I don't know why people are 'acting' like they do not understand what she is driving at. What is the difference really? A Nigerian born outside nigeria but raised in nigeria and then there are the one's born in nigeria but raised abroad and still some born and raised abroad that yes understand their mother tongue and the culture but do not really identify with other nigerians because face it alot of nigerians see them as americans or british or wherever they grew up. There are also people like me born in nigeria, raised in nigeria for the most part, do not speak my language but understand it. Who is to say who is more nigerian than who? Bottom line, be happy with yourself and let those who want to lose sleep about what you should be labeled as lose sleep. We are all brothers and sisters 2 Likes 1 Share |

Hmm, Fox. I understand the topic title, but the rest, well pretty complex to fathom. Didn't really tie in with the title. But, in answer to the topic title, yes, there is a difference, between British-born Nigerian girls, and Nigerian girls born in Nigeria. I'd venture to say, the way you worded your opening post is one of the many differences. |
Re: British Born Nigerian Girl & The Nigerian Born Girl Is There A Differance? by chiogo(f): 6:41pm On Aug 28, 2008 |
@poster, yeah, it is kind@ hard to understand your first post due to "grammatical errors". (you probably rushed thru the post) Although I get what you're asking but I'm sure you can go back and edit them for those who do not by clicking the "modify" button. @topic, yeah, there should be a difference just like a Nigerian born in the states would be different from the Nigerian born in Nigeria. some differences: *accent *dress sense(it differs though) *attitude/way of life The Nigerian born in America is more or less an American which is different from a Nigerian. 1 Like |

britgirlee: Girl, I don't know how old you are but I have to tell you this is plain pathetic. Your writing in English or any other form is purely pathetic and someone needs to make you aware of it. You need to brush up on your writing ASAP. It appears you struggle to string up 3 sentences that makes sense after completion. Careful analysis suggest to me that your lack of writing ability is not due to simple mistakes but due instead to inability to understand the grammatical structure of the English language. Despite repeated notifications by others you still don't get it. YOU NEED TO BRUSH UP ON YOUR ENGLISH WRITING! You don't even use comma's when required and when you do use it, you use it where a full stop would have been more appropraite. |

Re: British Born Nigerian Girl & The Nigerian Born Girl Is There A Differance? by Ibime(m): 10:15am On Aug 29, 2008 |
Every individual is different. There are British born Nigerians with perfect manners and Nigerian born with no manners - and vice versa. It all depends on the girls upbringing and individual choices. I know many Nigerian girls that turn ashawo soon as dem land for jand. |

There are sure to be differences having been brought up in different backgraounds and societies. One other difference may be that they'll probably spell DIFFERENCE properly is they are educated |

for britgirlie Interesting, and sorry to hear that. I just recently posted something asking how life would be for a mixed nigerian brit and I got a racist comment back. Now that you say they basically call you whitey and you're black has just confirmed to me that I would deffo have to put up with racist bs from people out there. as if I don't get enough from whites over here its disappointing to know that If I was to live in my family's home country this is the kind of thing I would have to deal with and probably worse. |

@ Ori india, oh please you are not the first half cast(bi-racial if you prefer) girl on the block. No one is going to hate you based on that. Your personality is all that matters. @OP the only difference I noticed from British raised Nigerians is that they are not aggressive and tend to be calm in scuffles. I have worked with such people before and they were well respected by all due to their calm nature. They do not engage in noisy argument like some Nigerians and they have better manners than American raised Nigerians. Their dress sense is a little reserved (I find it funny at times) Not once did I see anyone pick up quarrel or insult the british raised Nigerians in my work place. Perhaps your personality is the reason for the reactions you get. |

british born nigerians actually adapt better in nigeria than the american borns/raised, imo. maybe there isnt as much overall culture shock perhaps. the americans tend to stick out like a sore thumb. my observation could be wrong though, but i think the british borns are more reserved when in nigeria, compared to the americans who tend to be more social/louder. |
