@@arubuolaebenezer9986Ey relax! Relax bro! At least the Kenyans weren't as outrightly petty and malicious as South Africans are praying all countries be towards Nigeria, so that they can recruit many soldiers into their anti-Nigerian army😆 Something that Ghana hasn't done since the start of our generational banter with them from the 80s
@@arubuolaebenezer9986 😂 no man, it has nothing to do with that. We relate well with the Kenyans. We renewed our bilateral relations with them in the late 2010s. Their community has lived well within our borders since the early 90s. Historically and politically, we are also noted for having less instability in our regions after attaining political independence (African academics have long opined on this). Both regions in the video are key to the growth and stability of their regions. The giants must allow us to love other Africans in peace 😂 we will come back to you, it's okay.
Bro, most of the "first this" and "only thats" in Africa, are from South Africa, by BLACK South Africans. The first Grammy to come to Africa, was brought by Miriam Makeba, a South African. The first Nobel price to be won by an African, was by Chief Albert Luthuli, a South African. I can go on all day. We all know who the real giants are, it's the ones who actually never claimed to be giants.
There's a lot that can be learnt from this conversation. 😂 Kenyans are both humble and direct, I like them. Nigerias confidence is something we can all learn from. I truly enjoyed the conversation. Thank you for highlighting Africa, especially the different regions. Your curiosity and appreciation is commendable. 🤍🤍🤍
Honestly speaking, I love the drift of this debate. It shows more of strength than weakenes, more of what unite us than what divide us. Kudos to you guys. I love the LOVE and SPIRIT displayed by all the debaters. Love you guys. In closing of my comment, I love Kenya so much that Kenya has become my adopted country in Africa as my second home. A big thanks to I AM MARWA who brought Kenya to me in a unique way and thru him I got to know Kenya more than any other African country. Love to Kenyans. Good one ❤from🇳🇬
@@kojoawotwe713 who told you that, you don't have sense of belonging, Ghana can't live without Nigeria, who is Ghana, we are one Africa, so we need to love each other, don't say other wise
With majority of our videos being of African subject matter, you really think we view Africa as a country? We view Africans as Africans. We don't see any above another.
I really love Kenya as a country and I’m a Nigerian. Because Kenya person is ready to listen and to admit where is necessary but You see particularly Ghana they would never agreed that there are smthing that you know more or have more than them. Then follow by South Africa. You could see Kenya the mutual relationship and Nigerians were honest enough to quickly reciprocate and when Nigeria admitted Kenya also reciprocated. That’s love that what we want in Africa . Africa is big . It is the second biggest continent in the world. And so there are lots of diversities among us Africans as much as there are similarities among us as well. That’s why you would see more Nigerians in countries where they are loved and respected. Nigerians are more in Kenya than in any other African countries but they are not making noise about it. Just that they were not really taking entertainment so serious in their early days like Ghana did in trying to follow Nigeria and the trend in the African soil at the time,because we Nigeria likes entertainment a lot. God bless Nigeria and Kenya and bless Africa ❤
18:14 The Kenyan society is different because it was a settler colony and there was so much brutalization and breaking up of families by the British. And yes, many women were left with homes to take care of and children to raise in cases where men were killed, imprisoned, or put in detention. This is why Kenyan women tend to be quite independent and do not wait for men to do stuff. Also, some Kenyan tribes are matriarchal, meaning children belong to the mother. That said, African men who are not Kenyan mostly don't know how to handle Kenyan women because of their independence. So, Kenyan men understand better how to handle Kenyan women than other Africans who are not used to that. However, Kenyan women are soft-spoken and generally not loud (a common East African trait), so this softens them and retains their femininity.
People think we assume superiority, no we don't. We simply try to be the best, it's a competitive nature you learn when you grow in Nigeria. Compete or be left out! Nigeria is big!!!
It is superiority. You guys can't even congratulate countries that do well. Whenever a country wins, you guys are in comment sections hating. Commenting things like, "Nigeria is still the best." "Nigeria is still the giant."

