I used to steadily search TH-cam for videos to see what Lagos looks like now. I’ve stuck to your channels since I found you. You’ve been very helpful with your wonderful videos 👍👍👍
thanks a lot for watching and for your comment ! I am glad you found the channel, and finally found what you were looking for ! please feel free to subscribe to the channel and share that video to help it travelling around where are you watching from ? you plan to come to lagos ?
@@Ludo_Liu remind me of my chilhood days in Jamaica this is the Saturday routine at the beach all day along with some fish rusting after the catch comes in , a little beach soccer a swim and back home.😀🇯🇲🇸🇳
Though, I lived in Lagos for years, I never visited this beautiful place. This video brings to mind how beautifully God created our earth for humans to enjoy forever. Thanks for all your efforts on the video.
thank you so much for your comment and your support ! it counts a lot, and gives me more energy to build even better content ! I wish you a lovely Sunday !
yeah and they are fished far from the mouth of the polluted laguna. thanks a lot for watching and for your comment ! please feel free to subscribe to the channel and share that video to help it travelling around
The singing is beautiful, thanks Ludo Liu. Cultures and traditions like this is quickly being lost in many parts of the country, so a documentary like this makes a lot of difference.
thanks a lot my dear, i really appreciate ! yes i feel culture and tradition are disappearing here, the same way it disappeared a long time ago in the west... that is sad.thanks a lot for watching, i am glad people can appreciate !!! happy new year !
OMG.. a vacation paradise. This is some prime land and very beautiful... I can just see myself on the beach listening to those waves and reading a good book lol
Those are my Ghana / Ewe brothers, normally migrates from the towns of Woe, Tegbi, Havedzi, Horvi, Blekusu and other surrounding areas, I clearly understands the songs and the rythims. And they will return home after 1 or 2 years to share whatever money they were able to accumulates per the fishing season.
This is life outside the city of Lagos , it's peaceful , the people are laid back , I could enjoy living near the water and seeing it everyday give me lounge chair and a beer and I just sit and watch the waves
Those fishermen are extremely fit. I wonder how their traditional way of life will change when all those building projects are completed. Hopefully the new refinery and developments will not pollute the local ecosystem.
people in the business use to say Lagos is one of the best place to invest and create ! You should maybe give it a try, many things could be done here.
thanks a lot for watching, and for your comment, Yes they changed a lot, and still developing please feel free to subscribe to see more videos of Nigeria like this one !
Fantastic job. I started watching your video in Toronto Canada. I love all your videos. When I left Nigeria, there was nothing like Lekki or Ajah development. So I watched them on your videos.
Thanks a lot Sir for your feedback ! Yes no Ajah, no Lekki, just nature and forest at that time. it changes fast....I remember last year i left for 3 weeks, when i came-back i could not recognize a place not far from my house, the junction had completely changed.... Lagos is moving, however what negative persons are saying, i think it is for the best !
thanks a lot for watching and for your comment ! I will do more outside of Lagos ! for sure ! please feel free to subscribe to the channel and share that video to help it travelling around
From the songs, I think the fishing communities are “ Egu “ or Fon. Fon are minority ethnicity in Lagos. They are predominantly a major ethnicity in Benin republic and Togo. They are also the predominant ethnicity in Badagry. In fact, the Oba of Badagry is of Egu. They have been living side by side with the Awori- Yoruba ethnicity since the Dahomey- Oyo empire. They mostly practice African ancestry spirituality. Although some are of religious faiths.
@@Ludo_Liu Thanks too for giving us these videos. Egu or Fon are naturally peaceful and welcome people. They are mostly fishing people. They built the ancient Dahomey kingdom where the Amazon women warriors played in Wakanda - Black Panther originally came from. ❤️

OMG thankks so much for this I am coming to Nigeria in March for 2wks and I was a bit nervous. But after this video I am excited and will be visiting this beautiful place. Thank you so much.
By the time the airport, refinery, etc. come on stream I wonder how the roads would be, if no plan is made for a wider lane road; the roads would be disastrous.
