Watched the first part last night and boy! is it revealing? It should also be available online on BBC iPlayer.
A very very interesting program.
The Nigerian government is protesting its broadcast and it is even creating some diplomatic spats.
I honestly don't see any thing damaging about it. Rather i see it showing the optimistic nature of Nigerians and a justification to why we are the happiest people in the world.
Its a must watch.
I haven't watched the program, but I can't say I blame the federal govt for protesting. All too often these programmes from these foreign media are designed solely to ridicule a place/country. There are slums in London, New York, Paris etc, but we don't get to see TV programs on those areas captioned Welcome To London, or New York. The title is the most annoying part of it. It is suggestive, as if that is all there's is to Lagos.
But i see it as a greet achievement to our country Nigeria
