual/capital.
      All...self-hampered.
      We gotta act fast as the global tide/trend fast shifting, away from our 'national-economic-source'...
