Why are Nigerians so obsessed with money?

was thinking about this today, Nigeria seems to have a reputation for things like 419's and money scamming frauds. But also the general lust for money seems quite apparent.

Does anyone know why Nigeria in particular seems to have this fasicnation with money and riches, as opposed to say Ghana which appears to be relatively normal.

I don't know but tbh it does seem to be a big part of their modern culture. But at the same time the majority of the ones I know are people who are living here and going to uni here so they already have a certain amount of money and are therefore more likely to be obsessed with it.

Actually, obsessed is too strong.

Nigerians genuinely believe money will solve your problems and they are right in a lot of cases in that country.

Police wont trouble you if you pay them.

You can literally have whatever woman u want with enough cash.

the judge will bly ur case

you can buy a driving licence/passport

rich people in naij even pay others to do national service for them.

The power money gives u in that country because of the corruption is mad.
