Nigerians really have a bloated,unrealistic importance of Nigeria in the scheme of things. For the average American or even African, Nigeria is a land of corrupt politicians, stupid Africans killing themselves under a banner called tribalism and latest a country of islamic fanatics and terrorists. Nigerians do insult Nigeria more with their conduct and shameful tribalism. I was recently embarrassed when a spoke to a white guy in Kenya and he was laughing out hilariously how Eboes, Yourubas and foolanis are fighting over poverty and killing themselves like dogs. I couldn't even fault him because i knew it was very true. I worry more about the bad conduct of Nigerians,than when white people make reference to it. Like i hear African Americans call themselves neggar, but it becomes a racial slur when a white person call them that? If we are offended by the bitter truth in what Senator Cruz said,we should then take a pledge to always do what we can be proud of as Nigerians. 4 Likes |

solomon111: Nonsense. What do you think: How many Americans are queueing up for Nigerian (or other African countries) visas and ready to die in the desert or in the ocean just to get here? How many Nigerians are not only ready to hold night vigils and tie koranic tiras to get a "breakthrough" to America Do we not have many threads here on NL to that effect? I am almost certain that we have the same disparity between Chinese and Americans seeking to go to each other's country. Let us STOP deceiving ourselves and strive to make our country better beyond simply being contented with our INDIVIDUAL success. BTW, having debts is not a bad thing. And that is where CLUELESS OBJoke and Buhari got it wrong. It is your capacity to use it well that matters. Dangote and any other successful businessman is a debtor but not a NET debtor. Please note the difference. 2 Likes |

I don't like Sen Cruz for his brand of politics -"divide the baby into two rather than giving the baby to the other guy" kind of politics; but what is there to protect about Nigeria's image? A country that stands by while innocent citizens are gunned down for failing to pay bribe; a country where a president is held hostage because he is from a minority tribe; a country where performing ministers are hounded to their graves because they come from a section that is now benefitting from overdue withheld entitlements; a country whose millions of jobless graduates send millions of scam letters worldwide daily? That is Nigeria! If you don't like the truth in Cruz's obvious joke, tough luck! 1 Like |

That is Nigeria! Where's the truth in his joke? Are Nigerian scammers running the ACA website? Senator Ted Cruz's goal is to slander anything President Obama does, even when people in his state benefit. Of course he'd use Nigerian scammers as example. He and some of his fellow idiots still think President Obama was born in Kenya. 2 Likes |

i hate this guy and i do not like the republicans. Plus i love my country. Do we write scam letters to americans everyday think about your answer and think again if this guy is wrong. He is damn right. forget about patriotism, i you are outside of nigeria the vibe that we as nigerians send to the rest of the world is we are scammers, kidnappers, corrupt and bombers. Of course we got millions and millions and quadrillions of so many great side to our great nation. So if an american decides to see only a few negatives in us, just ask yourself, is he making those stories up or is he correct. He reads more stories of boko haram than he reads of China Achebes successes, he get more CIA report on how many plane crashes in nigeria than he reads that he best graduating student from stanford university is a Nigeriian. Think again. Of course i now am gonna be bashed for saying this 2 Likes |

It is not just e-mail scams . Nigeria is the best example when you want to talk about government corruption , about poor state of health, poor state of education, poor state of security, poor state electricity and water supply , drug courier business, illegal migration to other lands, more recently terrorism and leading the world in kidnapping. Which developing country president will take 600+ to a UN meeting where he contributes virtually nothing to the discussions? Which developing country president will take 60 % of the country's governors with him to jamboree when there is unsolved 4 months strike affecting his country's youth. The senator was right to use Nigeria in his jibe. Which country did you want him to use anyway? There is no other country- Nigeria is the worst at this moment in time. |

That is Nigeria!Is all these problems you stated peculiar to only Nigeria. Are there no scammers in US too? Are there not corrupt government officials in the States too? Are there no Criminals in the America too? Is there no police brutality in US too? Is president Obama not held hostage and oppose by white extremists and tea party members like Sen Cruz because he is black and a minority? So you think its right for an American Senator to insult your country because we have problems in Nigeria while his country men also commit crimes like Nigerians? People like you give Nigerians bad name 3 Likes |
