      @@ovie10 I'm not Nigerian)But why is it that as a Nigerian starts speaking I immediately know that speaker is Nigerian??. I work with a lottt of them and have gotten used to their accent. I know a Trini, A Guyanese, a Bajan and few others just by being around them daily. Does Nigeria have Yoruba and Igbo accent(so I'll pay closer attention)?.

    80% of the Jamaican slaves came from Nigeria .The rest came from the Congo and Ireland. Jamaican accent is an Irish accent. The dialect is a blend of everyone. Our stuck up attitude comes from the British. Our sense of humor is from the Irish. They makes jokes about themselves and never a dull moment like Jamaicans. Our resourcefulness, can do anything attitude is Nigerian .

      @@ngongo7895 Whoa, youre wrong! Nigerians have English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Arabic first and last names. Abdullahi, Fernadez, Domingo, Suarez, Rodriguez, Anderson, Da Silva, Ibn Abbas, Johnson etc think of the name, Nigerians bear it. A lot of former slaves from all over the world either bought their freedom or escaped then returned to Nigeria in the 16th, 17th century.

    I am not too keen in interacting with Nigerians in Jamaica. They seems to be over qualified for the positions they hold. It seems that they sometimes purchase or manufacture their degrees. They are also the forerunner to lottery scamming. They have attempted to scam me in the past.

      " Nigerians seems to be over qualified for the positions they hold " ? As much as you're trying to not come out right and show your closed- mindedness it's still seeping through.
