Sorry, we are not Nigerians’ say Williams sisters The Williams sisters, Venus and Serena Wednesday put paid to insinuations that they were from Nigeria, when they said that they were proud to be American citizens. Speaking at the Federal Palace Hotel, Venus, in a response to a question on their true origin, said that while they love Nigeria, the fact was that they were from the United States of America. “This is another country that we would love to come from but we are from the United States and are proud to be from there as well”, said Venus On their mother’s decision to name their late sister, Yetunde, after a Nigerian, Venus said that it was because of the mum’s love for Africa. “My mum named my late sister after an Africa name because she loves Africa and that is all to it”, she said. www.vanguardngr.com/2012/10/sorry-we-are-not-nigerians-say-williams-sisters/ 1 Like |

Why didn't your mum name your late sis (may her soul rest in peace) a South African or Ghanian name, of all countries, she Choosed a Nigerian Name and u telling me about Loving Africa, i don't know your roots, but, with your own excuse, something tells me you Gals are Lying and hiding something!

It's good they cleared the air just like NAS did when he came to Nigeria. I don't know what it is with Nigerians and claiming people. How can a nation with over 150million people be looking for more citizens when it has not taken care of the people it has. 51 Likes |

Nigeria,and assumptions. Someone even told me they are related to the late Funsho Williams. Thank God,they ended such speculation. So because someone bears a foreign name makes him/her a citizen.then am from America too,cos my English name is Drake. 2 Likes |

*Ileke-IdI: We are not trying to claim them. Journalists only asked the Obvious question. Their Mum used a Popular Yoruba name which means she was trying to associate with Nigeria. Too Bad the sisters are claiming contrary. Who cares anyway? Not like they will help reducing the price of Fuel or anything. Abeg! Naija has enough Stars in the Making. Fingers crossed joor. They should just keep up with their good game. #Lobatan 2 Likes |

Abujafood: How are they supposed to be Nigerians? What do you expect na? Maybe if they do, it would sound as if they were denying being Americans. That's the normal trend jare. Take for instance. Ask anyone who originally hails from Houston, Texas, where he comes from? He would tell you, he's from America. |

When naija go stop to dry fall my hand? Every black person is Nigerian, Nas is Nigerian, chamillionaire is Nigerian, lil Wayne is Nigerian, wale is Nigerian even people who don't wish to be associated with Nigeria? We need to build our own and stop looking for ready mades. Although these girls forgot that every black person has roots in Africa. |

Royalty1:If your name is Alex does that mean you're from England or America? It's just a name. It's only a surname that can really tell where someone comes from and even a surname is not 100% certain. |
