      Nigeria is diverse, and not all Nigerians resist change. Progress depends on multiple factors, and is not only dependent on whether or not Nigerians are delusional. You should try and avoid oversimplifying things as it is very wrong (even for someone who "recently moved back.")

      If Nigerian think they're better that is not your problem if you as person believe you are better that be it... Most of Africa countries white people really mess our senses before they left us.... I'm happy for Nigeria they see themselves as prince and princess of Africa... If you as others Africa countries don't see yourself that way is your problem not Nigeria... You must have the confident as black man don't feel inferior to any human on this earth.... I think majority of Africa countries lack this the reasons you see Nigerian as your problem.... I have tried to take a look at individual Africa countries I found that must lack the confident black man should posees.. So anytime they see Nigerian having too much confident they say they are loud.... Man you got to he loud in this white supremacy world we are leaving in.... Don't be slave be who you are.

There are more homelessness in America today than most industrial world as l write. If you are not aware America will have you believe that America streets are paved with gold. That's what it's. You have to propagate and promate yourself when necessary. It's nothing wrong with that.

    From my experience with Nigerians, they're not a monolith in any shape or form. The idea of filling better than everyone should have something to do with the culture and geography a Nigerian comes from. There are some cultures within Nigeria that teach humility immensely, and there are cultures that don't at all. Hence, to generalize about a character trait in that polity is definitely wrong. My opinion.

      @Ige Eniolaoluwa firstly, if you are nigerian, my understanding is any discourse we have will be biased.
      I will like you to focus on her statement that the war in Ukraine is all because of one man's ego which is absolutely false hence the reason for my statement. Please, do some research about the prelude to the Ukraine war and get back to me. Hint: tensions started since 2014.

      @@anyetitan8410 I really don't care about what happened in 2014. There is no justification for that war Ukraine is suffering, Russia is suffering and the whole world is suffering. Gas prices and inflation has skyrocketed. It's all because of one man's ego. They didn't want NATO to close in on their borders but it backfired and now Finland has joined NATO. Please I hope the war stops so that no one dies again.

      @Ige Eniolaoluwa coming back to the point, do you think the war is as a result of one man's ego or is the consequence of a complicated geopolitical tension?
      My statement about chimamanda lays its basis on her claim that the war is because of putins' ego, which is not true.
      Africans should learn to hold people accountable for their wrongs irrespective of their achievements. She is a good writer she is smart, but it doesn't necessarily mean she has a mastery of geopolitics. What she tried to do was to base her claim that women are better leaders than men on a false premise the war is all because of one man's ego.

      @@anyetitan8410 if you listen carefully you will discover thar she said that we need men in our society because they are still the ones in charge. She didn't say men where bad infact she said that women are human and they won't necessarily be saints. Scientifically speaking men have more ego displays than women. So she didn't say women are any better than men she said there is a possibility that women might be better in positions of authority and should be more involved in politics.
