Nigeria is a country blessed with soooo many ethnic groups and they do differ in soooo many ways.
Amongst these ethnic groups are the Yorubas, Efiks.......okay we know all this tongue
So here are some common misconceptions about Nigerians by Nigerians... Yup within us..

1. Every Calabar person eats dog meat
Oh well.... Dog meat really is a specialty in Calabar but C'mon not everyone would eat their pet.. cheesy

2. In TIV land, men show they value their friends by offering them their wives as kola when they come visiting
Yup! It was practised in TIV land oh so long ago.. But in this generation I guess not..

3. Only Northerners and Westerners have Tribal Marks
Nah... In the south, tribal marks are common.. I think the story behind most is "Casting out Ogbanje" I no know ooo.. lipsrsealed

4. Every Ogoni person is a descendant of Ken Saro Wiwa
We wish.... Trust me I know... Every time I say.. "I'm Ogoni" someone goes "Oh!!!! Saro Wiwa's Sister" Really tho?? undecided
Most people don't even know where Ogoni is... Na for Rivers state ooo.

5. Everyone with the same surname is related
Okay... That someones surname is Same as another doesn't mean they are related.. They might even be from different tribes. I've heard when gossip goes as "So the boy surname na Adeyemi? No wonder e get work for here becos oga na him broda" Oga's surname is Adeyemi.. Smh

6. Everybody is from the most popular town in their state
So every one from Delta state is a Warri sombori... No ooo.. Or that every Cross Riverian is a Calabar person... Or that every Rivers pikin na Ikwerre? No ooo... There are other LGA's too..

Well that's all I can remember for now... You can add yours.. wink
THAW EVERY HAUSA MAN GOES WITH KNIFE IN HIS TROUSER!

If u are not hausa nor yoruba, then u are igbo especially if u are fair skinned ( misconceptions from yorubas and hausas )

If u are a business man and from Anambra then u are illiterate, yet Anambra produced the educated elites of igbo nation like zik, okadigbo, ojukwu, achebe, chimamanda, soludo, dora etc n still tops in competitive exam till date.

If u are from Niger Delta u are a militant

If u are anti-buhari, u are igbo (annoying rants from nairaland apc supporters )
