as funny as it may sound some of them think africa is jus one place. like no countries in it.
the other time i was chatting on a foreign and when i introduced my sef as an african from Nigeria, they were asking me if nIGERI is the capital of Africa.....

Laugh won kill me....

THIS POST and the OP tell us why the average African is extremely low on the the IQ ladder. Any attempt to pander to the interest of gullible people has always been successful in this part of the world.

We should use that to our advantage and shock em with springing development.

When I describe this generation as a monumental waste ,everyone bashes me.

THE SAME WESTERNERS WROTE THE HISTORY OF AFRICA THAT MOST OF YOU BARELY READ TODAY. IS IT SAD THAT THE AVERAGE NIGERIAN TODAY DOES NOT KNOW THE HISTORY OF HIS OWN COUNTRY ? IS THERE A NIGERIAN ALIVE TODAY WHO DOES NOT HAVE A MISCONCEPTION ABOUT OTHER TRIBES ?

Living in trees. Lool I laughed out loud

One once asked where I'm from, I said Africa he asked who the president of Africa was...

you should have told that one that the President of Africa is Nelson Mandela. At least they know that name....

When they here Africa

Aids
Begging for food
Sleeping with monkey(they say that is how we contact hiv and ebola
Begging for money
Killing each other
Having low IQ
Our women look like male
We are not civilized
We can't rule our selves
We are destructive in nature
We're easily manipulated.


Some of these are true but does not apply to everyone.

Most impression they have is just what we give them.

Tchaka is now the President

What kind of image do we portray to them in our movies, news and online?

That's the kinda perception they would have about you.

Due to the high level of scam emanating from Nigeria, if you are proposing a business to a white man from Nigeria, the first thing that comes to his mind is, this could likely be a con man masqurading as a legit business man.

From that moment, his guard is on 24/7.

Africa, we are our own undoing

If our government provides Job and improve the standard of living,people won't scam. South Africa is paying their tertiary students certain fee every month. If our government can do that,scamming will stop. Until then,it can't be eradicated.

Baratheon:
This was a long time ago but not anymore.

Don't be ignorant. Wake up.

sdindan:
They are foolish.

Especially the Americans.

They think Africa is a country

Some will visit Congo you will see him shout I went to Africa.

Congo is an African country now.

What three words come to mind when you think of Africa?

Let ur being learned put food on the table na

I will rather be knowledgeable than be an ignorant fool. No wonder African and Asian immigrants are the ones doing most of the developmental work and now the westerner are crying fowl. Now you should know why they say Ignorance is a disease.

Family guy has an episode about our great African princes, Nigerians to be precise.

the shoes part is also correct. doubt it? here's a lyric from a popular song by American rapper, The game -- "better days"

"I'm from a block where niggas gotta keep the gun cocked
and kids wear dre beats to stop the sound of gun shots
but at least they got the dre beats, cos "kids in Africa ain't even got shoes on their feet"!

No one is saying u shouldn't be educated.. With all the degree we have in the country, how have we helped ourselves? Why do we have to travel out to develop their country.. And u say the westerners are crying fowl, rather they are looking for a way to send immigrants from their country

The downfall of these western countries will be that they are less interested in learning about others than others are learning about them. Call it lack of proper education and preoccupation with oneself, you are still on point.

They see themselves as superior to other people, even the Chinese until lately, and that has helped China to usurp them at the global stage because Chinese know more about them than they do China.

So it is the same with Africa, this should be an advantage for us only if we can capitalize on it.

No 8. They think Africa is a country

Caucasian are so arrogant and egocentric. They too should be expose and stop having a skeptic perception of other race

Olatara:
Congo is an African country now.

They don't know about Congo.

What d know is Africa.

When Westerners hear Nigeria...they hold their wallets/purses tight
Nigerians producing scammers and yahoo boys since independence
If you doubt me google “Nigerian Prince”

peacettw:
Most of the westerners are uneducated when it comes to learning anything pertaining to other countries. I actually do believe that majority of them still do think this way. You forgot one more thing, they assume that every African who comes to their country is a prince or from royalty.

You're very correct! Especially Americans.

There are host of illiterates and uniformed in US who know next to nothing about anything beyond their immediate environment..
Donald Trump is a typical example. That is why he could describe Africans countries as a shit hole .

They know nothing, they only rely on whatever they are fed with by their media.

Ever8054:
that was long time ago not now,....

You would be surprised. Even the ones that seem enlightened. One was asking me the other day about animals, saying "you get to see a lot of animals right?" I answered "Just as much as you can at the zoo".