Yes we are told that but if ypu listen to our women, the burden was too much especually for our mothers. Young Kenyan women are independent because we dont want to have to depend on men like our mothers did. It does not mean its right. We need the mans help as well.
1:07:42. What Sierra said. 🇳🇬❤️❤️❤️. 🇰🇪👍🏾. I like how representatives of both countries have mutual respect at the end of the day for each other in this discussion.
It was a really good debate, I enjoyed every bit of it from beginning to end. Everyone was so honest and also respectful to one another. It made me more proud to be Nigerian and also appreciate Kenyans more. We can definitely learn from each other.
My opnion though. what makes Nigeria more recognised is their population. You can imagine one nation having a population of 250 plus that a all East African nations. There the competition would be very higher.
Kenya's Constitution is more progressive and the Democratic advancement is far ahead of Nigeria. Kenyans are brave , bold and courageous in fighting for their Democratic and Human Rights
We”ve got it all. Size,colour, population good brain even when our schools are below par. Your president said when “Nigeria sneezes you all catch cold.”We don’t have regular power supply but can buy the best generators. I sent one to my friend in Nairobi. The wife was pregnant and they were having power cuts. No comparison people.
Lol I always said Ghana has the best phonetics in Africa. Their English and Accent is the best. I’m Kenyan and my sister is in one of the universities in Ghana
Maybe we should ask them which country gives Africa bad name or bad reputation? 😂 there is a reason why Nigerian Passport is a trash while Kenyan one takes u anywhere in the world.
We all have our falls, been the Giant of a continent entails Productivity , GDP our Population , we have the 3rd biggest oil refinery in the world and also Nigeria house the richest people in the continent , we are about 250MIllion people .
But different doesnt mean bad. I think its also important tk celebrate our diverse cultires. Many at times people want to just put us under one culture. Like once someone got mad because i told them i jave mever had plantain and they were like 'how are uou african and not plantain' coz Africans are not monoloith. Its important we understand the diversities that exist in Africa. All in all we are African but doesnt mean we are exact.
I don't care which country in Africa is the so called giant. I love the discussion but, I wish I and I introspect deeper. Otherwise, this is ridiculous. We want one Motherland.
Well, the nickname "Giant of Africa" was given by the fighters and heroes of Nigeria's independence. And back then Nigeria was literally the powerhouse of Africa competing on the world stage so the name Giant of Africa was valid. Has Nigeria backslided? Yes it has! We admit it but should we now change it to the "Dwarf of Africa" so that everyone would be comfortable and feel less inferior? We arent the only one with a self acclaimed nickname: Malawi 🇲🇼 ( The Warm Heart of Africa) Gambia 🇬🇲 (The Smiling coast of Africa) Kenya 🇰🇪(The Pride of Africa) Cameroon 🇨🇲 (The Hinge of Africa) Ghana 🇬🇭 ( The Gateway to Africa) Namibia 🇳🇦 (The Gem of Africa) Uganda 🇺🇬 (The Pearl of Africa) Angola 🇦🇴 (The Kuwait of Africa) Chad 🇹🇩 (The Dead Heart of Africa) Mali 🇲🇱 (The Eyes of Africa) But when it gets to: Nigeria 🇳🇬 (The Giant of Africa) Everyone gets offended and start criticizing everything anout Nigeria🤦🏾♂️ Is Nigeria now the only one who shouldn't take pride in her nickname? A question i need answers to from my African brothers and sisters. Why is the nicknames of other countries not a threat to you? Why is it only Nigeria's??
Don't worry, only the greats are trolled and as they say, its lonely at the top😅...but it is well, your time to live up to your title is coming. love from Kenya.
Every country in africa want to be giant of Africa whereas abandoning their own nick name to drag with Nigeria. The inferiority complex in those other african countries is loud 😂😂😂
Nigerians don't claim superiority. We are not colonizing others either. We are only showcasing our culture and spreading our love. Embrace our love because we truly love Kenyans
Kenya is more American than other africans because even cultural things arent practised in kenya as other africans countries and that has made kenyans to be more flexible while being in different countries and even comfortable to interruct.also about kenya women are more empowered.
