It would have to be one of the most lawless countries on the planet. To live there, particularly if you're from the West, is taking your life into your hands and if those hands aren't filled with hard cash, when it's demanded, then you're on your own.
The last time I visited Nigeria was 13 years ago when leaders from around the Commonwealth had decided to have their annual knees-up in the relatively newly created capital Abuja. The old one, crime-ridden Lagos, had become too hard to handle.

We'd already had trouble of our own checking into our hotels where credit cards meant nothing and where shoe boxes filled with hard cash were instead demanded. If you couldn't come up with it, you were on the street.
