Nigerians are extremely intelligent. My daughter is half Nigerian born and raised in America. She visited Nigeria for a month when she was 6 years old. Other than that she has no other contact with Nigeria. She was a straight A student in AP courses. I would wake up at 2am and find her studying. It's genetic not just environmental. Never once did I tell that child to work hard, she does it naturally.
Genetic, yes.. But she could have been even MORE, through the "environmental effect".... Trust me.. I know.. I live and grew up in the UK, but my parents sent me to boarding school in Nigeria... Compared to the other British born Nigerians in the UK, who've never been to Nigeria, or just have faint memories of visiting as a toddler, people do tell me that my approach to things in general is different, and in a good way... They wouldn't know what to do, if the washing machine broke down suddenly, or if there was a country wide black out, or if you had no hot water for a shower... Would your daughter?? 🤔.... These are just some of the knowledge bestowed upon you, just by being in that environment.... You learn about simple, but yet, important life saving and life preservation skills... Like, eating dry toast (no butter), to stop a seriously upset stomach... That simple... Bet you or your daughter didn't know that!.. Try it sometime... and see for yourself! 🤣.... And there's plenty more too!.. All from being in that environment!🤷🏾♂️
Really what is up with all these intelligent and sucesfu Black people all over the world. A ha they are all Nigerian. The qorld can gandle one Black moviestar, one Black writer and now we have one African country with all the smart people. Ay ay ay a yay. Stupidity to the max.
When I was 18 and all I knew was my school books, I was introduced to money by two Nigerians. I’m 40 now and lessons from those two brothers still make me money today. Still proud to be Kenyan though but I must acknowledge my Nigerian brothers and sisters.
I want to express immense gratitude on behalf of my fellow Nigerians for your positive message. It's quite rare to find non-Nigerians who speak positively about us, and your words are deeply appreciated. Best regards. 😊
A person like me who is not a Nigerian thinks this is a normal and a general thing,if you want to become broke just like your father in that hardship then it's up to you,I knew this without no-one telling me!
Keep dreaming and floating on sentiment, in 50 years nigeria will be in the same spot, bad people, bad governance and illiteracy is prevalent, I'd put my house on it
What a wonderful and positive video which is so true, I’m going to show my 11 year old this video. I’m always telling her you have to do well it’s not a mummy thing it’s a Nigerian thing it’s normal😂 We just have the mentality that nothing cant stop us.
As Zimbabwean l approve of this video from my experience their culture, their upbringing naturally gives them a strong emotional intelligence. They are fearless, determined, they can never feel inferior to anyone, they easyly spot liars, manipulators, narcissists from a mile away. May God bless their mothers l aspire to nurture my children as they do.
Am a Nigerian living in Germany. I've taken not less than three of my German friends to Nigeria. I always advice my friends from all nationalities to visit the University called Nigeria once in a life time. ❤
I am south Sudanese Canadian and I got mad respect for Nigerians. Nigerians are very ambitious and confident. They are intelligent and they don’t take no for an answer.
Yes oo Nigerians are smart. People don't hate them but are envious and jealous. Before I was educated I used to think Nigerians Nigerians are thieves because that's what I was told but when I got to mix and know them for myself I realised the greatness in them. Spiritually, academically, business world they lead. I appreciate my Nigerian brothers and sisters whole heartedly❤❤❤❤
@@some1350Ghanaians are not envious of Nigerians? Ok, then tell me something different, like the right word to use, if not ENVY then what? And we keep supporting you guys in many ways because we see you guys as our brothers, yet you guys will come saying Nigerians don't like you people, rather it's the other way round, so what do you call that? And I'm saying it back to you, you stop with your divide and conquer strategy ok?
I am sure you have never been to Nigeria, and seen power only 4 hours a day for 2 weeks, see how corrupt and evil the government is, see how really brilliant things are.
I am Jamaican and 53% Nigerian and I love was so happy when I saw my results. I love my Nigerian Ancestry but yes they are very smart people and it would be so amazing if the other African countries would push Education like the Nigerians do.
As a Nigerian living in Nigeria, I can tell you for free that the reasons Nigerians do well out there is because the effort it takes a Nigerian to make a naira here will make us $10,000 out there. It's a lot of hard work to earn a living here, so it makes earning a piece of cake when we get out there.
