i am a Nigerian, i feel proud to be one and a honest one at that. i know the general perspective of Nigeria being held all over the world as a corrupt and scamming nation which i do not contest. but my problem is, is it possible for all 150 million Nigerians to be a scamer? take for instance the issue of Mutallab the December 25 attemtpted suicide plane bomber, he left Nigeria when he was 12 years and was recruited into terrorist organization while he was studying in uk and he has no link with any organization in Nigeria, despite this the United state government was quick to enlist Nigeria in a Terrorist blacklist. every nation has its own share of criminality so why is nigeria is always single out and feared the most?

Hi....babbyk
I appreciate you to be proud to be a Nigerian. This is one of the basic quality of a good citizen. Corruption, scams, Terrorism and all Global issues and it is useless to blame some selected nations. It is quite natural that the people of the underdeveloped and developing countries will be attracted to Terrorism and corruption. But most of these countries are suffering from the corruption and terrorism than any other developed country. I dont know whether I am right wrong to say that some of organisations in the underdeveloped or developing countries will be engaged in the Terrorism. On the other side in the Developed countries themselves are organised Terrorist. These Terrorist have the support of all world bodis like U.N, NATO etc.... We can see many examples for this from the past history.
