When Nigerians and Americans collide as nigerians call it (jam). Hilarity ensues: Some humerus observations:
FOOD FIGHTS Americans: pizza(sauce and cheese flying everywhere). Pie: (especially creamed-filled or fruit pies 🥧 tacos: (crunchy shells and soft fillings make for a messy fight). Nigerians 🇳🇬 :you call that a meal? Where is the pounded yam(white any molded, heavy and soft most suitable for mess😁
Americans 🇺🇸 :you mean you eat fufu with your hands? That's adventurous.
DANCE BATTLE NIGERIANS 🇳🇬 : Azonto, poco Lee shaku Shakur. AMERICANS 🇺🇸 : Gangnam style
MUSIC PREFERENCES Nigerians 🇳🇬 : afrobeats all day Americans 🇺🇸 :country road, take me home.
Despite this differences both cultures share a love for food, good music and laughter. Who knows maybe one day, we will see a 🇳🇬 -America 🇺🇸 fusion cruisine Jollof burger and suya tacos? 🍴😂
FESTIVAL AND CELEBRATION
Nigerians 🇳🇬 : colorful cultural festival like oshogbo,eyo, esun. Americans 🇺🇸 :independence day, Halloween Thanksgiving, diverse cultural celebration.
If Nigerians were to try halloween we would be referred to as winch. (witch).
This differences highlight the unique aspects of each culture, showcasing the beauty of diversity and understanding of understanding and appreciation.
COMMUNICATION STYLE Americans: uh hi what's your name? Nigerians: watin be your name?
Let's dive deeper GREETINGS
Americans: hey "what's up?
Nigerians: how is your family, your parents, siblings. Oya greet them for me " Nigerians love to make sure all of the family members have been asked about 🙌
FAMILY GATHERING Americans:"just me, my parents and my cat" Nigerians: "come, and meet my 50 cousins"
RELATIONSHIP In America 🇺🇸 it is normal for teenagers to be in a relationship, you can see a boy or girl alone in a room and the parent won't say shit. IN Nigeria 🇳🇬 as a teenager if you are caught with a girl or boy alone in a room, just pray to survive the night especially if your parents are warriors (they don't mess around).
IN America 🇺🇸 if a teenager tells his parents "mom dad I love him or her and I will leave the house if you don't allow us to be" the parent will allow them. IN Nigeria 🇳🇬, Tell them you are in love with your lover, and if they don't allow you to be together you will leave the house their response will be shocking even to you 😂😂 the child.
Americans 🇺🇸 : they do some activities like kiss or grab whereby a guy or girl choose between to kiss or to grab a stranger in the ass. Nigerians 🇳🇬 : if you are are caught in the street, you can will be referred to as oscroh (prostitute) and will be chased away.
Americans has more liberty but in Nigeria you are always watched by your parent, parents friends or anyone at all.
But the two countries has been a lot of things in common
