Nigeria Is So Annoying, Why Can’t We Stop Loving It?
Staff Writer
I don’t understand this thing. We don’t have water, there’s no light, but somehow I can’t bring myself to cancel this country completely.
For instance, is this your reaction if you’re complaining about this country to your American friend in Chicago, and they start agreeing and adding extra to it
Or when you go to cool your nerves in the abroad and in the midst of all the oyibos, you hear an Igbo voice on the bus saying “ndi conainers rutere?”
No matter how annoying Nigeria is, you will always see Nigerian parents going the hardest in lace and gele for their children’s graduations abroad.
Look at these guys, they can be complaining about Nigeria all morning, but just mistakenly whisper: “Ghana jollof is better than Nigeria jollof” in their middle. Try it first.
See, Rwandans can be telling us how they have light and their economy is going through a boom and we’ll still be asking if they have Wizkid.
Have you seen where they’re using corruption to brag? Tell a Nigerian how your country government is stealing money and they’ll tell you to send them to Nigeria to learn work.
But forget, Nigerians love themselves more than they love Nigeria. We can have no light at home, no fuel in the gen, be owing 5 months gbese and still find energy for TGIF.
All this one is story though. Again, if you see Canada visa, please just start running with it.
