black_beau: I'm an akwa Ibomite and I can boldly say that the cross riverean culture doesn't include unclothedness.this years nudity in the carnival was just a show by our nigerian girls to copy their brazillian counterpartswho ask u to identify urself |

Nothing more hilarious than moral indignation from a people whose ancestors walked around nakid just half a century ago. What even more hilarious is that the same people have grandmas and mothers in their respective villages going about their daily businesses with little more than wrappers. They are getting all up in arms about "the western culture of nakidness" seeping into their culture while wearing clothes made by western designers. I tell ya, Nigerians are comedians! 4 Likes |

REVOLUTNIS:Pls don't insult the efiks/ibibios. I lived in calabar and the girls I met there are no worse than the girls I see in Cincinnati or New York or London. Infact the calabar girls are better by far. And there are millions of good girls in cross-river too. Nobody talks about them. But they are there. I know, bc I've met them |

The end didn't come when the most powerful powers on earth fought a deadly battle that took millions in the 1930s and 40s. The end didn't come when atom bombs were being thrown around the globe like toys. The end didn't come when empires ravaged lands across the earth taking land and people with them. The end didn't come when the human population was almost wiped out at different points over the last 200,000 years. The end isn't coming because of poverty and bad governance. No. The end has come because Nigerian women are dancing in bras and panties. 1 Like |

May be I've been abroad too long, but where I am some ladies go to school with even less clothes on than those ladies dancing. Anyway, I've seen the London carnival, I've seen Toronto carnival and they are HOT . My next target is Trinidad Carnival. I heard that is the capital of HoT chicks on earth |
