Step aside Nigerian Americans! The Indians are here! And they are here to stay.
The narrative today is that Nigerian immigrants no longer occupy the enviable
position of being the most successful and/or the most educated group of
immigrants in the United States of America.
According to available official statistics, and as at 2015, approximately
376,000 Nigerian immigrants and their families live in the United States of
America. These include first and second generation Nigerian Americans. US Census
Bureau data reveals that Nigeria is the largest single source of African
migration into the United States. Unofficially, the word on the streets of
America is that of every five immigrants from Africa, three of them are likely
to be Nigerians.
They are found in every walk of life (academia, business, healthcare, private
security services and even sports), and they live in major American metros and
college towns. Talking of sports, the exploits of Nigerian-born athletes on
American pitches remain indelible in the psyche of the average American sports
enthusiasts. Or, how can any American forget the remarkable feats of
basketball’s 2008 Hall of Fame inductee Hakeem (The Dream) Olajuwon, the
formidable American football running back (RB) Christian (Nigerian Nightmare)
Emeka Okoye, among a number of others?
A study by the Migration Policy Institute (MPI) shows that the size of the
Nigerian-born population in the United States has grown from a small base since
1980, when the number of estimated Nigerian immigrants was 25,000. Since 2015,
Nigerian immigrants have accounted for over 0.6% of the overall foreign-born
population in the United States. The data also shows that half of these Nigerian
immigrants arrived in America before 2000.
The most frequently asked question about Nigerian Americans in the United
States, in comparison to their counterparts from other countries has been: “What
is the secret of their success?” – a topic that has been a subject of
controversy and debate in the portals of American institutions of higher
learning, restaurants, pubs and such other public fora. This perception of
Nigerian Americans actually gained traction in 2011, when Amy Chua, a Harvard
professor otherwise known as the “Tiger Mom”, listed Nigerian Americans as high
achievers in her best-selling seminal literary work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
However, a study recently conducted by The African Times/USA shows that Nigerian
Americans no longer belong to Professor Amy Chua’s list of high achievers in
America. And why so? And what happened? The answers can be found in the data
obtained and now at the disposal of The Times’ research editors.
Nevertheless, Amy Chua’s position of over 12 years ago has however continually
but erroneously been reinforced and referenced by the likes of Candace Owens,
the controversial American conservative social critic and a handful of online
publications, who still swear by the narrative that Nigerian immigrants are
among the most successful groups of immigrants in the United States. On the
basis of major indices by which the success of any group is calculated in the
United States, including educational attainment, income-per-capita, percentage
in the labour force, and top management positions in corporate America, social
status, etc., the existing narrative is clearly off course. To support their
claim, some of the proponents of this narrative base their argument on the 2008
US Census Bureau data, which shows that 29% of the Nigerian American population
over the age of 25 years hold an undergraduate degree, compared to the 11% of
the overall US population, and that the average Nigerian American immigrant
boast of a median household income of $62,351, compared to $56,617 nationally,
as of 2015.
As grand as the Census Bureau figures may sound, the problem here is that those
figures are outdated and, at best, misleading. The other danger is that when The
African Times/USA research editors interpreted the report, they concluded that
the figures were cherry-picked and arrived at without any scientific analysis of
the data as it pertains to other immigrant communities in America, which include
the Indians, Mexicans, Pakistanis, Chinese, Iranians, Taiwanese, Turkish,
Russians, South Africans, Ethiopians, among many others.
> A subsequent data released by the US Census Bureau on educational attainment
> of immigrants groups for 2016 showed that Indian-born immigrants were the
> highest and 10 other countries had higher graduate attainment than Nigerian
> Americans. The Nigerians were also outranked by immigrants that identified as
> having Iranian, Bulgarian and Russian ancestry. Furthermore, in the area of
> median household incomes for 2016, Africa Check, a fact-checking outlet, also
> found out that 30 other countries were ahead of Nigeria…
Poring through the same volume of data made available by the US Census Bureau
and for the same period under review, The African Times/USA found the claim that
Nigerians are the most educated immigrants in the US as unsubstantiated and
patently false, as is the claim that this group of immigrants as being in the
class of the most successful immigrants in the United States. In The Times’
findings from the Census Board data, there were seven other countries whose
nationals boast of a higher percentage of first degree holders or other higher
degrees than Nigerian Americans. Indian immigrants top this list, with a 44%
aggregate as against Nigerian Americans, who came in at a distant 29%!
