DEAR LISTENER,

Welcome to Yourpenship: Loving Lagos. In this episode, “Rain, Rides, and the Owa That Got Away,” we dive into the storms, danfo rides, and little Lagos lessons that make everyday life on the mainland unforgettable.

From flooded streets where children turn plastic bowls into boats, to danfo conductors shouting with lungs of steel, to the eternal struggle of saying “Owa!” at the right time, we uncover how Lagos chaos somehow always leaves room for humor, fellowship, and kindness.

If you’ve ever whispered instead of shouted at your bus stop, waded through knee-deep water just to get home, or shared an umbrella with a stranger, this one’s for you.

We want to hear from you!

• What’s your wildest danfo memory?

• Have you ever missed a stop because you couldn’t get the “Owa” out?

• What surprising kindness has Lagos shown you on a rainy day?

DEAR LISTENER,

Welcome to Yourpenship: and in this season of Loving Lagos, this episode captures the grit, humor, and heart of surviving and thriving in Africa’s busiest city.

In this episode, we wage war on one of Lagos's greatest trials: the spiritual rite of passage known as house hunting. From "executive mini flats" with no doors to balconies that are literally just a single plank, join me as i dodges fictional agents, near-demolished buildings, and the temptation to accept sheer nonsense just for a moment's peace. It’s a full-body workout for your patience, budget, and last ounce of dignity.

If you’ve ever or never been told “ajah to ikoyi is just two bridges away,” been shown a bathroom with no door, or considered sharing a prepaid meter with 15 other people, this episode is for you.

💌 Share your story with us!

What’s the worst thing an agent has ever told you? Have you seen a house so bad you had to laugh? We’d love to feature your flat-hunting horror stories on the podcast!

Welcome to Yourpenship: and in this season of Loving Lagos, the podcast captures the grit, humor, and heart of surviving and thriving in Africa’s busiest city.

In this first episode, we dive into the unforgettable experience of NYSC in Lagos: the early mornings, endless traffic, WhatsApp drama, and the surprising power of kindness in a city that rarely slows down. From dodging potholes in your khaki uniform to finding your PPA without “connections,” this is a real-life story of resilience, hustle, and unexpected opportunities.

If you’ve ever shouted “Corper Wee!”, squeezed into an overcrowded BRT, or wondered why Lagos feels like a reality show you didn’t sign up for, this episode is for you.
