Nice find, Jordan. I like how Professor Akunyili “demands an unconditional apology.” That’s just rich.

All this 4!( crap has really hurt NIgeria in the west. So no, its not a joke. How is it so hard to see that all the defamation is really hurtful to the country success. Alot of those letters dont actually come from NIgeria. alot come from eastern europe.

Did you also know the 66% of cyber crime is from the united states. So while the west ruin Nigerias reputation going on about it all the time, The united states is robbing people blind.

thats my 2 cents. A little consideration from the white man.

Especially when another commercial in this same campaign uses the line “You can’t believe everything you read on the Internet. That’s how World War I got started.”

Granted the comment wasn’t all that fair – I’ve had those silly e-mails from various countries as it were, but yes the majority are from people in “Nigeria”, and who says the people who write them are from/in Nigeria anyway?
But at the same time… it’s a passing comment that I would have not really noticed if i wasn’t looking out particularly for that phrase. It doesn’t outright say anything awful. Who believes what adverts say completely anyway?

Having done legitimate business with a Nigerian enterprise, I do realize how badly Nigeria's name has been spoilt all these years making it extremely difficult for legitimate businesses to grow outside from that country. I think the end to this has to start from somewhere, and probably this is it.. .-= Anand Srinivasan´s last blog ..Why Business Professionals Use Social Media =-.

It looks like something that would come from a government rep too full of himself…so I don’t think it’s a stunt. It is pretty funny though.
