For starters see the number we have in India alone (1,100 Nigerians)

http://thestreetjournal.org/2015/06/1100-nigerians-in-indian-jails-envoy/

We even have more than 4000 prisoners in Iran alone and up to 6000 held in various foreign prisons for drugs offences

I don't hate PMD but I know he has gone to seek help on his senility in London.

What we are witnessing is just an ephemeral effect of Senility capsules. He'll recuperate, but temporarily.

You would also need to put up how many residents each of those Countries have in the UK. Then we can compare what percentage of residents of each Country have been jailed before in the UK

The fact is if you live in the UK, you would understand where the President is coming from regarding our reputation for credit card fraud, love scams, visa fraud, arranged marriages for residency, internet fraud etc.

However there is also a significant number of Nigerians doing brilliantly well in the various sectors of the British economy, particularly in Finance where I belong. Those screaming foul are only playing ostrich, even the Jamaican I was with last night had nothing good to say about our reputation (which is even more annoying now that I know their position on that chart).

It is up to us to either be introspective and fix ourselves, or pretend Nigerians are not the most fraudulent Africans in the entire world.

There is class of ingrates and fools who defend corruption and stealing of public funds on nairaland alone if that isn't being criminally minded then you are suffering kwashoko of the brain.

Condmening Buhari for that disgraceful statement isn't that we're supporting corruption, every country has corrupt Nationals, but their Presidents rather choose to market their positives. Do you know how many illegal Mexican Immigrants in USA? Should their president go on air and chant "My People are corrupt"? Mexicans are also experts in drugs, how many times have their presidents aired that?

Rape is common in india, do they air this internationally? Other nationals won't help you solve the mess, they will rather disparage you for it, why going to their land to mess up our personality when we have far more sincere Nigerians we can use to market Nigeria.

Going by this statistics, I'm sure there were more Nigerians than 167 jailed ones in 2014, why do we have to denigrate other sincere thousands of Nigerians because of criminals who are minority? How does this help in driving investors to Nigeria or rebranding our image?

The problem with Buhari is ignorance, lack of indept knowledge of grammer & use of adjective, tactless etc. You dont go outside to tell people that your family members criminals & stupid. For Gods sake, every country has the good, bad & ugly the difference is that while some have checks & balances that make crime unattractive with punitive actions in place for defaulters others like in Nigeria make crime attrative & law abiding citizens stupid!! Buhari should go for a crash course on PR management & stop disgracing Nigerians, it's now embarrasing to hold the green passport abroad, he shouldn't make things worse for Nigerians. #Need To make the best investment in Owerri?

Nigeria is leading in Africa

Nigerians are leading in Asia and parts of Europe. They know us for cultic prostitution rings in Italy. Smuggling and selling knock-offs in Germany and Belgium. Black and Eiye confraternity people are doing multi million naira car theft in the US. Up to a few years ago all the credit card scams in the UK were done by Nigerians. Nigeria is the only country ever to make convicted criminals abroad governors of states in Lagos, Delta and other states. Buhari is a 75 year old Fulani man, it would be hard for him to start telling lies. He has many personal faults himself but outright lying or being too cowardly to say the truth is not one of then . You can deceive yourself and pretend or you can actively do something about the image of your country.

The latter part of your assertion applies because bad news sells best, which further buttresses our global perception as fraudulent criminals.

Half a million Nigerian prisoners in a country of 64 million? Haba....we need to check ourselves.

If you are not among the criminals Buhari alluded to then nobody is except if you give us names.

I put it to you, that the possibility that you're among is 95% since you are defending Buhari.

It is you that is not exposed. What school did you go?
Buhari has been having foreign exposure before your parents were born and I mean no offence. I think a lot of you people are not seeing life realistically. Buhari knows much more about PR management than you. This is about ideology of life and principle not shallow western inspired brand management. The man who changed China Dengie Xia O Ping said worse things about his country in the late 80s when reforms started. It is not 83 the job description of president to lie to his people.

You are obviously absolutely incapable of contributing to this discourse on an intellectual level hence your resort to bigotry laced inanities and thoughtless vituperation.

If I were to descend to your level of analysing this issue with ethnic sentiment we know exactly who'll be left with a bloody nose.

You will be ignored henceforth as you obviously lack the capacity to add any substance to this topic.
