The attention of some well meaning Nigerians, including myself have been drawn to a video reportedly made by popular American rapper of Dominican descent, Belcalis Martenis Almanzar, known as Cardi B.

In this video, she utters a quite interesting statement which is callously interpreted by Nigerians who are hell-bent on diminishing what is left of their already low self worth.

Cardi B's statement was clearly "No lie, this place looks DR" (paraphrased) and not "No light, this place looks like DR". There's absolutely no way she would degrade her father's country and her host.

But of course, Nigerians don't think before acting. They swallowed everything 'hook, line, sinker' and began embarassing themselves on the Internet space. What you post on the Internet would always be used against you WHEN or IF you travel out. And if you're looked upon as a piece of trash, don't play the racism card. Politicians don't hustle abroad like you & I, eventually you bear the brunt of your tweets and posts about your country.
