Abeg who has her email or phone number?
Let me toast her and try my luck


Explorers:
'All the Nigerians are gonna be there like 'gimme Coca Cola, gimme me beef, why you have no beef left?

I want beef.

''And I'm just gonna be there like, 'Sorry sir, we ran out of beef'.

'All the Nigerians are gonna be there asking for f****** upgrades because they haven't got enough leg room because their B**s are in their way.

Big d**** like this swinging from side to side.'





British Airways has launched an investigation after a video emerged of an air stewardess making racist comments about passengers on a flight toNigeria.

The woman, dressed in a BA uniform, apparently filmed herself as she was about to fly from London Heathrow to Abuja on Friday night.

The footage was recorded in her car and has been circulated among shocked cabin crew who reported.


The airline said today: 'We expect the utmost professionalism from our staff when they are representing British Airways.


We are investigating this video.


During the one-minute clip, broadcast on Snapchat, the blonde female worker also revealed how she was going to deal with passengers on the six-hour flight.

Do you even have a birth right in your family not to talk of Nigeria? If you are sensible enough, you would know what she said is not close to being a racist, she only said what she feels, her only issue is she recorded it and some how the record got leaked... She could have done what she said without saying anything and those mofos in that plane won't know anything. Always playing the victim, which is typical of every Nigerians

Next time you want to talk, talk with your mouth well connected to your brain and if you are typing, type with your fingers also well connected to your brain. You useless being. If you know what is good for yourself, back off, you don't want to go this lane with me this morning and remember to ask your mum if you are not a bastard. Fool.

She was just joking. There's absolutely nothing racist about all she said.

Would you go on social media or international TV to insult a tribe, nation or better still, your employer and call it s joke?

This isn't racist per se. She mentioned Nigerians and not blacks or Africans.

Yet, She's only voiced out what most white people, especially Europeans and Arabs think about us in the secret of their minds.

Thank you very much, God bless your reasoning and every other person that think this way. Racist my ass.

It is about decorum and professional ethics

The comments were made outside her working hours, first of all. Although I agree it may not have been the smartest thing for her to post it online.

And I understand that the stereotyped BBC thing is considered offensive by some people. I am just saying that personally, I do not care about this. There is a lot more serious racism in the world for me to be bothered about a young air hostess trying to joke about difficult Nigerian passengers.

We are always gullible just because we enter plane doesn't mean we should finish their food...this is not racist but the truth

They normally have options on the plane. Beef or chicken meal. Why provide the options when you don't intend to give your customers?
Why not just inform them that you are providing only chicken from thr onset ?
Youu expect people not to eat on a 6 hour flight? You're not allowed to bring in your own meal or drink into the plane. You wake up early to be at the airport to check in so most likely you would have missed your breakfast/lunch, yet you're not allowed to bring in your own food. Please what are you expected to do? You have medications to take because youre diabetic and you have to take with food. Please what do they want you to do? The last xhicken meal you had on the plane gave you diarrhoea, please won't you ask for beef?

Dont mind them, they eat too much. that is why nearly everyone most especially the rich ones in Nigeria always develop big belly cuz they stock a lot of things in their stomach in the name of eating.

She had to say it.

I never noticed we swing our BBCs from left to right.

I never also noticed they notice us do so.

Well her opinion doesn't reflect the truth neither does it have any existential importance. If she feels that way, fine. She doesn't want to give a Nigerian Beef?Well, cool. Not eating beef on a B. A. FLIGHT won't kill any human, not to talk of a Nigerian.

Personally I ignore racists. After spending years in Europe, I don't notice any racist treatment. Not that is want there. But I chose to act like I did not notice.

One thing I made certain was I acted like every sane person in the society. Doing my studies, minding my business, enjoying the serene environment, paying my bills, contributing to the Society and obeying the law.

Certain important and critical things in the world you can no longer be racist about. If your racism was to give me an extra frisk because I am black, then go ahead. If your racism is to stop in your police sedan and ask me to produce an I. D. then why not. Gladly, I have many. International Passport with Visa and Residency, School, University library, gymn club, take a pick.

Infact I did the opposite of fighting racism. I looked on with quiet disgust. The major important things in my life, I did not experience racism. Is it commuting via the metro? An old lady asks where you are from and why you should go back to your country. Well, I gave a calm gaze. Very calm gaze.. But said nothing. Absolutely nothing. She b*tched and complained. When I ignored her a lot of people did too. As long as I wasn't physically attacked, I am fine. If I am physically attacked, I will defend myself with all measure and pleasure.

We should stop letting these things get to us. Let us move beyond this phase. Our self esteem and pride should be beyond this. Nah. Her opinion is too petty. If she has broken the law or the Principles of B.A., then sanctions should follow. But she should not be punished because she finds Nigerians tiring when they ask for Beef and Coke. Hell, I find Nigerians annoying in flights too. Just as I find the French grouchy, the Germans stubborn, the Americans talkative and the British cocky. I could go on. Even in Africa and Nigeria, we have various forms of prejudice. What? It doesn't sound nice coming from a British Woman? (Sorry I don't call them '' whites'').

I actually found her hilarious. She doesn't know our Nigerian meals go with mainly, Beef. And I would have given her a calm stare. Perhaps smile and little and continue minding my business. If necessary I would have told her such opinions Might be considered sentimentally prejudicial and racist. Then leave it at that.


One million likes. (That cold stare really works. cheesy It leaves the would-be bigot feeling small and quite confused. It usually gets them angry because they think you're being snobby and superior. Best treatment for them). We really need to start picking our battles intelligently. And not let everything get under our skin. Someone is gripping about her job and her customers. We all do. Should it have a different coloration because she happens to be white? (Pun intended). Some things are just not worth one's attention. Even if she was being racist. Why accord some small minded person undeserved attention? Let's save our precious time for the big things. Like when someone or an organisation denies you of a job you're qualified for simply because of your race. Then the gloves can rightly come off. Not for this little miss in a snit because she doesn't like her job. Who she be??

There is nothing racist in her comments. Let's not belittle the concept of racism by ascribing it to an innocent young lady having fun. The people who have experienced genuine racism do not need lessons from Naija on what racism is.

They should fire her if they want. You people act like victims all the time, and it is only victims I see having the 'right' to spew trash about other people but not about them. You don't want a white man to speak up about your disgusting behaviour, you are fully ready to term him a racist. Come on, they are not super human,
they should be able to complain too!! Except you see yourself below them, I see no reason why you can't say shit about them if they say same to you and leave it at that, without the racism wahala, which makes you look helpless.

Claiming to be OK while you are not. That's why you will always be pushed aside. I was on a Turkish flight to Ankara: the air hostess gave me a bottle of red wine. Later I told her that am not OK with a bottle: she put a smile, went back and get me another bottle of red wine.
