Nigerians have blasted one of world's most popular news channel, CNN, over a photo they posted about how Nigeria will look like in 2050.

Few hours ago, CNN Africa took to their Twitter page and posted the above photo asking if this is how Lagos will look like in 2050. The photo was later shared alongside an article detailing the perceived marginalization of residents of the state who live in Shanties.
 Many Nigerians who didn't bother to read the article felt insulted that the international media organization actually feels that Lagos could one day look like that.
 
Below are mixed reactions and comments we culled from Twitter;

Why are we stressing ourselves unnecessarily cos of these white diseases people?  Right from day one of independent they never see anything good about the BLACK NATIONS.
They predicted that Nigeria will collapse in year 2015 but God proved them wrong. They used all their Tactics and they failed...... I haven't no time to waste on them.
