so a million out of 180 million means it is OK to generalize right? You are sick....black fools

I'm ashamed of being nigerian. They'd soon come here shouting "Racism!" Stupid people, thieves.
I was in the bar yesterday and overheard 3 boys boasting of a successful scam. Everyone, yes every single nigerian, desperate and evil. They would do anything for money.
Nigerians are so shameless, everything written up there is correct. Even the "begging for money" stuff. We see them parading nairaland everyday displaying their shameless begging proclivities. The other day, it was a Nigerian that went to Richard Quest's twitter page begging for 500 dollars. Just imagine.
Enter american forums, you'd be seeing stuffs like "call (+234..)" Nigeria numbers full there looking for who to scam.
I wish i could strip myself and my kids off this Nigerian nationality.

bishopkay:


We are still saying same thing from different angles and thank God you made mention of the phrase "saner climes"

Nigeria isn't yet a sane clime so instead of you roasting the young lady, take out your bile on the importers and producers of the logos and materials, the customs service that cleared and allowed them into the country and the authorities that allow them sell it openly with confidence.

Until you do this, attacking the lady would be hypocritical on your part because if those things weren't in the market for sale, she wouldn't have had access to them to produce her shoes in the first place

banmee:


Lol. Keep telling yourself that so you can feel better. Smh.

what is stopping you? go and lives in chad and get their citizenship

I agree with most, a lot of generalisation in the article. but guys, let us all be honest with ourselves. We are one terrible people. 80% of us are guilty of these things mentioned. We lie, we cheat, we take advantage. Hell just try to build a house and you will understand. The politicians arer not even better. The sooner we accept this and start to do something about it, the better the country image will get rather than attack the person writting this (because some of these things in the article is what most westerners think anyway).

TheVictorious:


How is it a hateful interview

enomakos:
we are better than those fucking Americans get it

sunnysunny69:
it's a stereotype blog with traffic aim. Nigerian not even in top ten of people going to jail in states, and again we are not in top 10 of people deported from USA. The question is would he get traffic mentioning Brazil or Ecuador ? Answer is nope, and besides they have embassy who will take him up. You can see the facts below yourself.

chiraqDemon:

How?
An average atheist american is more honest than a top christian priest.
Is it in average intelligence?
Is it in how much we love being orderly?
How and in what way are we better?
Even one village cannot stand the other from the same tribe talkless of inter tribal peace

We have all scammed somebody for something at one point in our lives. I read the post and realised that its true that the average nigerian is a savage and a criminal who would rather wait for govt to come and clean up the streets but would not hesitate to dump a used biscuit wrapper in the gutter. An average nigerian is a criminal who would jump at anu opportunity to get money even if its illegal. And most dont even care if they are caught. An average nigerian is a high level crook

TheLogicalMind:






You're quite right. One thing I can't stand in life is fake outrage. Nigerians lack the moral right to be outraged when someone chooses to abandon diplomatic niceities and decides to tell them a few home truths. If you guys show this much anger towards corruption itself, people like Robert Lindsey wouldn't have a willing audience listening to his views.

durentchigozie:
you're very stupid for quoting me. Just like your signature, your hearing is impaired indeed

fratermathy:
This post was made by a citizen of the US in his blog. I was really disturbed by it and thought to share here to see reactions. I'll also post some of the disturbing comments I saw. Please take your time to read it and comment on what you think. I have also boldened some of the important parts of the post.

mykelmeezy:



its not judging its a fact



like i said earlier there is intentional and unintentional racism



n every breathing soul does it

enomakos:
so you are a crook right?

chiraqDemon:

No lie all tnose small white lies to get ur parents to add an extra 1 or 2k for u.
They might seem like nothing but they go a long way in defining the fact that ur really not honest. But im not a crook per say, id never go ahead to scam somebody. Id never rob. But there are things ive done that are against the law that in saner climes (ie where lawbreakers are punished accordingly) i might have gotten a month or two jail term, some community service and a little probabtion period. Id say that goes ahead to qualify me as someone with not so straight ways. But not necessarily a crook.

GavelSlam:


Is he really?

Can you actually say the number of people involved in 419 is less than a million?

If you have to debate that in your head then that's not generalising.

Yeah sure. See how lovely nigeria is. Ok.

enomakos:
I get you bro ,those lie we lies as kids to get extra bucks for our parents all kids do that even Americans

sEGXY2:
Americans are so good at profiling others of what they themselves are guilty of. Our yahoo boys are learners where they are, talk about hacking, fake credit cards, fake receipts et al were all cons started by their own citizens. They've(Americans) now upgraded to pinching millions in the stock market by cloning while naija boys are pulling credit card scams.

Let's not also forget that up till now America is still exploiting Africa particularly oil producing countries even making Africa a dump site when their stupid innovations get rejected by Asians

I can perceive her hurt from her write up, she's probably been a victim of yahoo boy, cry on baby. 180 million people are also victims of your government's mass exploitation

It is so baaad ehn...but Naijas should first carry out an introspection. It started with the "selectrd rulers". They practically rob the citizens blind. How does one explain how civil servant working in pension board could make away with BILLIONS and it caught, get only 6-9 months in prison..dazzal....look at Saraki, Dino, Dasuki, Igbinedion, Ibori, even Tinubu,past and present governors, senators, local government chairmen,....look at all the political leaders who are now political god father's... Rogues, murderers, Looters and criminals.They breed Nigerian youths to become Political thugs who does their bidding. And those that could not stand murder, become internet fraudsters,claiming alliance to one politician or the other.

And the Religious bodies are equally in cahoots with them. These fuckers rob the nation,pay huge tithes and consultation fees to their prophets, pastors, sheiks, Alfas, native doctor's. And these are same people who would demand their congragrats FAST and PRAY for the success of their corrupt clients, politicians.

Check the spate of looting and gross anomalies in the education sector. Read how Vce chancellor's run universities and approve arbitrary levies and fees.

Same applies to Judiciary, Health, Defense and Security (Police),etc. Corruption have become a reality and culture in the country.

The rate and degree we have soiled our images home and abroad is terrible. I know many of my countrymen and women who gladly brandish foreign passports and identity now, not wanting to be associated with Nigeria, as the name irks suspicion.

Nigerians destroyed Nigeria and now the world is tired of Nigerians. Nobody wants them around for too long.The good ones are encouraged to swap allegiance and identity.its that bad.

The fish rots from the head.!!!.
So long we continue granting support to criminals and thugs as leaders.Cowing before them and their equally corrupt inhuman police system, DSS, SSS, NPF, the corruption disease will keep spreading and breeding youths who in turn become militants, kidnappers, ritualists, Internet fraudsters, human traffickers, Drug barons and dealers, name the vice.
