Was in the bulk room of a first generation bank and crowd was quite bad ( yet they say no money ).There were some igbo men that had come to deposit quite an amount of money and had been conversing loudly in their dialect not caring that they were been a nuisance.
All of a sudden a white man comes in and the teller receives his cash whilst ignoring the hisses and insults of customers.

The igbo men, trust them started insulting the man and went ahead to add more in their dialect,the white man then,calmly turnsto them and responded to them in IGBO language then went on to add a few more sentences... the whole bulk room kept shut out of shock of course.I turned to him in amazement to ask him on how he learnt igbo and he smiled and responded to me fluently in HAUSA.

Apparently, he had been there before every one else but the account number was wrong and he was told he couldnt make calls in the banking hall, he then went out to make a call and wait for the right account number.On his return,hE went straight to the teller as she had assured him that when he returned ,he wouldnt have to join the queue again.The teller should have explained to all instead of ignoring customers.

Any way my point is that these white men are smatter than us, they learn our languages so as to enable themselves settle in and do business whilst most of us go to their countries and come back the same people we were when we left if not worse.
I know they are smart, stop over stating d fact; its insulting. by d way their languages are mostly English in so many variations, Am sure u picked it up quickly enough in school......

Because we are too lazy to learn their language,when we come back from a country like Vietnam for instance,we Americanise our English or our local dialect .

The reason they are smarter on the AVERAGE is because of people like you; who bring down our average score.

You're simply being emotional here. It doesn't matter how you look at it, your standard of living, basic amenities, technological advancement, government, military, universities, environment, etc, confirm my assertions.

Wrong wrong wrong

Mention one road executed by a Nigerian contractor that stood the test of time

Just one.

And when you eventually find that contractor please tell me who the chief engineers, project managers and surveyors are

God gave all of us talent.....regardless of colour

As it stands today....dunno about tomorrow I think it's an unarguable fact that oyinbos have utilised theirs far better than us

Pls note that I don't say they are better than us

But THEY HAVE UTILISED THEIR TALENTS BETTER

Re: How A White Man Surprised All In The Bank by Acidosis(m): 8:42am On Nov 07, 2015
Good story but the moral of the story is wrong.

I expect you to pass this message across to Nigerian parents, especially the Yoruba race, who ban their children from speaking the local language.

A white man came to the country and he learnt two languages. Yet you see some Nigerians with names like Ajala, Aribisala, yet they cannot make a flawless and correct statement in Yoruba language.

The OP is a typical African.
Self defeatism before even before being challenged. Firstly, what do you mean by white man? Asians or Caucasians. That is a topic for another day. Now back to the topic; Language skills does not represent your level of intelligence. I know a lot of average Nigerian "barrack children" that speak 4 to 5 languages fluently. They can't even pass NECO or JAMB. Asians are generally known to be very smart. Chinese, Japanese, Indians etc. almost always speak and write only one language or two Max even up till the level of Professor. I lived for years in China so I can talk about this. I know many Nigerians that speak Mandarin fluently even to the extent of teaching. It is worthy to note here that it is not one piece of cake to write mandarin. English language has 26 alphabets but mandarin has over 6000 characters that just have to be memorized.
I can go on and on but the point am trying to make is that language skills alone cannot and should never be a criterion to judge your level of smartness. And to cap it up, some tribes in Nigeria still are scared of others speaking their language. The message to them is if you don't want others speaking your language, just obey these two simple rules. Don't document your language and don't intermarry.

LOL @ emotion. I am telling you a fact. There are plenty of super intelligent Nigerians who lumped with the rest (like you), brings our average intelligence score to the lowest of lows. Have you heard of AT LEAST one Nigerian who works for NASA; and can only come visit Nigeria with US Secret Service in tow? I am sure you haven't.

Secondly, you know how I know you help in lowering our intelligence score? You attributed the development of the cellphone entirely to Whites. Apparently you don't know how discoveries work. I can assure you, that in that AT&T lab where the idea became a concept, and concept became a real product, every continent (and race was well represented). It will get an Oyinbo face, but it took more than Oyinbo men to develop it. Read up on the story of Vivien Thomas if you want to know how discoveries work in real life (his Oyinbo boss "won" many awards based on his work - the work of a Black man): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vivien_Thomas .
