These idiots would have you believe the rest of the world is a utopia. One of my closest friends is Nigerian and I studied the country intensively in Grad school, surely sexism, racism, colourism, bad diets, inter-gender issues, obesity, bad cultural traits, and xenophobia (akata? looking down on other types of African people) are all non-existent in Nigeria. This idiot will not be missed, good riddance.
My criticism is not of Nigeria, but of people, from anywhere, like this who feel the need to bash America, as if we're pining for their presence or acceptance here. I have people in SE Nigeria, I can't imagine visiting or living there and coming back and bashing them for having the nerve to be different (culturally) from what I know here in America or lying and acting like these social issues (racism, sexism, colorism, xenophobia) are specific to their country, when they're rampant worldwide.
