Some Nigerians have done some nasty stuff abroad that have dented Nigeria's image.

Among them include


1. Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab who detonated a bomb in an airplane over Detroit. He is popularly referred to as the "Underwear Bomber", and serving life jail in the US https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umar_Farouk_Abdulmutallab

2. 77 Igbo Yahoo boys arrested by FBI

3. Igbo boys killed in different countries for drug

4. Two Yoruba boys involved in murdering people in the UK due to religion https://www.cnn.com/2013/12/19/world/europe/uk-soldier-killing-profiles/index.html

5. 23 Yorubas in death row in Saudi Arabia

6. Yoruba boy kidnapping an American girl, killing her and burning her corpse

7. TV Documentaries of Edo girls being trafficked to Europe and doing prostitution there

In your opinion, which of these (or other not listed here) represents the greatest source of embarrassment that Nigerians abroad ever received?

For me, its number 1 and nothing else comes close. That year, the US media milked it well, and I was called someone from a terrorist country a million times by my colleagues.

For me, it is 1 and 6. I have watched those documentaries and they are gross.

Ok
Definitely # 1.

When asked where are you from? Whenever I'm asked where I'm from? My chest just start beating...pound, pound, pound, my face will turn red. Then I remember to say Biafra. They smile back! They ask, where is that at? Somewhere next to Ghana or Cameroon. They say oh, okay. They ask again, Is it by any chance next to Nigeria? I say "God forbid."

Their kangaroo courts and farcical judicial system!
