you see the problem?
You don't need a great IQ to cheat someone else, all you need is to gain whoever you plan to scam trust.

Yes, tons of africans are stupid due to ignorance & illitracy.

But these IQ tests are racist and worthless.

If the Majority of Africans had IQs within the 60s range, we wouldn't have these houses, places like lagos,jburg,malls, the stock exchange, hell we wouldn't know how to use cell phones, fly planes, wear clothes correctly not to talk of drive cars.

Use your goddamn brain OP!

Racists are trying to belittle you by giving you false made-up IQ test scores and you africans dey larimo.



Guys like these are claiming "the superior master race".








Do you think people like these will score high in IQ test scores.

Hell I wonder what Donald Trump's IQ is

White man greatest achievement is to make blackrace look stupid and inferior.

Una say our IQ is low shey?

How Una wan explain how guys they scam Una for Una hard earned money?

Or we should just say 'americans and European are the mumuest being on the planet earth'


Another research that isn't aimed at bring up the true happening in the world.

Measurement of intelligence via IQ tests is to me not an entirely valid way of ascentaining the intellectual capability of an individual. Say you test an individual on his literacy and numeracy, and say he performs abysmally, does that justify...

This one na mumu ranking.... Nigeria is one of the most intelligent black nation in the world...



But maybe na our presido IQ, them take rate the whole naija.

preciousuweh:


My friend you just spoke my mind.
It marvels me how somebody from a low IQ nation like Nigeria as they ranked it will come and tell somebody from a high IQ nation like will come and tell you that he is a prince online and you will fall for it. please can someone tell who has the low IQ.
They ranked Nigeria as a low IQ nation yet the inventor of the fastest computer in the world is a Nigerian.
Those that that did this ranking are joking with their jobs because all this ranking is a whole lot of crap

NO PUN INTENDED

TheLogicalMind:


Defrauding desperate old women of their life savings as yahoo boys do is not a sign of intelligence. It is when people like you vomit nonsense that I know just how hopeless this country is.

jojothegreat:
And we still dey scam those oyibo people everyday. Now who have low IQ?

ignis:

With comments like this, I won't be surprised if Nigeria becomes last on the list.

Measurement of intelligence via IQ tests is to me not an entirely valid way of ascentaining the intellectual capability of an individual. Say you test an individual on his literacy and numeracy, and say he performs abysmally, does that justify calling him stupid just because he doesn't meet your standard of intelligence? What if the individual were to be a musical or artistic genius? We often times fail to realize that intelligence is many-faced. Einstein, clever as he was, was still a blithering ignoramus on many other areas of academic endeavour. It's only in rare cases of men such as Leonardo Da Vinci that complete mastery over multiple disciplines has been witnessed.

There are two theories of intelligence (according to Carol Dweck). There is (a)the Entity theory and (b)the Incremental theory. Entity theory posits that intelligence is fixed, ergo, however hard you try, you still wouldn't be able to augment your intelligence nor will it decline by itself regardless of whether or not it is stimulated (IQ tests seem to lean towards this theory i.e. that intelligence is a fixed and rigid entity).

Incremental theory on the other hand – of which I'm an adherent – posits that intelligence is fluid, and that it can by dint of effort be improved upon, and that it can also be decreased by a perpetual state of mental herbitude or an insufficient amount of cognitive stimulation. That's besides the point by the way.

While I do not trust that statistical figure up there, I can't say it's entirely misleading. Education in its encapsulating reach – literacy, numeracy, (theoretical and practical) knowledge base, etc – shapes and refines the thoughts of an individual. So an individual might be naturally bright but if he's deprived of a sound education he would easily pass off as an incoherent dunderplate.

I think it's fair to say that the more educated an individual is, the more intelligent he or she is likely to be – at least he or she is bound to be intelligent in scholarly affairs.
Now, with an eye towards the low literacy level in many countries in Africa, the wide-spread poverty, the poor quality of life, and also the sub-standard education in both elementary and tertiary level, it becomes hard to ignore the "thick" correlation between education and intelligence.

Today it's a long drawn-out ASUU strike, tomorrow it's the closure of LAUTECH, the day after tomorrow it's another misadventure in the educational sector. With all these educational pitfalls it's not hard to imagine that Africans would rank lower than Caucasians in IQ tests. So you see, it's not so much our lack of intelligence as it is our milieu i.e. the disadvantaged environment we find ourselves. That explains why many Africans when placed in a right and conducive environment perform exceptionally well.

Also, our ultra-exuberance in matters of religion and the way we allow our minds to be governed by silly superstitions and obsolete cultural practices has a giant hand in why majority of us think regressively. When the typical African man is one who believes in levitating witches, charms and the likes; and who instead of cudgeling his brains whenever he's faced with a dilemma, chooses to abdicate all rigours of reasoning by entrusting his faith in an invisible God (or gods as the case may be), relying on him/she/it/them to descend from the high heavens to come alleviate his earthly troubles.
Besides our economic disadvantage, majority of our minds are sick and afflicted by religious dogma and tradition. Even the most intelligent African man occasionally says and does foolish things in those moments when he chooses to rely on what his Bible or his Qu'rân demands of him.
Did you know that a research once conducted to assess the wealth of nations revealed a negative correlation between how religious a nation is and how economically prosperous it is? i.e. the more religious the inhabitants of a nation are, the less rich and progressive that nation is.

But, like the Africans we are, instead of admitting that we have a problem, our recourse is to a misplaced show of patriotism, and to begin to rave, as one in a fit of paranoia, about how the Whites purposefully cooked up contraptions like IQ tests as way of denigrating the negroes (Persecution complex). Some nationalistic zealots on this thread even countered that if the average African has a low IQ then how possible is it they still have the intelligence to defraud Whites in online business. Really? The foregoing is just another evidence of the poverty of our thoughts.

I cannot say that the statistics is entirely wrong, because it isn't.

Destinyy22:
I learnt something new from you; the entity and incremental theories of intelligence, I won't forget that. Your argument on the poor intellectual ability of Africans is valid too except for the religion. Countries like Pakistan, Iran Saudi Arabia and other staunch Islamic countries are world power countries that have demonstrated religious fanaticism.

Bitcoin1000:
Why only African countries


You claim to have high IQ yet school drop outs scam you of your hard earned money daily

Oyinbo go and sleep