True but we are getting wiser now... People are now realizing that it's a form of slavery by our politician capitalists who imbibe European colonial oppression behaviours.
You're forgetting that the way you make the money, is the same way you spend the money. The standard of living there is very high compared to Nigeria. So as you're making the money you're using alot of it for bills. It isn't easy anywhere
One of the reasons Nigerians adapt so easily is because God knows how tough life is in Nigeria, especially within the insanely corrupt politicians, living expenses and safety and security issues that happen, and there is even a thing if you can survive in Nigeria, you can survive anywhere in the world, those people are strong😭
As a Nigerian I won't attack those criticizing us because some of us are actually bad. All I want people to realize is that there are honest Nigerians. I misplaced my phones on many occasions and Nigerians picked them and returned them. My course mate at school misplaced her money and I picked it up and returned it. I was starving at school then but I came from a culture where taking what doesn't belong to you and making it yours is believed to attract poverty, misery and untimely death. Individuals from certain culture in Nigeria are the ones embarrassing us. There are good, honest people in Nigeria and they are more than the bad apples.
@@voornaamachternaam5745why did you listed those tribes, did he list any, why talkin rubbish, stealing is an individual act not tribe, why didn't you mention Yoruba, are they innocent
There is a tribe called Kwahu, in. Ghana. These people were once servants to the Nigerians who came to do business in Ghana. They learned biz MGT from the Nigerians and these people run most of the businesses in Ghana.

You’re 100% spot on. I’m Nigerian and when in a room full of Nigerians I’m always blown away by the extent of competence, skills, knowledge and talent that exudes from that room so much that I’m intimidated even with all my skill, wealth and talent
Let’s just appreciate this man. I can tell he speaks his mother tongue. But yet so eloquent. Also very informative. You definitely do your research. You’re also very smart my Kenyan brother
As a Nigerian I am happy that atleast someone who is not a Nigerian is speaking good about nigerians because their have always being bad narrative about Nigerians. Thanks for this video
Well…Nigeria is the most populated African country. So the probability of meeting a smart/successful Nigerian is far greater than meeting a successful/smart African from a different country. However, most Nigerians I’ve met are smart.
I appreciate you bro... Sincerely what you say is nothing but the truth... The only bad thing we have in Nigeria is our Rulers/Leaders/Government... Love from here in Nigeria 🇳🇬
As a Nigerian, I really appreciate the good words about us. Africa must unite, develop, and enhance its identity to be the future global power. We have the human and natural resources to achieve that if we utilize them properly. Cheers.

I would be inclined to agree that Nigerians are the smartest people globally. I was also in South Africa 🇿🇦 and I never met a South African who could not speak English. 👍👍
As a Nigerian, Let me break it down! Our country is tough, rough and not for the faint of heart. So we DON'T have a choice but to try our absolute best to rise. In a nutshell, we're running away from our collective traumatic experiences and towards a better life. Moreso, we are over 250Million crammed in a small location. The competition is REAL and we're eager to prove ourselves and impress others. But please note that our accolades, doesn't always translate to peace of mind, happy intimate/interpersonal relationships and emotional stability. We might seem outwardly successful but we really don't have it all which is why you see us in other countries. In fact we have a saying "suffering and smiling" to capture the emotional state of your average Nigerian.
Afripost... leave them, let them keep talking about us... we wear their complaints and bitching comfortably like a very well-tailored Nigerian native outfit.
Most of my lecturers were Nigerians and I got great love and respect for them. It is the country where a great men of God originate. As an Ethiopian, I personally like there intelligence as well as personalities. Some rich African Countries blame Nigerians because those countries hate foreigners.
Am a Nigerian n in my Country no one wants to lay low as in u have to b very smart. U could see welcome to other Countries but I'm Nigeria. They will tell u this is NIGERIA
As a nigerian professor, i am grooming all my 7 children to be doctors. No DSTV, no smartphone until you pass JAMB. Only those who fail to become doctors are currently reading nursing.
Everyday living in Nigeria is a fight to excel as this is essential for survival. Survival is our culture now. When you excel in a tough environment excellence becomes a given elsewhere. The day our government begin to get it right,?🙏
In Nigeria, there is an extreme pressure to succeed which kinda pushes people to do the unthinkable. The Nigerian society is highly competitive. But in other African societies, people are a bit reserved and have this God's time is the best mentality.
