Telling our Stories


Nigeria celebrated 50 years of independence a few days ago; once Nigeria comes up in a conversation the stories you hear are most times negative. I however like it when the Nigerian story is told by Nigerians so i was excited to see this BBC 'My Country' documentary.

Nigerian broadcaster and journalist Funmi Iyanda takes us through this documentary telling the Lagos story through everyday people; market women, children, okada (motorcycle taxi) drivers and politicians..
