I am surprised that African-americans are doing ways better than Nigerians in academics.I used to think that African-americans were lazy,stupid,etc......I was wrong!

Stop comparing tiny Botswana to Nigeria, you i d i o t. The place you show on the video is not even better than Abuja, a city in the country.

Ilove twanas people very much and I wish they had a lot of mineral ressources (oil,gas,....etc ).They would do a fantastic job with them.

Not bad,but I have seen ways better than her in congo!Actually,I think that pure bantu women have the prettiest faces in Africa.The only thng they lack is height.

The only black Africans who can stick their A**es up and be arrogant are the tswanas people(Botswana).They went from being one of the most backward countries in the world to the richest(per capita) and the least corrupt country in Africa.They built everything from scratch and really care for their people.Until Nigeria can be like botsana,there is no reason for Nigerians to be boastful.

you can single it down to artists, Nigeria is the music capital of Africa.

Bollywood is now no. 2 globally and has drown attention from all over the globe....FACT.

Which part of Africa are Nigerians dominating? Seems you got fast forwarded in time from last century.

Nigeria has the highest concentration of millionaires and billionaires in Africa.

Nigeria is also the spiritual headquarters of Africa. With the synagogue morphing into a pilgrimage status latlely.

Our artists are household names in many African counties.

We have the biggest economy in Africa
And the largest market.

The entire region of west Africa is dominated by Nigerian firms, banks and entrepreneurs.

Man, speak from facts and patch your leaking emotions.

I thought you're a man!!!!

Nigeria is the biggest economy in Africa by the virtue of its population and not coz Nigerians are the smartest.If we judge things per capita,I am pretty sure Nigeria wont be among the top 20 economies in Africa.Can you tell me why is Nigeria economy in troubles right now,whereas countries like Kenya,ethiopia .....etc are growing?You don't seem to be able to make a distinction between talent and success:Nigerian artists are successful but they aren't talented!Idem for the nollywood personel!Who told you that Nigeria has the highest concentration of billionaires and millionnaires?

isan:
Nigerians don't give a damn about other african countries cos we are superior to dem




Every african will do anything just to get waka pass role in nollywood

Any artiste in africa is ready to do anything to feature 2face, p,squre or DBanj

Nigerians dominate every part of africa

Outside africa any black man d white see is a nigerian

Deal with it or hug tranformer

Sorry man,Nollywood isn't the best exemple of African creativity!Just by decency,I wont call it a disgrace!Tuface,P SQUARE....etc aren't that talented considering they are singing in English.Had they really been talented,they would be up there with the likes of jay z...etcWhich parts of Africa are Nigerians dominating?I must confess that I admire a group of Africans:The Ethiopians!
They are very low key yet efficient and are doing good things with few natural ressources.

ladionline:
The Nigeria superiority complex derived from the blessed assurance of the upbringing of the Nigerian child. Your radar pick it everywhere that 9ja is the most blessed country in the world and that there is nothing Nigerians may want to do that they can not do. How do you start to question that as a child? You grow up singing and humming 'everything e dey for Nigeria ooo' Foreigners on the street says the same thing. You just become it naturally. 9ja is a great country. But we use neighbouring country to spite our leaders.

Really?So why are Indians and lebaneses behaving in Nigeria as if they own the land?Why are Nigerians being beaten up to death in india yet your politicians and celebrities go die in india hospitals?Is that your definition of superiority complex?

TerryCarr:
yes of course their is variation but for the most part you can tell if some one is from south Sudan (majority of nilotics) because they look different from most niger-congo groups like you can tell someone is from Somalia or is a Khoisan.

but anyway here is a diverse look at the nilo Saharans/nilotics

There is a lot of diversity in south sudan!

LOL @ deplete my self-confidence. I can see you are not very familiar with Somalis, we don't lack in the confidence department, and just so you know Haile Gebrselassie is Ethiopian.
Have you seen the Kenyan long distance runners though? Their thighs are the size of my wrists.
What I gather from your post is that you want me to post pictures of 'good-looking' Somali men... Don't know if you're male or female but I don't swing that way, and I don't comment on the looks of men, so I'd advise you to search for them on Google.

