    15 areas Nigeria is better than America

    United States of America may be better than Nigeria in many ways, but there are also areas Nigeria is better than U.S. I have compiled just 15 of them for a start. Read and leave your comment. 1. Intelligence and smartness Nigerians are the most intelligent people in the world. Yes, they are the smartest you find anywhere in the world. However, the problem with intelligent and smart people is that, in anything they do, their intelligence and smartness come to play and others in the same circle hardly match their rare skills. In business, they will be intelligent and smart, in education, they will be intelligent and smart, in music and entertainment, they will be intelligent and smart and also in criminality, they will be intelligent and smart. As we all know, negative stories sells faster than anything else and this explains why Nigerian criminals are also world famous for their craft. Nigerian criminals, particularly the internet scammers are not in any way more dangerous than...

    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 ...

    WHY CHILDREN HATE SCHOOL IN NIGERIA  A social commentator with username ‘’smallpenis’’ on nairaland online forum have stated that,the level and standard of education is dropping in the country Day by Day,we can say this from the WAEC results of this year. Explaining why children hate school in Nigeria, he listed factors responsible for this situation. He wrote: Bad Teachers: if you compare the educational sector abroad to that of Nigeria,you will see that the teachers try to create an friendly environment,and make sure the children see them as friends they can trust,but here most teachers are only concerned about their paychecks. Poor Learning Aids: most of the schools across the country have little,poor or no learning aid. Learning aids are important for every child to learn well,infact it helps for easy remembrance during tests. Poor Learing Structures: all I can say is how do you expect a student to learn well when he is thinking about his achin...

    Nigerians And Their 'My Enemies' Mentality

    -
    "MY ENEMIES ARE AT WORK" A former work-mate Jay was giving me the low-down about something that happened to him recently. A while back, he had attended an 'awesome' Halloween party, and had decided to go as a traditional masquerade. Ingenious right? Jay brought the mask back home after the party, and hung it as a decoration on his room wall. It was a really grotesque mask – just imagine the alien’s face in the movie Predator. I chided him for hanging up the mask in his room, as it stuck out like a sore thumb, spoiling the overall décor of the place. Fast forward, a month later, he pulled this really hot chick when he met at a wedding in Ph. They spoke on the phone for days, and then she promised to come visit him one Saturday. Jay got the place ready for the lass’s visit. He tried to make the pad ‘condusive’. He took out the sofa from the room, so that the girl would have to sit on the bed. He turned down the thermostat on his split unit AC so that the place wa...

    Obasanjo: Why Yar'Adua's Cabal Tried to Rubbish Me *Accuses Kingibe, Tanimu, Others of Using State Power to 'Settle Personal Scores' *Claims His Daughter Was Framed as Part of Ploy to Cut Him to Size Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has detailed how members of the cabal around his successor, late President Umaru Yar’Adua tried to hound him out of relevance using state resources and how he decided that fighting back may be unwise. In a tell-all, three-part autobiography, which a FCT High Court has stopped Obasanjo from publishing, the former president named then Economic Adviser to Yar’Adua, Dr. Tanimu Yakubu Kurfi and one-time Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Alhaji Baba-Gana Kingibe as the arrowheads of a cabal that tried to rubbish him and his achievements. In the books titled 'My Watch', Obasanjo further named two former governors, Bukola Saraki and James Ibori, as persons who “aided and supported” the duo in their quest to hit back at hi...
