A rapper just called Western fearmongering on Nigeria total nonsense. DDG, the American hip-hop artist whose real name is Darryl Granberry Jr., is currently visiting Lagos and slammed the media narrative as completely fake. He argued Nigeria is nowhere near as dangerous as the United States, telling people they should just come see for themselves. In a video, DDG stated that America has way more gun violence and gang problems, admitting Nigeria has its own issues, but pushing back hard on the exaggerated warnings.
He also mentioned getting fed dumb advice before his trip, like how the local food was supposedly unhealthy and that he needed to boil all his water. DDG said that the advice was pure garbage, especially after trying Nigerian jollof rice, which he found perfectly fine. His whole point was that outsiders need to experience the place instead of believing the hype.