You are completely right, i think they already planned another road...at least i hope.... there is a big straight line of threes cut for dozens of km, more in land... this looks like a road project
..I still remembered seeing this from the fishermen at Epe during ileya festival when I was like 12yrs. It really intrigued me then, esp if you are brought up in city - Lagos Island (Onola Square). Very relaxing watching the coordinated efforts.
@@Ludo_Liu are you meaning them gathering all of the fish ?. Yes... I saw until the end. I was wondering how long would that last before they wouks have to cast again. I loved how toward the end, everyone helped even the kids
SO 😀I am watching all the way from the Caribbean.Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 to be exact and up to this day we still do that pulling of the nets.We call it,”Pulling Sane.”When the fish 🐠 comes in they share with the entire village.It screams togetherness every time I view.Couple communities on the Island 🏝 still practice that fishing method.It’s very interesting to see the Origin of it.After all,we,Caribbean people came from Africa.As a child I always wondered.Couple years ago the Art-form was dying in our country and the government decided to include it in our annual heritage festival.Now ,tourist view it in Tobago Heritage Festival every year amongst other Traditions we inherited from our forefathers.Thank you sooooo much for the content.I’ve subscribed shared to a friend and liked already.Keep on displaying Nigeria’s 👏👏Rich Culture.We will continue to watch.😉😉🙂🙏😇

Beautiful atmosphere.I just started watching your videos and I enjoy this one very much, imagine spending a week there,someone would come back refresh. Keep the good work.
This blog, like all the ones you’ve made, is very informative. The only issue that I see is trying to read the caption on the screen without having to strain the eyes. Kindly write in bigger and bolder font.
Thanks a lot for your comment, and for your advice about the subtitles. I made them bigger for the next video coming tomorrow . I hope it's gonna be okay. please kindly let me know
Interesting video. I wonder how any generations have lived i in that community? The patching of the road is also done in jamaica 🇯🇲 by the community, sometimes its genuine and other times its a scam. 😆
thanks a lot for watching and for your comment ! Yes you have to go, if you drive outside Lagos, following the sea side, you'll find dozen of villages like this one please feel free to subscribe to the channel and share that video to help it travelling around

This is where to hide from Lagos hectic life. This place just needs some clean-up and some quietness and all will be interesting and good heaven to relax.
Beautiful!🙏🏾 it gave me chills to watch. I’m so happy I made the decision to relocate in a few months to Lagos from the east coast of the States. From my first visit, Nigeria has been calling me back and I can’t wait to get back home.
No I am from Ogun State. Now I am living and working in Abidjan (Ivory Coast). Here there is a place named Petit Bassam where I follow fishermen in so kind of action during some week-ends. I enjoy it
@@Ludo_Liu Merci bien, c'est tout simplement parce que je suis né en Côte d'Ivoire et que j'y ai effectué tout mon parcours académique du primaire à mon diplôme d'ingénieur. En tant que Nigérian de père et de mère, je n'ai découvert le Nigéria pleinement qu'en 2004. D'où ma réaction assez pessimiste dans l'une de mes intervention. Car la première impression que j'ai eu en le visitant pour la première fois, est la discrimination visible qui y existe que l'on soit pauvre ou riche. Ce n'est pas comme ici en Côte d'Ivoire, dont le système social calqué sur la France permet un système assez égalitaire entre les différentes classes. Sans oublier l'électricité et l'eau qui sont disponible, ce qui n'est pas le cas de mon pays le Nigéria. Bon vent pour tout ce que tu fais. Sans le savoir tes vidéos fouette l'orgueil et les met en face de la réalité de ce qu'est leur pays.
I just subscribed. I'm loving your videos. I always wanted to see Lagos and now that covid has arrived, I doubt I'll be able to visit any time soon so it's nice to be able to see a little bit of Lagos through your videos. Hopefully I'll be able to visit my friends there one of these days. Stay safe!
Thanks so much for that comment, yes the situation is not the best , but actually not worth than in many countries in the west or europe... you should come as soon as you can. you'll enjoy Lagos.
@@Ludo_Liu I'm fishing out of Hammerfest, Norway. We are fishing with danish seine and now we are catching cod. Do you know dried cod head from Norway? I think Norway export a lot of dried cod head to Nigeria :)
@@steinj6439 yes i know !!! my wife buy it a lot ! she is really found of it ! that is so funny ! I think fishing there must be amazing, clear, cold waters,very different from here ! thanks a lot for your answer ! please feel free to subscribe and share this video or any other on the channel !
