It is a friendly and happy place

- The hospitality

- *Generally speaking*, the extended family - there is always someone out there related to you willing to help in times of need

- The mere fact that Nigeria, despite its shortcomings, has witnessed 2 successive elections with a coup, is in and of itself positive too.

Any thing of Substance? Like say,

Good Economy?
Low Unemployment?
Security?
Good Jobs?
Cost of Living?
Good Government?
Good Healthcare system?
Business friendly?

I think Nigeria has potential, and i think we have forward looking people. I am not sure why we are not there yet.
But in any case i will join the choir and say we have good family ties, good culture, not sure of the weather, but good food,friendly people ETC

Nigerians are the most hospitibel people in Africa.

They do not discriminate other Africans as far as communion is concerned.

Can't say much for other African's though

Nigeria is really a great place. When a person comes to nigeria may be from India, Canada or Usa for the first time, There is a connection which happens here. That has to do with9 ja people,the pidgeon english and food etc, You cannot find these else where. People ask me how'z Lagos i tell them Lagos is Lagos no words to describe it thats the speciality. As i travelled most of Nigeria to explore the place i fell in love with the northern side of Nigeria. Hey but only after Lagos. People are so cool and friendly, Very peaceful environment and very religious. NIgeria is a place where u give respect and you get respect in return.

Re: Positive Things About Nigeria by garfields(m): 3:10pm On May 17, 2009
@Nignog
If u are willing to sell yours first, anti-Nigeria!If you will go outside please also deny Nigeria ok, And befor you know what you are doing you will be denying your family name when you must have been done with your state,LGA,Your village etc. Hope you will be prepared to go through that stress. But to simply say a positive thing your negative mind is decieving you .

I just hope that you are not in that shoes for long cos that place you will be runing to will surely reject you cos they are not your own.

Its and advice though please take it serious and think about it ok.
catch ya!

Our people. Not the 1110% bad eggs giving us a bad name around the world, but the 90% hard working, honest and proud people who are not materially rich but struggle everyday to give their children a better life despite the evil machinations of our corrupt rulers. They are the ones who make me proud to be Nigerian. Also love our diverse cultures, food, parties and music especially Afrobeat . Nothing beats chilling in a beer parlour with friends sipping on big stout and eating asun and suya while Abami dey play for background. grin

1. Always Millions in Nigerian Banks waiting to be claimed.
2. Fraudsters using the name of the Lord to operate 419 fraud.
3. Lots of deaths on the roads 0n 21st April ( take the donkey day I`d say)
4. Good quality rubbish, old tyres, dead animals left around rotting for some else to clear up.Its our job to complain
about it , not to look after our own hoods,betta live in da slum.
5. Flies big enough to carry off a small child.
6. We can buy big car and cell phones as others will feed da children for us.

Im glad I left , I tried very hard to think of sumthing nice to say about it but couldnt.Thats why
cleava nigerians live in USA or Euroland innit? Leave slum and make new one somewhere else?
