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

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

8. The World's fastest supercomputer was designed by a world renowned inventor and

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 #CelebrateYourNi
gerianness !
NIGERIA: GREAT NATION, GOOD PEOPLE!!!!
If you truly believe, kindly add anything else
