The phrase 'be like' is a lazy way of constructing sentences. lt is good to use the appropriate verbs while constructing our sebtences to make them more meaningful. Sentence such as "Nigerians be like..." is quite annoying but writing something such as "Nigerians reactions is like" is better and not hard to write.

Decryptor: 13. Nigerians change the power switch before switching on their gen sets which makes the power go straight to their appliances once the gen comes on and when that damages their appliances or the gen set itself, they begin to blame the witches in their village.

14. Nigerians are the only ones who press "eject" while trying to stop a disc playing on their DVD set rather than pressing "stop" then safely ejecting it.

15. Nigerians are the only ones who while talking to someone over the phone with a handset and the other person is not hearing them properly, they resort to speaking directly to the earpiece of the phone INSTEAD of the mouthpiece. undecided

More to come....

severee: Fela sef talk am say "if you suffer for world na your fault be that” cheesy observe the mentality of a Nigerian

1. When a Nigerian buys a newspaper he goes through the first few pages which cover terrorist attacks,political mayhem and poverty but when he gets to the IPOs and business ads he rips the paper up and wipe his a*ss with it

2. Nigerians use their upfront salary to buy a car ,rent an expensive flat and get married then when money finish, they go Nigerian standard of living sucks

3. When it comes to mingling in Nigeria Yorubas hate igbos ,igbos hate yorubas while Hausas hate them both then later they give the suffer head speech to succeed in Nigeria its who you knowi

4. Nigerians prefer to rent a house while building another house rather buying a house on mortgage while building another then they wonder why real properties belong only to rich people

5. Nigerians be like I can only take nollywood seriously when their movies start becoming more creative and competitive then half of a yellow sun and October 1st come out and then Nigerians be like mtchew I go come watch Nigerian film for cinema when alaba dey there

6. Nigerians be like Nigerians consume more than they produce Nigeria cant move forward if we import more than we produce then MINDA phones come out and d’banj brings out koko garri and Nigerians be like yeah right like I will risk MINDA phone exploding in my ear and d’banj dey sell garri when e mates dey win grammy

7. Nigerians be like security in the country is very poor what is government doing bla bla but when security announcements or programmes are on tv they be like f*ck this sh*t I’m watching a telemundo

8.Nigerians grumble about how we suck at soccer but then when NPL is on Nigerians be like mtchew EPL wannabe I don’t watch such

9. Nigerians be like I’m tired of the hardship in this country and the solution is to forge account papers and travel papers ,get out of the country then go assume a dead persons identity or contract a bride to fool authorities into granting me citizenship,after all that they begin to wonder why the nation is so corrupt

10. Nigerians be like 70% of Nigerians live in poverty and deprivation how many people can boast of eating three square meals then NGOs/charity organizations come up and Nigerians be like tongue SCAM!

11. Nigerians complain of how dirty and disgusting Nigerian environment looks then they slam dunk a plastic bottle in the middle of the road then take a piss in a nearby gutter and sleep during sanitation days

12. World bank calls Nigerian economy the largest in Africa and Nigerians be like mtchew largest economy where the people survive on less than $5 a day bla bla then they wonder why foreigners(who took advantage of the opportunity) boss them around in their own country

Moral of the story: do your part and appreciate progress even though as you say they are mediocre, sometimes in life it’s the little things that pack the biggest punch.

Happy independence day

105% 105%...Good thought....

Re: Funny Things Only Nigerians Do by lechiffre: 11:59pm On Sep 30, 2014
Honestly I don’t think corruption is nigeria’s problem America is the most corrupt developed nation yet e no dey show for body china is even worse its glaring you don’t even need to be in the country to know that it’s been run by one man and his family yet e no dey show for china man body it is not because of bad leadership afterall America survived a fine list of bad administrations and mistakes, its not becos we are superstitious/ religious afterall Saudi Arabia is a more religious nation and of course you know the way they are, the only plausible explanation as to why Nigeria isn’t developed is because Nigerians are careless, lazy and ignorant IMO so the op is on point here
