Oprah is really crazy to make such a generalisation about nigerians- that they ALL corrupt. Was it not a smilar staement made lightly by Obama about Philidelphians holding onto their guns and bibles , that cost him Philadelpha votes during the primaries in the USA last year? Such flippant statements are poor of her. The mugu who gave the naija man 500,000 dollars may have ua corrupt greedy and lawless American who was looking for easy money as well. We do have a lot of issues about corruption in naija but NOT ALL nigerians are corrupt. A lot of them are honest hard working people. We only have huge problems with leadership mainly because of poor understanding of what nationhood is about in the country and this can be rectified in time. How would she feel if just because of some black american criminals we say in CNN that all black americans are crimininals. She needs to retract the statement and make it up by showing some honest hard working nigerians in her show thus uplifting the image of the black race. |

I dont think she is the diplomatic type. it is like saying that all moslems are terrorist. She should have said so and see if her country can defend her. So she now knows over 140million Nigerians? Idiot! |

Oprah Winfrey lied about her past: you cant believe anything that Oprah says, she is a lier. This means African Americans are liers. Gosh,Obama is a lier? On the other hand maybe Kitty Kelley is lying and her accusation is just part of the act of publicizing her book. This reminds me that a major part of publicity is pure exaggeration and lies. America is home to the best publicizing machinery in the world, which mean 99% Americans are liers. |

I have no idea why you fools dragged up this old topic but your responses say a lot about your intellect. FACT: Oprah NEVER made this statement. The Punch NEVER carried this story officially. The link in the OP was from a user submitted article on the Punch in which a punch reader claimed he heard Oprah make that statement. It's been proven that she never used those words. Abeg make una let this topic die down. it is an embarrassing testament to ease with which Nigerians give themselves to knee-jerk reactions without even trying to do some rational thinking. |

It is not true that all Nigerians are corrupt, but majority are corrupt and not sincere. Let say about 90% of Nigerians are corrupt. |
