New York City, wetin dey sup? It was a joy to commemorate 34 years of the Nigerian Day Parade alongside the many Nigerian New Yorkers who fill our city with life.
From the entrepreneurs whose businesses strengthen our neighborhoods, to the sounds of Afrobeats pouring out of graduation parties in Southeast Queens, and the aroma of Agege bread calling out to passersby in Brooklyn — the impact of Nigerian New Yorkers is felt across the five boroughs.
Our city is richer in culture, stronger in community, and more vibrant because of your contributions.

Story on @fijnigeria tomorrow, Thursday and on Friday.
"We are not into illegal mining... Niger State Civil Defence Corps don't have the right to shoot at us... We are under 18, and we are not allowed to be taken inside a cell... Heat cannot kill a gold miner..."
Following the deaths of miners in Niger State custody, a witness has called for justice and a full investigation.
Let’s be honest, Nigerians are the smartest people to scam. How can you move from £20 to £70 for a service you failed to deliver.
