Keep valuables properly
Nothing ruins your travel around Lagos like losing your wallet, phone, jewelry, and other items to talented pickpocket. Therefore, you should keep these valuables properly to ensure that you don’t lose them. In addition, you may slightly reduce your extravagance and flamboyance this period in order to get the attention of the wrong people.
