There is something about us Nigerians. Or maybe it's not Nigerians. Maybe it's just a people thing and that just happened to be person I dealt with. Maybe I'm just sensitive because I foolishly have higher expectations of Nigerians but who am I to "expect" anything of anybody anyway? You know what I mean? It's my fault for thinking people should behave a certain way. They don't owe me that. Anyway I digress.
Back to the story I was going to tell. So I'm back in school taking online classes. And in one of the classes I'm taking , we had to do two group projects. In my group was a fellow Nigerian. However we did not acknowledge each other which was ok. Trust me sometimes it's easier. Just because they are fellow Nigerians does not mean you have anything in common with them.
At the end of the class, he sends out an email acknowledging some of the group members as "champions" of the project. Ok so maybe it's not that big a deal but everybody worked hard. Why you got to be like that? Give props to some people and not to others?
Of course he did not give me props but that's not the issue :)