Its a shame that the Community got so little fish for the effort they put in. Another bad ass Clip From u bro. It was a thrill. Keep on smashing it. 👌👌👌
Bonjour Ludo! How are you doing today? Been waiting for a new (motorcycle) video. Maybe that trip from Lagos to Abuja would be a good idea, though I understand that you have to film on your free time so these things take time. A question: about the sandy beaches near Lagos, how many of them are public? "Free zone" suggests it's public. Hopefully, most of the other beaches haven't been privatized. If this is the case, it's wrong if you ask me. Either way, was my 2nd time I watched this video and enjoyed it as much as the first time. Hope all is well with you! Te mando muchos abrazos 💜 (I'm half-Venezuelan, half-Finnish, born and raised in Maracaibo that is a very hot city). Now living in Phoenix AZ, but gonna move back to Finland before Christmas. I miss the safety of that country. Here in Phoenix, you have pay for the safety. All the best. Ciao! 👋💕
Marisol, i am so sorry i missed that comment. i really appreciate your amazing support and the dedication you put in sharing your feelings, your comments. thanks so much for that ! You make me feel so happy to belong to a so nice family !
thanks a lot, yes it is so quiet. it is my little paradise close to Lagos. i am premiering another video in less than an hour, i hope to see you there my dear;
Thank you, sir. I love this particular video a lot. I like the village beach and what is needed there is to educate the people to take good care of their environment by clearing the plastic around the area which might be dangerous to the fish thereby reducing the yield and quality.
thanks a lot for your support my dear ! I am glad you liked that place and that video. yes education is the key, government has a role but more over elder, parents, brothers and sisters
thank you so much ! I am gad you enjoyed that video ! if you want to see more, i am premiering another one in less than an hour ! I 'll be glad to see you !
Nice job and well done l was trying to buy property in Nigeria but l don't know place when they describe or showed real estate videos but this kind of give you and insight to what to expect thank you very much dude
thanks a lot my dear for that feedback ! I am glad this video could help the investors to understand more about the city ! please feel free to subscribe if you want to see more of these videos.
Love these videos. Your concept is spot on! It would be good if you can do a moving map in the bottom corner so that we can know exactly where you are. Cheers!
I wish i could do this moving map, it it would be dozens of hours of work, and i am not sure i can manage to do such things. it would requiered to work on after effects to do some animation, this is really really long and time consuming. last time i worked on an animation on after effect, it was for a 8 seconds intro for one of my drone video on the other channel. it took me 14 hours work, and 15 hour encoding it... but yes that's a brillant idea. I will try to add more maps in the next videos !
OR...do a screen recording of google maps as you ride and then time sync? But, The simplest way is to put a picture insert of the map in the lower right corner and highlight the road your driving on. That way, it will not be a moving animation. Keep up the good work and keep it simple! It’s is such a genius concept. I’ve been telling all my friends about it. I cannot believe that I sat and watched the video for 1 hour plus! That right there is the greatest credit I can give you. It shows that you have my attention. Lastly, be consistent with your posting. Whatever timetable you choose (once a week, once every 2 weeks, once a month), be VERY consistent. If you say you’re going to post a by a certain date, be sure to do it at all cost OR post something that says there will be a delay. This is the only way that we will be able to refer your work to others. Good work. Good luck.

LOlz Mr. Liu! .... The production of A380 was stopped and in Naija we are still planning airports for it's use! Well, they can deploy the A350s and B777s ..... But Mr. Liu, where do you get these information?
@@Ludo_Liu Thanks Mr. Liu! I have been trying to be "positive". In fact I have resorted to taking TCM and Qigong to restore my sanity! .... I am serious about this and this is why I like your videos because the visuals without commentaries is just what I needed. Once again, thanks for the videos!
