The good, the bad, the ugly, it\u2019s just like another New York. You know, Nigeria is fun to be honest. But we\u2019re not the worst people. All we have people talking about when it comes to Nigeria is crime and fraud, and that\u2019s just a very, very, minute number of people. Nigerians as a whole are very confident people, I believe we\u2019re confident, I believe we\u2019re very resourceful and we are very hospitable when it comes to visitors in the country.<\/p>\n<p>PP \u2013 When you look at you\u2019re country, what are some of the things you love about it, what are some of the things that you would like to change?<\/p>\n<p>GN \u2013 I like that as Nigerians as we are, we have some sort of neighbourly love that we don\u2019t understand, we have a way of coming to the rescue of complete strangers, we do have that bond and I think it has to do with our background and how we are raised and how Nigerians in a whole have been made to be morally. It\u2019s like you have a moral duty to your society, to yourself, to your family so it\u2019s like everybody\u2019s business is everybody\u2019s business. It\u2019s a bad thing sometimes, but it does have its good sides. You know, so that is something that we are. We probably don\u2019t know as a people and if we don\u2019t know we should know it now, it\u2019s a good thing. What I don\u2019t like about Nigeria\u2026man, I never diss my own country, man! You know, what ever negativity is in a country is in every other country; it\u2019s in every other part of the world. So, the thing is everyone needs to be treated as individuals and not a collective nation. You don\u2019t judge one person or judge one person by another persons faults. So, I just take every Nigerian the way I see them. I would never live anywhere else to be honest, no.<\/p>\n<p>PP \u2013 Really?<\/p>\n<p>GN \u2013 No, I grew up in Lagos, I was born, bred there. I don\u2019t see myself leaving that town anytime soon. I can work anywhere else, but in terms of living, I\u2019m used to Lagos, I\u2019m sorry!<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Click for Full Image Size\" onclick=\"window.location='\/image_preview2.asp?img=Z2Vubi5qcGc=';\" class=\"img1\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/779be09eimage.aspx_.jpg\" border=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> <span>Do you have a story\/gist for publication?
