3 places Nigerians are humble; 1. Before a soldier 2. In church during holy communion 3. Overseas (or Embassy) for fear of deportation. A pure naija dude can package to survive and keep up the package when he is living OK abroad. My uncle is a big guy in Canada, his cousins working tooth and nail in his naija company are earning 17k a month while he gives bountifully freely to charity in North America, las las, na to get more from whitey. |

Even bubonic plague if diluted in the worlds oceans cannot kill a fly. It is a matter of numbers. The point is about proportions. The fact that bad news is more prevalent is because there are far more people doing bad things. That is the worry....the numbers. In my small world of business and enterprise I have come across exceptional individuals with great talent, work ethic and rock solid integrity but why do I find myself overtly defensive, consistently wary and faithless....the numbers. |

Because we are used to way worse conditions that opportunity is not something we let go easily. Doesn’t mean they should use us to try and paint African Americans bad. A person who doesn’t even have electricity will be overjoyed to live in a place where such things are taken for granted 2 Likes |

Well.. they should carry on working their blaady! Asses off! and pay huge taxes to fund the American welfare system. Nigerians are working while Americans are sitting on their lazy Asses Smoking weed, Drinking and having welfare babies. And some say it's possitive? bullsheet!! The Arabs, chinese and Asians sure do not work their Asses off! but they are more successfull that Nigerians in America. If you call Janitors, Street sweepers/gabbage collectors, security Guards and kitchen porters Successfull then you need your brains tested. 1 Like |

Yeah right. A generation or two later in America and the Nigerian immigrant that are so driven will be in the same category as the African America and that is so oppressed by the system. F**ked up, victimized and criminalized.At the end in U. S, black is black. Only Nigerians in Nigeria can beleive this lie that Nigerians are the most successful immigrant group in U. S. Anyone who has been in America long enough knows that it is the Indians or the Chinese. Separating the achievements of African Americans from Africans is divide and conquer. Without the Civil rights movement, we never even allowed to come here in the first place. 2 Likes |

The reasons Nigerian immigrants do better than black Americans is a simple matter of self-selection. The most driven, most educated, comparatively affluent Nigerians are the ones who tend to travel abroad either on student or work visas. They've invested their futures in their emigration and must then summon up the pluck and drive to make it work. Immigrant groups always have that pluck and drive. That is not what the general Nigerian population is like - else, Nigeria wouldn't be a shiithole competing with the likes of Somalia and South Sudan for the most wretched country on earth. Don't allow yourself be used as a pawn to undermine black Americans. Their struggles in the US fighting for equal rights paved the way for black immigrants to enjoy the fruits of this struggle. Candace Owens is a vacuous mooron who will say anything her right-wing paymasters want her to. 7 Likes |

And no, Nigerian-Americans are not the most successful immigrant group. Not even close really. It's a weird myth and I don't know its genesis. Go to Silicon Valley or Wall Street or Big Pharma or wherever and it is Asian Americans from India, China, Korea etc at the cutting edge of innovation and enterprise. 4 Likes |

To be candid tho as fvcked as India is as a country and their brutish and savage men I think they have some of the most intelligent and smartest people on planet earth and for the Chinese it’s even obvious cos they’re very innovative tech construction or engineering business they’re up there I think they’re closely followed by the japs and Koreans but one can’t say blacks or African Americans which at the top chart as Nigerians is far off tho cos we excel in more fields or areas than they do from Arts to entertainment,education medicine and Tech and business we have Nigerians and other Africans doing great things if you ask me |

Infinityk:The kind of achievement they are talking about here is not just achievement. It’s career driven achievement in the US backed up with college degree. I think Chinese in the US don’t have that comparing (relatively) their larger population to Nigerian smaller population . Chinese success is success from entrepreneurship/business. But to digress. In my own personal experience in the US as a Nigerian, I see east India’s living American dream than Nigerian. I see them owing luxurious homes in exotic neighborhoods than Nigerians. I went to a Nigerian friend’s graduation party last weekend. She just got her PhD in nursing. Doctor of nursing. That’s the kind of Nigerians they are talking about. 1 Like |

Ugosample:Who said anything about "expecting" fairness? Nah, you fight to the death for it! If you are weak, you will be eaten upThis is a dangerous and demonstrably false mindset. Strong people can fight for and have given their lives to protect weak people. Arabs raided Europe for centuriesWhat are you on about, and what has this got to do with the plight of Black Americans? i get your point,,as you are looking at it from a moral angle.What do you think I am doing when I call attention to the often ignored historical context through which the present situation of black Americans can be viewed? Igbos were ruined by Nigeria in the late 60s and early 70sPlease educate me. How have most Igbos picked themselves up? What is the population of Igbos in Nigeria and what percentage of those are doing well economically? Don't be fooled by idiotic feel-good drivel promoted by the elite to distract you from the stark reality of your situation. You will hear silly things like: "Igbos are the most successful businessmen", "Yorubas are the most educated ethnic group", "Hausas are the most honest people", and similar crap. The truth is that there are only two tribes in Nigeria today, and you will know them by their economic situation: The proletariat who do all the work for crumbs, and the bourgeoisie, who exploit all these fake ethnic and religious divisions to keep the proletariat poor and desperate enough to work for crumbs. Wake up and know who your real enemies are, comrade! 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Surprised you people fell for the divide and conquer tactics, same whites that will go to another forum and make ebola jokes about Africans. They just like to pay fake compliments to Africans to Undermine Black Americans, at the end of the day they don't like blacks period whether from Africa or native born. 1 Like |
