I can see that some people above are praising the decision simply because it is coming from their masters.If it were Nigerian government that banned TikTok, you will see them saying all sorts of nonsense.Hmmm I don't when Africans will be free from this mental slavery and inferiority complex

Willl you close your mouth, is the U.S your mate

before you talk about inferior complexity,

----- tell your presido and other politicans to stop coming here for medical treatments..
---- also tell your unemployed youths to stop seeking for greener pasture here

----- And your girls to stop imitating our slangs, all in the name of forming posh

only then can you talk about inferior complexity ...


a boy cant eat from the same plate his master does... be warned

That's your perspective which I know is one-sided based on a stereotypical mindset.

Take time to read the original thread. Avoid pessimism based on your experience or knowledge.

My position remains a FACT about NIGERIANS and this has beeen affirmed by many non- Nigerians including the OP.

Shut your mouth and accept the truth..

talk is cheap..

A Ghanaian stranger on nairaland and non-nigerians are now the ones telling you about your country... Please hide your face

If what i said is wrong then why is the country in a mess.

You're been oppressed by your so-called leaders ..

Nothing is working in the country both the private and public sector...

From education to electricity to banking is all in a mess ..

And you're here telling me this said this that...

Sniperwallace07:
Their general belief is that we're bad people. This belief is being propelled by JEALOUSY.

Who will be jealous of a zoo land..lol even Ghana is clear of this country.. so what will bring jealousy

KingOfAmebo:
You are a classical example of an educated illiterate.

no he's right we blow our own horn too much in this country... He who blow his own horn is not wise

Ofemmanu1:
Jokes apart Some Nigerians are the best people on earth.

Just like a fine 6ft tall, Capricorn like me;

I may be Different but I am Special,
I may be Loud but I am Brilliant!

I'm not talking about Awusa and Ipob pigs.


Some Nigerians are just Angels.

Best in what... Corruption?? I agree... otherwise you're mad ..

DavidEsq:
Stark jealousy.

They're doing better than us. Nothing like jealousy here.. accept the truth this country is finished

GoodIsGod:
Now I Kno you are a clown. You deserve to be called a stand-up comedian or rather a keyboard comedian.
I was in South Africa in 2010 so, your country is not where I have not been to.
I stayed at a place called Rosebank in Joburg.
Everyone in Africa knows how lazy South African men are. The reason your ladies prefer to date Nigerians. Before a Nigerian says hi, they have responded.

You are right to say our people leave the country because of bad leadership. We don't deny that. And the fact is that it is not common to Nigerian alone. African leaders are evil including your presidents with an exception of the great Nelson Mandela.

Nigeria isn't even the most hardworking immigrants in the Neither are they the most hardworking in Africa..

Ghana and kenya is more hardworking than Nigeria...

the problem with you Nigerians is too much ego, you think you're you're good when you're not...

No wonder the country is in a complete mess...

GoodIsGod:
Did you just say Gambia of all places?

Go back and read my post. I said I have travelled wide in Africa. So I just gave you an instance. If you expect me to start typing my experience in Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso, Ghana , South Africa etc. Then, you are not smart at all.

You must be a kid still sucking mama's boobs. So, you can run off and take some more breast milk.

Go and ask Americans and they will tell you how smart and hardworking Nigerians are.

Nigerians constitute most educated group in US

Go and do your research on the net.

Even a toddler knows that the reason why Nigerians run to the U.S to study is because
- the country is shit....
- they want to work abroad
- gives them bragging power in the country

Nigerians are always looking for route to escape the country after destroying the country with their own hands...

and to cover up they claim smart and hardworking..

whereas they're been ruled by cows...

no one sees nigerians as smart and hardworking as you claim they only see nigerians as scammers....

Nigerians arent even the smartest or most hardworking in africa yet...its south africa

GoodIsGod:
Stay in your village and be assuming things.

If you have travelled out of Nigeria, you would be proud to be a Nigerian. They tell you to your face that you are smart and brilliant people.
More reasons most African countries are envious of us. It is true some are crooks among us but Nigerians are smart and strong will people.

I have not travelled outside of Africa but I have travelled wide in Africa and I know what I am saying.

I took a Taxi drop in Gambia (Drop is called Town Trip in Gambia) The Driver said to me.
"Are you a Nigerian?"
"Yes," I said.
"You guys are smart and intelligent," he said.
"Why did you say so?" I asked.
"It shows all over you guys. Even in the way you walk. You are always in a hurry, You are never sluggish and you are mostly successful," He said.
"Wait I will show you a Nigerian in the crowd," he added.
We got to one of their busiest and biggest markets. Serekunda Market. As he drove he said, "look, look at that guy. He is a Nigerian. You see the way he moves among the crowd?"
I laughed so hard because he was right. The guy is a Nigerian. We know ourselves in the country. While other people in crowd were slow and sluggish, that guy was moving left and right, walking as if he was about to be late for an interview.

Several other instances I can't type here.

