The Crazy Way Nigerians Have Colonized London And Other Cities Around The World by UrennaNkoli(f): 12:34am On Dec 17, 2017
From Peckham to Abbeywood to Brixton, kent road etc, I must confess Nigerians have really messed up this city. I have been around london in the past days and to God who made me, I never expected the Nigerian Population to be this much. I was in total shock. Nigerians boku here no be small. Its here you'll hear mama toyosi shouting on top of her voice early in the morning telling her kids to get ready for school even speaking youruba like "ton ba bi yin da e malo we" ( If they born you well don't go and have your bath) . Its here you'll meet a supposedly black English man and he'll ask yoi "bawo ni, ilu wo ni naija lo ti wa" . I noticed the yoruba's generally form the majority of Nigerians in London then the Igbos, then other tribes. I've met some hausa too tho. Met some at a trade fair displaying kaftan and fula. shocked. Nigerians are generally not difficult to spot. You'll easily find them talking at the top of their voice in restaurants usually in their native language, you'll easily find them eating in the streets while walking. You'll even find them in the streets fighting and exchanging blows, raining insults on eachother like they are in oshodi. Oh did I tell you of a next building neighbor who wakes the whole neighborhood every morning with beats from pasuma and sunny ade? The cops even showed up one time to ask whether all was well. Here, you'll feel like you are in lagos. I even heard its worse in the USA with places like baltimore , maryland. Nigerians nor dey try at all. At least if you can't behave yourself in your own country, try to be sensible in another man's land.

I'm not trying to be tribalistic but truth be told, just like you can argue Igbos run Asia and the USA. The yorubas run the UK (from the nigerian perspective). This place is Nigerians second home.

Maybe in South London but there are a handful of clubs and restaurants owned by Igbos in North London especially Tottenham.

My dear its common when a particular set of people from a country stay in a particular area in a foriegn country,if u go to texas u find so many latinos,its normal u cant change that,there re parts of the u.k u find mostly indians too,same in south africa,how ever i will always maintain we be of good behavior,this re some of the reasons south africans,indians and other countries re angry with Nigerians,we need to keep it cool,u see Nigerians shouting inside the plane like their father owns it,Lets say flight from lagos to jburg,they shout n make silly noises n immediately we re about to land,they become quiet and start behaving like someone that cant talk,they will nearly prostrate to greet the officers at the airport,they start behaving,immediately they enter the city they start thier madness again,this gets thier host angry,how can u be shouting in a bank,on the road in a foreign land,immediately they start u see their host getting angry,we gat2 start behaving...........
N U.K can be boring i swear,same live,same routine for years,i can’t deal,i prefare cape town come rain come shine.....u.s is fun,every city is unique,different live,its like very city is a different country in u.s.
