Lekki Conservation Centre: A Hidden Gem in the Urban Jungle
As I explored the sprawling metropolis of Lagos, Nigeria, a city teeming with people and traffic, I was surprised to find a hidden oasis right in the heart of it: the Lekki Conservation Centre. This 78-hectare reserve is home to a diverse range of wildlife, including monkeys, birds, and crocodiles. It also boasts the longest canopy walkway in Africa, which provided breathtaking views of the surrounding mangrove forest. The centre is not only a place of beauty but also an important conservation site. The staff are dedicated to preserving the natural environment and educating visitors about its importance.
