You may already know that Nigeria is the
largest black nation in the world and the
most populous nation in Africa.
You may already know that Nigeria has
great dependency on crude oil, plus all the
other opinions of David Cameron. Here are
20 unpopular facts about Nigeria.

1. Are you aware that all over the world
Nigerians are setting the pace and
becoming the standard by which others
measure themselves? Do you know??

2. In the US, Nigerians are the most
educated immigrant community. Type it
into Google and you’ll see it. Not one of
the most educated, the most educated.

3. 60% of Nigerians in the US have college
degrees. This is far above the American
national average of 30%.

4. Nigerians in US are one of the highest
earners, typically earning 25% more than
the median US income of $53k.

5. In Ivy League schools in Europe and
America, Nigerians routinely outperform
their peers from other nations.

6. A Nigerian family, The Imafidon family,
have officially been named the smartest
family in the UK.

7. The designer of the famous car,
Chevrolet Volt, Jelani Aliyu, is a super
talented Nigerian from Sokoto State.

8. The World’s fastest supercomputer was
designed by a world renowned inventor
and scientist, Philip Emeagwali, a full-blown
Nigerian whose patency was awarded in
2015. This means Nigeria has the patency
to the world’s fastest computer: a Black
Nigerian.

9. The wealthiest Black man and woman on
earth are Nigerians, Aliko Dangote and Mrs.
Folorunsho Alakija. Both have no trace of
criminal record of any kind.

10. South Africa couldn’t have ended
apartheid & achieved Black rule if not for
the leadership role Nigeria played.

11. Of the 3 South African Presidents who
ruled after apartheid, two of them once
lived in Nigeria under asylum. Both Nelson
Mandela (60s) and Thabo Mbeki (70s) lived
in Nigeria before becoming President of
South Africa. We gave financial support,
human support, boycotted an Olympics
and our politicians, musicians and activists
campaigned relentlessly.

12. Nigeria spent over $3 Billion and lost
hundreds of soldiers to end the wars in
both Liberia and Sierra Leone which the
world ignored because they have no oil.

13. When there was a coup in São Tomé
and Príncipe in 2003, Nigeria restored the
elected President back to power.

14. Before there were street lights in
European cities, ancient Benin kingdom
had street lights fueled by palm oil.

15. 500 years ago, Benin casted metal
alloys to create magnificent art including
the world famous Queen Ida Mask.

16. Amina was a warrior queen who ruled
Zaria Emirate in Kaduna state,
Northwestern Nigeria 400 years ago in
1610. Google and see what she means to
Africa.

17. We gave monetary gifts to Ireland
during our oil boom and built a statue for
France free of charge. We are not poor
blacks. Nigeria is rich and don’t be lied to.
18. The first television station in Africa was
NTA Ibadan (1960) long before Ireland has
their RTE station.
=========
Wherever you look in this great country,
Nigeria, heroes abound both now and in
our recent and ancient past.
If all you do is listen to mainstream
Western media, you’ll not get the full
picture of your Nigerian heritage.
Do not listen to any leader who says
Nigerians are criminals, no matter who he
is, or his height and position.
We’re not a nation of scammers, drugs &
corruption, but a people with a verifiable
track record of greatness.
==========
Here is what CNN, BBC, Aljezeera and
western media will not tell you about
Nigerians:

19. On the 7th May, 2016 at Howard
University in Washington D.C history was
made. Out of 96 graduating Doctor of
Pharmacy candidates, 43 of them were
Nigerians and out of 27 awards given, 16
went to Nigerians.
They will only tell you how Nigerians are
scammers and cheats, how Nigerians are
into drugs overseas et al.
If you don’t blow your trumpet, no one will
blow it for you. VIVA NAIJA!!!

20. There are over 180,000,000 Nigerians
world over and only less than 250,000 of
this figure have traceable criminal records.
This is about 0.14% of our entire national
population in the last 20 years: nothing
close to 1%. Shame on global media.
Listen Nigeria, dont let anybody woo you
into believing that you are a criminal just
because you are a Nigerian. Nigerians are
NOT criminals. You are NOT a criminal. You
are topnotch; second to none around the
world. Be proud of Nigeria wherever you
go. Take out your Passport with pride. Be
proud of our GREEN HERITAGE. Be
enthusiastic of our FUTURE GREATNESS
# CelebrateYourNigerianness !
NIGERIA: GREAT NATION, GOOD PEOPLE!!!!
If you truly believe, kindly add anything
else that you remember about Nigerians
and the greatness of Nigeria that wasn’t
listed above
