litetias: Misplaced priorities. Nigerians want people to take them seriously but won't take themselves seriously. Undergraduates have been home idle for months, public funds are being siphoned left and right, Super Eagles coaching staff are being owed seven months salary even after bringing pride to the country, UK is demanding ransom before you enter their country because they don't trust you while your government couldn't stand up for you unlike China which did for their people yet what matters to Nigerians is a foreigner telling them the truth about themselves. What a shame. #onlyinNigeria





My guy, make your ways to the senate house and help us. No body dey hear wetin you dey talk for here. undecided

Just to discredit Obama, who wants all Americans to have access to affordable health care. Meanwhile the clown is insured under the health insurance of his wife who works with goldman sach, and cost $20,000/year. In texas if you work minimum wage for a whole year, it's less than $20,000. Wickedness of the wacko man.

Where is the apology?

Why don't you sit up and take a look as to how things are done, how things work, when people are proactive. A senator was insultive and progressive Nigerians will not tolerate such. Nigerian outrage has reached CNN, the Huffington Post, MSNBC, etc. Local news, national news, and international news. The Nigerian Ambassador to the USA has made his own statement. A public apology must come for his public abuse.

carujmonella: What sort of bullocks is this?. Where is the fùcking apology?. Are we this gullible or what?. This ill-bred móronic slowpoke didn't apologize even for a nanosecond!!. There's nothing in his spittle-like rants that suggested the ídiot apologized. A man of his calibre ought not to be making unguided speeches which sole aim is spite other countries. Until he issues a formal unreserved apology, the Nigerians/ambassador to US, should discard this rants of his to the dustbin.

And please MODs, change the topic of this thread and remove the "apologises" cos the fool didn't apologize. angry

If you are a Nigerian, which i doubt you are then you are a criminal. Simple logic.
How can somebody classify a nation as criminals because a couple of people committed criminal acts.?

However, he never apologised and I honestly don't think he should. Nigerians are starting to look overly sensitive about everything and if we continue on this path of screaming "blue murder" about everything, best believe we would start looking like those who always pull the race-card out of their ar.ses over every little thing.

Yes, the joke was in the bad taste. However, Nigerians need to move on. I don't know anyone who has an e-mail that hasn't received an e-mail from a Nigerian prince with $2,000,000,000. You and I would have probably used Nigeria figuratively if we were in his shoes. Just the same way Arabs are the face of terrorism, Chinese are the face of thin eyes, Somalis are the face of hungry children, and most people do cite the Brits whenever they joke about people with bad teeth. However, the difference is that, most of these other people aren't sensitive like Nigerians. Perhaps, it's because we've an overly big ego for nothing - and/or probably because Obama was attacked. You know the first black president blah blah blah.

Lil Wayne said, "Tougher than Nigerian hair." Nigerians cried. Alan Sugar said, "Nigerians can't be trusted over financial promises." We moaned and started byt.ching about. Spike Lee said whatever he said about Nigerians and piracy after visiting Lagos. We threw hissy fit over that as well. The list is endless. Honestly, we're notorious for so many things - adding hissy-fit, crying and moaning would definitely become problematic. There are more important things to focus on than wasting energy on a joke a dyckhead cracked in bad taste.

Anyway, the day I see outrage from Nigerians over how messed up the country is would be the day I'll become a proud Nigerian again. Till them, tell those numbnuts running around like pikeys without caravan to shut it - and get back to work. Massa is coming. The outrage should be about how a c4 is about to explode under Nigeria and how extreme corruption has destroyed the country.

I'm out.

This is a toxic senator from Texas. Nothing will please him more than seeing a bunch of foreign niggers running around in a thick accent protesting what he said about their country. It will not only make him more popular in Texas if he refuses to fully apologize but it will also bring out more rabid right wing modafokas to make more intense statements about Naija. grin
These people openly abuse the POTUS and get more popular, how much more abusing a foreign country that already has a bad name.

Of course Nigerian-Americans will want an apology. We believe in the American system and simply wish to be treated fairly and not generalized. Unlike some Nigerians back in Nigeria, we do not tolerate ridicule of our community from our elected officials. This is what it means to live in a progressive country like the US. The weak are able to speak their mind freely, and the strong have to listen. I know this may be a new concept to some of you, but the collective Nigerian community in the US has spoken.
