Reaction as Africans talked about what shook them when they moved abroad

All man for himself

Media propaganda

Definitely Nigeria

Information is life

How true

Definitely no trade by bata

Number 6, no doubt about that.

Infact, we may not invent the best of technologies but we sure own the best of it.

A mother will charge her daughter to babysit her grandchild, NoFreeZone

we grew up with western propaganda. China is taking over

.

Smarter than the teacher

Winter na your mate?

Interesting.... The one up here surprised me and scared me

" When you wake up in the morning and you didn't get morning erection as a man "

Person no get money for pocket yet you no get active Gbola for under Make we no see akoba.

I love this thread m

It was the culture shock at Heathrow airport; seeing more Indians and Chinese compared to any other race.

It was the fact that eight in the evening was no different from five p.m. back home.

It was the fact that the spring weather was tolerable, but once it reached ten o’clock at night, temperatures plummeted.

It was the fact that the sun rose at four in the morning as opposed to half six like home.

It was the fact that every location looked the same. I had never seen such a situation especially back home where the norm is a competition to make your edifice look more luxurious than the next man’s.

It was the fact I saw females under sixteen years of age pushing baby carriages and no one saw anything wrong.

It was the fact that everywhere was consciously quiet save for some idiot children and teenagers being rebellious.

It was the fact that people came in differing shades and complexions as opposed to varying tones of ebony.

It was the fact that they spoke English in ways which took a while to comprehend.

It was the fact that obese Caucasians used mobility vehicles as opposed to walking like Africans.

It was the fact their beer was weak.

Many others exist which I could use to bore someone. Those were easiest to remember.

Issokay!!!

How clean the roads are. I love how everyone knows what to do when the season changes. Mow the public parks when in summer, plow the snow when in winter, clean the dried leaves when in fall and fertilize and clean the parks when in spring.

How organized the governments are. I am taking about Federal, state, county and mayors. Everyone has their role to play and each state has their laws.

How mentally retarded Americans are. They are raised in egoistical, violent and ignorant virtues and they see nothing wrong with it. They love violence.

How kids are parents and parents are kids. Parents are scared of their kids hence they cannot chastise them.

And oh, men are women and women are men. Never seen such weak men in my life. Women will yell at their men in public and their men will be quiet as a graveyard.

Lots of sick people here. No manners, no community, no friends, everyone goes to work, comes back home, eat and sleep. Neighbors do not see often as everyone is damned busy. Rise and repeat.

Obsessed citizens here and there.

America being the richest country has lots of poor citizens and when you raise this issue, the citizens are ready to tear you apart. Very ignorant set of people.

Work, work and work. Americans see themselves as lazy if they are not working. Good thing the Gen Z changing this.

Pop Culture, celebrity worship.

Family values are different here. Mothers, Fathers and their kids might not talk or speak to each and they are fine with it. They find it easy to cut each other off. No wonder lots of mentally depressed people are skyrocketing.

Ambulance is not free. Can go as $4000 depending on the miles. Education is expensive too.

Less organic foods and they are very expensive.

Guns, Guns, Guns. To me, i think Americans love their guns than their kids.

Oh and Americans love excuses. They call it "Whataboutism" . Too fake set of people. Smile with you and stab you while not looking. I realized this very early and know how to play them.

Everything is transactional. In Africa where we do things for the common good, it does not apply here.

First time i realize the color of my skin. Here, you are treated in the color of your skin.

Kids can change gender at 10 but cannot buy beer until 21

I could go on and on but don't wanna bore.
