I'll say it now, and I don't care what YOU have to say,
I'm not building excuses for our country, but I will tell you this. It takes time, patience, hardwork and prayers for any country to be great.Your entitled to your opinion and I'm entitled to mine and that's that.

why not? i enjoy being nigerian. in america, people who meet me want to confirm what they've heard about nigerians. they want to know, is he really intelligent, good in bed, aggressive, fraudulent? this gives me d chance to play with their minds. i really enjoy it.

hunnie! This is something that gets on my nerve every day!

I just wish i can record my voice and paste it on here right now!

I fxcking hate people[nigerians], that say.. they ain't nigerian because

1. I was born in amaerica, jamaica, london....
2. My dad is nigerian, but my mom is american.. so i choose american
3. The stupidiest one is, i left nigeria when i was 7, now i am 16.. i don't know anything about nigeria, i am a "resident alien".. so i am american. ARGHHHHH.. PUH--LEASE KILL ME!!!!

You know what, talking about this issue makes me want to bite myself. I HATE people like this.

You can tell from all angle that they are nigerian, and they start talking about they ain't nigerian. I walked up to an asshole of a girl, knew she was nigerian.. and she started to cook up the i was born in america sh!T. I was like.. but your parents r nigerian right? She was like yeah.. and we lived there for 8 years. I was like... okay?? U r nigerian... she said, ermm.. NO.

You know what, i ain't mad at people like this when they sumtims do that.. but the most annoying part is when they Say it as if, being a Nigerian is an insult to humanity! They say it as if... OHH HELL NO!, I am so not nigerian.
And when the god forsaken oyinbo man starts to talk bad about africa, they be talking as if we live with lions and sh!t. I mean come on now!!! Come on!! I always get mad like a lion when i am in class and a disccusion like that comes up. I'll defend the whole of africa with my last saliva.. till i make it known to them that! We ain't what they think we are. Although we have comma.

Back to the topic now. I am proud to be nigerian, african or watever. The whole i am an american citizen sh!t don't mean i am not originally from Nigeria. People need to stop that sh!t and be real.




My exact sentiments! No need to bother about people like that cos they won't be of any use to Nigeria anyway, we're over 120 million, we need to reduce the population, anyone that wants to claim yankee, londoner or Italo can go right ahead.