I know that Somalis appear to be self confident,even though they are quiet an insecure lot.I just wanted to say that,like Indians,somalis will find it very hard to break into global football or basketball coz the genetics aren't in their favorThey might need some affirmative action scheme to get even with other races.Football is totally different from long distance races.
I don't want you to post pics of goodlooking Somalis men coz I already know how the average Somali man looks like.Being a pure bantu duh I no b@ttyboy by the way.I just thought these guys look too ugly to be horners,consideriing that horners claim to be the best looking people in the world.
By the way is haile Selassie really Ethiopian?I was shifting between Somali or dinka!

ArtanK:
Why not? All we need is peace and stability all over Somalia, the Somali football association to set up bases and academies all around the country and proper talent management. Right now, the only teams that receive funding are Mogadishan teams.
That's taking nothing away from the immense talent that is Samuel Eto'o, I am a huge fan.

Bro,I am not trying to deplete your self confidence,but can you admit that it is an uphill task?Look at these two rich and famous Somali geez below and see how they are skinny,looking unhealthy...and pretty ugly Dyou think that something can be done about these guys genetics or do you agree that it is a lost cause?Can a rich and tasty bantu cuisine be helpful in this case?

ArtanK:
This guy... When has Kikuyus ever mixed with Somalis and Ethiopians? You're making it sound like there were mass intermarriages in Kenya. We've never mixed with the Kikuyu.
Furthermore take a look at the greatest footballers, past & present. The best footballers are not bulky as you're suggesting. Maradona, Romario, Pele, Platini, Del Piero and many other legends were quite small. Today we have small players like Messi, Hazard, David Silva, Oscar and Neymar making a big name for themselves. Even Eto'o who's a Cameroonian is on the skinny side and he's only 5ft10 feet above the ground. It all comes down to talent and proper training facilities.

A Somali football team would be a very funny thing to watch!Quite challenging in terms of special needs arrangements Are you sure that Somalis can produce this type beloww?

Mind you.I am for Africa unity Arent we all brothers and sisters?

@blackenichi
There is definitely a bantu look which is totally distinct from any other look in Africa.And the bantus genetics have been shown to be significantly different from the west Africans or the horners genetics.So it doesn't make sense to say that bantus are genetically west Africans.For sure,as Africans,we must have something in common.But to think that all Africans are the same is a fallacy.Moreover,as I already put it,I don't fancy the mixed bantus at all:I find them neither attractive nor physically fit!When you try to melt together a Somali look with a bantu look,the result is a weak individual with a "rat" face ;DIs that to look good?
Find me west Africans or east Africans who look like the bantus below:

all these guys have the signature bantu face!

BlackKenichi:
Exactly! There is no such thing as typical Bantu features. When the Bantu Expansion took place (about 4000 years ago) they met and assimilated different African peoples. This is why there isn't a unified bantu look and bantus can even be distinguished genetically as well. The Bantus in East Africa have a lot of Cushitic (they used to occupy as far as Southern Tanzania) and Nilotic (like in Uganda and Western Kenya) admixture. The Bantus around the Central African rainforest absorbed quite a bit of "Pygmy" genetics. Southern African Bantus have a lot of Khoisan/Bushmen genes.


Bantus are genetically West African.

Bantus aren't west Africans!Dont claim what doesn't belong to you! There is a classical bantu phenotype(the congo phenotype) and I can pick a Congolese person among any group of Africans.If anything,mixing with so many other races ,has destroyed bantus uniqueness.By heavily mixing with cushites and nioltics,the eastern bantus (kikuyus,luyas,bugandas...) have lost a lot in terms of good genes.There is no genetic benefits for a bantu to mix with a Somali,a Fulani,a Nilotic....And this is mostly noticeable with men:The kikuyus men for example are ways weaker than the Congolese or the camerounese men.They cant even produce a decent footballer ;DThis is a result of mixing with masais,somalis,ethiopians......And even in terms of beauty,the eastern bantus cant no longer produce splendid specimens like congo or cameroun people do.

There is no way eastern bantus can produce these type of people.Really sad!
