I don’t know if it is everywhere, but I am sure it is in Nigeria and it is an epidemic here.

Nigerians generally are hateful people, they like to convince themselves you don’t deserve any good in your life. If the good is already there, they’ll find a way to undermine it.

— They see a happy single woman, they convince themselves she must be sad and faking smiles.

— They see a happy married woman, they convince themselves the smile is for the gram. The husband must be an abusive cheat- he just has to be because they want him to be.

— They see a happy married man doing things for his family, he is a “simp”.

— You have a 2.1 and above, they will tell you numerous stories of people with “pass” working in Chevron. All this story is to undermine your hard work.

— You have First Class in Social Sciences? They’ll tell you to come try Engineering.

— You are young and doing well, they would convince themselves you are a yahoo boy or runs girl.

Now you see people deliberately trying to water down their success and good attributes. You see rich kids struggling to fit into the street. You see good looking men and women trying to convince you good looks doesn’t matter. They can’t even enjoy their wealth, qualifications and good looks in peace- because there is one angry Nigerian waiting to attack. They are always coming up with grass to grace stories, all to convince you they were and are still one of you.

Don’t even get me started on how the average Nigerian have deluded themselves into thinking they are experts at identifying REALNESS. To further seal their delusion- their definition of REAL happens to be that which makes them sleep better at night. A girl who drives a fine car, enjoying her parents years of labour is not real- but the one pounding palm fruit in her backyard is real. Not just real, but a WIFE MATERIAL, lol.

I laugh when people say, “I can never help Nairalanders, they are hateful…” My dear, no difference between Nairalanders and average Nigerians. It is not even a poor people thing, it is ingrained in most Nigerians to wish evil for another. They don’t want you to be finer than them, they don’t want you richer, they don’t want you smarter. There is an invisible benchmark they set for you and when it looks like you are above it, they become very restless.

It is full blown now because social media has provided anonymity- everyone can do/say whatever.

I pray these sets of Nigerians find true freedom. I can’t even imagine carrying that kind of load in my heart…

This is not even about Davido, but a trend I have observed- online and offline.

Fela Kuti - Shuffering and Shmiling

Every day my people dey inside bus
Suffering and smiling
Forty-nine sitting, ninety-nine standing
Them go pack themselves in like sardine
Them dey faint, them dey wake like cock
Them go reach house, water no dey
Them go reach bed, power no dey
Them go reach road, go-slow go come
Them go reach road, police go slap
Them go reach road, army go whip
Them go look pocket, money no dey
Them go reach work, query ready

Every day na the same thing
Every day na the same thing
Every day na the same thing
Every day na the same thing

[s]You can't munchup everything, hate for the rich kids is not same as hate for happy people or made hustlers. oyato sii ra'won.
Maybe the thread is not about davido, buh its certainly about the ObOs only, when people start downsizing timaya, olamide, wizkid achievement to background then we can address it as a general thing. adding to the narrative was the only way to feel among miumiu
aunty linda is fvcking rich, is there any similarity between how people hate on her compared to dj cuppy. @freemasonry i am not surprise you agreed with her, buh it only shows you don't have an indepth knowledge about your own topic.[/s]

It’s just as you said, they don’t want to see anyone doing better than them.

Btw, thank you for your Christmas largesse to nairalanders a few days ago.
