See Turkish people wey no be oyibo and fake oyibo wey no knw where belong to. Come dey do person racist.. Turkish people wey be fifths grade oyibo dey do racist.. Chai black people don suffer…
This is what I said here yesterday. You have to be mentally strong and prayerful to live outside Nigeria.
The best place to live is Africa but our leaders are the problem of their people.
What’s so special about fake Oyinbo and real Oyinbo? Their are not better than us. These Oyinbo can not do without Chinese and Black people but some people believe that Oyinbo people are the best.
If you know you know o. Nigeria government, please do your job o. No place like home. Ire o. God bless Nigeria!!!
