Meanwhile in Benin Republic🇧🇯, the beaches are free.
You can randomly park your car and walk into the beach.
To add, the beaches are very clean and filled with trees.
Benin republic, 2- 4hours away from Lagos, will show you that the things we consider luxury in Nigeria are truly basic.

The last time I was in Lagos I paid to enter a beach in Lekki.
Not a resort. Not a water park. A beach.
Sand. Water. A coastline that existed long before any of us were born.
Someone bought it. Fenced it. Put a gate on it. Now you pay to touch the ocean.
What kind of government sells its people access to nature?
Happy Democracy Day. 🇳🇬
