It's all about blacks. Where ever they congregate, there must be drama. Caribbeans black are next level to advance level of drama

Anytime I am abroad , I try as much to avoid Nigerians.

The reason for me leaving Nigeria in the first place is to get away as far as possible from Nigerians so why should I be in the US or UK and mingle with same people I am fleeing from when I can interact with virtually any other nationality from across the planet.

I have tend to notice that the nigerian community “abroad” is toxic. People are just filled with too much gossip, people also try to one up you, you wonder if they are your friends. Some come to your personal life and after its a mess as they come with a wave of drama to it.

Sometimes its annoying being in those spaces because its all about ‘this guy’s wife sleeping with different men who are sleeping with different girls and so on and so forth. It’s kind of annoying

Has anyone noticed this? Thoughts

This is not true.

It can depend on where you live.

I’ve never been a part of any toxic abroad community. In fact it’s been hard to even come across Nigerians in some of the places I’ve lived. At least not enough to create a big community with.

Now I’m in northern California and there are tons of Nigerians here. But get this, everyone is a professional and has a lot to lose if they were to engage in detrimental behaviors. So the community here is above board and everyone respects themselves

If you have been hurt by a Nigerian abroad doesn't mean the Nigerian community abroad is toxic......here in niaja we all learn to live by our neighbours and despite all the govt sufferings on the masses we are still smilling!

They say life abroad is "boring and "mind-your business ", so why wont a Nigerian be happy to see a fellow abroad? Why cant they mingle n discuss how to survive in "obodo oyibo "?

To me Nigerian community abroad is the best n full of fun.....

This is hasty generalization!
That might be your own experience. I wonder the country and Nigerian community you are referring to.

To be honest, the Nigerian community in the state where I live in the USA here is nicer than even my family members in Nigeria.

There are hundreds of Nigerian communities all over the world

Not one

So your premise is faulty

You have to have something in common

E.g

Not all Nigerians believe in God
Not all Nigerians believe in Marriage
Age wise you have Over 70s ,50s, 30s
Some are fraudsters, prostitutes and drug dealers

Some are doctors lawyers etc

The fact that we are Nigerians does not mean we belong in the same group or class

Just like with Nairaland

Many people meet you here and assume you are mates or in the same social class

May Israel totally obliterate Hamas and every muslim terrorist in this world. May Christian America rise to realize that their kids in college are being brainwashed to believe the propaganda of wicked Islamist. May they understand that the muslims are not only after Israel but also after Christian America and all Christians as well.

Anyone who is against the people of Saturday, will surely come after the people of Sunday too.


Totally Obliterate Hamas in Gaza and return Gaza to a serene community like that of Christians.


In the name of Allah I pray, Amin.

I am trying to avoid Nigerians as much as I can. It is really annoying.

I housed someone for a year abroad without them contributing to rent, but it appeared as if I did them wrong by asking them for their plans to get a place.

The individual prefers speaking to mutual friends in language I don't understand. Infact 99% of his phone calls are in his local dialect which I do not understand.

I have every reason to suspect the individual was already gossiping about to people and it is quiet painful cos I don't know the lies that has been told.