A subsequent data released by the US Census Bureau on educational attainment of
immigrants groups for 2016 showed that Indian-born immigrants were the highest
and 10 other countries had higher graduate attainment than Nigerian Americans.
The Nigerians were also outranked by immigrants that identified as having
Iranian, Bulgarian and Russian ancestry. Furthermore, in the area of median
household incomes for 2016, Africa Check, a fact-checking outlet, also found out
that 30 other countries were ahead of Nigeria, whose figure was $62,351. For the
data on diaspora groups with graduate degrees or higher degrees in 2016, India
came in first at 44%, Taiwan followed at 39.7%, France at 36.5%, Russia at
36.4%, Bulgaria at 33.1%, Spain at 32.1%, Turkey at 31.7%, China at 29.5%,
Malaysia at 29.2%, Iran at 28.7% and Nigeria at 27.9%.
In the more recent data of 2021 released by the US Census Bureau on educational
attainment data from 2011 to 2021, the percentage of adults of 25 years and
above with bachelor’s degrees or higher degrees increased from 34.0% to 41.9%
for the non-hispanic White population; from 19.9% to 28.1% for the Black
Population; 50.3% to 61.0% for the Asian population; and 14.1% to 20.6% for the
Hispanic population. This shows that in the last 10 years, the Asians in America
have been ahead of other immigrant communities in the United States. Additional
data made available by the US Census Bureau’s American Community Survey
(2017-2021) shows that the percentage of White people with Bachelor’s degrees or
higher degrees is 35.5%, Black people had 23.3%, Native Americans – 15.5%,
Asians – 55.6% and people of Hispanic or Latino origin – 18.4%.
In another 2021 data analysis made available by MPI, about 45.3 million
immigrants lived in the United States in 2021, which is the highest since census
records have been kept. In 2021, immigrants were 13.6% of the total US
population. Approximately 80% of immigrant adults from India had a Bachelor’s
degree or more in 2021, more than any other country of origin. Other top
countries include UAE with 78%; Saudi Arabia, 77%; Taiwan, 73%; Bulgaria, France
and Singapore with 67%. Russia had 66%; and Nigeria, 62%. Ethiopia had 32%;
Ghana, 42%; Kenya at 46%; South Africa at 64%; Cameroon at 63%; Sudan at 46%;
Zimbabwe at 63%; Uganda at 64%; Zambia at 52%; Tanzania, 55%; and Guinea at 44%.
The Times’ findings actually showed that South Africa (64%), and NOT Nigeria
(62%) is the current leading African country by educational attainment indices
in the US, while Indians are the overall leading most educated group of
immigrants in the United States of America.

As one indication of their successes, Indian-Americans are topping the charts in
terms of income. The median family income among Indian Americans between the
ages of 25 and 55 stood at $133,130 in 2019, well above the median income of
$86,400 among White Americans. When compared to other Asian Americans, the
Indians have higher incomes and according to the data, they earned more at
$133,130, followed by other Asians at $97,600. White Americans earned $86,400,
and others earned $68,000. Hispanics earned a median family income of $60,050
and Blacks earned $53,800.
Our findings also revealed that Indian immigrants are currently the ones taking
over the top echelons of major American corporations. From Google to Microsoft,
Twitter and other high tech companies with the highest market capitalisation in
the United States, the Indians are routinely being head-hunted as CEOs and heads
of business affairs in these blue chip companies. This has since been confirmed
by no less a player in the US technology space than Elon Musk, who in a recent
interview talked of how America has benefited from the influx of Indian talents
and expats into the United States.
From the last official data, Indians, NOT Nigerians, have become the most
successful immigrants in the United States, and among the overall African
immigrant population, South Africans, and NOT Nigerians, are the most successful
in the United States, among who, of course, are Elon Musk and Dr Patrick
Soon-Shiong, a South African-born American transplant surgeon, businessman,
biochemist and publisher of the Los Angeles Times, who is of Asian extraction.
The big questions now under discussions are: Why is this so? And why are the
Indians outdoing other immigrant groups in America? Why are immigrants of Asian
descent performing better overall than their African immigrant counterparts?
