‘Nigeria is nowhere near as dangerous as America’ – US rapper DDG speaks from Lagos
American rapper Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr., popularly known as DDG, has dismissed what he described as “fake” Western media narratives about Nigeria’s safety.
The US hip-hop star, who is currently spending time in Lagos, said Nigeria is not as dangerous as it is often portrayed abroad and is “nowhere near” the level of violence seen in the United States.
In a video shared online, DDG said while Nigeria has its security challenges, gun violence and gangster-related crimes are far more common in America.
“I honestly think America is the most dangerous country,” he said. “Nigeria is not as dangerous as America — nowhere near. There’s insecurity here, no doubt, but the level of gun violence and gangsterism you see in the US is different.”
He encouraged foreigners to visit Nigeria and experience the country for themselves rather than rely on stereotypes.
