Desola: Have I ever been ashamed of being a Nigerian?

I am always ashamed to say i'm a Nigerian. Always!

safarigirl: No, why? I'd like to explain Nigeria in high school terms.

Nigeria is that popular kid in school who comes from a broken home, whose parents are individaualy rich, but have never quite been able to use their funds to help him. It's the kid whose never been the excellent student, never the star athlete, not the president of the debate team, and probably even has a drinking problem. Nigeria is that popular kid that everyone liked to taunt simply because, they never could figure out what made that kid better than them, there was just something.......

Our 'something' is called the fighting spirit, some refer to it as arrogance and over confidence, but what it is, is the knowledge that no matter how f*cked up you are, there's always someone you're better than. It might not be all that good, but never forget that if people talk about you, you must have something they don't. There are many countries you never hear about, simply because no one finds them important enough in the equation of things, surely we're doing something right.

Nigerians could be delusional, but f*ck it, We Rock and we don't need to explain ourselves to anyone
