How can you have internet in Nigeria???

Being out of Nigeria, you get lots of reality checks, especially being a first time traveller, WiFi being one of the tops. It's no news that WiFi owners in our dear country secure their connection under heavy guidance of unfathomable passwords, leaving poor internet users like me who wish to watch YouTube videos at the cruel hands of our 10-megabyte data. So going to Europe as an international student, you spend the first few months watching videos like no tomorrow, you play video games with no mercy, install and uninstall apps at will, stream unnecessary live videos, basically torturing the internet that tortured you back home. All these will soon stop when school starts and you have to 'not carry last' as a Naija person. Having 'white' friends is the dream of 80% of Nigerian students who travel abroad, if not how else do friends and family know that you're 'in the abroad'? Everyone is white as long as they don't have melanin donning their skin...
