One of the most confusing things about lagos in particular is that APC strongholds are treated THE WORST by the political establishment. No light or water, zero waste management, constant bouts of violence, terrible schools and hospitals, state sanctioned extortion etc.

the way to showcase an heritage is not dancing on the street of another man's land... rather, it is by raising an army of people from that heritage who are notable in science, engineering, manufacturing, medicine, history, and politics. Until Nigeria takes quality education....

A heartbreaking tragedy. Fifteen-year-old Ghanaian Jarvis Frimpong was reportedly shot dead in the Bronx by teenagers who had bullied him. His father revealed that Jarvis had only arrived in the United States a year ago. Watching his father break down in tears is absolutely devastating. A young life cut short, a family shattered, and a future stolen. This is truly heartbreaking. 💔

I have written about this before. It boils down to identity shock. In Nigeria for e.g, you are part of a massive black majority where your race is invisible. Abroad, you suddenly become a minority within a minority, stripped of your default social standing.
Sociologists call this reactionary essentialism. When migrants feel alienated in the host country, they over-index on lineage politics back home or in the host country. They attempt to solve their diaspora powerlessness by becoming vocal internet warlords in home-country politics.
It just so happens that like most humans, they fall back to the politics that is against them. Because they believe that if they associate with such politics, it can provide some shield for them. "I'm not like the others", "I am responsible & different". If they shout it loud enough, maybe the racists would leave them alone.
Unfortunately for them, the racists do not care about how subservient you are. Their problem is your race, and it is immutable. You cannot integrate enough for someone who doesn't want you there in the first place.
