This is not a rant, but they are fond of sentences like ,'ordinary Kenya, 'Cameroon of all countries', 'monkey' when referring to their neighbors? Etc .' Well coming from the most populous African-black country on earth, I'm very disappointed. Thank u 34 Likes |

^ that's even the bone of contention they worship anything foreign as in white-western , they take poo from them but are quick to demean, insult, rubbish their African brothers, an African can not give an advice to a Nigerian.

It's called low self-esteem/inferiority complex. We don't have a superiority complex, if we did we wouldn't be kissing major western and middle Eastern butt (especially western) all the time. 31 Likes 1 Share |

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. 29 Likes 1 Share |

You guys are missing it, especially Onila. Look when Ted Cruz made his remarks about Nigerians/Nigeria did you insult Americans or the USA? No When that woman on Yahoo did the Same thing did Nigerians even react ? No In both cases most people were cheering them and calling others to accept the truth. But when kenya complained about the facilities offered by the Nigeria football federation did you the online backlash? The insults , I mean really racist insults? Same with Namibia, Ethiopia etc 6 Likes 1 Share |

sonzo666: dont mix up superiority with economic complex, they are totally different issues. I for one cannot work in that kind of condition cos I know my temperament. But I cannot speak for you as that is my choice, and yours is deduced from your observing external economic dynamics. I remember an India guy giving me a hair curl cream to rob on my hair. I was like, if I put this I will look ridiculously irresponsible. My friend was shocked at this remark. inside him, I admire his hair or something, I may be wrong but why should I want his looks? A friend of mine will tell you that the the white skin is frail and not durable and not to be compare with black skin. He was not saying it s a racist, but just as innocent as it can be, from his observation. I felt it is superiority complex on his side. 14 Likes 1 Share |
