A US freelance writer /journalist who is a half-Nigerian, Imade Nibokun went on a full online rant in talking about Nigerian men who blame her for not knowing her Nigerian father whom she said abandoned her...She also took a swipe at Nigerian fathers whom she called crappy. She took to her twitter handle to make her mind known. See below;
I specialize in investigative reportage across several subject matter and sectors but mainly focus on metro events and investigation. Do leave your thoughts and opinion on my reports to let me know what you think about them. Thank you

But seriously some people are too nosy and it's pretty annoying. Some men are not worth looking for or even associated with and that's the bitter truth. Not all grown ups will go about looking for a coward that abandoned them when they needed him most. Thnx dad for being ever present in the lives of ur children, through thick and thin u were there, I remember how many times u starved urself to ensure ur children get the best of education, u deprived urself loads of basic things to see ur children become successful, u're indeed a father and ur footstep I intend to follow. May u continue to rest in peace dad
Life na jeje so just try to take am softly

This girl Imade na noise maker, why so bitter, there are millions of people out there who don't know their fathers, some even do but dad doesn't give a hoot about them, be grateful you have a mum who was there for you. You ain't the first and you won't be the last. In the first place, must you tell everyone you meet that you're Nigerian? It's automatic for someone to want to know your background when you go ahead and tell them you're Nigerian since they are Nigerian too.

Ur names tell it all that you are from Edo state, so my dear you can't say the old man wasn't there for like ur mum told, how come your two names are deep benin (Edo) old names. Maybe something happened try to find out from your mum, best of luck.

Thats what your mama told you but are you sure? One sided story from a lot of loose women who cannot even identify or find men that impregnated them, often times they just tell the children stories to cover up, I witnessed a lot like that when I was schooling abroad, some of these ladies na one night stand from club, some are irresponsible and cannot even keep a relationship talkless of a marriage, some just frustrate the men out of their lives and go collecting money from the state as single parent but when the children start asking questions they just feed them with lies.

i understand your feelings imade Nibokun. some men called fathers are not responsible likewise some women too. it depends on which side of the coin turns in your case

Well lmade Nibokun do you no the meaning of your names no I wish your mother told you the real story between her and your father because if your father was not there when you were born how comes your both names are deep Benin (Edo) names well in another way no matter what your mother did to your father he would have still try his best to also be around you not by staying with your mother but by coming to see you from time to time I'm sorry about that because some men are also heartless but not all