Just like SA, Zimbabwe and Namibia, Kenya was a settler colony and the effects of the brutality from British settlers affected the family and cultural dynamics in a very big way. Nigeria did not face those effects considering it was indirect rule that left most of their cultural and family units intact..That pain is felt till today for anyone who knows kenya history especially on kikuyu tribe..the issue of being a giant or not is dependent on the quality of life you give to your citizens. Is India the Giant of the world because it has 1.4b people? what metrics do you use or is it self proclamation? It would help if we focused on our strengths on things that matter, and as a kenyan, every African nation has potential to greatness in their own way depending on their contributions to a better Africa.
In Kenyan culture, women are raised to be more independent and career-oriented. This translates to gender roles, it doesn't have to be women cooking alone (men can also adopt this) or they can also farm, lead companies, etc...love & affection aren't things comfortably embraced in the open, and very few Kenyans have a different experience.
Kenya has done a lot of things right in the past 10 years. While Nigeria appears to be regressing faster, there are many aspects that put Nigeria ahead of Kenya. Kenya cannot be the giant of Africa. Perhaps East Africa. South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, etc beat us in many metrics. Even Ethiopia can eat us.
@@lama3469 Thank you. We look up to you. Stand up and be the giants you are. See you soon! My friends are visiting us from SA tomorrow and I cannot wait.
Hey guys as kenyan American i think you guys would be more like kenyan than Nigerians ....kenya is the little America in Africa....if you doubt me interview me and let you know in details or visit kenya and Nigeria then see the difference for yourself.
Not all African Americans think of Africans as one people. They think of them as those who we came from in West Africa against those in other parts of Africa. I don't agree that Nairobi is the only place to fly a drone. Other places in Kenya are more beautiful than Nairobi.💯
Nigerians had indirect colonisation and Kenya had direct colonisation. These affected culture and family structure. In direct colonisation the coloniser forces his culture on the indegenous people such as religion, language, mannerisms, dress, music, family structures and gender roles. The leadership structures found in the different nations are taken over by imposing administrators, laws, and military. Completely desimating any trace of the cultural and political traditional practices. Also because of exploitation of the resources villages were destroyed and instead concentration camps. Also a lot of the men were separated from their families to build roads, infrastructure and fight in this case WW2 Indirect colonisation, the colonisers used the existing traditional structures. The chiefs, and kings were used by the colonisers to impose colonial rule on their chiefdoms and kingdoms. So the culture was kept intact, family structures kept intact, religious practices kept intact. I think this is where the difference comes in, in the way we both are.
@@wanguikariuki7673 It felt so bad for the British to lose men to mosquitoes that the British took the cheaper way to exploit and rule. The British took indirect rule. Direct rule will fail in Nigeria because the ethnic groups in Nigeria use different lingua to communicate and The group have diverse cultures. The languages spoken in Nigeria are more than 200. The terrain is unfriendly to the British.
Nigeria was given the title "Giant of Africa" because of things like Political influence, military power, Africa's largest economy, huge entertainment and music industry and the massive population. Western countries are far more developed but America is still called the giant🤷♂️
Nigerians don't claim superiority. We only assert who we are and always there to help others. There is nothing we can do to help anyone who claims inferior
It is not only Nairobi that is the developed City in Kenya , unless you not traveling to other parts of the country. Mombasa is world class tourist destination , Nakuru and Kisumu are very beautiful cities with international Airports and great infrastructure and there are many
True Tourism is booming in Kenya more than Nigeria could ever do even on theyre best day’s.Kenya is a very beautiful country that’s why Tourism is booming there since the 80’s
Nigeria had potential to become giant of Africa that never became...that by its own great thinkers, Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka and great chinweizu... Nigeria is a very "divided nation" within itself, the most industrialist Nigerians, the igbos, who could have made Nigeria great are the very ones feeling marginalized (and wishes to have the country of their own, not part of Nigeria)...one is only "feeling Nigerian" outside Nigeria or only during football matches (cup of nations or world cup)...this i was told by Nigerians themselves in Lagos, Nigeria..! The giant of Africa is__-_____________________
The truth of the matter is, Nigerians have never claimed superiority to any African . Nigeria has always been helpful to other Africans in times of need. From Somalia, to Rwanda, Mozambique, Angola, South Africa,, Liberia, Serria Leone, Nigeria has always been there.
