Some of Nigerians are shame to say they're from Nigeria bcos of correction and bad name Nigeria has turned to.. If at all Nigeria is like London not even like England in general am sure he will agree in whatever nationality you give him... Britain is corrected than Nigeria..

Please take it easy with him…..
….he was probably misunderstood.

++

He said I am proud to be Nigerian….

“I suppose I was trying to give an honest answer about where I was born, and so, I said London, which is where I was born.
“And to me, it was a surprising reaction that people then concluded that I didn’t identify as Nigerian.
“Of course, I am Nigerian-British, but if they ask me where I was born, I can’t say Enugu, because I wasn’t born in Enugu, but, it doesn’t mean that I don’t identify as Nigerian.

well i still dont understand why we are all ranting here.....the guy has clearified his statement...but meanwhile based on the comments on this post u will find dat certin ppl feel bekoz nigeria lacks basic amenities so she should not be identified with...i tink there are countries nigeria is doin far better dan and yet her citizens still identify with her....we should learn to hold ours even wen tinz are not going well....there was massive corruption and theft in the U.S Economy, but dey chose to give it a christian name not to make it look ugly, dey called it "Global Economic Crisis"....there  were many cases of terrorism by their own citizens, where a man takes up fire arms and kills scores of children in schools, and dey chose to say the man had mental issues....dis ppl knw how to call u useless and u accept it fast and den call d same tin rosey names in their own parlance and u kall dem heros...NAIJA TINK....God bless NAIJA

Lupita actually described herself HALF MEXICAN and HALF KENYAN and thiis has upset some KENYANS? If Chiwetel had commited murder like the TWO MICHEALS (who killed Rigby) and who were BOTH BORN in Nigeria - would we SEE him  as a NIGERIAN!

I DOUBT IT!
