Portrayal of Nigerians was a turnoff for me.

really? you didn't view it as a compliment?

The only thing I can decipher from the lyrics of that song is that Ghanians are jealous of Nigerians

^^ o.k.

1 Million Nigerian students failed WAEC. LMAO.

BRIEF REPLY


FOKN Boiz: Kofi is a common name, that’s what even I say
But a Ghana man will never call a child Friday
Thank God we’re not Nigerians
Ahmed: Yeah, why don’t you refer to the Americans for naming their children Bush, Rice, Salamander, Gates, Newt, Stoneetc

FOKN Boiz: Always shouting very loud, don’t know how to whisper
And why say Mistor, instead of Mister
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians

Ahmed: We are independent and used to freedom and confidence. Just like Americans. Why do you call everybody Charlie in your country?

FOKN Boiz: You like school more than any African I’ve seen
Simple thirteen, you still say tharteen
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians
Ahmed: You can’t say it better either.

FOKN Boiz: They ban the whole team, you can’t even play
Can’t you just say Hi, what is Ki lon sele
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians
Ahmed: Ki lon sele is what’s up in Yoruba language you daft.

FOKN Boiz: You barely qualify, then get stuck
President Goodluck but you still suck
Thank God we’re not Nigerians
Ahmed: He is better than your blind president

FOKN Boiz: Instead of Hamburger or Pizza with ham
You eat Egusi with pounded yam
Thank God we’re not Nigerians
Ahmed: We are still better because we’ve got swag and identity. What is your national dish made of if any?

FOKN Boiz: Always trying to show off, even when you eat
One soup, no vegetable but twelve different meat
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians
Ahmed: We show of because we’ve got it all. If you’ve got it, flaunt it. Are you jelous?

FOKN Boiz: Fela was a great Musician, yes of course
(Inaudible) something drugs
Thank God we’re not Nigerians
Ahmed: Is there any Ghanaian musician you can compare to Fela?

FOKN Boiz: You created Nollywood,yes more of it
But too many witches and wizards in your film
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians
Ahmed: We have a better film industry. Ghanaian films are now porn movies why? Are your actors any more than porn stars?

FOKN Boiz: Always in traditional wear everywhere
Haven’t you hear of Armani wear
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians

Ahmed: We are proud of our heritage, we are independent minded unlike u slaves to western culture. Besides, what is ur traditional wear other than a loin cloth?

FONK Boiz: For example shining five piece agbada
You can look very good in Dolce and Gabbana
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians.
Ahmed: Our traditional wears stands out and make us distinct and beautiful from all others. We are proudly Nigerians.

FONK Boiz: Not going anywhere fast, let’s just stroll
Traffic everywhere, many bad bad roads
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians
Ahmed: No one can blame you as poverty has blinded your eyes to see who’s ahead of you. That’s a Nigerian. Ghana is stagnant and just in one place. Your economy can only be compared to just one state in Naija

FOKN: No street light from Oregun to Ikeja
Four four, join join two two on okada
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians

Ahmed: That is left to a government that is corrupt.

FOKN Boiz: Extra page in your passport to pass and go
You have learn very well from Obasanjo
Thank God we’re not Nigerians
Ahmed: Nigerians are found all over the globe unlike some very timid people I know in West Africa.

FOKN Boiz: Email fraud, Pyramid, 419
Oh that’s not fine
Thank God we’re not a Nigerians
Ahmed: Ghanaians started it all with the Baba Ijebu, lotto, wash wash and other vices.


FOKN Boiz: But at least you are better than Liberians

So thank God you’re not a Liberians
Ahmed: You are just pathetic bunch of artistes looking for cheap publicity. You can’t every be like Nigerian actors, musicians, footballers, business people and students. We are everywhere in your country galvanizing your economy. Our companies and banks are every in your country .
Thank God I am a Nigerian!

Here are the artist.

It is pretty funny to me.

I AM PROUDLY NIGERIAN if you do not like it go fok yourselves

The first time i visited ghana,i went there with an open mind,but to my surprise,once they hear me speak, they ask "are you a Nigerian"?"yes".then they start bashing right before me, Nigeria this and that,why wont TU Face be shot since he own more than 1 car etc.Most time i paid visit to neighbours around,with their radio tune to their local channels(dialet),they burst out laughing,and i ask"what"?they boldly translate to me the bad things they where saying about Nigerians(they call us ANAGO).
This was at the peak of EMMANUEL ADEBAYORS carrier, (then still with Asenal)to my greatest surprise he came up on Ghana local tv,with Micheal Essien and other footballers i couldnt recognize standing beside him to deny and say nasty things about Nigeria(am not a Nigerian,my parents are from TOGO stop calling me a Nigerian cause i dont have anything to do with them bla bla bla nasty nasty followed).then after that a big round of applause followed.
Am highly disappointed by all this acts from so called NATIONALIST AND PROFESSIONALS.I went there with love,but in return i got hatred.This has changed my perspective toward GHANIANS.

^^na today,  you never see something! just do your business, earn your money and put them in positions where they belong!

Ghanaians = inferiority complex

Phweh, my brethers e make pahh

9jaganja: Yes our English may be bad

alex_101: Buyayhaha! This is what happens when a grown ar.se (51-yr-old nigeria) refuses to "grow up". I have stopped defending the lie called "one-nigeria".

Ghanains and the rest of the world, I say carry on,,,the dungeon called nigeria deserves every form of humiliation, atleast until it ceases to exist .

