Are you aware that Nigerians are setting the pace worldwide and becoming the standard by which others measure themselves? If you watch and listen to BBC, CNN, MSNBC, SKY, Aljazeera and the rest of the mainstream media of doom, they will have you believing that Nigerians are all criminals. With accolades like drug dealers and smugglers, fraudsters, and generally untrustworthy. 
These deplorable accolades originated from the mainstream media principle of perception deception. Based on understating many of the remarkable achievements of Nigerians and overstating the crimes committed by a tiny minority that is less than 1% of Nigerians living abroad.
However, I beg to differ from the unwarranted and undeserved labels bestowed upon us by my dear media of deception. I will list many reasons why all Nigerians should be proud of themselves. As for me, proud to be a Black man, African and a Nigerian.
You see, happiness is a perfume one must pour it on self for others to appreciate it. Here is what CNN, BBC, Aljazeera and western media will not tell you about Nigerians: Do you know that??
Archaeologists of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, in their excavations carried out in the early 1970s, discovered huge stacks of various kinds of stone tools – hand axes, knives, picks, cleavers - in the Igbo town of Ugwu-Ele (‘Hill of Ele’), Isuikwuato, Abia State, Nigeria. The archaeologists concluded that the tools spanned from the Early, Middle to Late Stone Age (at least 500,000 – 80,000 B.C.)
The British member of the UNN Archaeology department at the time, Professor D. David, concluded that the site was the largest stone axe factory in the world! We are not aware of any other in the world with such an enormous amount of stone axes and other tools. To learn more click here.
The location of modern-day Nigeria used to be one of the powerhouses of the Niger-Korfordian language groups.
The Yoruba and Igbo God Orunmila devised a computer compatible binary coding system to make retrieval of the Divine Messages (Ifa) easier, occurring thousands of years before the emergence of computer consciousness in the so-called modern man. Ifa is preserved in binary coded format and is output Parable - Format.
"Ifa Oracle divination is based on the square of 16=16x16=256, 2^8 corresponding to the vertices of an 8-dimensional hyper-cube and to the binary 2-choice Clifford algebra C1(8) and so to related ones such as C1(8)xC1(8) = C1(16). Since the number of sub-hypercubes in an 8-dimensional hypercube is 6,561 =81x81= 3^8. The Ifa Oracle has N=8 ternary 3-structure as well as binary 2-structure." To learn more click here.
Recent archaeological research has shown that people were already living in Nigeria (specifically in Iwo-Eleru), as early as 11,000 BCE, and perhaps earlier at Ugwuelle-Uturu (Okigwe) in south-eastern Nigeria. To learn more click here.
It is not a coincidence that Wawa and Nkannu are the aboriginal clan-names Nsukka and the people of Enugu state! As recorded in Egyptian history as having taken place ca. 8,970 B.C. during the wars of Horus and Seth! To learn more click here.
The Dufuna boat predated the Egyptian Solar Boat and Noah by over 2000 years, Moses and most of the Biblical and Islamic Prophets, and Jesus over 6500 years. The age of the boat has been put at about 8000 - 8500 years old (6000 - 6500 BCE), thus, becoming the oldest boat in Africa and the second oldest on earth. To learn more click here.
The Oshuru object in Lejja is in the shape of the celestial disc/mound, flanked by a crescent-shaped pile of slag rounded into a circle around the disc. The Egyptian Book of the Dead says that the Duat city of Abydos in Heliopolis was called Busiris – (House of Osiris).
The word Busiris – (House of Osiris) is an Igbo expression, meaning Obu Oshuru – (House of Oshuru) or (House of Osiris). Professor Achonolu expanded that Osiris, the Lord of the Egyptian Duat, was the Lord of the Lejja smelters. To learn more click here.
Zachariah Sitchen reveals that the Sumerian term Dun/Duni (which survives to this day in Dunu Oka village in Lejja) is equivalent to the Assyrian word Ka’ini (the root of the word Canaan) and that Sumerian and Assyrian texts maintained that “Ashur is the Lord of Duni”.
