Not really possible. You know that they constitute about 10% of the population combined. Seventy percent of that is the Maghrebi/North Africans.
The base isn't large enough to force the exponential growth needed to eclipse the Causasian segment. Remember in math we learned about "e".the limit of continuous compounding is 2.71. without a mass visa bonanza and active border laxity, there isn't much that even the Algerians (largest foreign contingent) can so demographically.
There's physical, administrative and political barriers.
When you consider the birth rate of the Foreigners/migrants in France, you'll consider the possibility of what I said.
jacobs2015: Someone on this forum said something sometimes ago that still get me thinking till date. He said, "it's like some of us in this world just follow some people come".
See what we can do for hours and free during our secondary school days now being sought after with billions of naira.
Africa is a dream killing land and destiny restructurer.
Many parents were also part of the football dream killing machine of African youths. They never thought football would be one of the highest paying professions in the World today.
Why will you be playing ball when your mates are reading for common entrance, waec, neco and jamb?
If they had thought of registering their kids at football academies, they would be reaping the benefits today
Coup Plotters in Niger Republic said that Nigerian President Bola Tinubu, Is NOT a legitimate President because the credibility if the election that brought him as president is being questioned. That’s why the coup plotters in Niger Republic do not regard his Statement as the ECOWAS chairman.

Testiebobo: *TRUE LIFE STORY* One day, i was very broke and had no cash on me. And I needed the cash to buy food stuffs in my hostel. However, my close friend introduced me to one group on FACEBOOK, and he told me that the group do give 30k to any new member in the group. I was so glad to hear the good news and I told my friend to send me the link of the group and he did so. To cut the story short, I joined the group and applied for the gift. However, I received the shockest moment of my life when one of the gp moderator told me that if I wanted the gift, I should pierce letter "X" on my "GBOLA" and send the picture of the scar before receiving the gift. I will nt mention the name of the group for my own safety but its name starts with "W" and ends with "H" . Pls share dis post and be careful on the type of group you join on any socialmedia. NOT ALL GIVEAWAYS ARE FREE, SOMETHING MIGHT BE ATTACHED TO THEM
Your Gbola and destiny is precious ooo
You should have posted the name of the Facebook page since Nairaland is an anonymous forum to make other Nigerians aware of such groups on social media and careful. Its important.
BetterHeadline: A young muslim man was arrested in UP's Barabanki on Friday as he walked to the police station with the severed head of his sister, who he killed over her relationship, police said.
What does it cost the Government of Edo State to patch those extremely bad portions of the Federal roads in Edo State? Imagine a whole Governor swimming inside mud and water because its a Federal road and they're not ashamed. They're still the ones who use the roads more than other citizens of the nation.
Wike of Rivers state did his best to repair FG roads in Rivers state. Besides they're the ones still using it according to Bola Tinubu.
I think the FGN should just hands off the construction of all Federal Roads to States. Let every State be responsible for the roads within their domain, since they want FG to be doing everything.
It may probably be a typo error since its on digital screen. It happens sometimes in churches and conferences using projectors and big TV screens. However, when it is noticed, they usually correct it.
But this one, it is more than likely that the typist is an Aboki from Shettima's village who got appointment in the IT unit of the Presidential villa.
Truvelisback: Good day, fellas. I'm just curious. Have you ever tasted breast milk as an adult? If yes, what is it like? Is the taste different from the normal milk we buy?😏
When your wife is breast feeding, tell her to give you to taste.
Why is almost every post on Nairaland becoming tribally ethnicised against Igbos and Peter Obi? I don't think any Nigerian that is Igbo will want to be part of this forum with the level of disdain shown towards them here. I salute any Igbo man that is part of Nairaland.
This whole write up looks fake. Its very shallow. Besides, building a mono rail in Iraq will cost more than than that coz of its desert terrain.
Which one is Transglobim bla bla bla. Sounds like all these 419 companies they used to sell Murtala Mohammed Airport to two different companies by an Igbo man some years ago
Honda Accord car price always drops drastically after a year of production. It may sell for 18 million or less next year like the 2020 model. Only an impatient person will buy it at such price now.