How dare they brand themselves giant of africa when they do not have a national carrier, even internate penetration in rural is a big challenge for nigeria.
Wizkid won grammy along side with Beyonce but his award was to be presented to him backstage and he declined and wasn't present on that day. But today that narrative has changed.
I love you speech at the end of the video dude, you're talkin directly to south Africans, it's all about jealous towards Nigerians. Giant of Africa is a nickname giving to Nigerian for the big brother the played in helping almost all African countries in their times of difficulties in 60s, 70s, 80s,90s, and even 2000 Every African countries got her nickname, why are they all jealous of Nigeria, that's the problem, I mean, its a nickname and Nigeria deserves it, go read history Lastly we Africans maybe some how look the same but we're different in culture, way of life, our characters, pls see us differently not the same, Europeans are different Americans are also different That's my submission, thanks
No they not you have to deserve that name and Nigeria or any African country beside SA deserves that name and I am not even SA.but SA is far ahead from Nigeria.beside SA African countries included Nigeria and Kenya has along way to go

Africa is the most diverse continent on the planet. The genetic diversity is absolutely incredible. No other continent is this diverse. As for African Americans, my teacher, Bobby Hemmitt says African American excellence is as a result of the forceful generic unification that came about during slavery. Many Nations in Africa were kidnapped and forcefully mixed and breed to create this homogeneous African that has all the genetic markers from West and Central Africa. I also suspect Tipu Tip the slave trader from Zanzibar sold many slaves to the Portuguese that ended up in the Americas. This genetic diversity mixed up forcefully would never have happened in Africa because of ethnocentrism. The result is a new African that checks all the boxes for intelligence, strength and talent. This fulfills the prophecy of God Tehuti, that a New Kemet will be created in a distant land in the West.
One of the reasons why Nigeria is a giant is because of all this comparison Others Africans are trying to compare themselves with Nigeria. I have never seen Kenya compare themselves with Somalia or South Africa with Ghana, or Uganda and Senegal, its always Nigeria Nigeria Nigeria
Another point I want to being to bare is that every country has its nickname. Ghana call itself the Black star of Africa; Uganda says they are the Pearls of Africa; South Africa is the Rainbow nation; Cape Verde is the Smiling Coast of Africa; Nigeria call herself the Giant of Africa. We don't have problems with what you call yourselves because we are open minded people. Why can't you just accept us the way we are and what we call ourselves?
Nigeria is just a big market for electronics and other goods from the world biggest manufacturers owing to it big population of over 200 million however Kenya is far much ahead of Nigeria in terms of Technological advancement and know-how in the country's systems
Are you people are giants on the papers and internet, but ground wise and development of the people Tanzania has left you all behind, because it is not a western puppet that is why there isnt much noise
Nigerians also went to war two and in a man must Nigeria to care of his family whether his wife have money or not. In Nigeria a man not taken care of his family is considered as an abomination.
Few do but generally we women open our own doors and pull our own chairs in Kenya. When one offers am slightly taken a back. I think that's why there is a femicide issue. Our men don't know or weren't taught how to love and cherish us
@TheDemouchets react, you see us all as Africa which is wrong bcos Africa is a continent right? We can't call you European country, or western countries because you don't like seeing yourself as one of them but America not even like the America continent but USA. So yes a Nigeria would not accept such classification and would let you know he/she is Nigeria and not Africa. When such happens, they tag them as proud.
I think you misunderstood her. She's referring to the PEOPLE in that respect. Though what you said is equally right because many didn't see Africa as a continent. What she implied is that when you talk of Black continent, Africa comes to mind in the USA. So, when it comes to issues relating to the people of Africa, they see us as one.

