Yes, that is the way to go about it...shame on him for real.

You people make me laff with your responses.
We have not yet started reaping the fruits of our much laboured for negative reputation.
Wetin Oprah talk now wey no be true?
Naijaman no fit trust im own brother, talkless of foreigners trusting naijaman.
The whole world know that the most educated elites of our society will sell their country for a few dollars in a flash.
Our leaders are nothing but cheap crooks who rip off their own people on the regular.So...
Abeg make una coole down dey look.
We never see anything yet.

Abeg, na how all these things wey you talk now take translate to 'All Nigerians are corrupt?' Would you be willing to name one country where there is no corruption? US, UK, France, Germany? which of dem corruption no dey? Abi because dem dey find creative names to call am? Shey na for Nigeria fraud originate? Or you think the 'educated elites' in other societies wont sell thier countries if they could get away with it?

Abeg, if you get better defense for anybody making that kind of statement (I no believe say Oprah, go talk something like that sha), let's hear it because this one wey you talk here no be am.

Not all Niegerians are corrupt, we all know that, but still we Nigerians bring all the insults on ourselves, because of greed, wanting to make it in one day, going to show off on things we have and do not have, envy, wanting to live a standard life without working hard for it, and untill our government stops disgracing themselves at every border, we are all going to live with this stigma.

I think she is too smart to make such generalization. For now I reserve my comment until we get to the truth of this matter.

Exactly my tots, I watched the show and the woman did not say anything of such....Naija and their speculations sha....dem don label am goat already, o ga o