According to Prof Achonolu Duni referred to Dunu Oka, and Ashur is the title of the Egyptian god Osiris and the origin of his name. Osiris is the Sun Disc. To learn more click here.

The kings of Heliopolis bear two Plumes on their heads, a white-feathered crown, a flail, a U-forked staff. (The fact that Osiris wears two plumes as on his conical hat, shaped like Igbo Okwu agu, and he carries the Igbo metal staff (Alo) and flies whisk (Nza), as seen in all his images in Egyptian texts, looked like an Igbo royalty)?

The upward-slanting stripe above the eye (left) is the Sumerian Ogam letter M. Added to the crescent/sun-disc, both create the word MA-GAN. Magan was a famous Sumerian ancient city always mentioned along with Egypt in Sumerian texts, but the identity of the City and the people is shrouded in uncertainty. Prof Achonolu asserted that the famous NOK slanting eyes with a holed pupil symbolises MAGAN. To learn more click here.

Menes was called Aha or Aka, a title which in Igbo tradition implies that he was a dwarf (Aka Ushi) and a goddess worshiper (for it is the Igbo astronomical symbol of the dot enclosed in the circle).
The 2nd king after Menes used the title Attah. The 3rd Pharaoh of Menes dynasty used the title Gani Eri; the 4th used the title - Bag Eri, including the 5th using the title Dan in Egyptian seals, translated as Dun Du in Indian king-lists of the same kings from a common heritage of humanity. Dun Du can be said to be an abbreviation of Dunu Idu. Gani Eri equates to Shar Eri, meaning King Eri. To learn more click here.
The symbols denoting the Oduduwa alphabet, numbers and punctuation marks were discovered in a shrine located in Ile-Ife, Western Nigeria.
The enormous earthwork called Benin Walls, also known to be the lengthiest in the world, was constructed by the Edo people of the defunct Great Kingdom of Benin. An ancient marvel on par with world wonders like the Taj Mahal of India or the Great Wall of China, it was constructed to secure and protect the kingdom from invaders.
Work first began around 800 AD and continued up until around 1460. The structure on completion, comprised of moats and ramparts, covered a border distance of about 16,000 kilometres, the 16,000 sq. kilometres and enclosed about 6,500 square kilometres of community land in a mosaic of more than 500 interconnected settlements. Altogether this was double the length of the Ming Great Wall of China, which measured 8,851 kilometres.
The new official length of 21,196 kilometres was announced on June 5th 2012, after this discovery of the Walls of Benin displaced the Great Wall of China under its old measurements.
The location of the old Benin city is still the present-day location of Benin city in Edo state, south-west Nigeria. When the Europeans first arrived at the Benin kingdom in the late 15th Century, they were astonished by the wealth, quality of life and organisation. And at the same time, London was a city awash with thievery, murder, prostitution, Bribery and a thriving black market. London had a population of 50,000 in 1500 compared to 80,000-100,000 in Benin (Bondarenko 2001: 123–125).
Houses and streets plan incorporates a mathematical pattern unknown to Europeans at the time. Initially, they thought it was disorganised, and the streets were broad and ran straight as further as one can visualise. Benin was one of the first ancient cities to have some street lights. These were high huge metal lamps placed around the City, with a wick fuelled by palm oil enabling illumination at night.
Amina was a warrior queen who ruled Zaria Emirate in Kaduna state, Northwestern Nigeria 400 years ago in 1610. Google and see what she means to Africa.
60% of Nigerians in the US have college degrees. This is far above the American national average of 30%.
Nigerians in the US are one of the highest earners, typically earning 25% more than the median US income of $53k.
In Ivy League schools in Europe and America, Nigerians routinely outperform their peers from other nations.
A Nigerian family, The Imafidon family, has officially been named the smartest family in the UK.
The designer of the famous car, Chevrolet Volt, Jelani Aliyu, is a super talented Nigerian from Sokoto State.
