'All Nigerians Are Corrupt', Says Oprah Winfrey

u say wetin?

I heard that she hates hip-hop and rap

The fact that some Nigerians have actually given our dear country away as a currupt nation can not be over emphasised,that is not the reason why some one who is supposed to protect the interest of a black nation where lies her root, will now make such outreagious statement. Haba she chop witch?? someone should tell her that every type of corruption that ever exited on the face of this earth originated from them the Americans and that she should not generalize such hidious statement or I call for her HEAD!!!!!

its so amazing that such a woman as oprahs caliber could make such a statement. considering the fact that she is black who knows where are ancestors are from, she could even have been from Nigeria for all i care. I am really disappointed in her. The fact that we have some bad eggs doesnt make us all bad. and she cant say that america has not had its own share of corruption. I am sure she know what happened btw jefferson and the Nigerian govt

You didn't see any? Check your bulk mail too.

The fact that we are too smart to fall for their scams don't mean they are not trying to scam us.

Compare the amount of scam letters in your box that originate from Americans to those that emanate from Nigerians. So they are the ones who try to scam the more. The fact that they hardly succeed doesn't make them innocent.

Negroponte and his gang are pulling a scam of N18,000,000,000 with the OPLC scam format  and nobody is complaining.

Bwahahahahaha! This has just made my day! I am glad someone finally pointed at what I have been screaming for ages! There's a full fledged attention on Nigeria which is so intense that we all forgot about the major scams. Denex, you forgot to mention calling card scam! Work from home scam (very laughable but they never stop coming) paypal 'phishing' scam. . . ebay 'phishing' scam. . . they are everywhere but you NEVER see anyone mention it. . .but when countryman do im own. . .

Applause to Denex, thanks for bringing up that list!

@Denx and Seun
Let me give you an example of what the white bastards from Spain tried doing to me.
Precisely two years back, i tried using a friend in Birmingham to help in buying fones from ebay to resell in Nigeria.

I actually made purcahses of 1,000 GBP sometimes in 2005. Due to the nature of the transactions i chose not to use my friend in UK. This i decided after the seller told me he will ship the fones to me in Nigeria and all i need to do is use an escrow account. I knew about escrow very well and i knew my fone would be safe if i did it with escrow.

I was meant to transfer the money through my dom account to the escrow verified account and then escrow wont pay them untill i have the goods. days after, i got a mail that i should wire the money through western union to one bank account in spain. They claimed its an escrow account and they told me to send a mail immediately after the transaction to goods@escrow-europa.com. I initially thought it was an escrow account truly. But, the Nigerian in me made me open escrow europa website and i checked the terms associated with transactions.

Escrow advises strongly never to send any amount via western union or any other related stuffs like that. I sent a mail to escrow and asked them about the transaction and email given to me. They told me such mails never originated from escrow.

I sent a mail to the mugus and i told them i wired the money and that who can i speak to. Immediately, they replied and said i shoudl give them 48hours before goods will be dispatched and they also gave a number. I called immediately and started causing the person in yoruba. The fone went dead and immediately i replied their mail saying i'm much more smarter than them.And that was it. Oyinbos too are thieves and the master of all fraudulent activities. they actually taught our boyz

By the way, as from today henceforth, i have beef with Oprah

It's rather harsh a statement. She ought to apologize!!

But on the flip side, majority of us have the tendency to be a "sharp" which is akin to corruption right ?. Afterall yahozee is

the most popular track and it certainly ain't about be honest,

the only thing i've gleaned so far is that many ppl here don't have the faintest idea how to participate in a discussion forum. It's been showed pages ago that the article is a friggin user-submitted article in the Punch, that it has no basis and in fact it's downright untrue.
Yet we see people busting in here and dissing Oprah for no good reason. Even worse, some people are here expressing tacit support for crime originating from Nigeria. Weird


What's a dumbo like you getting all worked up for? Did you see any evidence she said that before you started spouting insults? It isn't so hard to read, is it?
And truly, if she reads this, she'll laugh at your insignificant threats. When you stop playing at being tough, calm down and let you brains kick in.

I guess the ignant cow who said blacks don't read wasn't lying.

can you name one Nigerian Multi Millionaire, just one, that made his money without doing wayo?

Just one. At least Oprah did not do any fraud to make here millions. Noone can say the same for any Nigerian multimillionaire.

denex i think u are on a mission this morning. na wetin now, u wan kill me with laughter? i beg o! 

oprah is a mad dog woman, i have replied her through her website but i know she might not see it, but our govt got to do something about it, she is crazy

Just shows how pathetic this thread is

Is it not ironic that the same people who are crying for Oprah's head for generalisation turn around and say that ALL those who are scammed are because they are lazy ?
