Nigeria has a very bad reputation… a really bad one. The media isn’t helping matters. They spread all the bad things about the country. Reading different news across the internet, one would almost think there is nothing good in Nigeria. But there are. What good things can you say about Nigeria:

Answer: As a North American who has spent over a decade in Nigeria, I realized I should state this publicly more often because I think it most every day: Nigeria is f***king amazing. Nowhere else can one test the boundaries of what is possible better than in this country.

What would be considered national emergencies elsewhere barely register in Nigeria. The so-called rules of the financial markets are ignored, twisted and shattered here but people continue on with grace and joy. Electricity goes off randomly multiple times a day yet people's energy is constantly high. Imagine what your life would be like without electricity for one week, and know most Nigerians have been without it for weeks at a time since they were born. Terrorist attacks on the scale of 9/11 have happened every year for the past 7 years. Still this remains a nation where people will smile, engage and offer assistance more often than not. If any peoples are ready to survive the end times, it is those who were raised in Nigeria.

Every large city has traffic, but in many Nigerian cities a hold-up transitions into a shopping mall. Delicious popcorn, questionable mousetraps, Suzanne Summers thighmasters, real puppies... Where else can you be cursing under your breath in a traffic jam and a random stranger brings you a PUPPY?

Sick of reading long rants about how persecuted your great-uncle is or what a terrible restaurant some random acquaintance went to? Strangely in a country where people have every reason to complain, there is very little of it, especially wrt trivial matters. Why? My theory is most Nigerians generally do not have time for such nonsense, and complainers are not entertained even by their own mothers. Most Nigerians I have met learn early to put up or shut up. Do you have any idea how refreshing this is coming from a culture where cynicism is treated somewhere between an aspiring profession and a god given right?

To be honest, sometimes I think that Nigeria is this fantastic secret carefully guarded by Niger Delta militants, Boko Haram terrorists and internet scammers. But I also realize this would ignore the massive endemic issues that make life a magnitude harder for most people here. I realize that as a relativity rich white person, I get treated better and have a different experience than many. I realize this experience is not everybody's cup of tea. But for those who can see past the problems to the opportunities, there is not really a better place to be than Nigeria.

the Nigerians are creative..

Can you see?

Let's think. If it's bad news about Nigeria, the thread would be put to the front page and a lot of people would start commenting. Even if it's not pushed to the front page, some people would still comment.

When a foreigner says something bad about Nigeria, we react negatively, and we ourselves don't have anything good to say about the country. When a foreigner says good things about us, we ignore it.

It's a pity.

What good have nigerians said about dem self

Nigeria is truly an epitome of the "Sleeping Giant"!
I pray she wakes up in my lifetime.
Nigeria is arguably the most gifted nation on earth in terms of its potential, both materially and otherwise.
The teething problem she has was foisted on the nation, with the collusion of some foreign powers, by we Nigerians.
No one is asleep forever except in death. This nation hasn't given up the ghost so the earlier she rises up to the morning sun, the sooner will it's glow radiate to the ends of the earth.
Now is the time to awaken the Sleeping Giant.

Let me think....




Oh I've got one



Nigerians are good at having patience with a lazy government, and fighting an active one

Foolish Oyibo man. If the Zoo is so good, may your country become like the Zoo very soon. Amen.
