So the slaughtering of people in Plateau, Benue and other parts of Nigeria is below where Nigerians have been murdered outside Nigeria?

Of course not.

I’m really wondering if all these people that keep saying Nigerian tribalism is worse than racism in US/Europe etc. have actually lived outside the shores of Nigeria.

What is this? She lied to her fanbase in America that she was kidnapped in Nigeria for 1 million ransome just last week.

A woman that said the truth about her own country.

Yes, Its not on every public platform she should talk like that.

Wow people here are supporting and praising a woman that denigrated her own country of origin.

Most of the commenters on here being angry at South Africa for xenophobia, don’t show that same energy towards Libya.
You’’ll see nairalanders mocking making insensitive comments towards fellow Nigerians in Libya who are going through 100X worse problems
than the xenophobia in South Africa.

Nigerians suffer from a deep inferiority complex. We use our inferiority complex and high sense of self deprecation as a people to create the perfection that does not exist out of other people and nations.

There’s so much to be proud of in being Nigerian. There is no need for us to have self-hate.
The formula to success as a people and country, nation is very simple. We just arent doing it yet.

If a Nigerian-American had made a video like this….
Would the reception be this warm and jovily? But an oyinbo, everyone dies to claim him. lol

Hi, Diaspora wars between Black American and Nigerians/Africans, both sides people have wronged each other. Generally the wrongs are misunderstandings with no bad intent.

I have always rocked with black, Nigerian, African culture. The B.S I've said about my Black American brethren wasn't out of ill-intent, I send my sincere apologies for those comments. And this goes to whites and anyone else to, being pro-black should not lead to putting down a brother of any race. My bad and apologies for the ish I said. My apologies to Nigerian brethren Ive offended to at any point throughout the course on this forum.

We thank God Jesus may He unite us all in peace.

Im not understanding. Is Labor Party unaware of the politics of each of the 36 states in Nigeria? Anyone who has their ears on ground in Edo State, would know the long overdue power rotation to Edo Central. APC and PDP knew this and chose a candidate accordingly, even Osho couldn't stop it. Im not understanding LP's rationale here.

Wow, I really respect Iwobi. Even after those insults he received a month ago, he is back and ready to play for his country.

lol, if this happened in America they would make sure to put he is Nigerian born

CORRECTION: Although that was a dreadful miss and a 2010 team that was completely apathetic about playing in the first World Cup hosted on African soil, he did make up for that miss. They were losing 1-2, and he missed that goal then 3 minutes later he tied the game with PK. So either way he made up for it. The article was dubious saying score was 2-2. And people were being unreasonable with him. They should have dragged Sani Kaita. They need the drag that whole 23 man squad that played like sh**, with the exception of Enyeama.

In the initial post, I didn't see where it was stated that the lad is biracial. If biracial, then the case is different. Most times, biracial folks marry a member of the dominant race, not the minority race.

As for your first statement, I cannot say as there is no data. But I have watched a video on Twitter where a black lad in France with his white girlfriend was yelling at another black lady (obviously a new migrant) to "go back to her country". The white girl looked surprised when she heard that statement.

Na only African Americans I fit "understand" that statement from. Everyone else went to the developed world WILLINGLY.

Ok, I thought the other guy that had said he was biracial. But yes it’s messed up. Unfortunately too many of our people are stubborn.

lol, the guy didn’t realize that when he puts down a fellow African, people like his girlfriend are watching and now know how to treat us. Even in Rwanda in 1994, not only did the rest of the world shut them out, but the whole continent ignored them to.

The world is used to us not caring about ourselves, so why should they. I’m not excusing racist and prejudice against us, it’s just that we make it worse just like that African guy in France, when we can easily make it better.

Her excuse is that she is changing the name to honor her grandmother, who even died before she was born. She didn't want an African name, she wants American name, simple. I mean she is part Black American through her mother and Kenyan and mixed through her dad but her dad's paternal ancestry is African(Kenyan)

She changed her African name to an American name. You guys here on Nairaland can continue to play as dumb as you like.

