Why Do Nigerians/africans Look Down On Younger People. by Nobody: 1:08pm On Feb 13, 2013
I have had quite a very fast life,i have been the youngest male with only a few girls in my class younger from my primary school till now that am in a university,one thing i have experienced through out my life is being hated on cause being my age.Some would expect u to accept whatever ill treatment they met out on u just because they are older.
Even on NL u see comments like 'how old are u' and other rubbish.
You would also see them talking about very young celebs like Wizkid and Davido in derogatory terms because of their age,then i get to wonder if these 'old fools' have never been young,maybe they were born aged 40.
Its so backward of such people!Thats why i really dont respect some people even if they are way older than me.