Everyone gets offended and start criticizing everything anout Nigeria🤦🏾♂️
Is Nigeria now the only one who shouldn't take pride in her nickname? A question i need answers to from my African brothers and sisters. Why is the nicknames of other countries not a threat to you? Why is it only Nigeria's??
Don't worry, only the greats are trolled and as they say, its lonely at the top😅...but it is well, your time to live up to your title is coming. love from Kenya.
You hit the nail on the spot exactly! People just get condescending because it's attributed to Nigeria.
It's because Nigerians are so loud & flamboyant...Others are very quiet with their nicknames..
Exactly.
Every country in africa want to be giant of Africa whereas abandoning their own nick name to drag with Nigeria. The inferiority complex in those other african countries is loud 😂😂😂
Nigerians don't claim superiority. We are not colonizing others either. We are only showcasing our culture and spreading our love. Embrace our love because we truly love Kenyans
Kenya is more American than other africans because even cultural things arent practised in kenya as other africans countries and that has made kenyans to be more flexible while being in different countries and even comfortable to interruct.also about kenya women are more empowered.
It is time to travel folks Kenya awaits!
South africa is Europe of Africa periods and Nigeria they are giants of Africa by population
😅😅😅 like that by population ‼️🙏
Especially the parts where your slave masters still live in.
In future South Africa most likely is going to devide into two , hopefully my fellow Africans are smart enough to get the richer part.
i mean you both pretty faces looks just like us here in 9ja❤ . No DNA test needed. 🎉
Yea standing on business📌
South Africa VS Nigeria would be hillarious and long
@KediboneModise.-v8o
Iketle pele re heme tlhe.
Please, they shouldn't. We can do with a little peace. 🤞😣
No hle, re kgathetse of the same conversations everyday
No better not.Thise 2 can fight till they unaliveeachother ..We need peace please.Nigeria and South Africa enemy’s on a different level
@TheDemouchetsREACT you can mimic the accents am African, I personally think its okay, you are one of us, I wouldnt be offended. Much love from Kenya.
Just like SA, Zimbabwe and Namibia, Kenya was a settler colony and the effects of the brutality from British settlers affected the family and cultural dynamics in a very big way. Nigeria did not face those effects considering it was indirect rule that left most of their cultural and family units intact..That pain is felt till today for anyone who knows kenya history especially on kikuyu tribe..the issue of being a giant or not is dependent on the quality of life you give to your citizens. Is India the Giant of the world because it has 1.4b people? what metrics do you use or is it self proclamation? It would help if we focused on our strengths on things that matter, and as a kenyan, every African nation has potential to greatness in their own way depending on their contributions to a better Africa.
When that lady said Nigeria taught her about her identity as an African, that told me everything I needed to know. That's power and influence.
In Kenyan culture, women are raised to be more independent and career-oriented. This translates to gender roles, it doesn't have to be women cooking alone (men can also adopt this) or they can also farm, lead companies, etc...love & affection aren't things comfortably embraced in the open, and very few Kenyans have a different experience.
Wow
Kenya has done a lot of things right in the past 10 years. While Nigeria appears to be regressing faster, there are many aspects that put Nigeria ahead of Kenya. Kenya cannot be the giant of Africa. Perhaps East Africa. South Africa, Nigeria, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, etc beat us in many metrics. Even Ethiopia can eat us.
No I disagree, We're are all giants in our own right. Kenya is an awakening giant, the Silicon Valley of Africa 😊 love from 🇿🇦
@@lama3469 Thank you. We look up to you. Stand up and be the giants you are. See you soon! My friends are visiting us from SA tomorrow and I cannot wait.
Hey guys as kenyan American i think you guys would be more like kenyan than Nigerians ....kenya is the little America in Africa....if you doubt me interview me and let you know in details or visit kenya and Nigeria then see the difference for yourself.
