When this one finds herself in a working society, instead of her to take advantage of it and better her life she's screaming racism. Why don't you come to Nigeria and hand your residency to someone in agege?

Lmaooooo cheesy

The girl just wants attention, Nigerians and many other people of African heritage are achieving great things even in the West, I don't understand her writeup at all.

Racism is real!!! Once in an elevator a british woman asked me where I was from, I replied that "I am a Nigerian"...she then asked if we have "wild animals " roaming about and how I manage with that...if there's a special language I use with the wild animals as she intends to visit Africa with her husband"! I was shocked! I first of all abused her VERY WELL in my dialect, then I smiled and said 'my country is a modern society and you should be literate enough to search the Internet about any country you wish to visit!

Nothing to post here but my response whenever ignorant whites were shocked at my mastery of spoken English:

"Your people colonized my people centuries ago. What else do you expect me to speak?".

Not suprised. As long as races mix, there would always be racism. As urban as london is, i and my friend (half british/half nigerian) experienced racism on a london bus in dagenham by one dirty old grandma. My friend would have knocked her out if not for her age.
Fastforward to canada, some white folks rejected my medical doctor friend from being their family doctor cos he is black. Some nurses look down on him, and try to teach him his job cos they believe nothing good can come out of africa.
I also get the questions occasionaly...where are you originally from? Do you have 5 wives back home in africa?
I love seeing the shock on their face when i tell them my occupation and where i work.
Crazy people grin

Even here in Nigeria there is racism...

If you are the only Non-Yoruba speaking person in your house/compound, you're dead.

Some illiterate being will look you in the face and tell you they ain't giving you the free apartment because you're not Yoruba.


Which racism pass this one?