Just remember my African brothers and sisters. Our accomplishments over here are yours and whatever accomplishments you get you guys get over there at ours because we showing you guys how to stand up and why is it important for us to stand up for all right? Do not let these people turn us against each other. We need each other to make it through , just about invented everything that they use over here so don’t let them tell you nothing different
Remember Kongo 🇨🇩 used to be like that in 1960-1990. Because of the war in Kongo we're behind.. I'm proud 👏 of them.. remember also all Afrikans are becoming stronger.. Kongo 🇨🇩 for life and Alkebulan for life..here
Yeah... I concur. Currently, I am a Nigerian private school teacher, trained, certified, and professionally licensed in 3 different fields, namely; Education, Computing, and Counselling. I can assure you, we don't play with academics. And, I must confess, as a teacher I study as much as I can to stay ahead of my pupils in their learning journey. Recently, I had to master 'Generative A.I' in preparation for the new academic term. The topmost pupil in my class with a Class Average of 99.2% respectfully informed (challenge) me "sir, there is no way you can fail me in any assessment in this class, again." I can smell this child is ready to frustrate my life with cues, questions and counterquestions. That is a true Nigerian spirit, it is nowhere near pride nor overconfidence, but self belief, discipline, dedication, and goal orientation. The gut of a true Nigerian. We truly believe in ourselves and our abilities. We productively compete for/with almost anyone/anything. I wish all Africans can emulate.
Congrats on the life achievements you continue to make. These are the stories that make me happy. I like how you accept nd acknowledge your strengths as Nigerians. And instead f hating, other Africans should emulate your spirit and tenacity towards life
You won't understand Nigerian's survival instincts until you visit Lagos where you complete for literally everything - including a tiny space to walk on the street 😂
One key reason for the resilience and hardworking spirit of the Nigerian (especially in diaspora) is our communal nature. The typical Nigerian comes from a large family, so when one gets the opportunity to "seek greener pastures" abroad, you have the weight of that large family on your shoulders. And, it's not just figuratively, because, on week after you leave the country, you'd get a call from some distant relative from home, narrating his ordeal and pleading for help cos he believes you're now rich. Travelling abroad comes with so much responsibility as a Nigerian. You just know you can't afford to fail. Besides, we are, somewhat, a proud people. You can't have left your country (usually with much buzz) only to return same way you left or worse. For most people in the world, success is a choice; for us, Nigerians, it is a MUST.
Ey mehn, this video just earned you my subscription 💯. I haven’t felt this proud to be Nigerian in a long time 🥹 I wish as Africans, we would speak more about our qualities 🥹❤️💯🔥 This is how we grow💪🏾
I am a Nigerian and I agree that we are unique to some extent of course being that every country is unique in it's on way. Now as for being quiet it's actually on the contrary, we are as loud as an emergency siren, if not even louder.
Am a Ghanaian living here in the United States 🇺🇸, i feel Nigerian are very smart and good people but a few bad nuts is making all Nigerians look bad.There nothing wrong for being smart.
Those few "bad nuts" are not only seen in the Nigerian fold - we have them in every national including Ghana. So, pick positivity and let negativity remain in the bin.
We are not any worse or any better than others. All humanity must unite and respect diversity. We work hard but also there are many that don't. Nigerian middle classes are into education big time.
You did your research well. Let me add something else that makes Nigerians stand out. We don't see poverty as a cage but rather as a challenge to be overcome. The poorest mother in Nigeria wakes up early and takes her children to the best affordable school in her area. If you are in a state called Akwa Ibom, you see hope, courage, resilience and laughter in the faces of young children hawkiing goods after school. They are always clean in affordable good clothes. They dont feel inferior to anyone. We hate inferiority complex and people who wear sorrow on their faces. Dont also forget that we pray a lot. We are very spiritual and dear to God's heart.❤ Nobody should envy us when we emerge as the United States of Africa in technology very soon. We are Unstoppable. Skin colour is no hindrance.
As a South African, Nigerians can make fun of me and vice versa, but I take offence when non Africans make fun or ridicule Nigerians or any other Africans, these are our brothers and sisters
If only the Leaders of Nigeria could be this smart and competent.. 🙄 Also a sad part of the matter is they hardly use their Degrees for the betterment of Afrika, they tend to gravitate towards giving their Talents away to Europeans to build up their society instead of their own..
