It's very simple.

OP has never seen a Chinese, Lebanese or Pakistani born in Nigeria-citizen who speaks exactly like an Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa man/woman. OP wonders if they exist because in all his trips to the UK, America, France and Switzerland he has come across those races born and also some who came to study but learned to speak like indigenes.

OP wonders if they exist or they are mostly ashamed to call themselves Nigerians.

I remember being shocked at seeing black Saudi Arabians playing for and some supporting their national team. If Saudi Arabia, the most conservative Middle Eastern country, has negro citizens then I don't see why Nigeria won't have even a handful of full caucasian citizens.

because success has many fathers, but failure is an orphan. For now, Nigeria is an eyesore to behold. Notwithstand, there white Nigerians. Bt I cnt vouch for their proficiency in our local languages.

Some of the whites dt are nw naturalized in Nigeria are crooks from Europe and Americas seeking haven.

In Abuja there is a Chinese community which comprises of Thai, Chinese, Phillipines and Malaysian nationals.
I guess since Chinese are the majority both in the community and globally the gathering picked them as the official flag bearers.
If their children bear the nationality 'Nigerian' is what baffles me.

Yeah, many Nigerians for 100s of years that went on hajj settled there. There's Al Hausawi and Al Barnawi tribe there, that's Hausa and Kanuri people. We also have Yorubas who've settled there for more than 60 years.
