booqee: @op. I love nigerians cos they're funny, lively, rugged,.even in bitter situation, they'll still find something amusing to lift ur spirit. Infact no dull moment in dis country..both east west or north. I just don't know why..i just love d people of this country

I don't doubt it. grin

I have never been to Nigeria. I just know a few Nigerians in person and have been on here for a while, but by experiencing the bit of Nigerian culture that I have, I know that comedy is a big part of the Nigerian culture. grin And that is a good thing. Because despite what goes on and corruption, the people always find some way to entertain or be entertained and that's top of the line resilience!! smiley

P Beni: What amuses most about Nigerians is our sense of humour. A Nigerian has the ability to send you rolling on the floor laughing even when they're trying to be serious.

lol that's exactly what i said on the first page! grin
and its soo true! i think Nigerians are even funnier when they are serious.

dont get me wrong i dont take you all as a joke or anything, i can't explain it. grin
the same has been said about my people (jamaicans) which may be true, but its definitely
a fact in the case of nigerians. i think your sense of humor is far better than those in the west who cry/complain about EVERYTHING.

It's a shame when you can get sued for cracking a joke.. tongue

This is the most amazing attitude I have noticed. My elder sister who is getting married in two weeks time told me she was expecting loan by month end to fund the wedding. I advised her to wait till month end in other to foot the bill, but surprisingly she insisted on throwing it big hoping that the relatives would come to her rescue. I just tire for this naija attitude o!

mr_man: The fact that Nigerians only ask questions when they are fighting.
For example: man A steps on man B
Man B: are u blind?
Man A: wetin dey worry u?
Man B: U no see say u match pesin?
Man A: u dey mad? Why u come dey shout?
Man B: na who dey mad? U dey craze?
Man A: do u knw who i am?
Man B: who are u?
Random guy comes in to break up the fight and asks, wetin happen nah?
Man A/B:u dey mind dis yeye man?
Lol.never a dull moment n 9ja and mairaland.