Young guy, be proud of your Nation. Naija is great. You won't appreciate until you leave the shores of Nigeria.

With good leaders, we will be a great Nation the Europeans and Americans will envy.

That's my piece of cake for you.

Trash.. is this how you come to the conclusion that Nigeria is great No research, stats or nothing.. if they're so smart they wont be tropping in to other advanced countries.. wait, it's even ordinary GAMBIA that is making you talk this bullshit, please close that your mouth

writeprof:
You're absolutely right about the Nigerian spirit. That's what engender envy and jealousy from some other Africans. But many love Nigerians and our-can-do spirit.

there is nothing like Nigerian spirit... nor do they have a can do spirit...

they're too relaxed and always wait for God to fight their battles for them...hence the country is in shatters...

Wotoporiously speaking

Na Nigeria spoil Nigerians

We be naturally good people but the factors that affect us negatively and positively they play their part on us individually, normally this would have been the sweetest country on earth with no natural disaster or unnecessary billings from government n co.

But we still dey survive to show you say we are born fighters, our endurance knows no bound.

I can't even name up to 3 countries that knows how to endure difficult times like Nigerians, just imagine say na another country get the kind president wey we get by now world war z go don happen tey tey.

Nigerians are blessed people but the Nigeria in it is doing anyhow.

because no country will be stupid enough to vote in cows and keep quiet when they're been maltreated by the very own govt they campaigned and voted for.. cowardise isnt strength..

Nigerians are plain cowards..

Ekugbeh:
I always say this, Nigerians are the best race you can ever find in earth

Please tell me another Joke

KanuSE:
When you meet a good Nigerian you have in deed met an angel.

unfortunately there is no good nigerian...

WORKING & LIVING WITH NIGERIANS ABROAD

Being a Ghanaian, I’ve had this bad impression about Nigerians. I grew up in Ghana thinking Nigerians were negative energies around anyone. I was literally brainwashed mostly by the media to see Nigerians as thieves, murderers, scammers, etc. But after 6 years of working and associating with Nigerians outside of Ghana, the following are what I’ve found and discovered about them. I’m writing this not because my best friend back in the UK is a Nigerian, and not because my senior manager and team lead at my present employer are Nigerians. This is my honest observation!

Arguably, if you put the average Ghanaian and a Nigerian under the same conditions and environment, the Nigerian would undoubtedly outperform the Ghanaian. They are bold, smart and have this relentless quest and effort for learning and perfecting their craft. What a Nigerian cannot do does not exist. I started a DevOps Engineering program for a career alternative and Nigerians especially their women from different career fields constitute about 60% of the class. I was scared to take this step—to move from risk management to pure IT but I was shocked to see Nigerians in nursing, HR, journalism, sales, etc here in Canada taking on the challenge. I quickly reached out to most of my Ghanaian friends but none seem to be interested. This is a fortune field in IT….and when I asked these Nigerians why many of them are here, they told me “this is the surest way to make money by doing less”. Truth is, if you’re starting anything abroad and there’s no Nigerian in it, just know that that thing has no promise ��. A Nigerian wouldn’t attempt what doesn’t bring any monetary gain or value to them!

I’ve noticed that a Nigerian wouldn’t lie to you unless they’re scared of you or stand to gain something exceedingly beneficial from doing so. This confirms why the most genuine and honest folks I’ve ever associated with outside of Ghana are Nigerians. When a Nigerian is sharing an opportunity with you, they disclose everything dito-dito. They withhold nothing—they tell you as it is. My people would give you a half information and still be all over the place saying that they’ve helped you. You have no idea how many Ghanaians have made themselves demi-gods out here because they’ve been here for ages and feel everything must be ran through them. If you don’t go their way, you’re a target for gossip!

A Nigerian sees an opportunity in every situation, and it cuts across. They’re mostly interested in building a sustainable business than for a quick profit. This explains why wherever there are both Ghanaian and Nigerian traders, the Nigerian merchandise would cost less than the Ghanaian—even if they have the same suppliers. I see that here in Calgary at the various African markets.

Show me any work environment or office without a Nigerian and I’ll show you a work that’s less fulfilling and rewarding. The energy around Nigerians is positive and motivating. Nothing scares them than failure so they work hard for success because success is greatly celebrated in their culture. Where I come from, if you’re making any progress, there’s 100% chance you’ll lose 99% of your friends—they’ll spread lies about you out of dislike. Some would also attribute your progress to things other than your personal efforts. “You see that girl, she’s being chopped by so so and so person. You see that guy, he’s an occult. You see that guy, he’s rushing in life. Etc”. Your own family would turn themselves into avowed enemies—praying to see you fail so that they’ll use you as a bad example like “you see that guy, he was rushing in life but see how he’s crushed like a fragile glass.” My people have a long way to go. They must know that it’s okay for anyone irrespective of age to be great at what they do. In fact, people can build a fortune at age 40 or less through genuine means. Let’s inhale some positivity!

