sweetpie23: Africans do make terrible friends, u know? ![]() ![]() ![]() Given the option of being friends with an european (most of whom are very liberal to the things africans kill themselves for) is better than settling for an african . , . . . . . ![]() ![]() ![]() Its however all about the person not the race. |

@ post beats me too. although, i will exempt nigerians and ghanians from this. imagine a congolese girl telling someone she is 'black british' ![]() meanwhile i have met guys that were born and bred in UK, never stepped a foot in naija, and when asked the same question, its 'am a nigerian'. |

we Nigerians are too full of ourselves, imagine a lady, cos you ask something from her, her hair style or what, she will bluff and throw you off. |

Anabel: na lagos girls dey do this one pass. you see a nice weaveon (prolly a new weave in the market ) on their head and you walk up to them, smile, compliment their hairdo and nicely ask for the name of the weaveon. and they go like (with a very proud tone) '' i dont know it'' i usually give it back to such ladies. i tell them so you actually sat down and allowed someone glue or sew rubbish on your head without even bothering to know/ask what it is? and i roll my eyes at them and walk away. nonsense ! while some nice chicks will give you the brand name of the weaveon, colour and even the name and address of the salon where the hairdo was done. ![]() |
