You Yoruba?
Are the rich kids of Nigeria the most outrageous yet with their lavish displays of wealth?

Nigerian is the most populated black country in the world. Think about your statement for a minute and what you are really implying.
Exactly. The country should be damn near a superpower. Yet corruption has ruined it. And they have the audacity to look down on Black Americans.
talk to me when they start flossing on this level
That's that "James-Bond-villain-shit"!
Is it outrageous because their black?because I see this from every nationality,from every coast from here,spain to main.
What I see are Nigerian's with wealth emulating BLACK AMERICAN CULTURE.I just wish we were able to cash in on it instead of some Italian fag who makes rags.
I refuse to call a grown ass man Hushpuppi who doesn't run in a crowd that has a purse collection most women could only dream about.Hell no

Clown ass thread
Money can't buy CLASS
Exactly. A lot of theeir parents have stolen money that is meant to go to government agencies. Many folks in this thread should go visit Lagos and see bentleys rolling down roads with potholes, no sidewalks, no working stoplights, no paved roads and NO DRAINAGE WHEN IT RAINS...
...If Lagos, let alone Nigeria had actual infrastructure (meaning running water and 24hr electricity) I'd be excited...
Folks don't become self-made in Nigeria... Hopefully things will get there someday... This ain't america where you can launch an app
Word. Americans should start building with these brothers and sister shiiit. We may be different culturally but why not. My coworker hates african neegas but I've never had a problem building with them.
I've met more immoral Americans than Nigerians.
To show our influence of ignorance and how it travels abroad to the Continent.
Meh
Lol... Really? Have you ever been to Nigeria?
No. BUT, what does me going to Nigeria have to do with observing a group of people on another continent expressing their wealth the exact same way hip hop/AA's has for years? Are you saying Nigerians were into buying and showing off tons of tennis shoes before the 90's? E-Money, Rappers, Boss chick, smh. This whole article reeks of copycat syndrome, just like white suburbia. When I was in college, the africans and middle eastern groups I knew would call this "americanized", and it wasnt meant in a good way. Show some originality... If Marshall and JimBob can get it, so can Emeka and Mompha...
A billionaire spraying $2500 American at a party is balling? I'm doing it wrong, I need be there
So, based on this one article, you came to this conclusion of a country of over 200 million people. That is why I asked whether you had ever been there. If you truly want to know what the people of a country are like, take a trip and see for yourself. I can't label the country of China off an article or the little interaction I might have with the few Chinese I know in America. If I really want to know how Chinese people are, I must go to China and experience it first hand. It's unfair to to label an entire nation based off actions of a few people. Mompha is not a Nigerian name. Lol.No. BUT, what does me going to Nigeria have to do with observing a group of people on another continent expressing their wealth the exact same way hip hop/AA's has for years?

Seriously? Why would you say some brain dead stuff like that. What race are you?
Lol, Where did I say that? Now youre calling me stupid. Matter of fact, if you read carefully my experiences in college, I said the exact opposite.
I give credit to your ancestors but what have you done better than any Nigerian who lives here. Not shit.
Nigeria has a lot of Nigerians in it. So many (179 million) that if you took half of them out of the country, Nigeria would still have the highest population of any African country. There are more people in Nigeria than there are in the UK, France, and Spain combined, and 1 out of every 7 black people on the planet is a Nigerian.
Nigeria is pretty parallel to Pakistan in terms of land area, population size and population density, and Lagos, Nigeria’s mega-metropolis, is the world’s fourth largest city, comparable in population and density to Mumbai, Seoul, and Jakarta.
Nigeria also has a really young population—with a median age of 18.2, half of all Nigerians are kids 17 and under, which means that if Nigeria’s kids decided they were over it one day and formed their own country, it would be the biggest nation in Africa, and the most annoying. Combine that with one of the world’s highest fertility rates (5.25 children born/woman), and you have a rapidly growing population. Currently #7 on the country population list, by 2050 Nigeria is projected to have 440 million people and have leapfrogged up to #3 on the list, behind only India and China.
To put thing into perspective. So many black people, so many cultures.

Lol....no, I know you didn't say it, but, you did label these dudes as Oreos, based off an article you read. All I am saying is don't be in a rush to label without fully understanding the culture of the people. There is so much assumption based off stereotypes and misinformation. You are looking at it from your own point of view based off your own life experience, which I can guarantee you is totally different from a Nigerian living in Nigeria. This is simply because the way Nigerians are taught about race relationships are night and day compared to blacks in America. Therefore, there is a different value system. That is all I'm saying.
This is exactly the attitude that I am talking about. Thanks for proving my point.
You're welcome. Now go back to wishing about what you could have done.
Will do. And you can go back to looking down on the lowly "akatas" while your country languishes in poverty and corruption. Just remember that the white folks whose ass you kiss will call you a n*gger too. Just don't come running to us when they do it.
The funny thing is that I have done more for your country in less than 20 years than you will ever do in your whole existence. Why are you calling yourself such an awful name. Lol.
And no, I will not run to you for anything. There is nothing that you have that I want or need.
You've done more for my country? Such as? And what have you done for yours? You're copping an attitude because I mentioned the arrogance of Nigerians in the U.S. vis-a-vis Black Americans yet you're exhibiting the very traits that I criticize.
Oh are you pulling back now? Look at the post that I first responded to. You did not mention the arrogance of Nigerians. And what if Nigerians are arrogant, why are they renting space in your head. There are countless negatives of black Americans and I don't even think about those traits unless confronted with it and I certainly don't insult Black Americans as a whole for it, but you just did that and in the same sentenced you crowned yourself as the Lord decider of Nigerian righteousness. Please sit down.
I'm not attacking or pulling back. Nigerians aren't renting space in my head, but this thread is about the ostentatious display of wealth of certain Nigerians. So I commented on the endemic corruption and immorality of Nigeria and Nigerians, how it has corrupted that country, and how they have the nerve to have a superiority complex with us. Other posters replied with similar sentiments concerning the materialism displayed and how Lagos can't keep power on for a full day.
You replied that Black Americans haven't done shit.
