The Constant Use Of The Word "Nigga" By Africans by darlingtonNYIG(m): 8:24pm On Sep 11, 2014
I have noticed most times here in Nigeria we refer to the so called big boys or guys that know what's up as "niggas", we derive joy in been referred to as a nigga, but abroad such is seen as a derogatory word in referring to a black man as a nigga. Most people liken it to the so much influence of the Hip Hop world but me tend to disagree; I see it as mere stupidity and the joy to belong or to identified as a "wanna be" person. I don't really know why we don't learn things that are positive from our brothers in Americas or Europe.

It's commonly used here too.

Personally I don't socialize with folks that use derogatory terminologies and consider those that do to be uneducated.

Martin Luther King and others suffered and fought for us to shed these sorts of social inequities.

If you want to copy the US, copy our space programs, copy our mechanized agriculture, copy our great healthcare, copy our interstate freeway system, copy our military might, copy our world leading healthcare system, copy our blind justice, copy our freedom to pursue life and liberty.

Please don't copy calling each other the N words or wearing your pants down at your knees.