The World’s fastest supercomputer was designed by a world-renowned inventor and scientist, Philip Emeagwali, a full-blown Nigerian whose patency was awarded in 2015. This means Nigeria has the patency to the world’s fastest computer: a Nigerian.
Nigerians, Aliko Dangote Aliko Dangote GCON (born 10 April 1957) is a Nigerian businessman, investor, and owner of the Dangote Group.
South Africa couldn’t have ended apartheid & achieved Black rule if not for the leadership role Nigeria played.
Of the 3 South African Presidents who ruled after apartheid, two of them once
lived in Nigeria under asylum. Both Nelson Mandela (60s) and Thabo Mbeki (70s) lived in Nigeria before becoming President of South Africa. We gave financial support, human support, boycotted an Olympics and our politicians, musicians and activists campaigned relentlessly.
Nigeria spent over $3 Billion and lost hundreds of soldiers to end the wars in both Liberia and Sierra Leone which the world ignored because they have no oil.
When there was a coup in São Tomé and Príncipe in 2003, Nigeria restored the elected President back to power.
We gave monetary gifts to Ireland during our oil boom and built a statue for France free of charge. We are not poor blacks. Nigeria is rich and does not have to be lied to.
The first television station in Africa was NTA Ibadan (1960) long before Ireland has their RTE station.
Wherever you look in this great country, Nigeria, heroes abound both now and in our recent and ancient past. If all you do is listen to mainstream Western media, you’ll not get the full & true picture of your Nigerian heritage.
On the 7th of May, 2016 at Howard University in Washington D.C history was made. Out of 96 graduating Doctor of Pharmacy candidates, 43 of them were Nigerians and out of 27 awards given, 16 went to Nigerians.
The entire world still envies our uniqueness as a NATION, living together despite our ethnic diversity. One single country with over 400 languages. They will only tell you how Nigerians are scammers and cheats, how Nigerians are into drugs overseas. If you don’t blow your trumpet, no one will blow it for you.
Do not listen to any leader who says Nigerians are criminals, no matter who they are, their status or position in government. We’re not a nation of scammers, drugs & corruption, but a people with a verifiable track record of greatness.
There are over 180,000,000 Nigerians worldwide and only about 250,000 of these figures have traceable criminal records. This is about 0.14% of our entire national population in the last 20 years: nothing close to 1%. Shame on global media because these tactics are also the same for, Black people, cultures or countries, especially the brutal version in relation to African Americans.
Listen Nigeria, don't let anybody woo you into believing that you are a criminal just because you are a Nigerian. Nigerians are NOT criminals. You are NOT a criminal. You are top-notch; second to none around the world.
Sadly, the British Government blew up most of the Benin walls under the guise of Punitive Expedition in 1897, and also hundreds of Step Pyramids on Nsunde Hills in Enugu State, Nigeria, in the 50s. It was the largest concentration of step pyramids south of the Sahara desert.
We are all infected with propagandist spells based on spiffs like rolling a spliff and making a fist which caused a rift, thereby costing us the feast while sifting the yeast and grabbing the wrist of the beast residing in the east.
Declaring to our noddle to clear their oodles while pretending to pet their poodles, we are now at Rome in our dome, The quest for the chest in their nest is an investment in the rest, We jest will test the pests.
Shape-shifting media Skink I have spotted you long before you saw me. So, if you turn into a python, I will turn into big sharp needles. If confronted by a lion, I will turn into an elephant through your shape-shifting exploit.
If you turned into an elephant, I would turn into soldier-ants.
Turn into a fire, and I will turn into a river.
Upon you turning into a rock, will make me turn into lava.
My blood is as bitter as the spleen and inedible.
There is nothing to be gained here but pain that will linger in your brain, unable to be washed out with rain.
Oh, media of gloom the weapon of mass deception, the cesspool of human misery, temple of fear.
My dear Media, with this spell, I banished thee.
VIVA BLACK PEOPLE!!! VIVA ITIOPI!!! VIVA AFRICANS!!! VIVA NAIJA!!!
