Well the tables have turned.
This time Harrison took to the streets to find out…
What the Béninoise think about the Nigerians based in their country.
“What do you think about Nigerian’s over here in Benin Republic?” Harrison put the question to the public and here is what they had to say…
“Most of the Nigerians wey dey Benin are wicked… inside business Nigerians they dey disappoint…Policeman no dey stop anybody for checkpoint before but because of this,immigration dey for border, immigration dey for Badagry, immigration dey for Bagi, na this kind thing wey dey happen to Beninese in Nigeria…na so we sef go dey hold them,” one man explains.
“Maybe na the tongue wey dey different. You see for here we dey say ‘s’il vous plait (please)’ but Nigerians dey say ‘HEY YOU COME HERE!’” the same man adds.
“I think Nigerians are good people, especially those who know why they are here…those who pursue their primary assignment accordingly,” one man responded.
“Some of the Nigerian girls I know are very good while some are ungrateful,” one lady shakes her head as she tells Harrison about her impression of Nigerians.
“Good people dey inside but sometimes it dey wey somebody dey come where I dey carry am go for border, wey he say I for wait for him…he dey go bank, come take money, he dey go and I no dey see am again,” one bike driver speaks from experience.
“I think Nigerian people are very nice, I have a lot of friends in Nigeria,” one lady says.
“Some Nigerians, when their parents give them money to spend on their school fees and rent, they spend the money on parties instead,” one landlord tells Harrison.
“…they just dey find trouble…but if Nigerians come, everything go dey better for Benin,” one man states.

SHARE this video with friends and family.
But it’s true, Nigerians don’t know how to address someone politely in
English (but are polite in their native tongue, for example the Yorubas
sound more polite with manners when speaking Yoruba )
Please may I do your English subtitles for free? I dislike seeing typos and
errors in subtitles sha. BattaBox, you fine pass this now :)
Great balance Battabox, thanks for getting the Beninese people’s
version…The majority of people interviewed said NICE THINGS about the
Nigerians whereas the majority of Nigerians described the Beninese as
WICKED…My thoughts are whenever u are a foreigner in another country SHOW
RESPECT for the Natives and their culture and usually it is reciprocated…
Lol I laugh in biafran. Beninese. Their pidgin English it’s us that taught
them. Their Economy….we run it. They should just park well. They should
stick to their French language lol
to hell with what they think! they’ll have one bad encounter with a
Nigerian and start running their mouth, but when the REAL french people
come to their land and treat them like peasants they don’t care, they’ll
still go about shamelessly referring to themselves as “French.”
Nigeria and Benin are two voodoo / juju nations
as human nature is, there are good Nigerians as well as wicked Nigerians.
The guy complaining about the landlords in Benin in the last video. You’ve
heard it from the landlord himself.
They are nasty people with nasty attitude they are surely ungrateful and
surly backwards
They sound like they don’t know how to talk to others with respect they are
very disappointing people very
