I have traveled to almost 15 Countries and discovered that Nigerian are more united outside our shores than in Nigeria.

My experience:

The first time I arrived at JFK Airport, I met few Nigerians who became friends with me there and also, they helped me with choosing a good place to hang out and feel more at home. (That was when I visited my Uncle during the summer holiday in 2014).

I met few Nigerians in Ghana and they associate together and always protect their interest first. I was saved from being arrested one Night afrer a Nigerian guy told the police that I was his brother. He was well connected in Ghana. (That Night, I thought I saw an Angel because I would have been having my a** up in the cell)

I got a part time Job in UK in 2015 by the help of a Nigerian I met on the Bus. We just exchanged pleasantries and introduced my self as a Nigerian.

The story goes on and on, Even Benin Republic and South Africa I have met good Nigerians.

The reason why I travel a lot is because I have a lot of family members who do summer outside Nigeria like crazy.

I am planning to hit Austria this summer. So I expect to meet good Nigerians.

Have you ever traveled outside Nigeria? Read...... I was returning from having fun. I dont like SA either because I dont see the country better for fun apart for Animal site seeing which I am not ready for. I would visit Calabar instead of SA.

Just shut up.If you have no respect and love for one another because of tribal differences,you're racist.Charity begins at home they say,if there's no love lost between the tribes,how can they even get on well with the world at large.This self hate stinks.You're not better than those you mentioned.

There are Nigerian scammers as well as there are also criminals of varying nationalities.It is not a Nigerian thing.The sooner you realise this,the better for you.

Madame I ain't talking about nationalities committing crimes. U may be unlucky to meet a Nigerian with bad intentions when u leave the shores of the country

Lol
No hard feelings

Op you are right am in Ghana at the moment with my family.

We see ourselves as Nigerians first before igbo, Yoruba or Hausa

I think politicians have devide us so much in Nigeria

But the irony of it is in the midst of politicians they see themselves as Nigerians first.

NCANpatroller:

You are right. There are 95/5 percent of meeting good Nigerian (95 for good, 5 for bad)

NCANpatroller:

Thanks man. No hating. One love!!!!!!!

Yeah,there are some crooked Nigerians but every country has its own fair share of criminals.Nigerians can be really nice people.

Same expreience everywhere I go. Immediately at the mention of Naija, you are hailed and embraced with no hate. Even if you meet the bad ones, you are neither their target since they know you are one of theirs. The feeling of being a Nigerian is "Great outside Nigeria"

TGoddess:

Our population makes us less crooked. Imagine a country of 180 million people (that is about quarter the population of Africa is correct Census is done) and have little or no criminal outside the shores of this country. Isnt that amazing?

It comes down to who you can relate to best if you migrate to another country. If you go to a new place you don know much people but you know that there are Nigerians somewhere, you might naturally gravitate towards that area. Plus you will find out the places to buy and eat Nigerian foods from them. It is out of convenience not out of love for each other.

Most Nigerians in diaspora are honest hardworking people.

Define the term unity and progress

how many fulani have you seen outside nigeria?

Best observation.

I heard someone Mention Nnamdi Kanu. I guess when he stayed in Uk, he survived by the help of Nigerians. They should ask him. Its just that if you read history, Uwazurike used politics to corrupt his mind and finally he went astray (But even if he still returns to Uk, I believe he will make peace and be laughed at by Nigerians since that is our true nature of love during hard times)

tit:

My man, my best friend is Fulani and he has been lobbying from his parent to let me visit him in UK again since Am the one always having be heart to reachout to other Nigerians. Fulani's are shy people in Nature and they are in every country and at every continent you visit apart from Antarctica. They existed long before any tribe in Nigeria.

They are good people. In my stay in the North, the Fulani made good number of people. I drank a hell lot of fura de nunu and ate a lot of cheap suya and related well.

Like someone said, the politicians are the problem

What?

May be because there is No tribe or religion difference involved, we go there as Nigerians and Nigerians alone
