NAIJA"S ENTERTAINMENT LAUGHTER CLUB AFRICA
I believe that the purpose of life is to be happy. From the moment of birth, every human being wants happiness and does not want suffering. Neither social conditioning nor education nor ideology affect this. From the very core of our being, we simply desire contentment. I don't know whether the universe, with its countless galaxies, stars and planets, has a deeper meaning or not, but at the very least, it is clear that we humans who live on this earth face the task of making a happy life for ourselves. Therefore, it is important to discover what will bring about the greatest degree of happiness.

My love for nigerians is this .

I always tell my friends of different african countries especially those who are ivorians and ghanians is that , in the midst of my nigerian friends we are all of different culture,tribes and languages but yet we all come together as 1 and try to relate and there is understanding and communication amongst ourselves.

A british friend has also confirmed this same thing stating that he respects the way we have kept our suffering and smiles within ourselves(inwardly and outwardly) despite the many tribes and ethnic groups we have in Nigeria.
Re: What do you love about Nigerians? by 360command: 1:19am On May 02, 2013
A foreigner once said to me , 'I love nigerians wen dey speak pidgin english'. So it made me confuse somehow. Its like saying 'I love jamaicans wen dey speak jamo english(jamaican pidgin english)'. So I am asking if this can be true ? -- can someone like a countries people because of their vernacular language like pidgin english or pidgin french. I am not talking about the nigerian accent.

The Nigerian complacency, docility, and sense of fatality. Where else in the world will leaders rob the citizens blind,and the citizens pray for the thieves to live long. Instead of light, roads, hospitals, schools, all you hear are shouts of "Alhaji Ranka Dede", "Chief Baba N'iyen", "Chief (Mrs)Mama Ke", and of course "Eze Gburugburu Whocares..." I love Nigeria and Nigerians. I'm planning on running for the Senate in 2015 if there is still a country known by that name cool. I pray to God almighty that Nigerians will still not have "shine" their eyes by then. I know you love Nigeria more than I do. Now you can start insulting me. Seems you do that more than rise up and bring your oppressors down. "ARISE, O COMPATRIOTS"![i][/i]

Re: What do you love about Nigerians? by londoner: 3:47am On May 02, 2013
Well, where do i start?

1 - the inborn high level of self belief and the ability to look beyond preset circumstances.

2 - the off the chain swag...lol

3 - the beautiful food...mmmmm

4 - the beautiful traditional attire and music

5 - the fearlessness to attempt the previously unknown

6 - the ability to succeed even without a stable political climate or regular electricity, even beyond those who mock us for it 9both Nigerian and foreign).

7 - our sense of humour.
