MrPresident1:
President Donald Trump is a born again Christian. He is an example to all born again Christians that they can go into politics and make a difference. OP, President Donald Trump is a good and positive example that a born again Christian can be involved in active politics. Other examples are:

Secretary Mike Pompeo and Dr Ben Carson

Strong Christian men doing the Lord's work in the highest echelons of political power
What makes Trump a born again Christian? Do you live in America at all? With all his fornication, lies and fraud?

This girl may minimally talented music wise but no female entertainer beats her in terms of publicity.
She worked her way into football Twitter by shedding tears for arsenal and joining Manchester united and that earned her a spot in the United's New Jersey advert.

But one fact still remains,she sucks in music. Her sister Tolani does better.
Have you listened to her new album - there are nice songs on it like Wale, Africa, Litty Litty, etc

She isn't a Nigerian, She is an American, so change that Mentality/ perspective you got. So that you don't start unconsciously comparing her with Girls here in Nigeria. My two cents.
She's both tho. That's why we call them Nigerian-Americans. In others, people in her category are Nigerians who were born and raised in the US. Put differently, they are Americans of Nigerian heritage but most people here in the US see them as Nigerians.

Lol bro. I’ve been in the US for a while and I can tell you that Nigerian Americans are culturally different from Akitas. It depends on the personality tho but many of them(Nigerian Americans) do possess great qualities. The only BUT that you may have is that they are largely independent minded and they usually have high expectations - career, physical features, finance, spiritual life and stuff like that.

She may hold that pass for you to achieve more etc but your values may not be the same.
Akata values are different from ours.

As you're saving to build a house, she's thinking of spending that money on holiday trips.

Check yourself.
Nigerian girls in the US are culturally different from Akata. Their worldviews and upbringing are different as well.

Hello @Trumptweet, I'm a Nigerian in the US and I created this thread some months ago about this topic. You may find it helpful.

In all, it depends on the personality of the girl you are talking to but over 90% of Nigerian-American girls are independent-minded. Just go through the thread.

The divorce court system isn't bothered by that. As long as the woman claims she was made to sign the prenup under duress, the court will toss the prenup aside. - martinez39s.

Or she can claim to have been on some medication when she signed the agreement. She just has to get her friends to vouch for her and a doctor to have that info on record and she's free to loot your gold.

The west is bleeped up.

There is no dialogue that can halt the proclivity of people to commit crimes. We Nigerians need to hold ourselves accountable. You can't go to other people's countries and be scamming them and expect them to tolerate it. Nigerians need to stop this ”get rich by all means attitude”. This is not about the government here -I’ve seen many Nigerians misbehave here in the US for greedy and stu.pid reasons.

Diplomatic relation will not condone crime! Call some of your brothers and sisters to order. Tell them to stop cultism. Tell them to stop Internet fraud. Tell them to stop blackmailing. Tell them to get a life.

Stop calling on government on the stinking attitude of many Nigerians. It is a disgrace that some of you don't even know what is causing this denial of visa renewal. If you know nothing about this, just read and learn.
My brother, God will bless you for this comment. I’m a Nigerian in the diaspora and I can tell you that until Nigerians stop this behavior of greed and getting rich at all costs, we will continue to face this discrimination. People will blame bad governance in Nigeria - but they leave Naija and still come to the West to do fraud(instead of working legit) because they want to ride Benz and live lavishly. And some morons will still blame corrupt leaders as if Nigeria is the only country with corrupt leaders in the world. Nonsense! angry

Blame the press for promoting negative news in Nigeria . Nigeria is not the number one scamming nation in the world I don't think we're Number 5th . Sensible countries censor their media to protect their image but inferiority complex make promote our bad image just to appease our slave masters .

Ebola virus was named after place in Africa but china refused corona virus to the named after wuhan . Do you think the Chinese are foolish ?

No country is saint if every country give our their real news like Nigeria do you'll praise us some of those International community you worship are more Evil than Nigerians.
The issue here is that people in those other countries don't come online to justify fraud but many stu.pid Nigerians will come on social media to praise Hush Puppi and other greedy miscreants that have ruined the reputation of the country abroad. When the news of Nigerians getting arrested for fraud trend across the world, foreigners will think it’s being perpetrated by just a few Nigerians but by the time they see the comments of many Nigerians justifying fraud on social media -then they will begin to look at Nigerians from the same lens.

Until Nigerians stop justifying internet fraud under any guise, we will continue to face this unfair discrimination.

