This is Oshodi pedestrian bridge linking Ilupeju to Oshodi Isale in Lagos Nigeria.
On this bridge many has fallen victim of petty thieves (Pick Pockets), a stroll of less than a minute depending on the traffic can be hellish to some. Pockets, wallets, purses, back packs are not safe here, don't be suprise to see someone opening a back pack and taking stuffs out from it, you dear not talk only the brave can ask Kilon Sie le (What's happening?) The prepatrators of this crime are extremly sharp and ever busy, they work in a group of five to eight. You can never find a lone ranger. But it baffles me to see them opening a backpack and the carrier won't notice the drama behind him. Till they finish someone will just tap him behind and say bros (Mr) see your bag is open.
This can be so painful experience to go through
