BBC disrespected Nigerians. BBC was showing the medal presentation the 3rd mounted followed by the 2nd and received their medal presentation, when it came to the 1st Blessing Okagbare's turn they cut to studio and Gary Lineker annoced that they have run out of time. You don't have 10 seconds to show the winner of the main event of the commonwealth. Give me a break! shame on you BBC 20 Likes

I hate it when people play the black victimisation card. Why you werent watching the event on an indigenous tv station is the question you need to answer. A company puts it resources together to buy tv rights and send tv crews to an event and you will dictate to them what they should show because... 4 Likes |

curiouslad: I hate it when people play the black victimisation card. Hold it. This is between country and country, who said anything about race. If you tell me you havent noticed the negative bias of the british media towards Nigeria then its either you hate your country or you are not observant. Besides if the bbc gon gon doesn't air the Commonwealth games properly, then the CG isnt worthy of international participation and media. 16 Likes |

curiouslad: I hate it when people play the black victimisation card. Read the Post again, I can't see where the OP mentioned "Black" . I wonder why you are jumping the gun to mention race. If they put their resourses to broadcast the commonwealth game,is BBC coverage area only UK, of course the answer is NO. BBC is not a charity organisazation, they paid for the broadcast rights to make a return on their investment. And Companies all over the world have paid BBC to adverised their products/Services during the Games on BBC which includes Nigeria. Its only Fair Broadcasting if BBC switch to their Studio after the Medal presentation and The National anthem of the Gold Medalist. This is not about Race. I am 100% Nigerian, but i love the National anthems of South Africa, Canada and Germany. I won’t be happy if BBC will switch to their Studio shortly before the anthem is sung for the Gold medalist that may be from the aforementioned countries, talk more of my Nigeria. Advertisers don’t pay for Studio Chit Chat they pay for the Games which includes Medal Presentation. #kapish 17 Likes |

QuiverBox:Yes i jumped the race card, but it was obvious what the op was getting at. This is like going to watch a movie in someone's house and then complaining he didn't allow you see the cast before shutting off the TV. Yes his actions are rude, But I say buy your own DAMN tv. But no we would rather play the victim and come next international event we all tune to the same people who shit on us to watch. We never learn. We always play the victim Thats my point 2 Likes |

BBC always like to undermine Nigeria's achievement. I remember the lousy, crappy, report they wrote when they announced that Nigeria has the biggest economy in Africa. .. That station is so full of crap and anti Nigeria ... I deleted them from my bookmark since that day and I don't even watch em. I'd rather watch cartoon than watch BBC. I don't like whining or blaming foreign media's for obvious truth like some conspiracy theorists but BBC is 100% anti Nigeria. 1 Like |

cjotech: If na to add Nigeria Nigeria among Ebola nations they ll give maximum time for such reports abi o BBC was so happy when ebola came to Nigeria, it was one of their major headlines. I love BBC but what i discover which is also common among western Nations is that they are not always too happy when a country like Nigeria excel , that's the plain truth, they try to water down our achievements but let FIFA ban Nigeria tommorrow, it will be a major headline. We just have to live with it, Let's remember we are the largest black Nation on the earth and despite our problems, the western Nations sees us as rivals at times, that's another truth that most Nigerians even disagree with. 1 Like |

Mishydoo: I fail to get your point @OP....How does that change anything?or translate to disrespectIt changes nothing but then whats the bigotry about? However, I am not surprised. It is the Brits afterall, they are well known for their bigotry. If it was a Brit who won, it will be shown so many times and they will have time then. This is from same people who see anyone from Scotland as Scottish when they are not winning but a Scottish all of a sudden becomes British and not Scottish when they are winning. Worst thing that has ever happened to Nigeria is us been colonised by the Brits. They in my opinion add nothing to us. Just look at the countries France colonised and see how much support they get. I don't rate them. 2 Likes |

NSNA:Did u take special note bro? British nigerians!...."british" comes befor d "nigerians" u knw? Besyds, as long as one makes a living there, u v gat to be taxed(british or not). Woeva dey choose to broadcast will PRIMARILY reflect THEIR VALUES & INTERESTS.....other events elsewhere is SECONDARY! My point basically is........we v gat NTA lyk dey v gat BBC! Dey v chosen to go global with deir programming( as evidenced in deir offices worldwide, eg BBC africa with reporters and offices in various countries in africa) yl NTA has chosen to give primary focus to d activities of happenings in d ruling party and d FG! Lyk I said, we should rather vent on NTA for nt providing us with free-to-air access to d CWG and nt on what BBC chooses to broadcast! |
