Few weeks ago, I got a call from a friend asking me out for
a drink, but I was already at the Lagos airport. “I’m not going to be around
for the next few days,” I told him. “I’m going to Abuja.” His immediate
reaction was – “Why? What’s wrong? Do you want to bore yourself to death?”
That’s the typical response I get whenever I tell someone I am travelling to
Abuja. Abuja is a beautiful city with a terrible reputation for boredom. I have
heard people in other cities speak of Lagos as a noisy, dirty and dangerous
city filled with crazy people. In truth, everyone in Lagos is crazy. What else
do you expect in a state crammed with 22 million people?
