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

Nigeria, located in West Africa and flanked by the Atlantic Ocean on the eastern side, is a vibrant blend of cultures, landscapes, and wildlife. As Africa's most populous country, Nigeria is famous for its diverse ethnic groups, each contributing to the rich tapestry of culture and tradition. It's acclaimed for its music – Afrobeat and highlife, as well as its literature, boasting a Nobel laureate in Literature, Wole Soyinka. Nigeria is also home to various UNESCO World Heritage sites, such as the Sukur Cultural Landscape and Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove. Its eclectic wildlife is showcased in reserves such as the Cross River National Park and Yankari National Park, with sightings of rare primate species and warm springs respectively. The hustle and bustle of Lagos, its largest city, offer a stark contrast to the serenity of its beautiful beaches like Calabar beach and Tarkwa Bay.
