Nigerian Men Aren't Romantic.... PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 by achukwunet(f): 4:55pm On Oct 23, 2012
The perfect Nigerian woman:
she must be beautiful and flawless, while they on the other hand never take care of themselves (physically speaking) and never show the slightest ounce of romance.


In just about every song you hear, Nigeria men have a smooth way to talk about their sweeties.

1) D'banj- "My sweet Potato"
2) Flavour Nabania- "My Jollof Rice" "My Tomato Juice"
3) Wizboy- "My Fotojenik", "Screen Saver"



*And a couple others....


-The tomato in my rice
-The only fish in my aquarium
-The sugar in my tea
-You are the only sugar in my tea, the only cockroach in my cupboard.
-I love you, oya talk your own
-I want to know you berra sweetie
-I want to harvest you
-It seems like I have seen you somewhere before
-My pastor said I would meet the woman of my dreams today, praise the lord he is correct.
-Shey you believe in love at first sight abi make I waka pass again?


But then when it comes to reality, they're not romantic! With all the beautiful women we have in Nigeria, our men should be moving heaven and earth to be romantic to make her feel good. I know these are just songs, but someone needs to say that there's nothing romantic about these pickup lines. SO, WHY ARE NIGERIA MEN NOT ROMANTIC? kiss

While I'm sure you wrote this brimming with excitement and passion, you failed with your generalisation.

Nigerian ladies are simply ingr8, Nigerian men are even more romantic than romeo. But if ur man is not romantic, then he must be a nigerian born Ghanian so, check his identity wella.

She can because she does not agree to date the sensible ones. She is a reflection of those she dates

I actually find those lines funny and cute. But then again that's my preference.

I would rather hear Omoge, I love you die in Yemi Blaq's voice than

I love you to death in Brad Pitt's voice.

I don't know, it just gives some sense of originality to it.

Btw, Ije and Idowu went hard on the op sha

Re: Nigerian Men Aren't Romantic.... PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 by Nobody: 6:06pm On Oct 23, 2012
In as much as your post is very insightful and interesting, I would like to ask you this Q: how many Nigerian men have you dated to conclude like that? How many Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba have you dated? Igbo have different ethnic groups, Hausa and Yoruba also. How many of these men from these ethnic groups have u dated? If you can't answer well to this, I will say that your article is pointless and baseless and without proper research about Nigerian men. You need to be sued for defamation of of nigerian men and easily concluding. cheesy