Thanks. Really nice journeying beyond Lekki, and very informative. The proposed plans sound good, and I hope that in establishing a Lekki Airport, the Murtala MIA doesn't go down the drain alongside a further disparity and neglect of Lagos Mainland. My issue has always been that we focus on quantity over quality. MMIA is still not at the level it can and should be, so I'm a bit "hmmm" 🤷🏾♀️ about a Lekki Airport which though a good idea, will serve to widen the disparity. I'm a beach person, so really enjoyed that part (couldn't work out the language they were singing in, & defo not Yoruba🤔). Already picturing beach resorts close to the beach itself like Tarkwa Bay was in the 70s to mid 90s, & as you get in Cape Verde, The Gambia, Zanzibar, Mauritius, Tunisia, Egypt etc. 👏🏾🙏🏾
I know a little about capeverde, i stayed in Santiago Praia...for 14 months . I really liked the atmosphere in cape Verde. I am also a man of water, swimming, fishing, snorkelling and surfing are some my hobbies please feel free to share this video has much as you can on facebook etc... to help me to develop my small channel I wish you a wonderful day !
@@Ludo_Liu14 months is a long time in Cape Verde, lucky you! I'm defo a beach baby, and was in Boa Vista for a month. Hoping to visit Sal sometime in the future! Re sharing, of course! My friends and family have the previous ones, I'll share this asap as I really enjoy them! 👍🏾
@@abdvantage I am not found of Sal, it is kind of empty, a trap for tourist who want to stay locked in their deluxe hotel. Not the best cultural experience ! I recommand San Antao a lot more than Sal
Hi Andrei, the first toll gate we use to pay before. After the massacre in it, last october, it has been burned and now it is kind of free.... the second has never worked for real... this is a very sensible problem, has the money from these tolls gates for some of them are going to some very specific persons...
That is a beautiful beach they just need to take pride in it and clean it up or ban plastic bottles, one can easily extrapolate from the condition of the beach how aware people are it’s almost like they are innocent / ignorant in some ways. that is prime real estate in USA.
Despite all of the madness, I really do miss home where I can be wild and free....
yes ! in few minutes or hours it is possible to be in some amazing natural places !
cheers from Lagos !

Thank you very much my dear friend ! I am glad you enjoyed that video ! We should maybe do one trip together one day !
Beautiful atmosphere.I just started watching your videos and I enjoy this one very much, imagine spending a week there,someone would come back refresh. Keep the good work.
Thanks so much!?!
This blog, like all the ones you’ve made, is very informative. The only issue that I see is trying to read the caption on the screen without having to strain the eyes. Kindly write in bigger and bolder font.
Thanks a lot for your comment, and for your advice about the subtitles. I made them bigger for the next video coming tomorrow .
I hope it's gonna be okay. please kindly let me know
Bigger subtitles are better please. Still loving your channel ❤❤❤👍🏾🏘‼
Wow.. super high way . Didn’t realize Lagos has stretched this long
Lagos is Huge, from badagry to epe, you feel you never quit the city almost
thanks a lot for watching my dear !
Interesting video. I wonder how any generations have lived i in that community? The patching of the road is also done in jamaica 🇯🇲 by the community, sometimes its genuine and other times its a scam. 😆
yeah you never know... i support them this time...
We are not “ first cousins” for nothing Norma, as it is Jamaica 🇯🇲 so it is in Nigeria 🇳🇬, the road building scammers I mean !
@@aframaco9491 I agree. One family.
Wow! This beach is beautiful.. I must visit one day..
thanks a lot for watching and for your comment ! Yes you have to go, if you drive outside Lagos, following the sea side, you'll find dozen of villages like this one

This is where to hide from Lagos hectic life. This place just needs some clean-up and some quietness and all will be interesting and good heaven to relax.
it is already a kind of small paradise where i use to go relax with my wife and kids.... thanks a lot for watching and for your comment !
My Brother, this place needs no so called clean up. Its already cleaned up. U only need to visit and enjoy the tranquility.
@40:15 🤣🤣🤣 Wonderful video thank you
Thank you too, without an audience the videos are meaningless
Beautiful!🙏🏾 it gave me chills to watch. I’m so happy I made the decision to relocate in a few months to Lagos from the east coast of the States. From my first visit, Nigeria has been calling me back and I can’t wait to get back home.
