US Presidents will always tell you Isreal is their best Middle-East friend, South Korea is their best among the Koreas and United Kingdom is their overall best ally. This is why UK will always support US in almost everything. In the case of Nigeria, I think our best African friend should be either South-Africa or Ghana. S/A are fond of killing and deporting Nigerians so they can't be our ally. Ghana on the otherhand are always fighting with Nigeria on Social media. So my question for all Nairalanders is to educate me on the country you feel is our best friend in Africa.
i think our best friend is Sudan... conquered our territory and still ruling Nigeria indirectly till date

Nigeria's best friend is Benin Republic, When I was young, I tot Cotonou and Porto Novo were part of Nigeria. Ghana is next to Benin, we share things in common

Here are the names of Lucky Dube Killers. Are they not South African names? You may claim that Ndebeles in Zimbabwe could bear Zulu names too but look at the names properly and be honest.

Sifiso Mhlanga,
Ludwe Gxowa
Mbuti Mabe


Google this sentence :Lucky dube killers heckled in court

Lingua wise, our best anglophoe friends should be kenya, we share a lot and can learn a lot from them. ICT sector is booming just like ours, banking sector too. Entertainment wise, kenyans love our movies, speaking of religion, they also have fanatics/extremists like we do. One area we differ is the tourism sector and fight against corruption and wastage. Our best francophoe friends should be ivory coast, the people share a lot of similarities with southern nigeria. Its a pity both countries are thosands of miles away form us, we would have made good friends.
You are right on the money as per Kenya.

If I were to recommend a friend to Nigeria, I would certainly plump for Kenya. The people are civilised and are very close to our Nigerian level: can-do mentality, go-to orientation, open-mindedness, aesthetically inclined, upwardly mobile.

Ghana would have been there but the people are annoyingly petty.

SA: well take away Mandela and the white influence and you will have very little to cheer about.

CIV: the country lost it since the demise of Felix Houphet-Boigny.

Senegal: If only Leopold Senghor had capable successors Senegal would have been notable for things more noble than kaftans and tall folks.

Nigeria's friends
1) Benin Republic.
2). Southern English speaking Camerooun.
3) Equatorial Guinea.
4) Liberia
5).Sao Tome And Principe
6). Ivory coast
7). others

Nigeria's Enemies:
1). South Africa
2). Ghana
3).Zimbabwe


Recommendations

South Africa:Nigeria need to redefine its business relationship with that country to teach them some sense, MTN, protea,DSTv, shoprite and all other south African business in Nigeria need to have their operational contract in Nigeria reviewed in line with their animosity towards Nigeria. An all out economic war with South Africa is imminent, After all they stand to lose more from strained business relationship with Nigeria, since we are the #1 destination for their busineses.
However, we need to be careful not to strain relationship with their sweet women, Whom we Nigerians truely love. Infact these sweet mamas are the only buffer that has been saving ZA from the wrath of Nigeria

Ghana: We need to give them the russian treatment by cutting gas supply to that feeding bottle nation, Nigerian banks operating in Ghana needs to squeeze liquidity and credit to Ghana and thereby further tighten the financial noose around that broke ass country.

Zimbabwe: We all wish them Mugabe and wife as president for the next 20 yrs, to make them more mumufied than they are now.

@topic, who really wants to be Nigeria's friend? What is there to learn from Nigeria and Nigerians? You are good at making enemies than friends with all your " they hate us" chorus everytime you break laws.

[b]Who even asks such a dumb question when they travel to all the corners of the world to seek green pastures?

ITS OFFICIAL! NIGERIANS ARE BLOODY NARCISSISTS!

[size=16pt]Symptoms of Narcissistic disorder:

1. Has a grandiose sense of self-importance
(e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)

2. Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love

3. Believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)

4. Requires excessive admiration

5. Has a very strong sense of entitlement,
e.g., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations

6. Is exploitative of others,
e.g., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends

7. Lacks empathy, e.g., is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others

8. Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her

9. Regularly shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes[/size]

Now read this description and tell me if it does not fit perfectly to a typical Nigerians personality? [/b]

You are Very blunt but speak the truth. You have described their attitude perfectly. Its only an unbiased person that will agree with this. while they have had some advantages with it. In terms of being rigorous business people . The negatives have been devastating.. They need to realise this and tweak it for their own good and for the good of their future generation. if they really want change

Well u can go ahead and cut the Ghana. Gas supply..after all you don't even have enough supply to yoursel.. That's the height of incompetence.. Ghana has their own gas and the refinery coming up will provide 65 percent of the country power needs. Even togo and benin prefer to trade with ghana..we already watch over their. Coast line and don't make noise about it.. Keep deceiving yourself.

Benin Republic is the best friends Nigeria has followed by southern English speaking Cameroon, Those guys were part of Nigeria at some point. their northern brothers are the ones misleading them pretty soon they will have to vote on a referendum and southern camerooun will rejoin Nigeria again Just like Crimea.

The countries we should be wary of are South Africa and Ghana they are Nigerian worst enemies, They are Afraid of us and jealous of our individual business acumen and propensity to succeed no matter the odds. Which is an intangible they lack, but their women on the other hand especially the SA women we must be really friendly with because they love Nigerians and they do understand the essence of the Nigerian spirit grin .

Other Africans we can live with. Equatorial guinea is another friendly country that i have been to a really enjoyed. they have a lot of ties to Nigeria.

Thank you so much!

One thing you guys don't understand is: life outside west africa, we are termed one.

I live in SA for some while now, and there's is hot tension between SA and Naija. Both economically and womanly.. Lol

But the tensions doesn't affect our leaders, they know how to sit or call themselves to solve this problems.

Take the SA/Naija deportation saga, and of recent the synagogue saga.. Up till now the dead have not been repatriated (may they rest in peace) but the two govt have been treading carefully not to cause any major problem because they both have huge investment to protect.

I was with a white SA some few days back and he asked if I know chief so so so... Like really, I told him there are many chiefs in Nigeria and he said the man built a house over R70 million in Sandton, so he was thinking I would know him cos he's got lots of money and popular.

There's lots of Nigerian investment in SA and lots of SA investment in Nigeria..

So let's no quarrel cos we just are fooling ourselves, the elites knows how to settle disputes among themselves, so we the masses should learn to do same.

I rest my case.

From my point view during my interaction with fellow africans in Europe, I found Ivory coast and Kenyans very accommodating and friendly with me and my fellow Nigerian friends. I could observe that they were free spirited and their relationship towards us was without malice nor jealousy very much unlike other Africans i happened to meet.