Terrible! Terrible!! Terrible!!!

I am curious, did he just label you a c*nt for no reason at all? What initiated the slur?

OTOH, I find it hilarious when blacks who are naturalised citizens of European countries label those from Africa with slurs. Except for African Americans, the rest of blacks outside in the developed world went willingly as migrants. I can understand "go back to your country" from an African American, not a descendant of black Africa. Person wey him papa enter the country just after the World War.

Another reason why I no dey take all this black solidarity movements seriously. But I grab the benefits tho

Sha, the good thing is, unlike the US, native Europeans will put such people into their rightful place. No be humans dem be? Humans are tribal.

How often do Africans abroad say this, na? The rude African in question is biracial. He is half white, half African. People with white or Black American mothers often don’t view themselves as African.

Phenmeson:
Sorry to say some kids need proper factory reset. The training some parents giv their kids are out of it.
I dey do my work jejely today, na so a black guy over 20yrs buy child ticket and waka with is white babe.
Next thing he tells me say me African guy & black c**t say mak I go back to my country.
I question am say which colour he be,he say he no b black.
Wen my supervisor comes,na so dis same guy switched topic say na me dey racist to am.
Just imagine if 15yr old girl save money,fly out of the country, join the group.
Now she won waka back come UK after all the atrocity.may be she think say she & the prodigal son na the same.
If they giv her the citizenship,it will motivate others to join other groups.
Regardless of ethnicity, religion,gender mak people shun terrorism.

This rude African guy you’re talking about: Did you say his mother is white? So he is biracial?

He’s too pretty to be Edo governor. Abeg sit down. Abeg let men like Okpebholo and Ighodalo take the helm

Something about this seems off. How can you give a foreigner someone's land and house. He can return the money that he stole, but to give away his land and house? Ive seen similar stuff like this in The Gambia and Ghana, were foreigners buy the people's land and stuff from the local chiefs, driving the locals out of their ancestral land.

Whoaaaaaaaaa

ZekeYeager:
No. Most of them look like Adams Oshiomole

Jeon:
Please stop, Rema is not cute.
Shallipopi,Viktor ,Davido's Isreal, Adams, Godwin and Philip are from Edo State, but cute is hiding from them.



Which means Edo men and cute can never be in same sentence.

No homo, but I didn't see anything ugly in some of the men you mentioned. Im not sure what's so ugly about Israel DMV or Shallipopi. Nothing ugly about them.

Wow, So Idahosa is who they are declaring the winner for APC. PDP has the stronger candidate. However, I hope Oshiomhole and APC doesn't rig this election in September. Because all APC do is rig rig rig and unfortuanetly, they have been successful at doing so. Oshiomhole is their number 1 when it comes to rigging.

Nawaa, must you give our enemies another way to laugh at us? Lol, I feel for you Teni, I'm a fan of yours.

Yea Ekong played very well. He had our only goal in a couple of the matches in the tournament. His defending was superb, he nailed all of his penalties and he had that excellent goal-scoring header that gave us the lead for the first 60 minutes of the match. He is truly deserving of the award.

Iwobi and Aina were horrible, especially Aina. He killed several counter attacks. Chukwueze despite being a top 3 player on our squad, was irrelevant throughout the tournament, especially in the knockout stages. To be honest, you can't blame the coach, if he had changed the tactics that he had been giving us success throughout the tournament, and we lost, everyone would be blaming him of changing something that was working. But yes, his tactics were poor, and it seemed like they were relying on luck, their GK and defense to carry them through. And the midfielders failed to even utilize Osimhen, who is one of the best strikers in the world.

And that was very poor officiating in the first half of the match. The ref was clearly favoring Ivory Coast.

Wow, beautiful, The warmth and the love

Wow, stunning beautiful
