How safe is Lagos State?
Lagos is generally an unsafe place. From the presence of thugs to the corruption of the police. Lagos is a misogynistic state and it shows in how harassment is treated and taken as the norm. There are definitely safe parts of Lagos. Those are the parts I would recommend to tourists
