Currently in Calabar, met some lebanese guys and now stay with them. Family has very good connections, managed to make one month visa extention for free. Went through Aba, pretty dodgy place indeed. Otherwise, my Nigeria transit was long but abnsolutely not as bad as i thought. Met really really nice and hospitable people, basicly slept every days at peoples houses I met on the street.
aeet inyang ...
Got your message too late, arrived in Port Harcourt from Benin City at 9 in the evening and acctually got a room a Rollys Hotel for free as i told the manager about my trip when asking him for a place to put my tent, love nigerians.
No problem with police at all, got stopped at maybe 8 Checkpoints but always just where are you from, where are you going, lets take a photo together, bye bye, friendly guys. Even drove through maany checkpoints even though they tried to stop me but nobody tried to follow me, too lazy ...