As a Nigerian in Diaspora, I have a lot of African friends, but most Kenyans are the best Africans with pure hearts devoid of prejudices towards other African brothers. That is why the presenter (a non-nigerian) was able to speak those facts about Nigerians.
You earned a sub and upvote for an objective presentation that brought the positive and negative together, weaving an interesting story of the essential ingredients that make Nigerians tick.
I came across your video, and because you stood by the truth as a true African, I have subscribed to your channel, and I will continue to follow your channel.
thank you for this. Glad you enjoyed it. I have many videos on Nigerians kindly share them with your team to spread the positive gospel of promoting Nigerians
One day Inshallah we will figure out how to work together, and stop the biggest divide our parents created and lived by "Tribalism" If and when we figure that out, Nigeria will be a catalyst of success for all black africa and the diaspora for all.. Start with us, no more I am igbo, hausa, yoruba! unite forget about what nonsense our parents told us of the other
I remember when i was growing up, i will have to spend my weekend: Saturday and Sunday to go for labouring job, and i also was outstanding in my class and local government then. Every weekend i need to do the jobs to ensure i get money for my textbook and pen and school fees. #300 naira was the payment, i scale through university in the same manner. I graduated as microbiologist, Now i am a software engineer, into business and also tutoring. There was a necessity for me to grow so i can adapt to any situation, i saw it as normal then untill now that i see how many people struggle to make ends meet because they cant work or navigate there way through some stages of life. Although it is not by my power i did something in the past, God helped me. Because then, i fast almost everyday of the week because there was no much to eat. It is not easy to be Nigerian. God bless us.
You cant be a Nigerian lived in Nigeria over 20 years and be a regular person 😊 you became the best of yourself or the worst nothing normal. Succeed or loose no other options

We might seem outwardly successful but we really don't have it all which is why you see us in other countries. In fact we have a saying "suffering and smiling" to capture the emotional state of your average Nigerian.
This is just a tip of what Nigeria can offer to the world, we are coming...
im a nigerian, you just made me loved africa the more❤
Afripost... leave them, let them keep talking about us... we wear their complaints and bitching comfortably like a very well-tailored Nigerian native outfit.
I hear you
Too much smart and wise humans in and from Nigeria ❤
Always representing
Most of my lecturers were Nigerians and I got great love and respect for them. It is the country where a great men of God originate. As an Ethiopian, I personally like there intelligence as well as personalities. Some rich African Countries blame Nigerians because those countries hate foreigners.
Nigeria our father's land. We are like water we fit into any container.
Am a Nigerian n in my Country no one wants to lay low as in u have to b very smart. U could see welcome to other Countries but I'm Nigeria. They will tell u this is NIGERIA
As a nigerian professor, i am grooming all my 7 children to be doctors. No DSTV, no smartphone until you pass JAMB.
Only those who fail to become doctors are currently reading nursing.
This is very interesting
Hahahaha Baba take it easy please. Expose them small lol
As a Nigerian, thank yku for appreciating us 🙏📌
Everyday living in Nigeria is a fight to excel as this is essential for survival. Survival is our culture now. When you excel in a tough environment excellence becomes a given elsewhere. The day our government begin to get it right,?🙏
The harsh environment we Nigerians are brought up from helps us to do better when given a better platform any where in the world to strive
Thank you very much brother. We appreciate you so much.
So much love from a Nigerian.
In Nigeria, there is an extreme pressure to succeed which kinda pushes people to do the unthinkable. The Nigerian society is highly competitive. But in other African societies, people are a bit reserved and have this God's time is the best mentality.
Am proud Nigerian
Just remember my African brothers and sisters. Our accomplishments over here are yours and whatever accomplishments you get you guys get over there at ours because we showing you guys how to stand up and why is it important for us to stand up for all right? Do not let these people turn us against each other. We need each other to make it through , just about invented everything that they use over here so don’t let them tell you nothing different
I honestly love what you are doing. In Nigeria our mantra remains NO IMPOSSIBILITY. God bless you.
Thank you Victor. Glad we share the name
I'm a proud Nigerian,an Igbo precisely ❤.
Igbo students score the highest aptitude tests in the UK for many years.