Wonderful!, welcome back to Naija !!!!
from Malaysia...thank you for an excellent
video
Thank you too for taking time to watch and drop a comment !
that is really appreciated and helpful
I am really enjoying all your videos…I am learning so much…wish I could visit one day
Maybe one day! i wish it for you !
unity and solidarity in action
yes that s the only way to survive...
thanks a lot for your comment !
merci à toi très cher, j'apprécie beaucoup de voir tes commentaires ici !
No I am from Ogun State. Now I am living and working in Abidjan (Ivory Coast). Here there is a place named Petit Bassam where I follow fishermen in so kind of action during some week-ends. I enjoy it
@@felixolaogun i also love the countryside life.Votre français est très bon ! félicitation
@@Ludo_Liu Merci bien, c'est tout simplement parce que je suis né en Côte d'Ivoire et que j'y ai effectué tout mon parcours académique du primaire à mon diplôme d'ingénieur. En tant que Nigérian de père et de mère, je n'ai découvert le Nigéria pleinement qu'en 2004. D'où ma réaction assez pessimiste dans l'une de mes intervention. Car la première impression que j'ai eu en le visitant pour la première fois, est la discrimination visible qui y existe que l'on soit pauvre ou riche. Ce n'est pas comme ici en Côte d'Ivoire, dont le système social calqué sur la France permet un système assez égalitaire entre les différentes classes. Sans oublier l'électricité et l'eau qui sont disponible, ce qui n'est pas le cas de mon pays le Nigéria. Bon vent pour tout ce que tu fais. Sans le savoir tes vidéos fouette l'orgueil et les met en face de la réalité de ce qu'est leur pays.
You do fabulous work …keep it up ☺️☺️
Thank you so much 😀
Ludo, what an amazing immersive video documentary. Quite fascinating and intriguing. Thanks very much for sharing. 👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾🔥🔥🔥💯
Glad you enjoyed it! thanks so much Anthony !
really enjoyed that..thank you. I watched similar scenes along the beaches in Ghana many years ago.
Yeah, i have seen this close to el mina too... nice memories, i loved ghana's coast, so many beautiful boats so colourful
I just subscribed. I'm loving your videos. I always wanted to see Lagos and now that covid has arrived, I doubt I'll be able to visit any time soon so it's nice to be able to see a little bit of Lagos through your videos. Hopefully I'll be able to visit my friends there one of these days. Stay safe!
Thanks so much for that comment, yes the situation is not the best , but actually not worth than in many countries in the west or europe...
you should come as soon as you can. you'll enjoy Lagos.
That fisherman part was awesome! I am a fisherman myself and i would love to see how they do this in real life. Great video
Hi my dear ! where are you fishing ? what type of fishing ? I love fishing too....
.thanks a lot for watching, please feel free to subscribe
@@Ludo_Liu I'm fishing out of Hammerfest, Norway. We are fishing with danish seine and now we are catching cod. Do you know dried cod head from Norway? I think Norway export a lot of dried cod head to Nigeria :)
@@steinj6439 yes i know !!! my wife buy it a lot ! she is really found of it ! that is so funny ! I think fishing there must be amazing, clear, cold waters,very different from here !
thanks a lot for your answer ! please feel free to subscribe and share this video or any other on the channel !
You be scaring me lol...be careful 😉 Thanks for taking us on your travels 🇳🇬👋🏾
don ' be scared sister, nothing go happen o. did you like the fishing ?
@@Ludo_Liu loved everything about this video!! The fishing looked like fun & AMAZING!!!
ALL THAT FISH!!! WONDERFUL 🇳🇬❣️
This is stunning
Thank you so much for watching and for this comment !
yes it is a little paradise
Its a shame that the Community got so little fish for the effort they put in.
Another bad ass Clip From u bro. It was a thrill. Keep on smashing it. 👌👌👌
thank you so much for your comment once more Elisabeth !
i really deeply appreciate your support !
I wish you a very good day !
Ur best Clip ever. U too a very good day.