Not all African Americans think of Africans as one people. They think of them as those who we came from in West Africa against those in other parts of Africa. I don't agree that Nairobi is the only place to fly a drone. Other places in Kenya are more beautiful than Nairobi.💯
Sending love
Nigerians had indirect colonisation and Kenya had direct colonisation. These affected culture and family structure. In direct colonisation the coloniser forces his culture on the indegenous people such as religion, language, mannerisms, dress, music, family structures and gender roles. The leadership structures found in the different nations are taken over by imposing administrators, laws, and military. Completely desimating any trace of the cultural and political traditional practices. Also because of exploitation of the resources villages were destroyed and instead concentration camps. Also a lot of the men were separated from their families to build roads, infrastructure and fight in this case WW2 Indirect colonisation, the colonisers used the existing traditional structures. The chiefs, and kings were used by the colonisers to impose colonial rule on their chiefdoms and kingdoms. So the culture was kept intact, family structures kept intact, religious practices kept intact. I think this is where the difference comes in, in the way we both are.
Nigerian weather was too harsh for direct rule. Malaria dealt with those guys.
@adewaleomotayo9725 That makes sense 😂😂😃😂
@@wanguikariuki7673 It felt so bad for the British to lose men to mosquitoes that the British took the cheaper way to exploit and rule. The British took indirect rule. Direct rule will fail in Nigeria because the ethnic groups in Nigeria use different lingua to communicate and The group have diverse cultures. The languages spoken in Nigeria are more than 200. The terrain is unfriendly to the British.
@@wanguikariuki7673 this is informative,thank you
It would be so cool to see you react to maraji videos. Her old videos are unapologetically Nigerian.
Nigeria was given the title "Giant of Africa" because of things like Political influence, military power, Africa's largest economy, huge entertainment and music industry and the massive population. Western countries are far more developed but America is still called the giant🤷♂️
military power, political influence.. are you ok?
@@markjimas I'm fine, thank you. Are you ok?
Nigerians don't claim superiority. We only assert who we are and always there to help others. There is nothing we can do to help anyone who claims inferior
Yolanda, installed electricity generating capacity in Nigeria is four times that of Kenya.
@Stratocaster01 but still have load shedding in Lagos
It is not only Nairobi that is the developed City in Kenya , unless you not traveling to other parts of the country. Mombasa is world class tourist destination , Nakuru and Kisumu are very beautiful cities with international Airports and great infrastructure and there are many
You just mentioned 4 cities. Nigeria has more than 36.
True Tourism is booming in Kenya more than Nigeria could ever do even on theyre best day’s.Kenya is a very beautiful country that’s why Tourism is booming there since the 80’s
@@angelicakweku5293..It depends on what metrics a country uses to define a city
@bella-qz6ls Africa has a standard!!!
@@angelicakweku5293 ... That's what I'm asking.. What's the standard in Nigeria?
Resources...no... unless your resources benefit you then you can't use it as a yardstick to determine the giant of Africa...wisen up people
Nigeria had potential to become giant of Africa that never became...that by its own great thinkers, Chinua Achebe, Wole Soyinka and great chinweizu...
Nigeria is a very "divided nation" within itself, the most industrialist Nigerians, the igbos, who could have made Nigeria great are the very ones feeling marginalized (and wishes to have the country of their own, not part of Nigeria)...one is only "feeling Nigerian" outside Nigeria or only during football matches (cup of nations or world cup)...this i was told by Nigerians themselves in Lagos, Nigeria..!
The giant of Africa is__-_____________________
The truth of the matter is, Nigerians have never claimed superiority to any African . Nigeria has always been helpful to other Africans in times of need. From Somalia, to Rwanda, Mozambique, Angola, South Africa,, Liberia, Serria Leone, Nigeria has always been there.
How dare they brand themselves giant of africa when they do not have a national carrier, even internate penetration in rural is a big challenge for nigeria.
26:00 It's Cee's reaction for me😂😂
😂😂
Wizkid won grammy along side with Beyonce but his award was to be presented to him backstage and he declined and wasn't present on that day. But today that narrative has changed.
