The Basics
Country:  Nigeria
 
Where is it?:  Nigeria is in western Africa, bordering the Gulf of Guinea, between Benin and Cameroon.
 
Why do people go here?:  The most populous nation in Africa, Nigeria is an extremely chaotic country loaded with a diverse cross sections of cultures, people and religions. Most travelers avoid Nigeria [...]]]></description>

Second: Kaduna to Kano
140 miles in 5 hours for 120 Naira
Kaduna is not such a pleasant city now, due to the usual fervid growth, but it does have a letter for me at Poste Restante so the system does work after all. At the railway station there is not much happening. Some fellows say that [...]]]></description>

Tuesday
Dawn finds us at Ibadan, where the family unloads many sacks of yams, so farewell to the kids. Mum&#8217;s estimate on Saturday of a Tuesday arrival at Lagos is looking to be accurate, and better than any of my mathematical calculations, based as they were on too simple a model. At 7:30 we leave the [...]]]></description>

Sunday
With stops too, so as expected, we do not reach Kaduna around midnight, but after sunrise. The country seems greener; since Bauchi there has been much less dust. At the station, the vendors in the platform shelter seem much as before but there are few people about to sustain them. I have breakfast on rice [...]]]></description>

Saturday
I have some new flyspray, cheap at N100 a can, and acrid, but mosquitoes visit just the same. Then at 3:45am, a train arrives from ahead! The track must be clear at last. Even so, we stay put until six a.m., so as the red glow of dawn just begins, we move off slowly, almost [...]]]></description>

Friday
Another night in Bauchi. More whimperings and screamings, definitely from the carriage ahead of me, and none from the one behind so in the morning I enquire at the 2nd class carriage ahead. Some fellows say that yes, it is a dog, but I don&#8217;t sight the wretched beast, so I can&#8217;t report on what [...]]]></description>

Thursday
Some mosquitoes made a nuisance of themselves, accompanied by more wails and screams from what sounded like a miserable puppy suffering the torments of the lost, but in the light of the morning I see that it is a goat, in the goods wagon behind my carriage. I glower balefully as it superciliously chomps on [...]]]></description>

Wednesday
At 9 a.m. we stop at Gombe, so breakfast, first on rice and stew, then on my own muesli and a litre of UHT milk. Breakfasts after tomorrow can look after themselves. When I go out looking for water (there was none at Maiduguri station), none is available here either, but a fellow approached with [...]]]></description>

Third: Maiduguri to Lagos
1,118 miles in 53 hours for 1,530 Naira
After the rest of Nigeria, Maiduguri is a surprise, as it is the only town I&#8217;ve seen that did not have litter strewn along its streets. There was some, but it was not in drifts and heaps. By contrast, at Kano by one stretch of [...]]]></description>
