I think this infrastructure thing is overhype....
America developed it's infrastructure over 5 decades ago while gulf n China infrastructure is recent...
The later will look new...

Besides, Africans don't relocate because of skyscraper or smooth road....
The main reason behind relocation is better wages n career opportunties as well as respect for personal freedom n basic rights...
And America beats any emerging nation when it comes to this....
Thats why trend of migration remain westernward despite Asian n gulf countries economic rise....
If u need to see modern skyscrapers or high speed rail...
Take a holiday to China or dubai...
That's all....

"Corporate America is notoriously unfriendly when it comes to the hardworking black immigrant."

The bolded statement is what I call fallacy of hasty generalization. When will people learn to stop judging the USA by the action of Trump. I have been working here and my colleagues have always value us Africans for our brilliance and passion for work.

Although she is right about the recent fraud issue coz I am really bothered by the news of the FBI 80 which was on the front page of CNN website when it occurred. The implication is that my colleagues will try to view Nigerians from that angle even if they are not willing to say it.

The scammers are hurting us indirectly, but most especially they are hurting people in Nigeria that are trying to migrate here more. The day I almost regretted being a Nigerian is when one Indian colleague told me in the midst of other colleagues that Nigerians are mostly scammers in Atlanta, he said it immediately I told him I'm from Nigeria, although I defended Nigeria and told him we are not a nation of scammer but the stigma still sticks anytime I remember that day.

stop saying what u dont know. Places like new zealand and australia got higher wages than America. America is overhyped, they hyped themselves. America is not among the top 15 countries to live, countries like denmark, finland, norway, holland, autria, qatar etc are a trillion times better than America. Their standard of living is century ahead of America

I still don’t think it’s wrong. You quoted her point but the only thing u said was wrong with it was the Argumentum ad Populum not the her whole point. But u quoting it felt like u wanted to debunk something more. People say thing in generalization these days but we all know everyone don’t act the same way. Bottom line all all the points she made is true.

Yes bro, I've gotten some of the calls especially claiming they are from IRS and sometimes USCIS. I know the Indians also engage in fraudulent acts but it seems the stereotyping is majorly focused on Africa (Nigeria).

When he said it that Nigerians are scammers, I wanted to engage him by saying Indians are the same but what does that tells about my personality in the front of other colleagues mostly Americans. So I just tried explaining that it was just media misinformation that Nigerians are not fraudulent but I know deep inside me that there is some iota of truth in what he said.

I don't know the solution to all these fraudulent acts by some of my fellow Nigerians, coz it seems it is now cancerous and it has eaten deeply into the fabrics of our core values as a nation and it cuts across both the rich and the poor.

May God help us.

Sadly, not with the dangerously corrupt governments that we have. In the face of this, many will unfortunately still choose to go that route as an easy way out and damn the consequences.

Ok hear you

Please tell us the number of Nigerians making over $80,000.00 yearly at "denmark, finland, norway, holland, autria, qatar "

Iblad0994:


Do you think this kind of crime is to be blamed on government alone? Most times we don't always take responsibility for our actions. These guys are millionaires that scammed several million dollars, they would have been into these crimes for God knows when.

While the government should share in part of the blame, we Nigerians ourselves are a reflection of our bad government. Go to gov't ministries, public agencies, secondary schools (Parent sponsoring exam malpractices for their children), police force, Nepa, legislature, executive, chruches and mosques, e.t.c. The greatest threat to Nigeria is even that people already visualize crime as the norm and if you try to be righteous people will start calling you mumu or stupid.

I don't even know what to say self, may God help us.

India is a rape capital.

Indians are major scammers. Ask Americans how many Indians have tried to scam over the phone. Ask how many have created fake jobs or did fake interviews to get personal info and steal identities.

The majority of Indians abroad have a totally fake resume. They even create fake job posts to steal people's resume. Five Indians probably have more fake credentials than every scammer in Nigeria combined. Indians constantly cheat in school, and they proudly admit to it.

Indians are only desired as workers because they're extremely cheap labor and will kiss white people's backside all day long with no hesitation, and they'll allow whites to abuse them in every way. They're white collar, modern-day slaves.

Africans are hired because of work ethic, real education, creativity, talent, and ambition.

timesup234:
stop writing lies and rubbish here. Registered Nurses are not rich. Americans dont see them as rich people, only brainwashed Nigerians. They are average individuals

Cousin9999:


I'm not saying those places are better for Nigerians, but the reality is that many countries actually have basic wages that keep pace with inflation, high quality public health care, high quality public education, free college, and real modern infrastructure. The US is behind them in many ways.

Cousin9999:


Nurses aren't considered rich in America, but they're not necessarily average. It's one of few professions with such a high starting salary, especially with only 2 years of education. An RN easily hits six figures. I believe there are some nurses who make substantially more because of their specialization. I think the only ones making average pay live in the south (except Florida and maybe Texas), where basically few people have high wages.

GoodFaith:

I hear you
I am saying in general immigrate are better of in USA and now Canada
Canada have grow number of professional immigrate in the last 20 years

Go away, you disgusting Indian.

Cousin9999:


You're Indian. Get your ugly behind out of here with this racist nonsense.

Iblad0994:


I am telling you. We have some sort of generational syndrome of "I don hammer". That explains why we are always trying to outdo our fellow Nigerians by either oppressing them with our wealth or living a loud life to make other people feel worthless.

It is only in Nigeria that you will see people using Iphones and car as a measure of success, you would agree with me that here in USA people don't even care about all those stuffs, the cleaner at my barber shop here is using Iphone 8.

But if a young guy mistakenly buy a car in Nigeria, then the whole neighborhood is in wahala, coz they will keep tormenting the legit guys and living a loud life. Same thing with some adults in both public and private sectors, the use greed to amass huge wealth, scam the company, and start oppressing their fellow colleagues.

We need reorientation from top to bottom or else things might get worse to the extent that other nations will be shutting their door against us.

mysticwarrior:
this is so sad and annoying, people are beginning to advice Nigerians to deny their identity.

shogsman:
I don't understand this craze for USA especially among Nigerians, have some self respect y'all.

Slimpotter:

I've been searching for a comment like yours since, as if you know just too overrated, I wonder why everyone wants to go to US, while there are other countries around the world who don't cage immigrants like they do.
