This is not a rant, but they are fond of sentences like ,'ordinary Kenya, 'Cameroon of all countries', 'monkey' when referring to their neighbors? Etc .'

Well coming from the most populous African-black country on earth, I'm very disappointed. Thank u

We are blessed,prosperous and developing. Its only natural for people to hate us. This guy who made this post is one of em'. Its either he's not Nigerian or he's a Nigerian with no sense of pride. Nigerians dont have a superiority complex dude, you're the one with an inferiority complex. Deal with it.

Don't know where they get it from. They like to belittle other african countries. When you stand up to them then they will begin their usual rant.

They hate us
They hate us we have swag
They hate us because we are rich
They hate us because we are stealing all their women.

true talk Bro. It's very bad. You have to respect everyone for who they are. We all got different characters but must try to adapt. Because eg Morocco people are quiet and you don't often hear news about them. Does it make the dumb and easy to run over.?? Some people are just cool.. . But don't push it.

A thread of Jan 2014 just making front page...Interesting.
@Topic: OP,the issue is that,an average Nigerian basically believes that we are far ahead of any other African country: in reasoning; smartness; in human and natural resources, in wealth (economy-wise),etc.We believe our level of civilization is beyond the african continent.Therefore,they have nothing to learn from other African countries ; they have no reason to compete with other African countries...
My opinion

Rant is cheap. Provide some examples of how and why you r more civilized, smarter and more enterprising than other african countries. I am waiting

@OP, this problem isn't isolated to Nigeria. It is a problem of the Negroid race. The average Blackman doesn't like the next Blackman and would rather sell him to the white man. Try speaking to an African outside Nigeria and see how much they detest Nigeria and Nigerians. These things ought not to be so but it is what it is. I'm not holding brief for Nigerians and our perceived arrogance but my point is that the problem is deeply rooted in our race, sadly so.

Fellow Africans secretly admire Nigerians' confidence. Despite the hating.

Like typical 9ja man, I don't strive to be liked. I just want respect for my abilities and what I have to contribute.
Moreover, dignity is my entitlement as a human being. I don't condone anyone messing with it.

Hating, bad belle & gossip is the headache of those who do it. I don't give a damn.

Loool.

Brev, it's good to be proud and patriotic but stop flattering yourself - Nigeria isn't an intellectual property and there's absolutely no impeccable record for anyone to envy, apart from a few high flying individuals. Maybe, impeccable record in scams/fraud and naija Churches scattered all over the planet - who knows? grin

The earlier Nigerians start telling themselves the truth, the better for us all. The only reason why folks notice Nigerians everywhere is because of the huge population explosion. Outside that, there's nothing to be proud of. Even the ol'good Super Eagles have now gone bust! grin

Big ups to naij - but someone has to say the truth, no matter how bitter it's.

U act like Nigerians are the only arrogant ones

I have been discriminated for just being Nigerian without pple knowing who i really am

I remember when I and my kenyan friend were discussing with one Cameroonian B1tch, the cameroonian girl said a Naija slang and I was like u Naija girl playfully. .And she was like pls, pls am not Nigeria in disgust! that was rude

Ghanaians also think they are the most well mannered pple on earth especially the women. .every little thing upsets them

Africans in general are very proud!

Pertaining to Ghanaians it's the truth, we are the most well mannered group of people to step on this earth. It's a trait everyone in the world accepts.

Well from my personal point of view, I personally developed my superiority complex because I know who I am in christ. 2. I want the whites to believe that they are in no way superior to black man, they can switch off their brain I give no damn who they are.

And this is what's keeping Nigerians above those beasts that call themselves racists. Nigerians don't see other neibouring fellow blacks as inferior but they need to see themselves as on no way second fiddle to the white men. They are just products of opportunities, I can bet it with you, there is nothing special about white men. Their shi.ts smell worse than black man's.

Anytime I'm outside Africa, I'm always proud to tell them I'm a Nigerian. Especially when I'm in non English speaking European nation. I introduce myself in their shops and tell them what I want to buy. I give them big shi.ts when they look at me one kind after introducing myself.

Most of them did not even go to university as most Nigerians do. Some of them went to college and are good at what they do. So there's nothing special about them.

The only thing I pray we get right in Africa is leadership also loyalty. Once we are there, they will beg to trade with us. Look they gat nothing special than you, believe this and walk in your pride. Mother Africa has blessed her children.
