A Swedish-Nigerian lady has stirred heated debate on social media after she claimed that what Nigerians do best is to repopulate the world.
No place in the world without Nigerian mix heritage
In a viral video shared on X (formerly Twitter), the lady explained that Nigerians are found in almost every corner of the earth. According to her, it is difficult to find any place in the world without a person who is either fully Nigerian or of mixed Nigerian heritage.
She said: “Guys, I’m not going to lie as a fellow Nigerian, I am half Swedish and half Nigerian. I feel like one thing Nigerians do really well is repopulate this earth because there is almost every single mix of Nigerian exist on this earth.”poo
I won’t doubt that there is Nigerian mix with South Korea
Speaking further, she added that if someone were to tell her that Nigerians have mixed with almost every other nationality, she would not doubt it.
“If someone tells me that there is every mix of Nigerian and South Korean, Nigerian and other ethnicity in the world, I will fully believe the person,” she said.
She stressed that she is convinced that every ethnicity on earth has at least some form of Nigerian mix. According to her, this is something Nigerians should be proud of.
“Nigerians need to applaud themselves because one thing Nigerians do best is to breed and repopulate the earth,” she added.
Public reactions
The video has since attracted numerous reactions from social media users.
One user, Billpoint, wrote: “Nigerians do mix with many ethnic groups worldwide due to their significant global diaspora and increasing presence in many countries, including forming communities with various nationalities and intermingling with people in large cities within Nigeria itself.
“The term ‘Nigerian’ refers to citizenship and encompasses people from over 250 ethnic groups within Nigeria, but these citizens interact and form relationships with diverse populations globally and locally.”
Another user, Adebanjo, disagreed with the generalisation, saying: “Well, we’ve proven time and again that we’re more than just numbers. Check all sectors you’ll see Nigerians doing great.”
Also reacting, JP_CEO commented: “In fact, it is what blacks do; that is why the white took our fathers because they were just baby production managers.”
The video continues to draw mixed opinions, with some Nigerians laughing off the comment as a joke while others insist that Nigerians should be recognised for much more than simply their population strength.