My brother, we are the architects of our problems, not the government as the case here.
God will bless you for this comment. They keep blaming the govt but the issue here is greed and impatience. If it's about government and opportunities, then Naija people abroad won't engage in fraud. It's the urge to drive Benz and buy a house in Lekki overnight.

they are looking for papers that is why
So, every Nigerian who dates outside of his race needs a green card? I’ve been in the US for years now and most of my friends who married whites or African Americans are already US citizens who don't need any freakin green card. So, if I marry a white girl now, it automatically means I need papers?

The issue here has to do with the way Nigerian girls abroad treat guys during their lows.

When you're always comparing the white with Nigerian's women, you will always find fault in them.
What he meant was that if you tell a Nigerian girl that you don't know how to drive yet or that you just arrived here, she will stop chatting with you because she thinks you are below her standard. But a foreign babe will still try to accommodate you and grow with you.

Madam, not every Nigerian who is dating a white or AA girl in the US needs a green card. I have friends who have been here for decades(with a US passport) and they will tell you that they can never date Naija girls and their condescending behavior.



As a Nigerian in the US, I’ve always preferred ending up with a fellow Nigerian because I just love that Naija aura; spirit and energy but most of the Nigerian girls I met when I first arrived here were so cocky, condescending and unapproachable.

However, I think age plays a big factor. If you were born here(a Nigerian - American) or you came here at a relatively young age(below 23), it's somewhat easier to find a life partner. Maybe if you came here for college or grad school - you can easily find a partner while in school.

Nevertheless, many Nigerian girls in America tend to waste their chances by being unrealistic when they are still below the age of 25. Many of them easily look down on people and they play themselves later on. Let me tell you a story. I have this friend of mine who lives in New York - he was born and raised in Naija. He came here for his Master’s and when he first arrived - he wanted a Nigerian girl by all means but most of the Nigerian girls around him then looked down on him. They saw him as a ”fresher” who had a thick accent, weird dressing, and all those kinds of stuff. I had a similar experience with some Nigerian girls too but his own experience was worse. When the guy was struggling in the US - none of these girls offered any friendship/support because they all felt he was not within their illusionary standard. The only people that supported him were the foreigners in his graduate school. But the guy who was talented. He worked hard at Columbia University and he eventually got a top investment job with JP Morgan. This my guy earns ridiculous six figures amount almost every month now. But do you know most of the Naija girls who looked down on him all tried to be friends with him after he was featured by Bloomberg business report? Can you imagine such nonsense! Why did they suddenly find him attractive now?

Well, the guy is currently dating the white girl that stood by him when he first arrived in New York but he still told me last month that he had always preferred a Nigerian babe but life happens. What if those Naija girls had even given him a chance of being their friend? What if they had tried to know him and not just judge him based on his looks as a struggling freshly arrived immigrant?
Nigerian girls in North America keep looking for finished products when they themselves are not in any way ready-made. They want guys that are 6-4 tall, beards, cars, houses, and all of those fleeting things at the same time. It's a wrong mentality to have and that's why most of them are still single. Life is a process. You don't expect men to have achieved 90% of their life goals when you meet them. People grow! A guy may not be muscular today but he can look like Anthony Joshua after spending some months in the gym. People need to understand the fact that life is a process. Then, we can take it from there.


Many of them are also intoxicated with this whole feminist stuff. See, as I am, I can cook by myself and I probably don't need a wife who knows how to cook. But do you know what? I’ve had female friends who are East Africans, black Americans, and whites who cook Nigerian food and give them to me. My friends who date these foreigners enjoy Nigerian food made by these foreign girls.

Yet, our Nigerian ”sisters” will be shouting up and down that it is not their duty to cook in the family. I know how to cook but I also want a wife who is homely. If I don't see these qualities in any girl of Nigerian descent but the qualities are present in a Kenyan girl or a white girl, why should I marry a Nigerian girl? The incentive is not there! Some foreign girls even embody Naija qualities than the so-called Naija girls.

Don't mind many of these people who have not traveled across Nigeria and the world in general. There are more opportunities in Nigeria than Ghana. I’ve worked in many of these countries before as a consultant and I laugh when I see Nigerians throw their country under the bus. Nigeria is struggling in different areas but it still has the greatest economic potential in Africa.

Most parts of Ghana(apart from Accra and parts of Kumasi) cannot stand near most Nigerian cities. There is high rate of poverty and inequality in Ghana as well.

There is no way Ghana is 1,000 times better than Nigeria. I was worked as a consultant with a Ghanaian firm before moving to North America. Nigeria is still the largest economy in Africa. Based on my experience working as a consultant in over 20countries, the Nigerian environment is volatile but Nigeria has more to offer than any other African country. Check World Bank data.
