5 Things Nigeria is Doing Better than America

These are 5 areas that Nigeria is clearly outdoing the US in.

1. Nigeria’s economy is growing five times faster than the US

Most people don’t associate “West Africa” and “booming economy”, but despite the global downturn, the region is home to some growth rates that would make Ronald Reagan blush. Right near the top of that list is Nigeria, that with an average growth rate of 8.1%, are experiencing more growth than the US (a pitiful 1.5%), the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan and the entire European Union… combined.

2. Nigeria has stricter anti-piracy laws than the US

You read that right. Despite the RIAA, the MPAA, bills like SOPA and PIPA and 40,000 theaters all reminding you before a film of your moral integrity in regards to stealing cars, Nigeria are clearly ahead of America in fighting piracy. Their recent no tolerance laws have reaped some serious results: 26 anti-piracy raids, 6 million pirated works (worth US$5 million) seized and 145 arrests. Also, whereas arrests made in the US usually lead to a fine and a slap on the wrist for the offender, Nigerians convicted are facing prison, some for as long as 2 years for their offences.

3. Nigeria drinks more than the US.

Some may not consider this a way Nigeria is doing better than America, but for those college students who think nobody downs Natty Light like they do, Nigeria has something to say. Nigerians easily outdo Americans in alcoholic units per capita, but drinking Guinness is where they really shine. Consuming only a few hectoliters less than Ireland, Nigerians manage to drink significantly more of the black stuff than the US, despite Americans beer-guzzling ways and a population three times as large as Nigeria.

4. Nigerians care more about freedom of the press

Despite a historically free media, recent times have seen restrictive regimes doing their best Kim Jung Il impression with the media. But where other medias in Africa and Asia have been happy to roll over for their oppressive leaders, Nigerians would rather die than give up their rights, as several have. This past year, the Nigerian media won the Free Press Africa Award, partly in honor of the many journalists who died attempting to bring the truth to the masses. I’m not sure anyone at Fox News is planning on dying for their freedom anytime soon.

5. Nigeria, not America, is the world’s police.

Take a guess as to which country commits more troops to global peacekeeping operations than any other. If you’ve read the rest of this article so far, picked up on the theme and guessed Nigeria, you’d be correct. Nigeria ships off soldiers to 80 different countries in Africa, Europe and Asia. While Bangladesh is set to pass Nigeria’s contributions in the near future, they will still be contributing more soldiers than the EU and more than five times as many soldiers as the US. Team Nigeria World Police?

Kudos to you OP of this thread, I can see the passion you have for this nation to be great and to does that find it difficult to see good things about this country, shame on you all, I'm not surprised as they always put every pain of their lifes on government waiting for Obama and Donald Trump to come and rule them before they can see good things about their country. Nigeria is the best country in the world take it or leave it.

1. Nigeria became the global capital of EXTREME POVERTY in the year 2018, but somehow its economy is growing 5 times faster than America's.





2. Nigeria has stricter anti piracy laws than America, and yet Nigeria's anti piracy law is one outdated colonial law that doesn't even contain
anything about digital online or electronic copyright infringements.

3. Nigeria with a population of 200 million outdrinks America which has a population of over 300 million and this is supposed to fill us with pride?

4. Nigerians care more about freedom of the press, so people like Deji Adeyanju whose only offence is being openly critical about the dullard
president is being harassed and nobody is protesting about it? Nigerians care more about freedom of the press and yet the dullard's Special
Assistance on Media Affairs mounted pressure on Channel TV to doctor the video of Femi Adesina where made a blunder that all over the
world, military casualties are never published by the media? Was it not British and American journalists who corrected the idiot called Femi
Adesina and called him out for being a liar? Or what about when the dullard tried to suppress news reports about GandOLE's bribery scandal?


5. Nigeria is the world's police and yet it cannot even police its own backyard. The technically defeated Boko Haram is wrecking havoc inspite of
1 billion dollars allegedly spent on the military, Fullanus herdsmen have murdered over 10,000 people since 2015 when this moronic
administration came into power, A new terror group called ISWAP has emerged and they massacred innocent aid workers who were only trying
to help starving refugees, Leah Sharibu has now been in the hands of Boko Haram since February and unless a miracle happens, she will
probably be spending Christmas in captivity. Meanwhile the Nigerian Army has been called out by Amnesty International on several occasions
for sexually abusing women in IDP camps and trading food for sex.


Seriously, what is going on on NL these days? If it is not naked instagram models, it is nonsense like this that makes it to the Front page nowadays. Is Osewa so desperate for quality frontpage material that he is allowing outright lies and deceit to be pushed on this forum?

Seun you worked hard to make NL the most visited Nigerian website, but it seems your complacency and your unwillingness to exercise greater oversight on your mods is gradually diminishing the quality of content on Nairaland.

I have come to notice that the frustration is not due to your love for Nigeria but rather your hate for president Buhari, but I have come to tell u this, that your frustration just started, because Buhari is your President till 2023, their is no way ur Atiku and Obigotry can become the president of this country.

Pls, write this down, I will advice that u buy bucket for more wailing and tears next year.