Don’t bring your godamn tribalism here just say Nigerian
Remember Kongo 🇨🇩 used to be like that in 1960-1990.
Because of the war in Kongo we're behind.. I'm proud 👏 of them.. remember also all Afrikans are becoming stronger..
Kongo 🇨🇩 for life and Alkebulan for life..here
This isn't about kongo. Respect the Nigerian space 😊
Yeah... I concur. Currently, I am a Nigerian private school teacher, trained, certified, and professionally licensed in 3 different fields, namely; Education, Computing, and Counselling.
I can assure you, we don't play with academics. And, I must confess, as a teacher I study as much as I can to stay ahead of my pupils in their learning journey. Recently, I had to master 'Generative A.I' in preparation for the new academic term. The topmost pupil in my class with a Class Average of 99.2% respectfully informed (challenge) me "sir, there is no way you can fail me in any assessment in this class, again." I can smell this child is ready to frustrate my life with cues, questions and counterquestions.
That is a true Nigerian spirit, it is nowhere near pride nor overconfidence, but self belief, discipline, dedication, and goal orientation.
The gut of a true Nigerian. We truly believe in ourselves and our abilities. We productively compete for/with almost anyone/anything.
I wish all Africans can emulate.
Congrats on the life achievements you continue to make. These are the stories that make me happy. I like how you accept nd acknowledge your strengths as Nigerians. And instead f hating, other Africans should emulate your spirit and tenacity towards life
You won't understand Nigerian's survival instincts until you visit Lagos where you complete for literally everything - including a tiny space to walk on the street 😂
Onitsha too
One key reason for the resilience and hardworking spirit of the Nigerian (especially in diaspora) is our communal nature. The typical Nigerian comes from a large family, so when one gets the opportunity to "seek greener pastures" abroad, you have the weight of that large family on your shoulders. And, it's not just figuratively, because, on week after you leave the country, you'd get a call from some distant relative from home, narrating his ordeal and pleading for help cos he believes you're now rich.
Travelling abroad comes with so much responsibility as a Nigerian. You just know you can't afford to fail. Besides, we are, somewhat, a proud people. You can't have left your country (usually with much buzz) only to return same way you left or worse. For most people in the world, success is a choice; for us, Nigerians, it is a MUST.
Thanks for saying positive things about us ...we really appreciate Ur gesture. I hope other country and continent sees us as a Good people.
Oga na dey fire oo.
Ey mehn, this video just earned you my subscription 💯.
I haven’t felt this proud to be Nigerian in a long time 🥹
I wish as Africans, we would speak more about our qualities 🥹❤️💯🔥 This is how we grow💪🏾
Thanks for the sub!
Honestly 🤍🇳🇬 A lot of Nigerians are actually good people
Nigerians are just unique people and not just in Africa, but the entire world.
thanks for this honest opinion. Glad you stopped by, hope you are subscribed to the channel
I am a Nigerian and I agree that we are unique to some extent of course being that every country is unique in it's on way. Now as for being quiet it's actually on the contrary, we are as loud as an emergency siren, if not even louder.
It's a blessing when your children and offspring achieve more success than you, it's an embedded prayer with Nigerian people.
Am a Ghanaian living here in the United States 🇺🇸, i feel Nigerian are very smart and good people but a few bad nuts is making all Nigerians look bad.There nothing wrong for being smart.
Those few "bad nuts" are not only seen in the Nigerian fold - we have them in every national including Ghana. So, pick positivity and let negativity remain in the bin.
@RippleEffect. If u go against the law in any country including my motherland ghana 🇬🇭 I believe you need to go to jail n serve a term for your crimes
Thank you for the compliments! Your heart is pure...may we all Africans succeed together.
Absolutely!!
Keep on keeping on
We bear lots of pain and work hard to succeed quickly so I believe we work hard and smart ❤❤
Absolutely!!
You just gained a follower for doing God's work.. thank you.
We are not any worse or any better than others. All humanity must unite and respect diversity. We work hard but also there are many that don't. Nigerian middle classes are into education big time.
