Country where most PhD holders are dunce.
After pushing themselves through school with excess funds and plagiarized works they start feeling like demigods. I hate it here.

I see that a lot of people take pride in addressing or introducing themselves using their job titles, for example like Pharmacist John, Nurse Grace, Builder Idris, Architect Biodun, Barrister Okoye etc, instead of just Mr. X or Mrs. Y. The most annoying is the ubiquitous title Engr. used by every tom, dick and harry who knows just a little about a certain technical vocation.

When I compare this to what obtains abroad (Europe and America) I notice that the only common job titles in use over there are Dr. and Prof. I've seen a full American professor address himself simply as Dr. (something that will never happen in Nigeria). And they are supposed to have more technical know-how than us, right? Yet they don't flaunt their job titles. So why is our own different?

Nigerians believe in first impression

We are easily carried away by titles

That's why I rarely do business with anyone that introduces himself as a pastor

Once you say you are a pastor, it's a red flag, they think that people would trust them once they present as clergy

Most annoying one is a one term senator from the second republic who still retains the title Senator .

But more annoying is how governors and the president are addressed as your excellency.

If you go to the spiritual field you have them addressing themselves as pastors, prophet/prophetess, Reverend, bishop, and the yeye GO title .

Mayeldah:
That one self good, the way pastors are attaching PHD and Archbishop this to Bishop that to their name you will wonder

person go open church, in two years he will call himself Bishop or just becasue you went for a two weeks training program in Homiletics you go dey brandish PHD upandan.

Nigerians like title and show offs.

Franzinni:
Becasue nigérians assume alot and if you dont put it smack dab in the middle of thier forehead, they might end up assuming another thing. Anyway this is my tech software what do you think

I used to have a boss back then, Kola Shogbamu, he'd call me on the phone and go "Hello Chijioke, this is Mr. Shogbamu" Dumb, idiot mothafuckêr.

Or the bitch of a supervisor I had who would call and say "This is Madam Enobong"

That's nizooria for you.
