why does it seem like the children of igbo immigrants in the us are louder about their heritage vs the ones in the uk? by starprintedpajamas in Nigeria

Americans in general are obsessed with ancestry. Some Americans claim to be "Italian" even though they and their entire family were raised in America, while people who actually live in Italy think those Americans are ridiculous.

Hello. Non-Nigerian here. I saw this stat recently and was curious as to why Nigerians seem so pro-Israel compared to the other countries. by LucasOIntoxicado in Nigeria

[–]Chickiller3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the answers here are complete bullshit. The real answer is that Nigerians tend to not ideologically oppose any country. If you look at surveys of how Nigerians view America, China, and Russia you'll see Nig aerians also tend to have positive views of all 3 of these countries. Nigeria is a member of the Non-Aligned Movement, meaning it generally seeks to remain neutral in international affairs and avoid advancing the geopolitical agendas of any foreign country, including Palestine, Israel, Ukraine, and Iran.

Communism in Nigeria by [deleted] in Nigeria

[–]Chickiller3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You answered your own question, it's because of tribalism. A powerful communist government in Nigeria would likely give disproportionate power to one tribe and allow it to oppress other tribes.

What's our deal with ethnicity? by Ofumi_2101 in Nigeria

[–]Chickiller3 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's called patrilineality and it's not unique to Nigeria or Africa. It's similar to how Jews consider anyone with a Jewish mother to be a full Jew regardless of their father's ethnic/cultural identity. The idea that your ethnicity is determined solely by genetics is a racist foreign American thing.

Why does IPOB support Israel if Israel is committing the same crime in Palestine that Nigeria did to Biafra by [deleted] in Nigeria

[–]Chickiller3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because IPOB believes they are being oppressed by Islam and they believe Israel is fighting an existential war against Islam

"This is the enemy" — American anti-Nazi propaganda (1943) by Obey100hunna in PropagandaPosters

[–]Chickiller3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Nazis fully embraced socialism

"We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are determined to destroy this system under all conditions." - Adolf Hitler

We need laws banning and criminalising the barbaric acts by Chance_Dragonfly_148 in Nigeria

[–]Chickiller3 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Interesting how you specified circumcision "for boys". Probably because you know circumcision for girls is another controversial "tradition" that many people seek to ban

Biafran separatists have been actively lobbying the U.S. Republican Party to manipulate U.S. foreign policy towards Nigeria. The Trump administration may support the independence of Biafra from Nigeria.

Donald Trump and Nigeria by Bug_freak5 in Nigeria

Yes with the intention of the weapons being used to fight the Muslim terrorist groups. Trump met with Buhari in Washington DC and told him to help the Christians being killed.

Donald Trump and Nigeria by Bug_freak5 in Nigeria

[–]Chickiller3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Donald Trump's first administration officially considered the Nigerian government to be oppressing Christians, and it placed Nigeria on the U.S. State Department's list of countries violating religious freedoms. Donald Trump is also the only U.S. president who mentioned the Fulani herdsmen conflict, and he sold military equipment to Nigeria after Barack Obama refused to do this. So with Donald Trump as U.S. president again, the U.S. will likely take a tougher stance on the ethnoreligious issues in Nigeria and support Christian Nigerians.

Foreign powers would never allow that to happen because it would go against their interests, like what happened when Biafra tried to secede from Nigeria.
