Why did u bolden just 'equal' and ignore the 'at least' that preceded it?

'More' means 'greater than', at least means 'greater than or equal to'.
It's no contradiction. The statement 'at least equal, if not fairer' is just to introduce some mildness. In no way does it contradict my earlier categorical opinion that NL is not harsh at all on foreigners.
Still contradicting.
Do you know what equality means?

No no, there's no mildness.

Anywaz, the thought that some Nigerians still respect others based on their international status is just absolutely mind boggling.

that was before naa. But even now it still happens especially when i tried to advice or give my opinion, people tells me to go back to my ching chong yam pao pao side. . . When someone says this, its the same like others referring African peeps as Nigger and its not a good word at all.

Back in the 10th grade I had a Chinese Teacher for English.I used to scream out Ching Chang Cho.I swear to God I never knew that was a racist word.One time she pulled me aside and told me to stop it.

it is discriminating but at times, we dont know.

Like when I was in Primary school, u know. . . Whenever someone wanted to mock another person, they will say this : I hope you get married to an African!

And everyone in the class would laughed.

I did not find it funny at all and I never understood what was the joke about but then after that when I asked, they said they use that as a mocking phrase and the other person getting this mock will usually get offended.

So I think that people are just not aware.

I have never been treated harshly. But there was a day I asked Nlanders what koboko means because everyone was mentioning the word; then I was told to go to Victoria Island and ask D'Banj.
Whatever that meant I had no idea but it sounded funny. . . grin grin grin
