Nonsense

Oga Sukkot, I understand what you are saying. But I think you are not getting the context right in my opinion

I believe hardworking means someone who invests his time, energy,resources,convenience etc into a work. But whether he produces satisfactory output is a different matter.

For example, If a persons leaves home by 5am in order to get to work by 8am, closes by 5pm to get home by 10pm as most Lagosians do, then that's hardwork. That routine is not a child's play. However, half of his time at work might be used to chat instead of being productive so while he is depriving himself sleep to go to work, we can say he is working hard but unproductive.

The reason why lots of Nigerians are unproductive is because we don't see our work as a service but just a means to get money. It's like I put in the effort, you pay me my money. Whether the result is unsatisfactory or not that one no concern me,just pay me my money.

I think we are hardworking but unprofessional and unproductive

I agree with you except on 2 issues.
The west is not anti social as you portray it. Anyone who wants to be social will always find social things to do, the thing is there is time to work and time to play, we don't mix it up, it is an organized society

You are right when you say people don't have your time in the west but in Nigeria the reason why people have your time is not necessarily by choice but by design.


For instance, when you live in a flat and you don't have light on a Saturday evening with heat making your life miserable, what do you do? You will come out to receive fresh air, your neighbors experiencing the same thing will come out too before you know it you are chatting and laughing with your neighbors, getting to know them and forming some kind of bond. When you go across the street to buy something, you meet someone that lives across the street coming to the same shop and you start talking. If Nigeria is a country with 24/7 light, you have AC and cheap unlimited wifi internet and no street trading like we have here, do you think people will be coming out to chat with neighbors? The streets will be quieter as people will rather watch movies, chop kpomo etc than coming out to gossip and feel good. People will have less time for neighbors. For example, how many people do you see on the street in those beautiful estates in Lekki and Ikoyi compared to streets in Ogba,Ojota, Surulere etc?

Secondly Nigerians work hard. The only problem with Nigerians is lack of quality customer service orientation. He can work all the hard but deliver a shoddy job cos he cares less about quality but just the money. If his salary is guaranteed at the end of the month, he can leave his house by 5am and get to work by 7am and still play around without delivering any tangible output and come back by 10pm. If his pay is dependent on finishing the job, he can even work overnight without sleep but delivers a shoddy job just to collect his money. Our service level in Nigeria is too poor cos all we care about is money not necessarily that we don't work hard.

Finally, it is known that as per foreigners in many Canadian Provinces you have Nigerians, Arabs, Asians, and Indians/Pakistanis. These other groups unite so well. They even influence elections and present candidates as Council Members. And they win. They can do this due to the Unity and Common sense of purpose they have. Nigerians will have serious issues in this regard. Jealousy, envy, unhealthy and very sick and wicked spirit of competition will not allow them achieve administrative strength and political power in these Provinces and cities in Canada.

Familiarity breeds contempt.During covid lockdown, some said it was horrible to sit at home, but for me it was a normal moment.There is a difference between feeling lonely and being alone.I find peace and solace being alone.I don't feel lonely at all.On my free time,l exercise more at home than going to noisy gyms full of egocentric fellows.I like running or walking too by myself.l will like to move to Canada cause it seem to match with my personality.

Bliss62:

Well from my own experience oo, Nigerians or Japarians are hardworking and not lazy

Pakistani, Indian, Lebanese, Arab, comiunity would gather together to socialize, help themselves, intermarry, network

Nigerian neighbors won't even great themselves

One time our philipino HR back then needed, workers, overseas ... see as Pakistani, Indian were submiting CV for there people, we Nigerians submit nada, no help, we still dey survive

Bliss62:



I don't know one single Nigerian that is not hard working to survive or live off Government stipend

And I know many many Americans on food stamps, many British living in Council home, many homeless