Bonjour Ludo! How are you doing today? Been waiting for a new (motorcycle) video. Maybe that trip from Lagos to Abuja would be a good idea, though I understand that you have to film on your free time so these things take time. A question: about the sandy beaches near Lagos, how many of them are public? "Free zone" suggests it's public. Hopefully, most of the other beaches haven't been privatized. If this is the case, it's wrong if you ask me. Either way, was my 2nd time I watched this video and enjoyed it as much as the first time. Hope all is well with you! Te mando muchos abrazos 💜 (I'm half-Venezuelan, half-Finnish, born and raised in Maracaibo that is a very hot city). Now living in Phoenix AZ, but gonna move back to Finland before Christmas. I miss the safety of that country. Here in Phoenix, you have pay for the safety. All the best. Ciao! 👋💕
Marisol, i am so sorry i missed that comment.
i really appreciate your amazing support and the dedication you put in sharing your feelings, your comments.
thanks so much for that !
You make me feel so happy to belong to a so nice family !
This is awesome 👌 thanks for taking us on the trip!
thanks a lot for watching, and for your comment !
I am glad you enjoyed it !!!!
happy new year
nice one!
thanks a lot for taking tie to drop a comment !
Keep doing more. Your Okun Ajah video inspired me to buy land there.
If I had money i would do so ! nice decision ! i think it is a good place to invest !
😀This area is great not congested like your previous video which the roads needs improvements
thanks a lot, yes it is so quiet. it is my little paradise close to Lagos.
i am premiering another video in less than an hour, i hope to see you there my dear;
Thanks Liu for sharing, you make me feel at home
Thanks a ot Felix, I am glad you enjoyed this video !
are you originally from the fisherman village
Thank you, sir. I love this particular video a lot.
I like the village beach and what is needed there is to educate the people to take good care of their environment by clearing the plastic around the area which might be dangerous to the fish thereby reducing the yield and quality.
thanks a lot for your support my dear !
I am glad you liked that place and that video.
yes education is the key, government has a role but more over elder, parents, brothers and sisters
Good job, bro !!!! Lagos and Nigeria are great !!!
thanks for the comment on the job i did ! Yes Nigeria is a really nice country !
I like this video very good
thank you so much ! I am gad you enjoyed that video !
if you want to see more, i am premiering another one in less than an hour !
I 'll be glad to see you !
Nice job and well done l was trying to buy property in Nigeria but l don't know place when they describe or showed real estate videos but this kind of give you and insight to what to expect thank you very much dude
thanks a lot my dear for that feedback ! I am glad this video could help the investors to understand more about the city !
please feel free to subscribe if you want to see more of these videos.
This was awesome
thanks a lot for watching and taking time to comment!
I am glad you enjoyed that video !
Love these videos. Your concept is spot on! It would be good if you can do a moving map in the bottom corner so that we can know exactly where you are. Cheers!
I wish i could do this moving map, it it would be dozens of hours of work, and i am not sure i can manage to do such things. it would requiered to work on after effects to do some animation, this is really really long and time consuming. last time i worked on an animation on after effect, it was for a 8 seconds intro for one of my drone video on the other channel. it took me 14 hours work, and 15 hour encoding it...
but yes that's a brillant idea. I will try to add more maps in the next videos !
@@Ludo_Liu what about inserting a picture of your position on the map - especially at key points like when you turn.
OR...do a screen recording of google maps as you ride and then time sync?
But, The simplest way is to put a picture insert of the map in the lower right corner and highlight the road your driving on. That way, it will not be a moving animation.
Keep up the good work and keep it simple! It’s is such a genius concept. I’ve been telling all my friends about it. I cannot believe that I sat and watched the video for 1 hour plus! That right there is the greatest credit I can give you. It shows that you have my attention.
Lastly, be consistent with your posting. Whatever timetable you choose (once a week, once every 2 weeks, once a month), be VERY consistent. If you say you’re going to post a by a certain date, be sure to do it at all cost OR post something that says there will be a delay. This is the only way that we will be able to refer your work to others.
Good work. Good luck.
Lovely

@@Ludo_Liu Ok. Thanks 🙏🏿
@@jude3800 welcome my dear, where are you staying ?
@@Ludo_Liu I’ll be staying in ikeja. I watched the first video you posted about Ibejubu on your original channel over and over.
Great
thanks a lot Sir !
Nice video, and lovely beach! I have enjoyed watching your many videos from Lagos. Would you please considerate uploading a video driving to/from Murtala Mohammed intl Airport some day. Would be cool.
thanks a lot for watching, and for your comment !
