US Blasts Mariah Carey For Performing In Nigeria: Calling Us A Country Known For 'Terror, Death And
Seems the US media are not comfortable with Mariah Carey performing at a country they described as the "center of the world’s email financial crimes".
A popular news site, Radar Online, had this to say on the performance;
Mariah Carey proudly posted a pic of herself in a slinky yellow dress and wrote, “Backstage in Nigeria” on Saturday.
But maybe the songbird should have done some homework before agreeing to the gig?
Her show was at Access Bank’s Christmas Party which was also a farewell bash for the bank’s managing director.
And while Access Bank is a reputable  financial institution, should Carey have known a few basics about the  African nation before taking the paycheck?
Ironically — given that she was  performing for bankers — it seems Carey wasn’t aware Nigeria is  well-known as the center of the world’s email financial crimes! Nigeria  is even part of the name — as in “Nigerian 411 Scams.”
Nigeria is also, according to the United Nations, the hub of human trafficking as “a source, destination and transit country.
AND, just for good measure, there are  mass killings going on in two Nigerian states right now, and according  to Human Rights Watch, the violence is being ignored by federal  authorities.
Do you think this assessment of Nigeria is right? Do you have any  issues with the US star performing for Access Bank? Be sure to share  your thoughts in the comments section.
