Friend went to Angola and had some 'issues' with getting in, Pretty sure it was Luanda, said he slipped the guy some $$ and had no problem... Don't know the specifics.. was 2-3 years ago. Things may have changed naturally.

I'm really suprised that hasn't happened in Nigeria.. this was at LOS right? Place used to be notorious for stuff like that.
