Bribing Nigerian police is not uncommon in Nigeria. In fact, it is often seen as the only way to get things done in a country where the rule of law is often disregarded. Police officers in Nigeria are often seen as corrupt and unreliable, and many people believe that the only way to get them to do anything is to bribe them. This can be a costly endeavor, as the average bribe in Nigeria is around N5000-N10,000. However, many people believe that it is worth it in order to get the results they need. This can often be a frustrating experience for foreigners visiting or living in Nigeria, as it can be difficult to get around without paying bribes. However, it is important to understand that this is just a part of life in Nigeria.