You can find many videos from youtuber showing this, arrival or departure.
I may do it one day, sooner or later !

I wish people will just try and plant the palm trees, at least replace them.
yes it is important, they also protect the coast line from too rapid erosion
àAdebukola Adedeji This is a very important thing. Government needs to start educating such community on the need of protecting their environment and encouraging them
Exactly, take care of & nurture their surroundings. They don't valu what they have. Sad
Thank you so much for sharing this experience with the world. This reminds me when I lived in Panama. I love fresh seafood. It's my hope to visit Nigeria very soon!
thanks a lot ! I a also found of fresh sea food !
Honestly, I wanted to be there helping with that fishing net. I wish people can pick up the plastic waste, littering the beach 🏖 .
thanks a lot for watching and for your comment !
This video is superb!
thank you very much !
This is a dope video and a sick Chanel.

I’m just imagining my street racing tires on all that sand. Skid city
22:00 lol the guys pretending o this had me laughing
I actually think he was... However, i can support him for his actor play
U welcome and keep up the great vlog!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks a lot for taking time to leave a comment Sir, i really appreciate !
LOlz Mr. Liu! .... The production of A380 was stopped and in Naija we are still planning airports for it's use! Well, they can deploy the A350s and B777s ..... But Mr. Liu, where do you get these information?
I read the news too ! it was on today's news, yes, but this plan has been engaged few years ago. try to be positive you'll see it is good !
@@Ludo_Liu Thanks Mr. Liu! I have been trying to be "positive". In fact I have resorted to taking TCM and Qigong to restore my sanity! .... I am serious about this and this is why I like your videos because the visuals without commentaries is just what I needed. Once again, thanks for the videos!
Thanks. Really nice journeying beyond Lekki, and very informative. The proposed plans sound good, and I hope that in establishing a Lekki Airport, the Murtala MIA doesn't go down the drain alongside a further disparity and neglect of Lagos Mainland.
My issue has always been that we focus on quantity over quality. MMIA is still not at the level it can and should be, so I'm a bit "hmmm" 🤷🏾♀️ about a Lekki Airport which though a good idea, will serve to widen the disparity.
I'm a beach person, so really enjoyed that part (couldn't work out the language they were singing in, & defo not Yoruba🤔).
Already picturing beach resorts close to the beach itself like Tarkwa Bay was in the 70s to mid 90s, & as you get in Cape Verde, The Gambia, Zanzibar, Mauritius, Tunisia, Egypt etc. 👏🏾🙏🏾
I know a little about capeverde, i stayed in Santiago Praia...for 14 months .
I really liked the atmosphere in cape Verde.
I am also a man of water, swimming, fishing, snorkelling and surfing are some my hobbies
please feel free to share this video has much as you can on facebook etc...
to help me to develop my small channel
I wish you a wonderful day !
@@Ludo_Liu14 months is a long time in Cape Verde, lucky you! I'm defo a beach baby, and was in Boa Vista for a month. Hoping to visit Sal sometime in the future!
Re sharing, of course! My friends and family have the previous ones, I'll share this asap as I really enjoy them! 👍🏾
@@abdvantage I am not found of Sal, it is kind of empty, a trap for tourist who want to stay locked in their deluxe hotel. Not the best cultural experience ! I recommand San Antao a lot more than Sal
It looks like, like most places, the toll gates on the highway aren't finished yet, so it's free to use?
Hi Andrei, the first toll gate we use to pay before. After the massacre in it, last october, it has been burned and now it is kind of free....
the second has never worked for real... this is a very sensible problem, has the money from these tolls gates for some of them are going to some very specific persons...
Interesting video. Are you a Nigeria Ludo?
in my heart yes, i am african, but my skin remains white
That is a beautiful beach they just need to take pride in it and clean it up or ban plastic bottles, one can easily extrapolate from the condition of the beach how aware people are it’s almost like they are innocent / ignorant in some ways. that is prime real estate in USA.
A ban of plastic could be a so good thing !!! thanks a lot for watching and for taking time to drop a comment !
The local authorities should maintain the waterfront in clean order.
yes and teach the new generation how to do it , I agreeon that
