Every Nigerian is angry in their default mode. So the best way to get assistance is to say " abeg no vex" before you ask your question. 2 Likes |

Well i think it is as a result of poor orientation. Instead of simply saying "Please excuse me" . |

MaDaRa01: Because we were trained from childhood not to speak up for ourselves. Our parents did not listen to us as children. Whites on the other hand listen to their children and that is why they invent things. Questions are the basis of knowledge and intelligence 3 Likes |

This is not a Nigerian thing although the "sorry" word is common with Nigerians. People of other countries use "Pardon me or Excuse me" or their native language. This is done because most times you interrupt people's thoughts when you speak to them first or you stop them in their tracks to ask these questions. 10 Likes |

Philosopher1979: I can tell you straight away that many whites say "Sorry" before asking a question just as often, since it implies the longer form "Sorry to disturb you, but [insert question]", and that way too many parents do not listen to their children at all here in the West. |

Every single individual in this country is angry that is why you should say sorry before saying anything. |
