What do you love about Nigerians? by isalegan2: 2:32am On Apr 30, 2013 |
What do you love about Nigerians? Me? As a Nigerian, I love our indomitable spirit, our survivor skills, our sublime self-confidence, our love for family, and our biting sense of humour. Most important, I value our inherited will to excel. 21 Likes |

The food, the humour(esp. Edo/Urhobo folks), the hustling spirit of the men(and the ability to make something out of nothing reminiscent of the biblical turning of water to wine), fashion sense, love/passion for education and being educated, and Super Eagles of Nigeria.... 16 Likes |

Nigerians are a rare breed, I admire their doggedness and resilience. Even in the face of hardship, Nigerians find something to smile about. -You knock a Nigerian down, he picks himself up and keep moving. -You blink an eye in the presence of a Nigerian, he stings you like a scorpion 2 Likes |

What I love abt naija? Definitely d crazy humour! Only in naija do we hav an official "associaton of witches and wizards" (who,during their last meeting on d 29th of january,endorsed certain politians and decided that a few others were in their bad books),lol Only in naija do we hav a police force that arrests a cow for stabbing a 24-year old "teenager" with a broken bottle. Only in naija,dow we hav star-actresses who confess that they are witches during church services. Only in naija do we hav girls with names like 'nneka','kosisochukwu','sikiratu',who,once they leave their family homes,metamorphose into 'Natalia' 'cassandra' 'serena'!lmao! Only in naija (movies) do we hav chicks who are so desperate abt phones that they use "jazz" to turn their men into "bold 5"!hehehe. Only in naija do we celebrity pastors with names like "Sign Fireman" Only in naija,do we hav...My God! D list is endless,lol. 19 Likes |
