these are some of the little but relevant things that could give the nation more ''soft power and influence'' today, if the country still had them.
Imagine the country being in possession of the most valuable meteorite rock from Mars on Earth, not yet studied {How mouth watering

Why wouldn't they be when the majority of them are there because of Nigeria's terrible education system?

Naijaborn · February 5th, 2011, 09:39 PM

partially true...
However Nigerians arent the only ones there for Education/. What about the Asians

DennisRodman817 · February 7th, 2011, 08:04 PM

asians are often stereotyped...unlike africans....people here just think you are from africa....u are from the village of dinka...and zulus...and u chase lions around....and u are dumb...but its fun proving them wrong.

Its too true Dennis, this lady (older too) in my African culture asked "If there are McDonalds in Africa and most of the Europeans are gone, who runs the McDonalds?"

My teacher was like "Duh the Africans

"

And she must have felt really bright conjuring that question. She would have thought: "wow, this is one hell of an A grade question," and whipped her hands in the air calling for airtime to voice all that brightness...

Arinze · February 8th, 2011, 06:56 AM

Its simple thinking stuff

but that's the thing Dennis, Asians are "often sterotyped", they not only endure pressures from their parents to perform but also from their piers who automatically believe every Chinese or Indians to be super smart based on the coordinates of their birth
