That appears to me like a joke and nothing serious. What we need understand is everybody makes a joke. My view is when white people says this kind of thing strictly as a joke, it should be taken as such. |

GetMeRight: There's no big dick stereotype about the Lebanese, so what would be the context of making a big dick joke about the Lebanese? Let's say a Nigerian hostess with a Nigerian airline goes on Snapchat when she is off-duty and makes a joke about Lebanese passengers and garlic sauce, what do you think would be the reaction on the internet? Note that from my first comment I already said posting it was probably not the smartest thing to do, but no I don't consider it that serious or racist or even a fireable 'offence'. 1 Like |

OmaniPadmeHum:I understand your point about the stewardess, but ignoring racism when it's blatantly manifested is a no. How do you think 'driving while black' and the shootings that provoked BLM started? Stereotyping. All blacks are drug dealers, pimps and always carry guns which they use to shoot each other, or just shoot anyone they see, cos you see, they 've got no sense. So police officers always switch to the default stereotype mode when they see a black man. They don't instinctively hate black people. They just shoot first because their stereotyping had sunk into their subconscious and they won't want to get shot first. That's why it's important to fight the thoughts and words of racism because they become actions. Eg if Buhari says most Nigerians abroad are drug dealers and criminals, which sane country would want to give visas to drug dealers and criminals? it's important to present a counter narrative to racial stereotyping. 1 Like |

RedboneSmith:Most of the things we do or say (racist comments, stealing, murder, rape, bullying and so on) that get criticised was because it became known to other people. My point is that: if her comment wasn't racist comment, you yourself wouldn't be saying that she shouldn't have made it public. You get my point? |

GetMeRight: The reason I think she shouldn't have posted it is not because I think it is racist, but because I know how touchy and easily offended people are. And people like us Africans who have been (and still are) at the receiving end of racism are doubly touchy and have a hard time deciding when something is genuine racism and when something should just be laughed off. She should have know that too. 3 Likes |

What's derogatory about what she said? don't forget she said '...on a lighter note...' before she started talking all that. Why don't you mention what is derogatory about what she joked about? Don't our brothers have big d!cks, generally even Lukaku fans made up a chant about his big schlong and he took no offense because they obviously mean well.

sod09: What do they do with the extra food, since it was prepacked days before sometimes? How is it finishing their food? Maybe she's slighted by having to serve a loud set of arrogant Nigerians. Ordinarily, she has no business saving the airline money on extra food that she will not be carting home herself anyway. 1 Like |

Here is a scenario: On a BA flight in economy, they prepare 50 dishes of Rice & Beef and another 50 of Mashed Potato & Duck. Which of these two do you think Nigerians will go for? The beef dish of course! What happens when beef is finished? Wahala starts! Why on earth can't they try to understand their passengers general meal preference and do a bit more to accommodate it by making more Beef dishes for example. They would likely not serve Beef on a flight to New Delhi or serve Pork sausage on a flight to Doha or even to Abuja. It is likely that their crew do not indicate such meal preferences to their kitchen, hence they don't try to adjust. Or perhaps when the crew report this preference, the kitchen simply ignore them except its religious reasons. 2 Likes |

DaminiteHood014: You don't have to be defensive of how you are seen, addressed, referenced and related to/with if you portray yourself well. People address you the way they see you, if you portray yourself as a good person, they see you that way and if it is the other way round, they see you the same. There is no faking it or something, the true person that you are will surely come to the limelight one day both locally and internationally. Only people who are of shady characters that need to proof themselves when accused of who or what they are not. There is nothing to defend in what the air hostess said, she only said what she feels and if Nigerians have not been disturbing her or her colleagues with the issue of beef and coke, she wouldn't have said what she said. She might be joking about it, we all joke about so many things in this country ranging from tribe, to religion and so on. I don't see how what she said is any different. Nigeria is seen as one of the most corrupt nations in the world, do you defend that by saying it's a lie? Or you let your being a Nigerian influence your judgement? You have to learn to come out clean in any situation. Don't let your tribe, religion or your relationship with people influence the way you act, that is one of the major issues affecting this country. People go into government for there own political gains, politicians do the "chop make I chop syndrome" The facts are there and you don't have to defend it, just come clean. If Nigeria is being accused of any thing which I know it is obviously going to be true, we don't need to go all defensive, we can only change gradually till all the bad eggs among us are filtered. Do you watch Channels Television at all? There is a programme Channels Television normally do, it is called TRACKA. In this programme, you get to know how millions and billions are assigned to projects in communities yet nothing is being done, no project no money, some projects left uncompleted, some has not started at all, what do you call that? Do you defend that when it gets to the international scene? Will you say it is a lie when the evidence are there because you are a Nigerian? Not to talk of the various crime perpetrated by Nigerians both home and abroad. Come on bro be realistic. An example of this is when the former prime minister of the United Kingdom David Cameron said Nigeria is a fantastically corrupt nation, did Buhari defend that statement? No because he knows it is the truth. Buhari only told Cameron to help him get those stolen money our politicians have taken to the UK. You have to learn to call a spade a spade, say things the way they are, and that is it. I understand that some people still find fault in you even when you are good, what you do is to ignore them, they are inconsequential to your being because a larger percentage of people see you as a good person and that's all that matter. Now that's how to act. If you want to be seen as a good person in international scenes, you behave good yourself. We need to start changing our orientation about so many things especially when it comes to relating with ourselves and our counterparts in other countries. Change begins with me, change begins with you. |

So what if she's racist? Are Nigerians not tribalist? Why complain of oyinbo people when black men do much worse to themselves... What she said, a Yoruba stewardess might say about Igbos. Or Igbo complain about Hausa. Or Itshekiri about Urhobo, Or Ekiti against Ondo. All I glean from the video is she likes BBC news and can't wait to turn on the telly when she gets to the hotel. But this English accent sha... funny to hear 1 Like |

sod09: No. What she's was saying is Nigerians request a particular food option- beef, which usually gets finished before they get to the aisles at the back. Most still insist on having Beef. If they've noticed this about their passengers coming to Nigeria, why not make more beef packs of food available? Why the moaning? Can someone not request for what they like again especially when you offer it? 3 Likes |
