How To Identify A Nigerian. by Orunto: 3:12pm On Aug 08, 2014
There are two broad ways you can identify a Nigerian. Number one, there are traits that are evidently apparent to see in any Nigerian, even if he were a proverbial needle in a hayrick. They are traits such as, the Tongue, as in talking and the diphthong; the Look on the faces, strong and stonny; the Character in their faith. Nigerians are wise. They shine everywhere they go. They are good, very active, interactive and always move directionally. You see a collection of Africans, watch them well. Any of them that behave like a Greek or an Italian is a Yorubaman. The Igbos(Ibos) are truely Jewish in all orientation. The Hausa/Fulanis have before been nicknamed Arabs by Uthman Dan Fodio, so they will always want to behave like Arabs. Then their names, the Yorubas bear names that bear references to the God of the Universe or to their Founder daities just like the Greeks and the Italians. The Igbos bear Jewish names and the Hausa/Fulanis bear Arab names. Number two:- There are traits that can be searched for or squeezed from a Nigerian like in a Talent Hunt. You see a group of Africans, ask them to recite the National Anthem and the Pledge of Nigeria. The Nigerians among them will show off something. GOD BLESS NIGERIA!

This is all bull crap and generalisation.

Not all Hausa, Igbo or Fulani people behave like you said. Not all Hausa have Arab names, not all Igbos think they are Jewish. Not all Fulani have Arab names. Closing thread for false information.
