What you described as "hilarious" is actually a sad commentary on our society! Neo-colonialism is inherently worse than colonialism! I have seen incidents like this and what beats me is the cowed expression and resignation that I find on the faces of Nigerians at such instances! A mark of the beast, and a mark of defeated people!

Incidentally, I'm like you...I don't allow such monstrosity and I have gotten flak for that, not from the white folk, but largely from over-zealous hirelings and fellow Nigerians who don't get what the matter is all about!

Even on Nairaland, do we really know what it's all about?

Soro niyen?

[b]This morning, as I landed in Lagos, I made to the
nearest GTB to transact. The queue from inside
the banking hall to the bank entrance was crazy.
They are customers who wanna register for their
BVN, I was told. Today is the last day for
registration, they said. I wished them well as I
aligned with the shorter queue for customers
who wanna deposit cash.
Soon, from the BVN queue, a woman began to
scream. The only thing I was able to pick from
the scream, 'se ori meji loni ni? (does he have
two heads?' I stepped out of my queue, to go
and gbeborun, to see what or who was
tormenting this woman. These GTB staff that are
always garbed in white military-like uniform; are
they drivers or security men? About three of
them had just came in with one whiteman. And
they took the whiteman straight to the lady at
the BVN desk. And the lady, too, was already
attending to the whiteman while the queue
watched, and waited, except this woman.
For a moment, I observed things. The woman
screaming against this white supremacy on the
soil of Africa is one local market woman. I
figured through her dressing, the way she tied
her purse around her waist, and when she
lamented that they left their wares to come join
this queue since they heard the exercise was
gonna close today. The men in white and the
whiteman weren't bothered by the woman's
noise. It was a case of allowing the dog bark all
it can till it can bark no more. The people on the
queue were indifferent. Some of them, their
looks carried the undertone, 'shey this woman
wey dey shout want oyinbo to join the queue ni?
Haba!'
I stepped into the circle, calming the woman.
And then, I took the fight from there. I banged
the desk twice, and instantly I got everyone's
attention. How can these men in white bring this
man in and wouldn't tell him to join the queue? I
began. Hey madam, pointing to GTB staff by the
BVN desk, you can only attend to this man when
he joins the queue! Who are you? One of the
idiots in white turned at me. I jega'ed him. I am
a ten year old customer of GTB, I said, with a
brief smile. At this point, everything stood still.
Tell this man to join the queue, I insisted. When
the whiteman's eyes met mine, I expected him to
talk. He didn't. I did the talking. Is this how you
do from where you come from, huh? I threw into
his face. Is this how you will connive with staff
to jump over the queue when at the Barclays
Bank in London or the Royal Bank in Edinburgh
or Dime Savings Bank of New York? Ha, we don't
do like that here in Nigeria o. We follow due-
process. Mafi bredi komi lomi obe je, ogbeni
oyinbo! L'Eko Ile? Oma to sori queue yen ni se.
He folded his arms and looked on imperiously.
At this point, the bank top officials had gathered
around. There were attempts to 'rescue' the
whiteman to their office upstairs. I halted it. The
moment I noticed, I told them that if they go
attend to the whiteman upstairs, I will tell
everyone on the queue to march upstairs, too.
And then, they resorted to begging. And even the
woman whose fight I had taken ownership of
started to beg me. Otito Baba Oko mi, she
pleaded. No, oyinbo MUST join the queue! Their
pleading fuelled my anger. What is that?
These things that come with neo-imperialism
sha. I've also heard about how whitemen smoke
in places marked No Smoking at the Nigerian
airport, and they go, without being penalised as
would Nigerian offenders.[/b]

@ OP

You made a big fool of yourself yet you think you are defending your right but done in a very primitive way. After all the BS display the bank will still attend to the white man. It is the system you have to blame not the white man.

Priority are given to foreigners in a situation like that sometimes, most especially, expatriates. For example, in a foreign country your country ambassador would be attended to first before the locals in some situation. But you took the bait and behave like uneducated person and the people are complimenting you for your silliness. You just show that you are a barbarian!

Re: BVN : A Friend's Hilarious Experience At GT Bank With A White Man by Truckpusher(m): 3:49am On Jul 02, 2015
I had a similar experience with a Yoruba man and a white man in Port Harcourt airport - I brought them to their knees after they trampled on the pride of a beautiful Nigerian woman who I can categorically say that she's rich and educated from her spoken grammar and dressing but she never wanted to raise any dust when she was bullied out of her position by a fellow Nigerian. I ordered the white man back to the queue while the Yoruba man that accompanied him that was showing everyone on that queue an attitude resorted to begging me to calm down when he noticed that he is not dealing with just a Nigerian that could be intimidated and with this look on his face as if to say 'You wan pursue me for work o' grin ,in fact I was ready to be arrested that day but the security men behaved as if they didn't notice the fracas that was brewing up and that alone gave me the mindset that thye really liked what I was doing to the disrespectful slave and his master and it got to a point that the woman that was trampled upon, said to me ' my son ,leave them alone but I refused to give up until the two iidiots respected themselves and joined the line.

To cut a long story short ,at the departure lounge where we finally sat side by side the white man engaged me in convo and we talked and I even got to find out that he is a Croat ,imagine a fuccking Croat that belongs to the backyard of European domination of the world feeling fly in Nigeria just because he has a black monkey that was more than willing to connive with him to oppress his own people for an ordinary queue.

Some Nigerians deserve to be beaten with a sledge hammer on the head for their absolute show of shame when dealing with a white man in Nigerian soil especially if fellow Nigerians are involved.

Next time anyone come across such barefaced degradation of your own people, respectfully speak up but firmly and stand your ground. The heavens won't fall.

Bush man
As a foreigner go and jump the queue in London for a bus. If the bank decided to prioritize certain important customers that's understandable. Every business has its backbone clients. But it should have nothing to do with race and it shld not be done openly in the banking hall, disrespectful of those in the queue. Finally, those who are rushing to register now, what d fuuuukkk is ur problem? Banks have literally being begging ppl to register since January.

Show me where in the western countries a black man will be taken to the front of a queue of white folks in a bank or any institution.