> First, the Indians who arrive on the shores of the United States come better
> prepared, armed with the requisite foundational skill sets, and second, they
> arrive to a well-defined community of their kind in many parts of the United
> States. Most interesting is that these Indian immigrants are products of a
> long-term and significant investment programme by the Indian government in
> human capital development and in such education programmes as STEM, an
> investment made as far back as in the 1960s.
For answers, The African Times/USA research editors unearthed the following
interesting information. First, the Indians who arrive on the shores of the
United States come better prepared, armed with the requisite foundational skill
sets, and second, they arrive to a well-defined community of their kind in many
parts of the United States. Most interesting is that these Indian immigrants are
products of a long-term and significant investment programme by the Indian
government in human capital development and in such education programmes as
STEM, an investment made as far back as in the 1960s. The result is that what
the Americans are reaping today with a tangible crossover effects on the Indian
economy and society was a seed sown many years ago.

Strategic to the quick and rapid integration into their new environment, are the
existence of fully functional Indian satellite settlements throughout the United
States that immediately provide safety nets for the new arrivals. Consequently,
many Indian and Asian immigrants benefit from well established networks which
provide them with the needed support and guidance. Juxtapose this with African
or the new Nigerian immigrants, who lack such familial support groups or
communities. Facts show that there are no Nigerian Town or Ghana Towns anywhere
in the US. The only excusable exception is the larger Ethiopian community.
Worsening their collective chances of survival in America as a group is the
initial culture shock and the inevitable challenge of how to adjust to the
American mentality. As economic refugees, many new African immigrants were
forced to flee their home countries due to worsening economic, political and
social conditions, especially from a country such as Nigeria, and other mostly
West African countries. There are stories of unwholesome living conditions:
decaying infrastructure, insecurity, state-sanctioned killings and banditry, a
poor healthcare delivery system and rising unemployment, etc. Upon arrival in
the United States, the latest arrivals of African immigrants preoccupy
themselves with finding employment as auxiliary nurses, security guards, taxi
drivers, etc. and other such low-paying jobs
The only upside to this trend is that once the immigrants settle down to having
and raising families, there has been the emergence in the last 20 years of a
second generation of Nigerian Americans who are doing quite well for themselves
in the areas of sports, law, medicine, academia, and a few in the IT industry.
With mellifluous sounding names, these are offsprings of Africa immigrants who
now vicariously live their American dreams through their “American” children.
The problem however is that we noticed a disconnect between second generation
Nigerian Americans and their parents. The younger demography see themselves
first as Americans and process life through an American mentality, resulting in
clashes with their “African” parents.
Overall, and like all the other immigrants, Nigerians and other African
immigrants have serially been described as hardworking, industrious,
entrepreneurial, creative and productive citizens of the United States. Examples
are replete with stories of Nigerian Americans who have attained lofty heights
in the larger American society in the last few decades. The long list includes
such names as Adebayo Ogunlesi, the brilliant lawyer and investment banker, who
once headed up Credit Suisse First Boston; Kase Lukman Lawal, one-time Vice
Chairman of the Port of Houston Authority Commission, who runs one of the most
successful African American-owned businesses in the United States, among many
such others.
In the field of medicine, Nigerian-born physicians are generally reputed among
their colleagues to be among the best in several multi-disciplined levels of
practice, including neurosurgery, cardiology, oncology, psychiatry, and such
other highly sought-after skills. One of them, Bennet Ifekandu Omalu, a forensic
pathologist and neuropathologist, first discovered and published findings on
chronic traumatic encephalopathy in American football players that became the
theme of the Hollywood film, Concussion, played by Will Smith. Closer home,
Africa Consult Group, the think tank department of this publication, The African
Times/USA served as the marketing/communication advisor to the over 4,000-strong
Association of Nigerian Physicians in the Americas (ANPA), a professional
umbrella organisation that boasts of an impressive membership of medical doctors
in America.
“Nigerian Americans have the capacity to do better than the Indians and other
Asians in America”, one of our research editors opined, “if they can develop a
coordinated community-based network as well defined as their Asian counterparts.
At the moment, the Nigerian/African community is virtual and nondescript. And
you cannot build generational wealth by flying solo. Look at the Jews, the
Koreans, the Chinese, the Hispanics. They were able to create a niche for
themselves in America by coming together, trusting one another and learning
about how to pull together, and how to be and remain competitive in an equally
highly competitive American society.”
