You want to remain jobless? Keep saying you’re from Nigeria.
An X user @Web_Dad shared this controversial statement on his X account.
Here’s how he put it in his words.
“If you want to remain jobless in this space keep mentioning you are a Nigerian, lol.
The last job I managed to bag as a community manager, I had to lie that I was from South Africa to secure it.
It’s sad, honestly, but this is just the situation of the country right now.”
Responding to his tweet, Maryam said , @MaryamAleshin – “I will forever be loyal to Nigeria.But for now, I’m a Norwegian”

@XArchangel12 – “I got rejected yesterday for being a Nigerian too, its really not fair to us.”
@babaBen101 – “Not every time.
I once told a founder I am a Nigerian
Was the reason he gave me the job.
He said we have the zeal no other country has for web3.
We always want to complete the job even when we are exhausted.
And guess what?
All his employees are Nigerians except the co-founder.”
@thisspaull – “Southy na africa. Naija na africa.You know lie, you just had to change demography for a while.
Job is done.
Project is happy
You are paid.”
@CryptoWiseGirl – “Very true.
Being a Nigerian is by default a disadvantage; no matter how knowledgeable or skilled you are.”
Could this replies be honest replies?
Does being a Nigerian a barrier

You can answer that question yourself.
