A bit of German culture can be experienced at Victoria Iceland (the better-off areas of the city). There is the Goethe-Institut Lagos, where you can borrow to learn German and experience German books German cultural events. But not only lovers of German culture, it is known as a cultural center. So far I have been there twice:
The first time I was with a few volunteers at a meeting nigeranischer former students who studied in Germany. There has been much discussion about the experiences in Germany and was shown a documentary about Munich.
The second time was on the German reggae band "Jahcoustics" with some local reggae artists. The atmosphere was great and the chairs lined up neatly fell into oblivion after a few minutes.
German culture but also lived out in Apapa. In this part of Lagos there is a German school and a German church, and many German to live there. Thence came an elderly Nigerians, who addressed us in German, because he has studied a few years in Germany. Just a couple of times happen to us that Nigerians speak to us in German, either because they have been to Germany or because they have learned the language only pretending.
German and generally Oyinbos you meet on the mainland, although rare. On the Islands (Lagos and Victoria Iceland Iceland), there are even more, however, either the ambassador, Bohrexperte for a multinational oil company or traffic engineer with Julius Berger ...
