It could be a mind set,You might always think you won't get on with them because they are not Nigerian.Out of 50+ countries in Africa and not even one that you have had a connection with??.
You must only be coming across the laid back ones,There is some LOUD,tough Africans out there that are not Nigerian lol

You got urself to blame.Whenever you have problems interacting with people from diverse cultures look within you and therein lies the problem.
You could be too proud or a show off. The loud part I agree. I am yet to meet a nigerian who doesn't shout.And I mean it.
Most Africans are kind and welcoming so check out yourself.

Seen no evidence of it on here but they say people online can be different from their real person. Sounds exhausting.

Anyway, i usually don't get along with my fellow Nigerians. Too different in ideas, thoughts, manner and character.
Funny enough i get along with other Africans.

Being loud is quite irritating. But everyone has their own usefulness. cheesy

This is how people are suppose to be. No offense to you but being loud and blunt can be annoying to majority of people, maybe that's why they don't get you. Nigerians are very loud and obnoxious group so such behavior would not affect a Nigerian. I will not advise you to change yourself but acting less Nigerian might help.
