I Wish Nigeria Was A Better Country – Nigerian Singer, Simi

Simisola Kosoko, the Afrobeats star, who is better known as Simi, has expressed pride in her Nigerian identity, noting that what she loves most about the country is the unique spirit of its people — something she believes cannot be replicated by foreigners.
The Joromi crooner, however, said she wished Nigeria was a better country, adding that if the country was working citizens won’t be migrating en-masse.
Speaking in a recent episode of the 90s Baby Show, Simi said, “My favourite thing about Nigeria is just the spirit of Nigerians. You can’t replicate it.
“Nobody else can be a Nigerian other than a Nigerian. Even when they are faking African accents in Hollywood movies, they never actually fake a Nigerian accent.
“They always fake East Africa and South African accents. Being a Nigerian doesn’t just come as naturally, it just feels like home.
“That is why I wish the country was better. Because I feel like no one would want to leave.”