I love you speech at the end of the video dude, you're talkin directly to south Africans, it's all about jealous towards Nigerians.
Giant of Africa is a nickname giving to Nigerian for the big brother the played in helping almost all African countries in their times of difficulties in 60s, 70s, 80s,90s, and even 2000
Every African countries got her nickname, why are they all jealous of Nigeria, that's the problem, I mean, its a nickname and Nigeria deserves it, go read history
Lastly we Africans maybe some how look the same but we're different in culture, way of life, our characters, pls see us differently not the same, Europeans are different Americans are also different
That's my submission, thanks
No why are we in it, talk about the greatness of Nigeria and Kenya without South Africa hle.
Im not nigerian but Nigeria is s giant no doubt
Yes, in cooking Jollof
No they not you have to deserve that name and Nigeria or any African country beside SA deserves that name and I am not even SA.but SA is far ahead from Nigeria.beside SA African countries included Nigeria and Kenya has along way to go
@TheBestinMe143 its the most populate country in África in 30 years its going to be the 4th richest country in the world and south África. Will have position. 20 . There IS a study about that
@@mimikywob607 let me tell you Nigeria and many African countries have a very loooong way to go.Kenya even doing better than Nigeria yet they admit to have a loong way to go.wake up your country Nigeria has a loooooong way to go those Kenyans are right.Nigerians even go to Kenya for greener pastures better lives,Kenyans don’t go to Nigeria for better lives or greener pastures that must already tell you everything
@@mimikywob607 India is populated but poor so don't assume just because you have the largest population you will be the richest country in Africa.

Africa is the most diverse continent on the planet. The genetic diversity is absolutely incredible. No other continent is this diverse. As for African Americans, my teacher, Bobby Hemmitt says African American excellence is as a result of the forceful generic unification that came about during slavery. Many Nations in Africa were kidnapped and forcefully mixed and breed to create this homogeneous African that has all the genetic markers from West and Central Africa. I also suspect Tipu Tip the slave trader from Zanzibar sold many slaves to the Portuguese that ended up in the Americas. This genetic diversity mixed up forcefully would never have happened in Africa because of ethnocentrism. The result is a new African that checks all the boxes for intelligence, strength and talent. This fulfills the prophecy of God Tehuti, that a New Kemet will be created in a distant land in the West.
I love kenyas
Sewage is still floating please
One of the reasons why Nigeria is a giant is because of all this comparison Others Africans are trying to compare themselves with Nigeria.
I have never seen Kenya compare themselves with Somalia or South Africa with Ghana, or Uganda and Senegal, its always Nigeria Nigeria Nigeria
Another point I want to being to bare is that every country has its nickname. Ghana call itself the Black star of Africa; Uganda says they are the Pearls of Africa; South Africa is the Rainbow nation; Cape Verde is the Smiling Coast of Africa; Nigeria call herself the Giant of Africa. We don't have problems with what you call yourselves because we are open minded people. Why can't you just accept us the way we are and what we call ourselves?
@@Sportsroar601 true. Kenya is the pride of Africa

Nigerians also went to war two and in a man must Nigeria to care of his family whether his wife have money or not. In Nigeria a man not taken care of his family is considered as an abomination.
Few do but generally we women open our own doors and pull our own chairs in Kenya. When one offers am slightly taken a back. I think that's why there is a femicide issue. Our men don't know or weren't taught how to love and cherish us
South Africa is No Longer in Africa it's Competing Big Legues.😂🤣
@TheDemouchets react, you see us all as Africa which is wrong bcos Africa is a continent right? We can't call you European country, or western countries because you don't like seeing yourself as one of them but America not even like the America continent but USA. So yes a Nigeria would not accept such classification and would let you know he/she is Nigeria and not Africa. When such happens, they tag them as proud.
I think you misunderstood her. She's referring to the PEOPLE in that respect. Though what you said is equally right because many didn't see Africa as a continent. What she implied is that when you talk of Black continent, Africa comes to mind in the USA. So, when it comes to issues relating to the people of Africa, they see us as one.
