Nigerian-Americans are the most successful ethnic group in the U.S! ...it’s bc they weren’t exposed to the Democrat parasite of victimhood!
The smart ones left
I had a neighbor from Liberia once.
He called American blacks ‘lazy’!..............................
I have found this to be true of many Africans with whom I’ve worked. They’re very glad to be here, very hard-working, and one never hears them complaining about racism.
Most of the African Americans that I know are that way, too; but the ones who get all the news and attention are the ones infected with ‘victimhood’.
So the Prince phone scams were seed money for business investing!
Nigerians and Caribbean Blacks are sucking up a bunch of the affirmative action admissions quotas meant for American born Blacks at American Universities. Unlike the native Blacks, they have a high graduation rate after admission.
Muslim limb choppers running wild is only part of the reason so much of Africa is turning into $#*+hole countries. The other part of the equation is that people who could turn them around are heading for the exits in droves.
If you pay people to be lazy, they will be lazy.
African Immigrants who immigrate here legally, do extremely well, they are hard working, smart and want to be Americans.
I have no problem with people who are smart and want to come here and better society.
I just wish the African Americans (and others) would get of their keisters and do something productive instead of waiting around the democrat gravy train to delivery the 50+ years of promises that will never arrive.
I have worked with innumerable Nigerians and they were all well spoken, hard-working and motivated with no desire to return to the sh~thole they had come from.
It’s always been odd to me that all those scams come out of Nigeria, because the Nigerians I’ve met seem to put a great value on honesty. I guess there are jerks everywhere.
and all the ones I have worked with spoke a dozen African and 4 or 5 European languages each.
“corruption, poor governance, political instability, unemployment, population explosion, religious and ethnic conflicts, diseases and environmental degradation”

The ones I work with now are multi lingual, and their English is generally excellent.
I had an African boss several years ago. I had not realized there was considerable “tension” between Africans and African-Americans.
Once knew a Nigerian-American family - smart, educated, hardworking, studious, determined - and very kind Christians, too.
Plus, I loved their accents. lol
Of course, that doesn’t mean that every single person from a particular country is the same. But, the fact that this ethnic group is successful isn’t surprising at all.
Probably because this group is self-selected (the hard working & ambition, etc) there are no tribal identity issues here!
But who is doing that? It certainly can't be Nigerians. They are the most honest, successful and educated people in the world!
Yep! My daughter's high school had a Nigerian-background boy (parents were doctors who emigrated years before). He was among top 5 or 10 in the class. Excellent grades and SAT. Funny thing was, he was the preppiest dresser in the whole school - cardigans, boat shoes, seersucker suits, etc... Was admitted to all 5 Ivy colleges he applied too and others. They were tripping over themselves to get him.
