Hadampson:
Custom and culture differences

Nigeria culture is totally different from foreign country culture, so it is not advisable to practice their culture because its not endearing to Nigerian.

For example in United kingdom (UK) the pattern children use to greet their parent is totally different from Nigeria's own.

A child can just wake up in the morning and say 'morning mom' while on standing but in 9ja you woke up and kneel down for morning prayer from your parent another one 'hi dad' with handshake. Who born you well in Nigeria.

Also you're not allowed to beat your children at all, if you do so you might land in jail. Where as in Nigeria you can beat, and beat your children and even give them hard punishment though beating is not advisable

This is correct.

Myself, for example, when two of my children were unruly, I beat them full sore, both day and night. A third child who displayed even greater disobedience, I killed her with my own hand.

We could never practice this customs in obodo oyinbo.

Truly, there is no place like home.

while I am not against spanking


moderation is key.

black folks are largely animalistic when spanking their kids (belts, stick and violent beating)

Discipline is non negotiable


But moderation is key.

Bracha:
I don't think Nigeria has a middle class: i.e a middle class in the strict meaning of the word. Most of the people in that range here are just people one less paycheck away from poverty. In my opinion.

you have said the truth

EMMAACHILE:

Nigeria is a third world country and is not at par with the developed world.
With money, you can overcome some of these issues to an extent. Some parts of Nigeria has almost 24/7 supply of electricity like Makurdi, Jos, Lokoja (33 kva line)
Health is only poor if you have life threatening diseases and issue of security is low in some cities outside Lagos. The major danger in security is on the highways and those farming in rural areas. If you live in Abuja city centre for example, how is security a threat?

If I were still in my 20s, I would have fled this country long ago.

I see

greatfa4:

That is a big lie bro. In some western Europe countries, if you are a low earner like 1200 euro a month, you don't pay child welfare money, the government will be paying on your behalf. But if one day you earn up to 2000, they get have a system of calculating it. So in the first place why will you have a child without ready to take responsibility. This is how Nigerian men born full everywhere without taking responsibility.

the setting in Nigeria encourages men to be irresponsible

Yes, i would say its a mixture of poor leadership, a culture of self-interest and greed, and an unstable economy. The economy point is an interesting one, because it crashed fairly recently but the bad behaviour was there previously. so it could be even more of an intrinsic problem

Onwards and upwards

keyword: A culture of self interest and greed.


Africa and Africans are still at the primordial /animal stage in development

because that's how animals behave

Humans of the 21st century put interest of community and country FIRST

Third World $hithole failed states like NIGERIA put self and family interest first, and don't mind wrecking the society to achieve that.

Its for this reason ALONE that I don't see Africa as a group moving forward Any time soon.

Travelling to a foreign Country with no plan is very bad, immigrating illegally is worse.. I have never travelled overseas but I think it's worth it if you don't earn well in Nigeria... But for those that leave a good job here in Nigeria and migrate there are fools...

Very useless write up. Smacks of lack of information which is actually very sad. The writer obviously is living under a rock and knows very little about his chosen topic. Thank God for Nigerians in diaspora who support their families and friends in Nigeria, if not the state of Nigeria would be worse than Syria. Research how much diasporians pour into Nigeria every year, it runs into billions of Naira. Also imagine if no Nigerians left Nigeria, the country would have burst into flames by now. The only way to curb the exodus is for the leadership of the nation are held accountable, and people’s mindset about various issues changed. Till then the only place worse than Nigeria is hell fire.

And this is something of pride to admit about.

Treating another human being you cannot create like an animal? It's only a shithole country called Nigeria is this barbaric behaviors acceptable.

Lol youre too cynical but youre right sha

Even if you try to be altruistic and do the right thing, your family will even be the first ones to curse you and call you "Saint Peter", "goodie" and other such names that are usually a compliment

Na to just get your own spoonful of the national peppersoup!

Which way, Nigeria!
