RE: Freelancing and Socializing in Nigeria - Untangled Knots #1

in Cross Culture4 years ago

Buka definitely sounds unique to the west and I'm sure the north would have a different name for local food be vendor. Often common in the west is iya Sadia hahaha but I don't know how these things works in the east even if I'm from the east. There's a lot of cultural diversity and so many unique things about this country. I'm sure I wasn't able to say it all, but then, let's see how next time on the show would be like.

Sort:  

Yes, true!
There are lots of cultural diversities.

However, amidst these differences, there are obvious and fundamental basis for unity of all the different "peoples" that make up Nigeria. Well, this reminds me of a course I did during my first degree days, "Nigerian Peoples and Culture."

The basis of this unity isn't obvious now because that wasn't the binding force, neither was it the reason behind the amalgamation. Rather, the amalgamation was done for a purely economic reason. And Nigeria is still operating with this faulty default setting.

Well, many things to say and I can't express all in this comment section.

I can't wait to see what the next episode/show offers.