GOD WILL HUNT YOU DOWN AND GIVE YOU A.I.D.S

by Drlulu:
the solution to this is to remove yoruba ,edo and delta ,where is becomrich he needs to see this thread

This quote is incredibly ironic given the fact that it is the Igbo tribe that has done by far the greatest damage to Nigeria’s image than any other ethnic group. Igbos are mostly responsible for our 419 and drug-dealing reputation all over the world. Everybody knows it. Even South Africans who are familiar with Nigeria’s ethnicities say that the people running prostitution rings in their country are mostly Igbos. Every time you hear or read about a Nigerian or group of Nigerians arrested in other countries for drug smuggling, their names always turns out to be Igbo. They are also the ones responsible for this silly nollywood films that have turned us into a laughing stock around the world. It is largely because of Yorubas that Nigeria still has some good reputation in the western world due to their academic intellect.

Please, Igbos, abeg go away and form your own country (biafra or whatever you want to call it). I’m begging you in Jesus name, GO.

by Ileke-Idi:
Is it just me or am I the only one that thinks Ghana thinks nigeria= Yorubaland?

"Can’t you just say Hi, what is Ki lon sele"

"You eat Egusi with pounded yam"

"For example shining five piece agbada"

"No street light from Oregun to Ikeja"
I thought they said Yoruba influence no dey travel pass Benin.

Actually, the entire world tends to confuse Yoruba culture for "Nigerian culture".

Fokn Bois recent song, Thank God I’m Not A Nigerians, has caused some controversy as it
was meant to do. The controversy itself is
interesting for the issues that it raises. Explaining a joke means it loses its humour. It
also becomes incredibly pedantic. So if you’ve
already got the joke, I suggest you go and read
something more interesting! The controversy Some think it is ridiculing Nigerian culture
but the point is missed as I will reveal later. An offence has been taken due to a
mishearing of the lyrics, reproduced on
many Nigerian websites, in which a verse
about Fela’s red draws (underpants) is
reported as “[something inaudible] drugs”. Some Ghanaian critics have highlighted the
mismatch of Wunlov’s African wear with
the songs critique of Nigerians for wearing
the same. But they didn’t question the
obvious contradiction seeing it only as
hypocrisy. Responses involve the accusation that this
song will destroy hopes of African unity, a
rather grand claim, but actually the
reactions themselves indicate possible
obstacles to unity. Some people have not seen the joke. Some
have even missed the clue – the deliberate
grammatical error in the title, the name of
the group and the fact they describe
themselves on Twitter as a “Christian rap duo”! The Background M3NSA and Wanlov the Kubolor are two musicians who come together to make Fokn
Bois. M3NSA is married to a Nigerian and his
daughter is Nigerian. He also enjoys Nigerian
food (there are comments in the song relating to
food). Kubolor means vagabond in the Ga language
hence he walks in bare feet. He also dresses in
his own unique African style – I don’t think
you’ll see him in Armani wear – as he sports his Trashy Bag made from the waste of pure water satchets! The duo are comedians hence the name Fokn
Bois. Humour should have no boundaries.
Programs such as South Park laugh at religion,
Jews, gays and the disabled. Black American
comedians make jokes about whites. British
comedians often ridicule their own audiences. People who appreciate this appreciate the
context and are able to laugh at themselves.
M3NSA and Wanlov both have international
influences and have travelled widely and their
music and views reflect a wider perspective. Failing to see the context of the song has
prevented an understanding of its intentions. The root of the problem? People mistake the character a musician
might play, for real life. People read song lyrics in the same way as
they read the bible – literally! (Yes, readers
I managed to slip in a dig at religion, even
into this post!) When I heard the song it seemed to me to be a
gentle teasing of cultural difference. There was
nothing vicious or nasty in it. However, it can be
difficult hearing a criticism, no matter how nicely
expressed, of one’s own country. We have to
accept that there is a history of rivalry between Ghana and Nigeria so it has immediately been
presumed this song is an attack. However,
people have rushed to send insults back the
other way without taking time to think. The fact that people seem to expect to be
insulted and respond by throwing more insults
perhaps suggests what the problems to African
unity really are. Fokn Bois became a symbol of
the whole of Ghana as the insults were not just
confined to the musicians but projected onto all Ghanaians. Are we able to move beyond this
hyper-sensitivity? Can we control ego and pride? The punch line The whole point of the song for me is not an
attack on Nigerians but, implicitly, a parodying of
the petty attitudes of some Ghanaians. There is obviously some teasing of Nigerians
involved but aren’t Fokn Bois adopting the
personas of narrow-minded people in order to
laugh at them? So we hear a criticism of traditional dress and a
pretentious glorification of Armani. We hear a
certain envy at the amount of meats Nigerians
eat. We hear negative attitudes to Liberians
(when I first came to Ghana I was advised to stay
away from Liberians!) and so on. Fokn Bois are not expressing their own
prejudices, in my opinion, but are parodying the
small-minds of some Ghanaians. Some Nigerians
have obviously seen this but didn’t take it further
to realise this is the joke. It’s also been lost on
some Ghanaians who thought they were laughing at Nigerians! Or am I reading too much into it? Let the games
begin!

Never hard ghananian like Nigerians,

Egusi, Seeds- Egusi soup - that zestful spicy companion to your Pounded Yam. If you want a meal that will water your mouth and fill your stomach, look no further than the most popular soup in Nigeria.
