Kenyanlady its not by force you post on this thread, there was no need for you to post a picture of a crack head/jail bird black american woman on this thread that hasn't washed her hair in days or even weeks(no normal black woman would walk out of the house with her hair like that). Why you are in a nigeriian forum in the first place is beyond me. I knew you were a weirdo but left you alone but Im glad ,Tpia, nolongthing, and etc have proven the type of person you are on your previous comments you posted on other threads, WEIRDO

[b]"Ghanaian Actress Kafui Danku has threatened NigeriaFilm.com reporter Mustapha Ayinde aka Attractive over her Upper Part Exposure.

According to Kafui who emailed the website administrator to say that those pictures were stolen from her private phone at the time she wasn’t aware of it.

“The first time I saw the pictures on the website I asked him to take it off before other websites in Ghana pick it up, but he failed to do that in time so now that the pictures are everywhere I will suggest to your website to release an official apology letter or I will take my personal decision on your reporter, since none of you can do this thing to your sister, and allowing ignorant commentators to insult me on the various website” Kafui said.
.
Research we did on Kafui Danku, stated that she is a quite type and does not talk on issue concerning the industry so for her to come out with this voice shows the pain she feels.

Our advice to her is that, she should always know the work of journalist, "[/b]

I RECOMMEND EVERYBODY HERE ON THIS THREAD TO WATCH "BLACK IN LATIN AMERICA" because the issues expressed here on this thread by africans in Africa is far minuet compared to what goes on to blacks in Latin America:

Haiti/Dominica Republic

Black africans should be happy that at least we are not second class citizens(except south africa to a extent) in our own lands because of our color is black and we are negroid. At least our black pride intertwined with our culture is strong with africans compared to other parts of the world. You would never see a Mercy Johnson in a Black Hollywood movie or showcased or even shown to the public her presence in Black Latin american or Caribbean communities but in Africa we see many like her shown, so please people slow your role. Remember we are africans and be grateful to God that we don't deal with some of the issues that effect some black Diasporians today. We have other issues to deal with.

my solution I have always promised myself is when I have kids this is going to be trained into their heads, this is how we start to fight this nonsense by training the next generation of black africans ( your kids, nieces, nephews, grandchildren, and etc) against it not start hurling insults it doesn't solve anything for blacks, especially africans. Other races instill their racial pride into their children, blacks should start doing the same it's that simple

After watching this video I have more respect for Black Caribbeans/ Black Latin americans & I just thank God I'm Nigerian(Yoruba), Black, & african

"Not real hair, you hijacked your own thread!!!!"

yes it is, that is Erykah badu when she had her natural hair out many years ago

@Good girl

[b]"True. It's a bit on the extreme with Nigerians. I've asked this before on other threads; what obsession do you Nigerians have with people's skin complexions? Am an African and I come from a society where we have people of all skin tones just like Nigerians, but for people to just sit down and waste away talking about why dark skin is better than light skin, why does Peter Okoye prefer light-skinned females, celebrities who bleach, etc is a bit too much on this forum if you ask me. This also includes the Nigerians that I have interacted with over the years, including some who are my friends! Nigerians are so colour-struck it's not amusing. Almost all the comparisons made on this forum are motivated by skin tone; Beyonce vs Kelly Rowland, Omotola vs Genevieve, Tonto Dike vs Mercy Johnson, Halle Berry vs Genevieve, Gabrielle Union vs Halle Berry, Nadia Buari vs Jackie Appiah. All these comparisons are deliberate attempts by insecure individuals to pitch one skin tone against another and to kill the confidence of people of a certain skin tone.

Everything on this forum is just about skin tone. Even the literature/books boards are not spared. A poster may just comment on how talented and intelligent Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is and then follows a comment like ". . . I also like the fact that she has a beautiful skin tone and she's not even light-skinned but successful. . . .". I mean WTF? Must it keep popping up on every thread? Same with the political board. Something is wrong somewhere I swear. . . .!! Angry

@ topic, I have always looooooved Jill Scott. I so totally love her look below."[/b]

Yeah jill scott is beautiful her look fits her

when it comes to what you said about complexion well I don't think it is just Nigerians, other blacks of african cultures(more with french speaking african countries) do it and it's even worse with black diasporians(go and check out what they say in Africans american forums and you'll think this site is a picnic) from my experience though blacks are not the only ones that do it Indians and Arabs also have these issues, they are just aren't vocal as much about it BUT the group that has tooken it to the extreme is actually Latin America, you need to see what they do to black Hispanics & Black Brazilians(you'll be thanking God you are African); to a extent that some black Hispanics don't even like being called black. I have many indian female friends and I hear this from them as well. people just need to accept that this complexion issue is a result of what colonization has done to us. We are human and not immune to negative effects of colonization, some places in the world dealt with it better then others

Here are videos of what Blacks are going through in Latin America, which is minor in Africa. So I thank God it isn't as strong in Africa compared to other parts of the world BUT I won't excuse that it exist in Africa though so to me Africans need to start training their children about these issues so these negative effects of colonization can slowly start to be non-existent in african communities:
