I don't know if it might be the same in other countries but being a nigerian is one of the most toughest things and if I am permitted to, I can say more reasons why I don't like being a nigerian than being one but for this weekly topic in the Hive Naija community which aim to fuel the reason to love being a Nigerian.

Taking a deep thought about this, one of the reasons why I would love being a Nigerian is because of the diverse cultures. There are so many tribes and different languages and yet we still strive to maintain unity. I can say this is something one can be proud of saying about Nigeria.
If I am to think of another reason why I love being a Nigerian, I would say because of the morals/discipline that most of the families in Nigeria carries. Most Nigerian parents (although not all) gives their children good home training that would impact their future. Almost every grown ups in Nigeria can narrate a story of the kind of discipline they most have faced while they were young.

Coming to music, I think this would be another reason why I love being a Nigerian. There are so many talented young lads in the music industry making nice music. Although, I listen mostly to gospel music than any kinds of music, there are still many Nigerian gospel musicians that makes great songs that gives goosebumps feel. We have musicians like Nathaniel Bassey, Tim Godfrey, Dunsin oyekan, Frank Edward, Victoria Orenze, Mercy Chinwo, Preye Odede and many more others.

I don't know if being born in this country is a good reason to love this country. I always have this thought that being born in this country means I was born in here for a reason, which is certainly to make a positive impact to this country.
