Convincing Nigerians to see the positive sides of our society is not an easy task, mainly due to the negatives that are easily noticeable around us. It is very easy to see how bad things really are, infact, it seems almost impossible to see the positive in our society nowadays that is mainly dominated by negative scenarios .
You wouldn't have to look farther in this country to see how poor the citizens are, the corruption-driven mindset of each individual and the government at large, massive unemployment, prostitution, online and offline professional scammers, kidnappings, neglect of human lifes just to mention a few. But I am of the opinion that even with all these scenarios, there are some noticeable positive things happening around us.
From our culture, our values and religions, our diversity, our languages, our music and arts in general, our dress pattern (culture also), our beautiful ladies and 'gentle' men , our hardworking youth population, our food(Nigerian Jollof can be so sweet ) just to name a few. Nigerians are very funny and lively too.
I believe it's time we start selling the narratives of how good our country is and how lovely it can be when we live in unity. Nigeria and its citizens has so much good to offer and until we set out minds to see the positives, we would only remain underwhelmed and defeated by the negatives of our society. Just as the popular saying, Nigeria, good people, great nation.

So what are you proud of as a Nigerian?

I am proud to be a nigerian
am proud of our culture, beauty,resources and great minds like chinua achebe, wole soyinka e.t.c

Honestly, I have no idea.

Sincerely, its life only

Do you want to know what I think? well, Nigeria shames me, especially when I think of our corrupt and visionless politicians

Proud kwa.how can you be proud of something you never benefited from?

Honestly, am proud of my fellow Nigerians on the street, whom in as much as the government fail them, they still keep their heads high, surviving against all odd. ThumbsUp guys.

am proud to have witness military junta and civilian regimes, something Americans can only imagine.

Proud because we are unique being.

If 10 different foreigners are living in an area, people will first to know about the Nigerian before knowing other citizens

I am not proud of anything...infact am even tired of dis country.....ain't we one Nigeria?....ain't there federal codes for public offices?....now all states got certain amount of trucks from NEMA....when it was Kano, d story was different....appointments were one sided during Buharis regime; sack or retire a southerner, replaces him/her with a northerner, sack or retire a northerner?....u know d answer....

Nigerians in South Africa were attacked via xenophobia.....what did Bubu n his government do?.....fast forward that to Nigerian lady arrested in Saudi Arabia for drug smuggling but later found innocent....see how federal government were so quick to intervene.....dis government only favours d north....I pray 2mo we have a southerner who does same n may Amadioha thunder anyone who cares complain from d north

Nothing

Since we are different nations put together as a country, there must be equity and fairness before you can be proud of the country.

you don't have what to say

Wiseandtrue:
Yes we are proud of the corruption in government!

We are proud to be a citizen of a country without the effect of a president

We are proud that ACCESS BANK has laid off 75% of their workers and closing over 300 branches and the government will not do anything

We are proud that we have been seeing little or no palliatives

We are proud that this current government favours a tribe over another

So what exactly should we be proud about, maybe the North/politicians are shall

welcome to Nigeria ..the most useless country in the world, thanks to the fulanis

Lol, he said dividend of democracy

Ebonyeyes:
There is nothing to be proud of in Nigeria, it is the Giant of Corruption, a Limited PLC that has been sold to the highest bidder and a country ruled by a few Demonic Elites who wanted Nigerias independence to enrich themesleves and their generations yet unborn

However Abroad, apart from the useless Yahoo boys/girls who are tarnishing the image of Nigeria even further, Nigerians are one of the most educated in the world and are very hard-working and industrious which leads me to believe that if Nigeria was a functioning state that cared for and provided for it's citizens, Nigeria would be one of the best countries in the world.

you all can not identify one thing you are proud of about Nigeria...yet you call people an ipob member names for surpirting KANU.. who is the biggest fool now

Incoherent nonsense. We do not need another IBO thug pretending to be a liberator, we had one before in the form of Nnamdi Azikiwe and we know how that went, he enriched himself and his generations yet unborn.

I can only imagine what those times of military regimes felt like, there wasn't much freedom for the people then I guess but the government must have been a little bit less corrupt.

Thanks bro

Nothing

THAT COMMON FLIES CAN VERY EASILY PLAY CORONAVIRUS ON OUR ELITES AND TRADITIONAL RULERS ANYHOW.

BY OUR TRIANGULAR NATURE, WE ARE SO EASILY MANIPULATED BY OUTSIDERS . NOW WE ARE THREE LARGE ONES. THAT'S WHY IT'S EASY TO GET US. MAKE US TO 36 POWERFUL ONES, NIGERIA WILL BE A FORCE THAT'S NOT EASY TO TAKE FOR GRANTED.

The citizens make up the leadership. What is the attitude of Nigerians in that culture, stop blaming the leaders only.
