Global business magazine, Bloomberg has ranked Nigerians working in the United States as the eighth most hardworking foreigners in that country.

In a 2018 report released yesterday, Nigerians scored 71.0 percent in the list of the hardest and most skilled immigrant groups in the US which was topped by Ghana with 75.2 percent.

Bulgaria and Kenya were ranked second and third with 74.2 percent and 73.4 percent respectively. Other African countries in the report’s top 10 are Ethiopia (4th), Egypt (5th), and Liberia (9th).

This makes Africans in general the most productive immigrants in the US ahead of those from Mexico and Central America, who constitute more than 70 percent of foreign nationals in that country.
Mexico is by far the most common country of origin, but the population of Mexican immigrants in the U.S. (both documented and undocumented) actually fell 6 percent from 2007 to 2015, according to the Pew Research Centre.
The numbers of Salvadorans, Hondurans and Guatemalans in the U.S. continued to grow.

“If we want more high-skilled, hardworking, English-speaking, ready-to-integrate immigrants, it looks like the most obvious place to find them is in African countries where English is widely spoken,” Bloomberg journalist Justin Fox, who came up with the report, said.
The report, developed from the 2016 US Census Bureau American Community Survey, ranked Nigeria 8th among the Most-Educated Immigrant Groups in the U.S.
Nigeria sandwiched between Australia (7th) and Malaysia (9th).
The report put the number of Nigerian legal immigrants in the U.S. at 262,603.
According to the report, Kenya, Nigeria, Nepal and Ghana have the highest number of citizens pursuing higher education in the US after Saudi Arabia.
Immigrants from Kenya, Nigeria and Ghana are near the top in both employment-population ratio and higher-education enrollment, it said.

We dey hustle die... What we are used to as chores and normal routine here earns wages over there so why we no go comfortably run am as hustle... A white man sees chores as work, a black man sees it as part of home training.. A white man sees menial jobs as hardship whether it pays or not but a black man sees it as hustle so long as it pays..

Simple Say igbo ranked 8th most hardworking foreigners in us.

We know afonjas are lazy that is why when ever they hear about been on their own as a country they will begin cry one niger area.

We all know aboki no dey travel,waitin he dey travel do when baba dey wey go dey give an free food.


Nb:carrying drugs is better than skull mining and bombing people.

I'll have to hold my hands up and concede the first spot to Ghanaians on this one!

Those guys can work like they have two extra arms and legs more than everyone else!

All thanks to Dr. Bukola Saraki, Senate President of the 8th Senate

The entire lawmakers @NASS

And we hardworking Nigerians @Diaspora

There's no future for a lazy man and in the school of success, there's no vacancy for laziness

If your certificate can't put food on your table, then tear it or put in in your wardrobe

Think and get your hand busy with something productive

Productivity is very lucrative

Lucrative things attract huge monetary rewards

Monetary rewards can make you a billionaire

Life of an expatriate is not an easy one

Especially when one lives in the US

We are always busy with something

Not leaving aside our students

From going to Microsoft to present a mind blowing speech to going to the white house to see the President

No damn time for unhealthy political campaign

This country is a zoo, they never appreciate what they have. even a qualified first class graduate finds it impossible to get an average job.. what else do you expect?..

baba must go

If is about nigerians committing crimes in US,they will rush here and start ranting how igbos are destroying the image of their country,as if their country get image.
Tell them to allow igbos to go,they will begin cry one niger area.

But surely dem boku for Saudi Arabia and Sudan....that one no follow for diaspora?

We for naija we dey work sha ...morning till night den I come go US and you come tell me say make I work you go pay me dollars every hour eeeeeeeeh.



Dem go hear am ...

Igbos dominate Nigerian diaspora population in the US just like Yorubas dominate Nigerian diaspora in the UK.

since buhari assumed office,Nigerian youth doubled their hustling

chai buhari it can never be well with you oooooo

Those are Nigerians doing legitimate businesses and not those drug traffickers tarnishing the name of the country worldwide.

On the other hand, some disillusioned crew will be claiming Nigeria now, and not Biafra again.

Me looking at buhari ryt now : na me u dey call lazy youth??....ehn?...ehn??

Lol na joke i dey oo b4 i go jus lost

Really

One thing that Marvels me most is,after all these hard working in abroad they still have nothing to show ..80% of houses, lands,malls, properties, investments,businesses in nigeria are owned by people residing in Nigeria. Only 1.1% investment here are owned by Nigerians in UK,Germany, and so called USA then 17.9% are owned by our Able G boys in Asia.

Please who can help me explain the reason behind this abracadabra

mrbaba18:

They said hard working people, they didn't say drug pushers.

horsepower101:
Igbos dominate Nigerian diaspora population in the US just like Yorubas dominate Nigerian diaspora in the UK.

Give us the actual numbers and the source of your data and not some fictitious claim.

Empty boasting and vain chest-beating is ingrained into some people DNA. Little wonder that adage say “empty barrel makes the loudest of noise.”

Igbos are the 8th most hardworking people in USA...

I refer to my other post

When Nigerians relocate they live and act how normal human beings would hence their potential shows

But unfortunately the politicians kill this potential with how appalling they make the country for them

.

Probably we suppose to rank first...Proudly Nigerian.