You did your research well. Let me add something else that makes Nigerians stand out. We don't see poverty as a cage but rather as a challenge to be overcome. The poorest mother in Nigeria wakes up early and takes her children to the best affordable school in her area. If you are in a state called Akwa Ibom, you see hope, courage, resilience and laughter in the faces of young children hawkiing goods after school. They are always clean in affordable good clothes. They dont feel inferior to anyone. We hate inferiority complex and people who wear sorrow on their faces. Dont also forget that we pray a lot. We are very spiritual and dear to God's heart.❤ Nobody should envy us when we emerge as the United States of Africa in technology very soon. We are Unstoppable. Skin colour is no hindrance.
This is great addition. Thanks for stopping by, hope you are subscribed
I just subscribed, I am a Nigerian and you are my brother, I want to see you succeed in your content productions.
Thank you very much. Glad to hear you wish me the best in this journey. Thank you very much once more
I like the fact that akon has let the world know how big africa is.
Nigeria s giving Africa hypertension cos of jealousy
As a South African, Nigerians can make fun of me and vice versa, but I take offence when non Africans make fun or ridicule Nigerians or any other Africans, these are our brothers and sisters
thank you for embracing them
If only the Leaders of Nigeria could be this smart and competent.. 🙄
Also a sad part of the matter is they hardly use
their Degrees for the betterment of Afrika, they tend to gravitate towards giving their Talents away to Europeans to build up their society instead of their own..
They very smart but use it for bad and selfishness
As a Nigerian in Diaspora, I have a lot of African friends, but most Kenyans are the best Africans with pure hearts devoid of prejudices towards other African brothers. That is why the presenter (a non-nigerian) was able to speak those facts about Nigerians.
You earned a sub and upvote for an objective presentation that brought the positive and negative together, weaving an interesting story of the essential ingredients that make Nigerians tick.
Awesome, thank you!
I came across your video, and because you stood by the truth as a true African, I have subscribed to your channel, and I will continue to follow your channel.
thank you for this. Glad you enjoyed it. I have many videos on Nigerians kindly share them with your team to spread the positive gospel of promoting Nigerians
One day Inshallah we will figure out how to work together, and stop the biggest divide our parents created and lived by "Tribalism" If and when we figure that out, Nigeria will be a catalyst of success for all black africa and the diaspora for all..
Start with us, no more I am igbo, hausa, yoruba! unite forget about what nonsense our parents told us of the other
I totally agree. Nigeria has uplifted our continet to the world. Lets hooe we get together as Africans and rise again
I hope you northerners and other will give south easterners i.e a chance to be president
i am not from the north@@chukwuebukairondi6188
You just gained my subscription. I'm full born and brought up Nigerian. Thanks 🙏 bro
Thank you very much. Appreciate it
Thanks my brother, this is highly appreciated
You are very welcome*
I remember when i was growing up, i will have to spend my weekend: Saturday and Sunday to go for labouring job, and i also was outstanding in my class and local government then. Every weekend i need to do the jobs to ensure i get money for my textbook and pen and school fees. #300 naira was the payment, i scale through university in the same manner. I graduated as microbiologist, Now i am a software engineer, into business and also tutoring. There was a necessity for me to grow so i can adapt to any situation, i saw it as normal then untill now that i see how many people struggle to make ends meet because they cant work or navigate there way through some stages of life. Although it is not by my power i did something in the past, God helped me. Because then, i fast almost everyday of the week because there was no much to eat. It is not easy to be Nigerian. God bless us.
We don't like failure bro. We prefate to break our tooth to make it in Life
Nigerians prosper abroad, but never in Nigeria. We need to solve this puzzle because 98% of Nigerian live in Nigeria
Where did the Nigerian billionnaires and millionaires listed by Forbes make their money? Your comment is not factual.
Lol. You must be joking right?😂 come see multi millionaires that haven't left the shores yet.. is 200 million people a joke to you?
Thank you for this video. Very encouraging. Proudly 🇳🇬
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think this is generally true for African immigrants. You cannot just go to America to play around. You go for school and to better your life
Being a Nigerian is the *Best you can be!!!*
There are very smart people everywhere Nigerians have a huge population makes it seem like they’re all so clever and everywhere
It's not just about population, there are countries with huge population but no one talk about them.
Man you really right. Those nigerians are f..king smart. I respect them. Here in US, they occupied all the medical and engineering fields
thank you
You cant be a Nigerian lived in Nigeria over 20 years and be a regular person 😊 you became the best of yourself or the worst nothing normal. Succeed or loose no other options
Well said