We glorify timidity, ignorance and sycophancy as signs of humility but Nigerians encourage boldness, assertiveness and being daring. If there’s a Nigerian in your trade or profession, get closer, you’ll learn a lot from them. I’ve learned a lot from my association with them and I’m always grateful for having one as my direct supervisor at work!

lol this are words from a povert and an inferior person.

abegi shift from road before i brush you

deavicky:
you can't even comprehend what you read. I think I'm wasting my time here.

im the one wasting my time talking to a dull criminal like you... you should be thankful im even talking to you... bullshit

deavicky:
what are u even saying. You can never be a white man irrespective of that u do . You are still a black man do allow inferiority complex turn you to something else. The white are no way different from u. It is just ur mind set.

says a black man who wants to be rich so he can commit crime and get away with it... when your counterparts in the west are creating a futuristic world... black man will forever be inferior to the whites in everything, the whites are ahead of you blacks in everything

deavicky:
you think it's about my heart or what is happening in the country?. Irrespective of any country or anywhere you are, you can not even be as peaceful as I am. Regard regretting being blackman is not because what the black man do but inferiority complex is ur problem.

No its because of the way they think... No wonder your politicians rape you guys silly in the a** hole.. I'm a white man by heart...

deavicky:
you can commit any crime and go away with it.

wow heart of a black man is wicked... i regret been a black man

koning:
You've said it all. Nothing more to add. You even exaggerated the insurance. I pay N5,000 a year, 3rd party.

I don't have any need whatsoever to live in the West again. Been there for close to 30 yrs.

With money, Nigeria is best.

which country did you live in for 30 years? and what do you do for a living to claim nigeria is best

oluwaseyi0:
using same Nigeria as a case study, imagine over 100 million Nigerians having guns.

what do you think will happen to ordinary Lagos road rage when everyone has gun? cases that should have ended with "do you know who I am'' will now end with either or both parties going to the mortuary, any and everybody is a walking dead at every point, and we will all need bulletproof vests to step out in Lagos

personal vendettas will be the order of the day, how many shootings has personal individual foil compared to the number of people dying from mass shooting

this will leave us with only security and professional criminals having guns, at least one bored dude won't just wake up and kill tens

if guns are legalized, criminals will simply get grenades and RGP, are we going to legalize grenades too to counter outlaw

A responsible, modern and fast security is the more reliable way to combat outlaws rather than relying on untrained and unstable civilians to do the delicate work of security personnel

you talk like a stark illiterate... everyone has knifes in their house, why arent they using it to kill each other...

wait even cutlass, why arent people using it to kill each other

BennyDGreat:
I don't agree....and it's based on the facts

chukkystar:

while Nigeria has highest rate of insurgency,
army robber's,
kidnappers,
boko haram,
Fulani herdsmen....
Hunger

Suicide is preventative with therapy and right measures

but please how do you prevent all the above I mentioned. Even buhari your president has no idea

sukkot:
you totally wrong about dat. only politicians who spend the peoples money do that madness. all rich people who make their own hard earned money go see private doctors in nigeria. dont mistake kleptocrats for rich nigerians now. and it seems you are not aware that we have medical helicopters now ? gurl yo ass being away from the country too long you done lost touch with reality

Just stop it okay...don't even compare health care abroad to Nigeria....

private doctors my foot...a normal hospital in the us will beat this hospital you uploaded in terms of equipments and medical facilities...

MrCuteking:
You nailed it bro.
In terms of corruption, you can also bypass long queues even when you come late.

Some estates have started running 24hours power supply using gas generator.

For those earning in dollars, they enjoy the exchange rate. Omo life is somehow sweet staying here, honestly.

Then ask yourself why politicians and billionoares always japa since life is sweet here...

chukkystar:
If You are Wealthy and an Introvert, Nigeria is Paradise. Just mind Ur Business and grow jejely

SPAMBOX7:
Too much enjoyment full this country if you got a few racks

1. You will run from pussy ( tho most of them be leeches. But you can still be exposed to the ones with something to bring to the table)
2. You will be respected anywhere you go (yes money brings power and respect and power goes hand in hand)
3. You can set up a business and become a boss in less than a month and the ROI will be massive
4. You can get away with lots of things you can't get away with in saner climes. All you have to do is give one two people in charge a few bucks
5. You can live in any environment full of elites and connect with prominent people e.g Ikoyi, Banana, Maitama etc
6. Things are way cheaper compared to yankee.
Etc

The only cons is you gonna attract leeches whether you like it or not. You won't know who love/ respect you for you but if you a sharp guy you will always know where to place who

Too much enjoyment yet all politicians and billionoares japa at the speed of light... Abi you get money pass politicians

[quote author=JBArokonkwo1 post=119442599][/quote]God bless you you said it all.. Nigerians have very low iq, they can't reason properly again thry see suffering as a way of life...

Although I still wonder why Nigerians are trooping to other countries if they can enjoy everything here .. hypocrites
