this is not true. Stop lumping all countries together. The kind of Nigerians in Canada are mostly not same with those in malaysia, cyprus, south africa, uae etc. some Nigerians are doing good in those countries too, while some are doing bad . Russians, north koreas, indians are into scams and crime, why are their people not judged

I met someone today who clearly denied his nationality... When your accent, looks clearly shows Nigerian.

We met at a wear store in Toronto, we interacted and ask him his background and he denied his nationality straight up and said 'he's from the caribbean, which his actually from Nigeria.
I told him I'm a Nigerian and we exchanged number

Initially I knew this guy is a Nigerian and his whatsapp picture gave me double assurance.

But the issue is why are Nigerians in diaspora [/b]denying their origin?

[b]Majority of Nigerian living oversea has messed up and tarnished the issue of Nigeria. This people misused precious opportunities giving to them by the oyinbos.

Now we will be lamenting on the government back home, is the govt the problem here again? People will hardly give you regards here as a Nigerian. Nigerians are known for cheap scams.
[/b]The girls will never wanna date you as a Nigerian.[/b]

In Italy, landlords will never want to rent you their house once they discover you are a Nigerian.
In dubai, no job for Nigerians, its hard to get one
In SA, they are known for drugs and all sort of rubbish.
Infact all the country in the world won't want to associate once they knew you are a Nigerian, even some African countries

Yet we kept on blaming the government.

Even the ones back home has spoiled the country image internationally.
Calling her Zoo and all sort.

Are Nigerians abroad doing any better? NO

These people need to change their ways.
It's not few Nigerians, but Majority.

Hello house, good day.

Please, what's the best way/route to get to London, Ontario..? My flight is from Lagos-Toronto but my final destination is London.

Also, anyone that has potential/available accommodation in London.?

Thanks

maziude:


You should book a flight from Lagos to London, that takes out the stress of having to scuffle last minute at Toronto especially if you are a first time traveller to Canada. Don’t underestimate the stress you will go through.

However, if you booked your flight to Toronto, after clearing customs and getting your bags, you can book a flight to London at any of the local airline kiosk located at the airport.

You should sort out your accommodation first. That is priority!!!

I respect your opinion but honestly, it’s not a big deal and I understand why the dude denied being Nigerian. I respect and support his decision and I won’t judge him based on that. Idk if you’ve “LIVED” outside Canada & Nigeria and I don’t mean "visit" other countries but “lived”…. If you have then this shouldn’t be a surprise to you. I have lived in southeast Asia since 2016 and had my Master's and Ph.D. there and I can tell you I always claimed to be from Cape Town…when they ask where is that located I’ll say South Africa. I don’t associate with Nigerians there only coworkers, or church members, and neither do I live in a neighbourhood where there are lotta Nigerians. I was the only black dude in a Chinese-dominated estate that’s how strict I lived my life, never to be judged based on my country and I live with that rule to date. That’s why I love visiting Japan and South Korea they don’t ask the sentence “where you from”. I deny being Nigerian when I have to, it’s the stigma attached to the name Nigeria!. That’s why I hate the sentence “where are you from” it’s a trigger to some of the things I lost just by claiming to be Nigerian. So don’t judge anyone because he denied being Nigerian they have their reasons.

I'm 15 years old, my family is in this process is thought of helping my mum out with some infos here she's a busy person and she's already on numerous whatsapp and telegram groups already, we got ITA via MPNP our AOR is January 2022

Also, I'm in ss3 I want to know if it's better for me to go back to high school when we get to winnipeg or I should go to college straight away. but I want to go back to high school because I literally don't understand the context of Nigerian physics and chemistry

your responses are highly appreciated
cheers!!

What you are defending is a lie of convenience. A lie that helps to avoid other possibly difficult questions. It’s okay if that’s something you also do, but it’s untenable to claim that it’s not a big deal. It is in fact a big deal. We may not have been able to choose where we all come from, but we owe it to our future generations or our children to stand tall and accept our identities. I hate to make the comparison, but if you can make excuses for this, who is to say you won’t make excuses for a visibly white, but genetically black person who claims to be white just to escape the travails his race is going through when they could instead join the campaign to right the wrong in society? I’m not making this up. There have been cases and they make for stunning stories of years of lies. Would you perhaps even go further to change your skin color if the chance presented itself because it will save you even more trouble and/or more stares? Think about that!

Some people think they are compassionate or that they are good people, but they have hardly passed a true test such as this where they have to admit who they truly are, or to which group they belong in the face of whatever disadvantages it may bring. But is it even truly disadvantageous to say you are Nigerian? If you are good people, shouldn’t you care to let those who deride Nigerians see an exception in you? I think the question you should ask yourself is if you want to continuously be the example that will make others see Nigerians in better light or if you just want to run away from your identity because it is inconvenient.

Perhaps you are a Christian. If you are, also ask yourself, “what would Jesus do?”

NB: I am no Christian
